Once again I would call upon the dev team to take a pause in whatever it is they are doing in the background and, numero uno, bring everything forward so the community is fully aware and encouraged by the prospects.
But, perhaps more importantly, the perception in general is that PINK has begin to stray from the initial path. I don't want to sound negative but what ever happened to the transparent pink wallets, available anywhere, any promotions going on? Owl seemed to have been bent on doing something in Canada and, as far as I know, nothing (else) has been done...
One of the (important) objectives of the original revamped Pinkcoin was to promote AND CONTRIBUTE to charities... Now that all seems a vague memory with no practical purpose of effects.
PINK has become, at least in the people's perception, quite the opposite as some vice-enabling vehicle connected directly to POKER, of all things. What does that bring to PINK exactly? Yes I know Danny is a professional poker player but any advantages at all of such connection? In what way? What was the net result of last Saturday's "tournament"? It was supposed to be a big promotional thing... and has brought the price down instead 20-30%...
PINK is also being perceived now as a seller -via auction, on occasion- of it's software to the highest bidder... for the personal benefit of it's developers, NOT the PINK project. The "good guys" do not do that, do they?
As for the unofficial Danny Johnson Show on You Tube, I hope that idea -and any future chapters- has been permanently "delayed"...
Like I said, I believe it's due time for reflection... and subsequent action.
Why are you so damn angry and negative all the time when you are posting? Come on, people have a life and doesn't need to always tell you what they are up to. I am very sure that you could write a post and tell your message without being so annoying. This is not the first time you are writing like this. Instead of being like that, consider to change the way you are writing and be positive.

I am not angry. I am a bit disappointed thouhh with the apparent new direction of PINK and that is the reason for my post. It is painfully obvious that PINK has gone, at least temporarily, in a direction quite opposite of what it was initially. Charity? When? Whrre? How much? Thst's what PINK set out to do... and, to my knowledge, NADA. The 2 million "tournament", wasnt for charity was it? Not even a portion... whats the promotional advantage of that? That's just gambling... which is quite the opposite of where PINK sef up to do. Lottrry? Also gambling. Mind you i am not opposed necessarily to change, but when chsnges mean actually leaving the original path, perhaps it od time to reflect, reevaluatr and set a new path.
A frustratdd fayolkng hss answered (NOT) without addressing any of the key questions: why are thry now sellkng for personal profit software created for the project, the pink project? Thats not being the good guys. Its either open, therefore freely available to rveryobe or PINKs only. NEVER sold (or given to friends only).
The other question: what ever happened to the transparent wallets, the other merchandise? My undrrstanding was Owl was doing some ptomotion with them in Canada.... is that done? Did it have any repercussions? Are there pictures? Any support for similar initiatives? Or is that part of the development -theres tech development and promotionsl development, both are developments- abandoned?
There's no anger, just quite relevant questions, i belueve, many pinkers will be interested in getting answers to. Others, no doubt, if disappointed by ghe new direction, would have already cashed out and left.
Without asking any questions... but perhsps quite enraged.
Been drinking barabbas?
Q: Charity? When? Whrre? How much?
A: Here:
https://fundraise.nbcf.org/fundraise?fcid=320114 and here
http://lottery.pink/ Q: The 2 million "tournament", wasnt for charity was it? Not even a portion... whats the promotional advantage of that?
A: No sir. A professional poker player Brian Pellegrino challenged Cayce, we attempted to capitalize by marketing the event. This was not initiated and/or planned by the dev team.
Q: Lottrry?
A: Gambling, yes. Also a great marketing tool that has brought in more investors than you have scared away. Oh, and it is our #1 source for raising funds for our charity
Q: why are thry now sellkng for personal profit software created for the project, the pink project?
A: We are not selling for personal profit, instead helping those whom have helped us. "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours."
Q: The other question: what ever happened to the transparent wallets, the other merchandise?
A: Some were sold, some were given away, most are still sitting in a box on the shelf.
Q: My undrrstanding was Owl was doing some ptomotion with them in Canada.... is that done?
A: Your understanding is incorrect here. 0wl bought the cards to sell and raise money for the charity. He/we have been waiting for PwP to put them up for sale. The planned Canada (Toronto) event was m_ad_max, and I don't believe this has gone any further that being a "discussion".
I assume you will request that I answer these all again in a day or 2, so I will elaborate than if necessary.
This is a bit too much, really:
1.- 9 people total have donated in over 4 months. A total of just over 600 dollars... half of which have been donated by 3 generous individuals... none of which is a dev here. Latest donation is dated over 40 days ago. Alive? Promoted? Hardly. No wonder we are now, among other things, "the poker coin".
2.- Lottery a promotion tool... ok. Biggest charity contributor? Ok. Embarrassing though for all it hss provided so dar is less than what those aforementioned donations have. Bringing in new investors? Your personal wishful thinking no doubt. Nothing substantive behind that exercise in absurdity.
3.- besides "you scratch my back and I scratch yours" being a mafia mantra (a different kind of "good guys" altogether) yes we are selling -and auctioning- software for personal profit. No ifs no buts. What does it mean in the op the line in bold red?
But we are now also it appears in the business of promoting friends' coins. Branching out indeed ...in all the wrong directions.
4.- Thank you for corroborating that no real promotion has been done and no wallets/tshirys have been distributed. It hsd been quite obvious that the focus is in a totally different direction... or lack thereoff.
5.-If the main dev as well as ghe face of PINK is involved in a poker challenge fully advertised in the official thread it IS a pinkcoin event regardless.
Anyway I just wanted to light the yellow light and suggest reflection for it is obvious the path direction and target of Pinkcoin has diverted from the original objectives. This is now the poker coin no longer the good guys (good fellas, maybe).
I see now it was already too late.
