thanks man, hope I can bring a little peace and confidence to the thread.

We'll see how it goes, happy to let things move organically to a level that works for everyone involved. At the moment daily is probably worthwhile because there is a lot of development going on and things are moving pretty fast. As features have been released and are stable then I am sure we will be able to back off a little from that and make it a little slower, the development cycle will dictate how much info we need to give you and how regularly.

The main thing is that the investors and community feel that they are 'in the loop' as to what is going on behind the scenes. We want people to be able to understand just how much is going into this project. I won't call it a coin but a project because there are many different elements to it.

OK,

so a quick update as to how we are going to improve communication going forwards.

The strength of the community is crucial to the success of any coin. Confidence of the market, investors and crypto at large is one of the things that binds a coin and makes it valuable, as well as the features and functionality.

bitsta has been working hard on this coin since inception, but no one can be an island. A few of the investors, believers and holders of this coin have been communicating with the dev over how we can build not only the coin itself but the community around it.

With this in mind I have taken over as community manager for this coin, as I have been here since the start and think its a great project.

I will be having daily meetings with bitsta about progress of all aspects of the project. Rootcoin, RootEx and Bitkey.

The outcome of those meetings will be fed back into the community on a daily basis, there may be the odd day I can't post but on the whole I will be here every day.

I will do my utmost to assuage any concerns, answer any queries and provide info. Any questions from the community I am happy to feed back into my meetings with bitsta and then provide answers back when I can.

I hope you can all trust me when I say that this coin is in no way a scam or there is a greedy dev, very little was raised in the ICO, compared to projects with much less to offer and bitsta has been working non stop on it. I agree his communication may not have been the best, but he's a developer not a PR guy or a communications manager. bitsta also recognises this, which is why he has reached out to the community to build a team that can make the project stronger.


Welcome to the future of encrypted crypto transactions.

OK,


we've been talking a lot in IRC. Bitsta is really busy working on development and finds it hard to keep the community updated with progress and answer queries and develop at the same time. We are working on a plan to keep everyone more in the loop as to what is happening and when to leave him free to do the important stuff --- ie code the coin.

Watch this space for exciting updates.

Your doing a great job other than communication skills, when will it be ready to release etc, would do nicely if told by a comm manager

hey studio1one,

i was here yesterday and i am here now.
i am preparing a public announcement.
what frustrates me is the fact that most of the users here are good enough for whining, fudding, etc.
instead of providing any kind of support. i had a community manager. i even paid him/her.
finally she/he left. if you have any suggestion for a community-manager for ROOT i am always
open for discussions.

Seriously dude, this is not ok.

You put a road map of the 28th, then didn't tell people it wouldn't be the 28th. On IRC yesterday you said

bitsta> hey people
lol
no panic
just got home
i was on the way all weekend
We are waiting u 
let me sort stuff out and check all mails. i ll be here all day
wow u here!
hey Ostabiz
no panic here man, just waiting for comms on status
i needed some days off
alright
No problems 
thanks for sticking with me folks
okay. give me a few.
i ll head over to office in 1-2h
cool man
 
and from then i ll be here non-stop


Then disappeared and never responded or came back again.

It is now the 30th and we still have no idea of the updated schedule.

It is your communication that is that makes people type things like this. Ie -- there is none, and when you say there will be it doesn't happen.

As you know I bought a lot at IPO, I've bought more since and mined a lot. I hold loads of this coin and haven't dumped any, all in all I probably have around 8% of total. I have been polite, friendly and patient about it but I am getting frustrated with the communication about delivery, not about the delays. I've spent years project managing large development projects, I know that delays happen -- like all the time but when they do really good communication with people about them is crucial to peoples confidence.

I'm sorry man, I really don't want to be a fudder, its not in my nature at all but I have to communicate my frustration at the lack of information flow.

If you don't have the time or inclination have you considered appointing a community manager that you trust to manage communications for you?

haha,a very very greedy dev

we re all here to make money. thats the main (only) reason for all of you beeing here.
and it s your/our right. i had to take the weekend off. sorry if anybody of you feels underprivileged
or so.
 
P.S. i am not messing around with ROOT/bitkey. it s quite the opposite....

people like you destroy markets and coins. not devs.
i am not greedy. i don't need to be greedy.....
well anyway. good luck.

Let's not get too high up on our horse now. Can you honestly say that you are not here to MAKE MONEY??

I've been in this since the start, bought coins as soon as they hit an exchange and mined through the whole POW period.

I'm going to continue holding and waiting, but I can't say I'm not dissapointed.

What really gets me is not the delays, it is the lack of communication from Bitsta.

If you are reading this Bitsta, please dude just be more communicative with more regular updates. ESPECIALLY if there is going to be a delay!? You could at least give us a sneak preview of Bitkey, some code, a video of the alpha in testing, anything to show the community that this is more than just an empty promise.

I believe that Bitkey is coming, and I don't mind waiting either, but your communication lacks professionalism and you are causing uneccessary fear and panic by just missing deadline with no explanation or forewarning. Going on holiday just before a release date doesn't exactly look good either..

I don't mean to FUD, I'm just dissapointed and I hope you will hear my valid concerns and learn from them is all.

Good luck and hope to see Bitkey soon.

dude i am not fu**** anybody.

most of you guys are f*** yourself.

Evidence?
