Bram Cohen accuses Brian Freeman of "taking down" chia (he is terrified)

full context

Brian Freeman if you are reading this can you PLEASE stop taking down chia. A lot of us have bags and hardware that has been a significant loss!

In-between running a law practice I wave a wand of magical power to make the XCH price go down. I sold it all at $28 and my powers have made it reach now as low as $12.

I am so terrified!

That was a strange attack from Bram. I don’t care about Chia - I’m out. I always said I would never farm at a loss at that line in the sand was $27. Sold all my hardware and will never look back. He lied, they lied: they sold the pre-farm and never IPOed. The price death spiral I feared and predicted has arrived.

I don’t need to take the project down Bram – your poor tokenomics design will do it all by itself.

They seemed to have some disdain for the farmers as far back as I can remember. They could have kissed our butts a little more, WE were their biggest customers!

But it also appears to be twitter/X style banter, we probably shouldn’t read too much into it in any case.

Between you and Poor Investor, I really enjoyed the ride! If it hasn’t been said, good luck on your future projects.

Maybe someone post on reddit for more visibility that things have gotten this unhinged.

He’s totally lost it, perhaps Brian should sue for deformation of character.

Anyway, in a weeks time my farm will be turned off, and I’ll start selling the drives. I’ve had enough of this nonsense.

Thank you Ronski and everyone who sees me for who I really am - a regular guy who made a terrible choice to ever be a Chia farmer. I choose to fail forward and learn from this costly mistake. 1) be careful who you trust, 2) be careful and critical about tokenomics out of the gate, 3) don’t let a hype bug turn you into a gambler.

It looks like the dumped pre-farm is now part of the circulating supply in coinmarketcap. That is around 19% of current marketcap. Does not seem like “careful selling” or what ever the heck that even means. Talking about who is taking down the price :D. But I understand. Chia has not managed to gain enough status. And their funding went belly up. Hopefully they can recover from this. It is what it is…

It’s like saying “I hope they stop bleeding” while they continue to cut themselves. Their entire business plan went off the rails from the v.2 white paper and no one knows what the new plan even is.

I am willing to wager that if anyone posts this to Reddit, a moderator will take it down.

I wish everybody the best in their ventures. Try to rise above any negativity.

Yeah posting on reddit is a crapshoot

Arguably the CTO and creator of Chia is the most on-topic subject of Chia possible but anything negative will get removed for “inflamatory” comments (even if the post is a full context screenshot w/ no commentary)

I sold aswel. My only regret is not selling sooner. I have no purpose for my hdds so I will sell as soon as I farm the coins. Maybe someone here can make a script that uses trade ogre’s api to auto sell as soon as your wallet gets coins and then set it to list ~ 5% lower than CMC price listing so a arb bot will buy them.

Trade Ogres api is S / god tier, a lot of places like moneroocean and zergpool run entire pools from the api. Basically each block the pool wins that is not monero gets insta-sold and then it buys monero and sends you the monero relative to your contribution. So you are always mining the most profitable coin and get paid out in whatever. Someone (not me) could do this and then farmers would be able to auto-sell.
