FYI - Melissa just answered many of my questions privately, so they are still communicating even though the Telegram group is closed. Since it was a private conversation, I don't want to post it here publicly without permission. I still have concerns, but I at least wanted to mention that they are listening.
Can you ask her if you can share with us? Do you also asked her if we'll get updated weekly or every two weeks or once a month?
I did not ask how often updates would be coming, but I'll find out if it's OK for me to post her comments.
Melissa asked that I not copy/paste the conversation here because she's concerned it could lead to confusion, which would just feed the trolls.
That said, she gave me permission to answer similar questions here if I know the answer.
She seems very willing to communicate publicly in a constructive way. In my opinion, that requires that people put effort into asking good questions. If it's going to be more of the same trolling, it doesn't do anyone any good.
Beyond that, I think she prefers to answer questions privately (that's my opinion, she didn't say this). She's very accessible if you are serious about asking questions. I know it's a tough situation, but if you want more public engagement, let's try to cut down on the trolling and start being constructive.
I know this comment will get lost in all the noise, but we're at the forefront of a revolution. If we as early adopters want token investing to become more mainstream, we should do what we can to legitimize the industry. That means we have a duty to ask good questions and demand transparency in a respectful way. It also means we shouldn't be afraid to call people out when they fuck up (rather than allowing excuses and getting away with "just be patient" as a response), but it should be based on a rational argument. It's hard and it takes effort, but the experience should make you a better investor and earn you more money in the long run. /end rant/
