Getting really sick of the nastiness in this thread. There is a reason most discussion has moved elsewhere.
I purchased a BC Card, and I have donated to the WallSt promotion. I have also donated to the PR Firm fund.
I would really prefer the backbiting and garbage here just stopped. If you can't get on board and work harmoniously (and this is the buzzword) then just check yourself out.
I've been very impressed by IE's work in the past, but the nastiness here is completely ridiculous. We have donation addresses for BOTH initiatives, and clearly people can vote with their feet. This goes for other posters undermining his initiatives.
What the hell do you think you are achieving by kicking each other in the shins?
Pull your fucking heads in, all of you. If you want more donations for worthwhile initiatives, you aren't going to get more of mine by bitching about the others ideas.
Set your negative campaigning aside, and sell on the merits.
I honestly can't believe this needs to be said.
Okay, this all needs to be broken down so people understand what is going on. Some people in multipool/IRC chat have personally decided to take over and start foundation, others like Iconic have marketed this coin and are being shut out of the game. Foundation is nothing more than centralizing control, so certain people can promote there agenda in IRC, while others are not allowed to play. So, if everyone wants to play nice again, NO FOUNDATION. Stop this bs right in it's tracks. The people in IRC own the twitter, facebook and social media, cause they set it up first. So they are self appointed. Do we want people in charge, like worldcoin was, that make decisions without letting others play?
I think this talk of foundation, and more ability to take control of social media by more than one person are in order. If there is to be a foundation, it needs to be done very, very carefully. Cause once this is set up, good luck getting rid of anyone that is representing the coin now, cause they will not remove themselves. It's undemocratic and is why foundations don't work. Also, having foundation handle needs of community, prevents talent coming here and doing things on there own. This exactly what happened at WDC, everyone was reliant on the foundation to take care of things, sitting back waiting, just to find out they were egotistical people without any plans, or marketing in place, then prices tanked.
Learn from this lesson, and realize there is absolutely those in IRC, the ones with the @ behind there names that want to run this coin, and yet talk about transparency. I want to resumes, like a job interview. Where are there skillset? What businesses have they run before.
Before giving them the keys to city hall, and running millions of dollars of investments, yes millions they are in control of being officially representing this coin, we should all think long and hard if this is way we want things. Where is the democratic process involved here, how do we remove those that can't perform? The youtube video is perfect example why I'm not impressed with smoking kids running this coin. I'd rather have businessmen with experience running things.
