There are one of three outcomes as I see it:
1) HLM launches and nothing changes with SPR, HLM's development outpaces SPR.
2) HLM launches, georgem ramps up SPR development in response, begins releasing production software publicly.
3) HLM fails miserably, whether not launching or for whatever technical blunder/failure, SPR continues.
Previous to this announcement there has been a single state as an SPR investor for a very long time now:
1) Keep waiting for the boy-who-cried-stay-tuned to meet any of the expectations that he himself repeatedly set.
All I can say is, as an investor and long-term holder of SPR, I'm overjoyed that
something is happening. I've seen coins101 around long enough to know it's not all smoke and mirrors. So, as a lowly cockroach investor I couldn't be happier - options, opportunity, optimism - what a breath of fresh air. SPR investors might once again be able to be appreciated because of HLM, whether it fails or thrives. There is not a single person who has been holding this whole time that will come out worse off if HLM launches. The only guy who hates this idea is the same guy who refers to investors as cockroaches, who ignores substantial donations by long-time supporters and writes them off as enemies of the project, who dodges questions if he doesn't deem you worthy enough of a response because he doesn't know your username. (Apparently decentralizing my online identity is not covered under "everything"
)
I don't expect georgem to miraculously ramp up SPR development because, frankly, I don't think he has the back-end development chops and has too much pride to seek assistance or cooperation in realizing his vision. I hope HLM launches, I expect it to quickly outpace SPR in tangible development, and I hope georgem makes a boatload of money from coins101's work putting it all together. Then I can finally stop checking in on what has seemingly become nothing more than a lonely hobbyist's need for attention.
I don't understand why people needs to use new accounts while making statements, it's pretty evident that this post is from a person deeply involved in the HLM development.
Please keep it civil, there's no reason to insult or make accusations, but there are plenty to cohoperate for a common interest. (I'm not referring to this post, but in general)
This technology has potential, and it's very nice to see such transparency from a coin developer, but let's be honest:
Would you work, any of you, for the development of a project without being paid, or without having a deep interest in it due the absence, in this case, of coin holdings?
As an investor I could evaluate the support of the dev if I would like to see this coin appreciate, due the release of new features.
He owes me nothing, and I cannot be in the position of requiring him nothing at all, simply because I'm not paying him.
As in all the other things in life, if you want something you need to pay for it.
The donors could eventually possess the right to make statements about the development phase of this coin, not the rest of Us.
As I said before I am looking forward to support this coin directly, in a couple of months, because there are plenty of things to consider that honestly I don't find elsewhere.
Before the swap of HLM there will be for sure a massive spike due the SPR acquisition process, also considering the upcoming software updates of the SPR wallet.
Let's cohoperate guys, there's a bright, common, future
Thanks
Unfortunately, I don't know enough linux to make it work. I was able to import the tar file and can't get farther then that. LOL - I am such a noob. I will wait for your tutorial.
