Weiss Ratings Discussion Thread

it's behind a pay wall

what a crock of shit

"only $468 and you can see our ratings!"

What we do know (copy paste):

Bitcoin (rated C+) gets excellent scores for security and widespread adoption. But it is encountering major network bottlenecks, causing delays and high transactions costs. Despite intense ongoing efforts that are achieving some initial success, Bitcoin has no immediate mechanism for promptly upgrading its software code.
Ethereum (B), the second most widely adopted cryptocurrency, benefits from more readily upgradable technology and better speed, despite some bottlenecks.
Novacoin (D) and SaluS (D) are weak in terms of both technological innovation and adoption.
Steem (B-) enjoys a relatively good balance of moderate strength in nearly all the key factors considered along with a social network feature.

some serious jewage here

TRX was not listed even after being promised days before. Why not now?

RISE with "D", ETP "D+"? Somebody wants to accumulate before moon mission. I dont know what's worse, fake report made by hackers or real report made by jews.

...

They gave shitcoins a higher rating than Bitcoin. Anyone who actually takes this thing seriously is braindead

thats what i was thinking. they STATED ON WEBSITE that they would give rating...i think theres alot of fakes out...

In fairness pretty much everything got a C.

How the fuck is STEEM rated so high? It sounds like the worst shitcoin ever

They said they would rate cryptocurrencies not social media headed ponzu schemes

The Weiss don't know shit about crypto. Same as anyone else.

steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@emantas/new-weiss-cryptocurrency-ratings-can-you-believe-it

this. they're explanantion of BTC's rating sounded like bcash propaganda. same old outdated meme FUD. this is basically the Weiss company pivoting from a POS wall st ratings agency to a new PBC-type pump group newletter

>According to the announcement, the crypto ratings will be released on January 24th and include Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Bitcoin Cash, Cardano, NEM, Litecoin, Stellar, EOS, IOTA, Dash, NEO, TRON, Monero, Bitcoin Gold, and many others.

eat shit.

This
It seems to be written by a NEET who's been reading leddit for 1 week and thinks they know the crypto market

>How the fuck is STEEM rated so high? It sounds like the worst shitcoin ever
LOL its the only thing currently being used. Ffs you faggots probably view crypto related news/blogs in Steemit.

>How about EOS
EOS has the largest warchest in crypto. They have more than 1.6 billion VC funding for EOS projects. Search Novograts EOS.

STEEM actually works really well.

these ratings are a huge fuck you to the crypto community
it adds even more fear, uncertainty and doubt
when a rating agency can't even distinguish DOGE from XLM, it means we're in deep shit
seriously, I think the most rational explanation is that the whole thing is a huge boomer troll on crypto

anyway I've been buying low selling high 3 times already since yesterday on XLM
0. people start speculating about Weiss ratings [buy]
1. people expect A rating XLM shoots up [sell]
2. Weiss rating comes out, XLM dives [buy at bottom]
3. People realize Weiss is shit [sell when ?]

roadmap tommorow and fairx beta in a week or two

i'm holding until after those

STEEM actually has a working product - one which is used fairly commonly unlike 95% of the shit that makes up the crypto rankings.

>People realize Weiss is shit
Realised that from the moment they were mentioned

pajeet list. who the fuck made this list? absolutely terrible

Dogecoin and Ripple got the same C grade.
Take that as you will.

seriously, tho, how do you even publish a list
clearly done on Word template or some shit
you distribute letters without a single explanation
DOGE = XLM
unknown shitcoins pop up
known shitcoins ignored (think TRX, highest volume almost daily on binance for a long time)
> it might be time to accept we have been boomer trolled super hard here, anons.

I don't get this roadmap hype and how the main PoV seems to be to hold until after.

What if the roadmap says FairX release is later than what was thought until now?
Then XLM will take a major hit..

Shouldn't we sell right before the roadmap hits? Isn't the current price already with people taking the upcoming roadmap in mind?

I remember one of the Weiss guys saying that they had a couple A-rated coins on the list. Was the quote fake? Did they change their mind?

ICX rating is D?

The ratings aren't a constant, they can and will change. It's not inconceivable that some changed since that interview.

its pretty inconceivable that they didnt even include them on the list though, right?

they are going to fuck up even the coins they are shilling with their retarded ratings

it's shooting up hard on binance in any event
fucking cobra snake waking up from pajeet flute charmer, user.

hmm interesting. there were talking of server hijack.
but... done by a STEEM/EOS bag holder, then ?
seems unlikely.

the first ever crypto rating ever getting hacked instantly to take money on a pdf and giving fake info is like a crack addict relapsing. Just sad.

