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.
Dear Fellow $Pink Knights,
Many within the $Pink Arena feel, and may rightfully feel so, that Pinkcoin is a community and built off community strength; I quite frankly totally disagree with that notion. This is just my personal philosophy mind you, but I can not express how strongly I believe that Communities are damaging collectives that encourage within people a lost feeling of entitlement; as if they deserve to receive and keep others hard earned labor and credentials without any honest commitments of their own efforts towards the communities long term goals. I believe Pinkcoin’s true strength is not in a strength of community, but in a strength of $PINK CITIZENSHIP. Unlike in communes, in a CITIZENRY, every citizen participates in the PROGRESS of the group as a whole; not merely depending on LEADERS, or in Crypto-Land, depending on Developers, to organize a community and make every decision.
Within a citizenship there is a healthy competition as to who can do the entire group the most good and be rightfully recognized for it. Unfortunately within a commune, the leader provides the only sources of good news, and the community just buys more coins hoping they wont get burned. Another benefit of a Citizenry is that if a leader leaves the group another citizen with the best and honest credentials takes their place naturally; while in a commune when the leader leaves the group then, subsequently, the commune group fights internally which leads to further chaos.
Another point, as is demonstrated clearly by the history of man-kind, when communities sit back and only depend on their leaders for progress a few things will always happen; One, the leaders offer only enough to keep the community obedient to them leading to the commune group losing its vigilance, and consequently leading towards little overall progress being made other than in the leaders’ skills of deceiving towards their own ends. Two, the community will then slowly wither away and die collectively as they have all subordinately chosen. In essence, if you are asking for something from the developers but have offered little of value in return to the group as whole, you are asking and trusting in communist ideology, which history clearly has shown is a path taken with little success.
If a group collectively chooses to be organized into a community for financial security, prospects of large returns, or just for the general benefit of mankind, the reasons for them forming into that group in the first place becomes virtually irrelevant as their new found leaders then become predisposed to adapt new goals for the group to follow obediently while the community accepts out of fear of their investments crashing. If a group collectively chooses to be organized as a citizenship, then every individual has taken a personal responsibly in the successes or failures of their financial security, their earning of large returns, or their providing of benefits to the betterment of man-kind.
Instead of having to trust in leaders to establish honest goals, become a citizen leader and provide the most beneficial effort you can for the citizenship; to be the vessel that is steering the boat. When every citizen is their own leader and not dependent on a community leader there is much more peace of mind to go all around. With Pink Poker as our starting sword and The Twitter Exchange/Tip bot as our starting shield, as $Pink Citizens, there is no excuse for sitting back believing falsely the work of others will provide for you a free ride to success. We $Pink Citizens can easily begin commencement of our battle RIGHT NOW while new Paypal tech is being developed behind the scenes. Anyways that’s just my two cents, and the following is my personal philosophy for you as my fellow $Pink citizens to do with as you will.

Pinkcoin Citizens Do NOT do the following:
Do NOT encourage collectivism from a community to donate to you for a sketchy cause, then months later troll and spread FUD on the forum
Do NOT announce to the world that your buying in on $Pink again at 60-70 sats, only to bash the developers for giving you a X2 return in a matter of weeks
Do NOT pretend to be Chris Hansen on “To Catch a Predator” and distract the Citizenry from focusing on grasping new opportunities.
Do NOT pretend to have credential to lead when your only definitive contribution is investing money as a means to turn the forum into an episode of Gossip Girl.
Eternal Blessings,
