Well it looks like after I poked the bear, he finally has time to spend on these projects. But watch-out though because he doesn't respond to
extortion attempts.
I guess me speaking to his inadequacies in focus, proved to be the way to light a fire under him to finally pick up the pieces of his broken projects.
I'm not sticking up for Defaced (like I need to), but I think you shouldn't totally blame him for the lack of direction of this project. Remember the word decentralised
I've been contributing to the mining of this coin from pretty much the beginning, but have no technical knowledge to add to the development. If I had the knowledge, time and ingenuity maybe I'd have made an app and marketed it to 3rd world countries, to 'Aid' them.
I'd ask why there's been a lack of support from the greater community? In my opinion and I'm partly to blame being a member, it wasn't pushed hard enough in the early times, so it's no wonder more didn't take up mining/trading, even though it's ASIC free.
I do hope there's a lifeline with the lucrii token and it can be developed and enhanced and expanded going forward, with a more solid community.
See this is where the misunderstandings begin. First of all, to my knowledge, no one put a gun to Franko's head saying you must build coin(s) or else. It was of his own doing. This is where my point lies, if someone finds it so important to create a coin rather than spend effort on a coin that already exists and has a steady development, then as a developer you should shoulder all of the work. Don't play the nonsensical part of gee nobody helped me code, nobody but me worked for years. This logic is bullshit, especially since it takes more than code for a coin to continue.
I said it before and I will say it again. Nobody owes a developer shit. If he was so worried about getting paid there were numerous other projects that were employing people and paying them in
BTC. But why did he not just join those projects, idk, perhaps he wanted to be at the top of his own pyramid?
Then he ran into walls of coding problems, likely he couldn't find any code (open source or otherwise) that would solve his problems. And rather than create his own solutions he waits for others.
When you don't actually create, but instead clone (all of his projects have been cloned). It is difficult to make new stuff.
Soon you will discover that most coins that have been cloned offer nothing new but a name change. Franko, Aiden, and Expanse were all "find and replace" re-codes.