I'm glad they rated doge C. Makes it obvious even to the dumbest of brainlets that Weiss is Independent. Unbiased. Bullshit. Kikes.

Weiss is probably serious. Team is Pajeet + ((Scammer)). They know their stuff since crypto is basically 50% pajeet 50% scams

wow.. really everything has to be blamed on "kikes", uh ?
seriously, grow out of this schizoid shit...
these guys are either boomer retards or boomer trolls
end of fucking story, bitch

Boomers worship jews though. Based newfag

No, I don't use Steemit. Why do they need a crypto token?

How is this not a glorified loyalty token? How is this in any way as interesting as many of the other cryptos with working products?

Another newfag who doesn't know anything about the history of crypto and is shocked that one of the most liquid, stable coins with an extremely active community is rated "average". It's a totally accurate rating for DOGE you dumb brainlet.

They pulled this PR stunt to shill their "crypto trading" scam. I'm laughing so hard my gut is hurting. I knew that anyone praising a shitcoin can't be trusted, and I was right.

investorresources.weissratings.com/special-report/currency-trading-made-easy

...

As a way to incentivize and reimburse content creation? Why does anything need a token?

It's not a loyalty token, steemit is a centralized website but the steem blockchain itself is decentralized, you can build your own frontend for it if you want.

>investorresources.weissratings.com/special-report/currency-trading-made-easy

That's about forex you utter brainlet.

Remember guys, be greedy when others are fearful There's a lot of fear in this thread, people are upset that Weiss is rightfully calling out their shitcoins.

It's literally a memecoin. Rating it C along with most of the other coins shows they have no clue of what they're rating.

>No, I don't use Steemit. Why do they need a crypto token?

Because it has its own blockchain dumbass. decentralized networks cant work without incentives.

This isnt like ERC20 tokens where they can just use ETH instead.

Just goes to show how you faggots dont know anything about the coins Weiss rated as good.

you could, but it could also pump. We only know there will be a roadmap, but not what the roadmap entails.

I'm holding because I trust the dev team and Jed McCaleb to make a god tier distributed network

ETH, BAT, and XMR are the only projects you should be holding.

Go ahead, keep holding that coin with no real product and a questionable use case, and see what happens this year.

************THE CRYPTO SHITLIST***************
ICX-
No hospital or bank needs to actually use ICX for anything. Read this faggots... steemit.com/icon/@roosterred/icon-icx-ico-a-promising-coin-with-major-flaws

REQ-
This dumbass "concept" coin will be completely obsolete by the time they even have a working product thanks to Venmo, Quickbooks, and every other service that business actually use.

FUN-
Have fun dealing with regulation in two industries morons.
Gambling = stupid
Buying a shitcoin = stupid
FUN = shitcoin for gambling
Buying FUN = stupid ^ 2

TRX-
Anything that dumb sluts and fools on Twitter are buying is an instant pump and dump scheme. I'd rather own Bitconnect.

LTC-
This coin is literally only useful for buying on Coinbase and sending to exchanges so you can buy other better coins. Its creator told you he dumped all of his bags and yet you still "HODL" this? Moron.

BTC-
This year we will watch the stupid fucking mammoth die from its own inertia and pointlessness. Steam dropped it, the Bitcoin conference dropped it, everyone is dropping it. When Bovada drops this shit or accepts a better coin, BTC will have literally zero use cases.

XRP- settlement coins are dumb fucking long term investments.

Everything else besides ETH, BAT, and XMR- Meh. Just a big fucking meh project that probably doesn't even have a working product or real use case.

Wise up faggots- this is infinitely more valuable than and Weiss rating.

for all I know Weiss is a shitty subpar ratings agency looking for web traffic/media attention
> based in florida,
> their website looks like pure shit
> nobody knows them
> no wikipedia
> probably tied to some big porn studio

OK, so according to schizoid rambling, these guys are supposed to be dominating the world ?
give me a fucking break, they're losers
people will never give a shit about what they say starting from today

PBC 2.0.

Shit scam by a shit rating agency looking to scam dumb fuckers out of their money. Unless they post their ratings openly on their site, there's no reason to trust them or give a shit what they are.

kek, i did the same, but was in STEEM a bit too long to get back into XLM it the bottom. made a bit with STEEM, but wasn't worth it, should have immediately bought XLM after the drop.

Steem is a "working product" in a very pajeet way (it doesn't need to be a cryptocurrency). A real example of a working product is Monero, which was rated lower than your shitty pajeet coin.

"Literally" a memecoin, so what? Bitcoin is a memecoin(in the sense that it's popularity is based purely on empty hype and not technology) and got a C+. The ratings are clearly not based purely on technology, but popularity, stability and history. Doge ticks all of these boxes.

