Ok, it's in general this way. A bear market that seems to be here to stay.
The point being is: there won't be any trade in a barely alive coin.
One year and a half, give or take a month, and we don't even have a new wallet only the old 1.3 that takes forever to load, don't expect any trade anytime soon under these circumstances.
It was my understanding you needed the "cash" dumping the coin you still hold in order to "pay the bills" and go on with the project, it doesn't take much to realize this way is not going to work. I don't know your agenda at this point, and I don't understand it, if you plan to do ALL the work and then think about what to do with the market, then the coins you'll have will be just "barely alive".
That's your "stuck".
I won't accept the word STUCK - PERIOD ...
Your mentality is the SAME mentality that is what Crypto has become. The words you USE is the thinking you have, which translates to the actions you make. This is what Crypto has become, and THE reason why it is struggling in a social and economic sense, in todays society. Sure it is gaining some ground, but the opposition to Crypto in general IS because of your mentality. STOP using words like 'stuck', 'investor' and 'ROI' and START using words that best describe what the entire Crypto community actually IS. START changing the way you THINK by changing the WORDS you use. Seriously mate, it is simply THIS that makes this industry such a volatile and condescending arena to work in.
WHO CARES if it takes a year or two? Seriously! What business has EVER made a billion dollars in a few months AND stuck around? Which one? Amazon? MicroSoft? IBM? Show me one?
SWEEP will be SWEEP no matter what. Whether you or I mine it, or use it, or allow it to die. Trade or no trade, use or no use, development or no development. We have an end goal. Most don't. We have a plan. Most have 'roadmaps' that never see the light of day. We continue to use OUR OWN FUNDS (as little as they are). Most use EVERYONE ELSE'S MONEY and squander it all for their own benefit, losing it all on houses, cars, and a rich lifestyle with little to NO development whatsoever.
What you don't seem to see here is that is it NOT about the coin. None of it is. It is about what can be built with the coin/project. The backend that will last through this rubbish regarding bull and bear, and misconception as to what these coins really are about. The controlling powers have WON when you have YOUR mentality, especially when all you consider is the coin being the 'asset' rather than the 'currency' like it was designed to be from the beginning at day dot satoshi!
BTW - there is NO argument here. We are not DUMPING anything. We have put it up for sale. That is not a DUMP. Another word your mentality misconstrues, and misunderstands the meaning of. We are STILL mining our coins. STILL! To this very second I type this. It is this mentality that NO ONE can argue with because in your mind, the words you use have made it up for you.
We will continue, even if you can't see it, or we decide to move into another direction. We WILL continue to do what we can - PERIOD! You won't need to understand our 'agenda' because you could never appreciate any agenda unless it benefited your pocket. It doesn't. Hasn't done so for a while now, which is WHY you 'continue' to oppose what we do, and the time taken. That is your prerogative. Seriously, I can not convince you otherwise, nor do I want to. We will be here whether you are or not. We will choose to do what needs to be done in order to reach the end goal, whether you choose to be around or not.
It is not that I personally don't 'care' about you or your 'financial expedience from our hard work'. It is about the stability of the VEHICLE that will get us ALL there, not just you. That vehicle is CWI the business. NOT just SWEEP the coin!
ALL expenses come from MY pocket. ALL of it. So unless you can contribute to the upkeep of not only the business AND the development, NO ONE, including you, has the right (legal or otherwise) to push and shove like you are now. I have said it many times before and will continue to do so, if you cannot put your money where your mouth is, don't speak. When an 'investor' actually exists, they will be funding the company and have a 'real' stake in the business. Otherwise, all you do is GAMBLE on the hope that whatever you buy (our coins or others), will eventually increase in price. Gamble away mate. Your decisions are based on your thinking, and your thinking seems to be solely based on your pocket.
ALL unfortunately like the entire CryptoIndustry has become. Pity!
BTW - What would you suggest is a good way to move forward? Seriously.

Ok you just went full Bruno Ganz in there .
I will answer you with a series of questions: are we going to see the finished product before our old age?
Yes it's remarkable you're committed to this plan but are you sure that you're not going to fall behind? I mean by the pace you're working, faster typers are going to do better than you and before you do.
