If a mere fork of Monero can supposedly cause Monero traders to be exposed, then that right there is a flaw worth addressing in a fork of Monero or another privacy focused cryptocurrency, if not MoneroV if MoneroV is what FUDers say MoneroV is.
Some questions for people spreading MoneroV FUD.
· Do you have any proof that MoneroV developers are going to get all of the private keys sent to them?
· Why not wait and analyze the code before claiming MoneroV? You don't need to claim the airdrop on that day all at once.
· In order to avoid exposure, why can't entire funds from Monero be transfered to another wallet? Or...
· Why can't entire funds from Monero be converted to another cryptocurrency like Litecoin and then transfered back into another Monero wallet?
· Is all this FUD just 4D chess trying to lower the confidence of Monero, hoping it'll fall before the fork so that you can capitalize on the MoneroV airdrop by buying more Monero cheaply? If so, I hope you people would do a better job at spreading FUD so that I can cash in too.
· Where was the FUD for past Monero forks; Sumokoin and Aeon
This article by Jamie Holmes is incredible. So much work and presentation but it's also, to me, nothing. I've tried looking on twitter, reddit and steem and haven't found anything to substantiate any of the FUD concerning MoneroV.

And what is a FUD story without contributing some of my own FUD?
I'm not a huge fan of forks. To make a fork is less work and dedication than to do make something from scratch that accomplishes better solutions of the same problems. On the flip side someone could say that building from scratch is impractical and I suppose that's true, but there have been so many forks of so many cryptocurrencies and a majority of them go nowhere. MoneroV is going to do better than Sumokoin and Aeon perhaps due to just being similarly named. Nevertheless, this ever growing list of privacy coins is exciting and hopefully sometime there will be the fool proof standard bearer. I suppose I'm offering FUC instead of FUD but nevertheless.

Bitcoin implementing their own anonymity features in future releases isn't going to mean much when likely the private transaction feature won't be default. Bitcoin will forever remain an unsafe choice in transactions where maximum anonymity is mission critical.