If he gave it an A I'd agree but C (which in this case is basically market average) is perfectly appropriate.

uhh...nobody said they were dominating the world? That was you.

but back the point, they are the first "authority" to give crypto any rating what so ever, so ya...it does matter. Lots of press leading to this also

Well thanks for that correction, don't really care though. I just assumed they were the same as other esteemed kosher rating agencies.

As for them dominating the world, no not really. A lot of them just like to help each other out, a lot. In certain industries if you know what I mean.

I was on Steem before it launched and then forgot about it for a year. My Steem wallet managed to seed $7k from it which I've now turned into $40k and expect to clear $100k within the next couple months.

Its definitely shit with all the comments and posts just aiming to get paid (and misunderstanding the model clearly since they spam shit), but its the kind of shit crypto needs to really eat the world.

Let me narrow it down even further, XMR is the only crypto you should be holding. Both ethereum and bat are novelty gimmicks.

>it doesn't need to be a cryptocurrency

Ok retard do you have a better solution for incentivizing content creation on a decentralized, blockchain based platform? You have no fucking idea what you're talking about, Monero is a risky investment because the odds of a government crackdown are much higher than anything else, that's why it got a C.

BTC is actually used for transactions, and alts have the goal of being used for transactions. Doge has the goal of being a meme, and being used as a joke.

>Steem is a "working product" in a very pajeet way (it doesn't need to be a cryptocurrency). A real example of a working product is Monero, which was rated lower than your shitty pajeet coin.
Lol a content site like Steemit doesnt need to be decentralized? It prevents centralized entities from taking down a controversial topic.

>A real example of a working product is Monero, which was rated lower than your shitty pajeet coin.
Lol monero is overhyped. Up to now you cant use it that much since most stores that accept crypto dont use Monero.

...

Doge was started as a joke, their ceo left the project and they have no endgoal. It shouldn't even be fucking rated

>BTC is actually used for transactions

All crypto are "used for transactions" jesus fucking christ, the more I see the average intelligence of the people criticizing Weiss, the more I trust their ratings.

Doge has the most trading pairs of any coin after BTC, ETH, and LTC. It is "used for transactions" relatively widely compared to most coins.

That one much better.

You don't need a decentralized platform for a bunch of pajeets to write low quality shill articles. If you want to use a government friendly currency just use fiat, dipshit.

>Most valuable comment is ignored.

Fuck all of you pathetic specimens.

>ETH a novelty
>half of the crypto ecosystem is built on its blockchain
>smart contracts, dApps being built for legacy industries and enterprise solutions
>novelty

>If you want to use a government friendly currency just use fiat, dipshit

Clearly you fucking don't, that's the whole point of a decentralized, censorship-resistant content platform. Jesus fucking christ you are dumb.

I meant being used for transactions with a purpose other than trading for other coins. Or to be used for trading for a real world purpose etcetc. Stop being a stuck up faggot.

>being this unaware of the tribe

found the shabbos goy

His point has been made a billion times in this thread and others, he's an XLM bagholder who can't understand why it got the same rating as DOGE. Nothing special.

I was replying to your comment about Monero you dumb shit.

Yep. They’re all rated equal to DOGE. This list is dumpster tier.

>I meant being used for transactions with a purpose other than trading for other coins

Actual payments are a fucking fraction of BTC's usage you ignorant retard. It's used primarily for trading just like DOGE.

lol they're not an authority on anything. Nobody ever heard of them before this.

enjoy your pajeet ratings

Fuck those whole weiss bullcrap.

speak for yourself.

Well then you're even more retarded. A government crackdown on the purchase of anonymity coins will kill Monero overnight, and is relatively likely. This is simply a fact, it has nothing to do with what "I want", which is what you default to because you're emotionally attached to XMR.

I fucking know but it didnt come into existance for the purpose of trading for other cryptos now did it? Since they didnt exist and all. You're calling me a retard but you can't even understand my simple point.

No I understand your point. It's you who fails to understand that why a coin came into existence is totally fucking irrelevant to the Weiss ratings.

If you actually think there will be a government crackdown targeted towards a specific coin, you are clinically retarded. Please end your life.

You are wayyyyy too attached to XMR. Stop acting like a cult member. The fact that you think XMR > ETH just goes to show how stupid you are.

>If you actually think there will be a government crackdown targeted towards a specific coin,

I clearly don't think that though, and if you actually read the post you're replying to you'd know that.

a specific subset of coins, same shit

Hehehe

lmao they clearly aren't the "same shit" you intellectually dishonest little weasel, fuck off.
