The hate of those people here who are left behind because of their own ignorance is overflowing. These guys should learn from their own mistake and move on. You are dealing with cryptocurrencies and in any coin (even at the stable coins), there will always be swaps/updates to improve the project itself and it is your own responsibility to keep track of it. The team already announced it in different channels 2 weeks ago. Don't be ignorant of these updates and be very vigilant on the upcoming ones.
Though am not affected, am sometimes bewildered by the sheep mindset that i constantly encounter in this sphere. The mindset where the dev is considered godly and incapable of mistake.
So, lets say i buy a stock, bond etc, am i expected to check on it every week to make sure my hard earned money hasn't suddenly vanished due to action taken by the platform admin. Shit lets say i have some money in my saving bank account, according to your admonition, i should check that acct every week to make sure the bank hasn't ran away with my money.
For those of you that will claim that this is tech and its quite different from a fiat transaction, then lets say that i decide to take a well deserved two months vacation, am i expected to constantly check on my crypto investment rather than enjoying my vacation cos there is a possibility that my hard earned money will dissipate due to action taken by the dev. Keep in mind my intention is not to be a daily trader. While at it, i should also constantly call all the parties involved in my other traditional investment to make sure they haven't decided to null my investment while i was gone for two months.
A lot of your complain about mass adoption but are unwilling to make demands that will actually encourage mass adoption. Even the proprietary apps/software tech etcetra that you paid for and use in your daily life do not suddenly stop working if its not updated to the latest firmware. For those where update is mandatory, you are given several months to a yr to comply with the update.
So, basically all this boil down to is admins need to understand that this investments are not play money, this is not a game, btc has real value now, so when you plan a swap, you should provide an extended amount of time (not weeks but several months) to make sure every participant has the time to claim their hard earned money.
Emphasis on hard earned money. It doesn't take a genius to keep two chains going. Even if the pre chain is deactivated from the exchange, it doesn't take a lot of hard work to keep it active and maintaining an open channel on the new chain to allow this ppl to claim their hard earned money that they decided to invest in your project. Simple as that. You guys can proceed with the hate but i have spoken my mind.
I absolutely agree with your point of view buddy! Here, in crypto, many scammers or developers with not very clean hands and conscience use such techniques. And then they tell you that this is your personal problem. This market is still free from government agencies and other regulators. There are many advantages in this, but in this case it is a fat minus for investors. I did not suffer in this project, because I almost immediately saw that this was a fraud in many ways. I wrote several times here about this.
I regret that you have lost your money here, but take this experience into service. Now almost all coins with MN and high ROI are scam!