Are you sure it's not all about money? Crypto-currency, we're not painting the Gioconda or the Sistine Chapel that will be done when they're done.
That being said NO ONE and I mean NO ONE has ever delivered the final/ultimate/top/whatever product never ever to be remodelled and refined. As I recall the last who tried were the Duke Nukem team...
And I am very sorry to say this to you: if all expenses comes from your pocket, then you should create these currencies for you only.
It's all interconnected here, exchange, money, funding, time ... by the time you'll get the product done, crypto-world will be on the next step. And we won't even have a new wallet.
If you don't agree with all the above, at least try to understand that no one would buy (not even for 1 satoshi) a coin which wallet takes a month to synch and 1 hour to start.
Another issue is about Zapple, how many people are going to trade 2000 SWEEP for 1 sat, if they must be processed into KYC?
When I pointed out ("asked" is too strong) we needed an exchange I meant something KYC free. Or "on the fly" like flyp.me. I don't know if there are legal issues behind it.
Ah, and that was months ago.
You make some very valid points there ...
So your suggestions on many of these things I have pointed out (apart from the financial side - as I have a good reason why I brought that up which I will discuss later), is to continue, more or less, releasing updates? So do you think it is a wise move to continue with the release of the wallets, even though these coins may just be replaced by CoinX when it is finalized?
BTW - SWEEP used to sync in under two hours, and since the massive TOR blocking issues in regulatory bodies have taken stage, the 'privacy' systems are being systematically attacked by the powers (Governments, Banks to name a couple), and even though it was our plan to remove TOR from the beginning due to the massive issues we faced initially (which failed when we did try), consensus was simple a full rebase. This was going to happen in order after OZC, and will still, though Cryptopia hacking/issues and a few small bugs have held up the OZC upgrade system. It may make sense to move to SWEEP (or GRN) for this upgrade and establish the rebase from there. Currently though, we are getting the networks as stable as we can at the moment. As a side note, these WERE all my coins when I acquired them. They are supported by the company (ChainWorks Industries Pty Ltd) and theTEAM, but truly have all the funding from one source. Me. What would I be if I was to just let it all go? Still the CEO, and founder of CWI? Yes! But not a very good one at that as far as I can tell, if all I did was abandon the coins, even though they are just ONE of SEVEN arms of the business. So we will look at this with fresh eyes, and certainly willing to look at logical thoughts and ideas like some of the above you have made.
One of which is not only the exchange, but also the non-KYC exchange of coins. This sort of thing has been planned for some time, though not via an exchange, but via the CoinX wallet itself. this way we can focus on one coin and codebase for the master system of transaction, and the other codebase for all the other coins. Time is all we have on this, as we do not have a paid workforce doing all this, nor do we have a flood of volunteers to help, just the few we have currently. Our ideas are quite unique, but VERY few (if any) developers are willing to volunteer their coding experience to get it all established so that we CAN all get paid via other means, not necessarily Crypto. Which is why I always mention that what we do is not about money, it is for the betterment of Crypto, and money becomes the consequence of that. Again though, the few people we have working on the projects, are the few that have been with me for some time now, and the newest doing what they can, when they can. This is what makes the CWI as special (and yes - as slow) as we are.
What would it take to add our coins to flyp.me anyway?
Sleep now for me, but I will be back here with a refreshed outlook on what could be done, should be done, and will be done. If any of the above sounds like an attack - it isn't. Especially if it sounds like I am upset in any way, as I am not. TheTEAM we have I am very happy to be a part of, and even though these people need to earn an income outside of CWI as well, work well, and honestly, with a respect that is not found often here in Crypto. Later this year, the funding will be evident, and we will have full time members/employees - all this WITHOUT external funding from an ICO or Angel investor. All CWI through and through.
Also - the plan for SWEEP is when we hardfork it, it will be PoW/PoS based still, but no TOR and will namechange to SSC (with the same ticker - SCC), with respect to it's genesis. Being a 'sweep/gambling/gaming' coins also, we are setting up a reallife trial of a CWI-Syndicate utilizing SWEEP initially as the trial coin. I am being vague with this at the moment as we work out the legalities, but when it is all done, a post with the details will prevail, hopefully in the coming days.
