It did lose it's luster a bit after the accusations, I know a few people who have completely sold off their QRL. I'll still hold, this is a legit project. Some people should of took advantage of the price. I think this ledger will revolutionize crypto. Just wait and HODL.
Could someone please enlighten me on what was the shocks/accusation that happened in this project?
The shock was with the former community manager Jomari Peterson who started spreading FUD about the project, because the founders didn't hand over the control of the project to him and didn't agree to he's growing demands for he's compensation etc. basicly he's greed led to the situation where the team had no choice but to remove him.
He was no key member of the project. The development team (coders) has been very hard at work as they demonstrated when they pushed the codebase to github and everyone can participate in the testnet.
QRL is on schedule even after Jomari started to damage the project and slowed down the progress with internal dispute.
