As I understand you developing EVM comfitable blockchain where users will be able to swap apps from Ethereum blockchain to your blockchain? The same things making Pchain and Tomochain as I know  Huh

Hi,

I think you might have misunderstood a bit. Metronome is not a new blockchain, but rides ontop of EVMs. It is not app swapping, it's not an app platform. MET (the coin itself) is what is ported between chains. Metronome is a new cryptocurrency that is designed to endure through its principle design goals of self-governance (without undue founder influence), reliability (with a highly predictable supply and issuance schedule), and portability (so that MET owners can move their MET to compatible blockchains for whatever reason they desire).

I highly encourage you to read the Owner's Manual - there's an entire section devoted to motivations: https://github.com/autonomoussoftware/documentation/blob/master/owners_manual/owners_manual.md

Theoretically that all sounds so great, BUT:
DO THE FOUNDERS REALLY CARE ABOUT METRONOME?!

Look at Jeff's twitter account, he does not even mention that he works at MET:
Husband, father, builder, Co-founder @BloqInc, @SpaceChain & others, proud son of a USMC F-4 pilot.

Matthew cares about "Bloq, Inc., Tally Capital, Chamber of Digital Commerce" according to his linkedin profile.

The ICO was that often delayed that it was just painful..


One year ago or a bit longer ago when I heard from MTN, I clearly wanted to be a part of community, however, it really seems that its a side-side-side project from some big faces in crypto space.

That should not be hard critics, its just the situation how it feels

Hi,

Thanks for the comment. There are a few things to consider here, but obviously the team does care about Metronome and expanding it. Massive amounts of work went into building and launching Metronome so that it functioned correctly upon launch as an autonomous cryptocurrency -- hence the timeline considerations to allow for proper auditing.

No one can really work at MET since it's an autonomous cryptocurrency, not a company.

The team and the rest of the community is working hard on continuing to expand Metronome organically, since like I mentioned above there isn't a foundation or company - just a protocol.

That said, the community resources page should be up soon, the validator docs and code should be published soon, and there will be Metronome team members in Singapore at the Binance conference, if you're there I encourage you to come talk to us in the meeting room there.

Thanks, hope all is well,

it was silly idea and silly auction from start and you know first chain they doing swap to after many month delay? ethereum classic a now proved flawed chain with doublespend!

metronome now far down against what nearly all paid in silly ico auction and super lowest against eth or btc since start. soon this die only good thing is developers wont get near cashout they imagined.  they should have launched in 2017 they too late now hope this die very soon haha

ok thanks for the reply. ETC seems an odd choice for first chain hop thing but fair enough it's a start.

I understand the retention for creating the currency and ok yes, they didn't get instant BTC or ETH via an ICO like most new coins. Just feel that 20% is a bit steep but hey that's just an opinion and like arseholes we all have one Smiley

More publicity from the development team would be my number one recommendation, seems a very quiet thread here. I'll check back next spring and see what progress has been made vis-a-vis cross chain, good luck.

why is chain-hop capability going to be added to ETC instead of ETH?  ETC is has-been chain with no value or long term future. Makes no sense.

Also why do developers have so many of these coins in terms of %? I read documents and yes there's a lock-up period but fact is they still get them in a fairly short timeframe. 20% is super greedy especially when this currency isn't exactly marketed or known about by many.

I have a five figure sum to invest and considered MET but although I like the concept, the execution, distribution and post-launch lack of awareness and low volumes has put me off.

Bitcoin II launches in a few weeks and just can't take the risk of this one over something like that, but I hope this one succeeds also.



Hi,


Thanks for the comment.


So Metronome was actually initially launched on ETH, ETC is just the first port -- an owner won't need to move their MET to the ETC set of contracts if they don't want to.


You are correct that there is a three year lock up on the one-time Author's Retention. The author's retention was for launching a fully functional cryptocurrency, and authors receive none of the proceeds from any of the auctions, ISA or DSL.


Hope all is well,

Do I understand correctly that the cross-chain ETC was transferred to Q1 2019?

You are correct - Contract deployment on Ethereum Classic was updated to Q1, 2019. You can read about that and a few other updates in the September update for Metronome: https://medium.com/@MetronomeToken/metronome-update-september-2018-d26ede7ad189

Thanks, hope all is well,
