I cannot announce anything at this stage but I expect to be able to very soon.
Finally, BLOCK's price is tied intrinsically to the use of the DX. It's fundamentally not dependent on speculators on Polo. While I value Polo as a gateway, it's not part of our business model.
End of statement.
Two things I love in this "statement."
1. Says "I cannot announce anything" then immediately proceeds to announce an upcoming announcement "very soon."
2. The sniffy put down of "speculators" who were dumb enough to become bagholding investors in Dan's failed "business model."
To think XC was once a rival for dash is terrible when you view the MC now. The XC holders (of which i have a tiny amount of) must feel gross disappointment at this stage.
ATCsecure needs to stop being scared of this board just because he got a hard time before. Man up and get back here and regroup you've stuck around long enough to prove it was not a total scam so come back on the board and get discussion and interest picking up here.
What do cockroaches do when you shine a light on them? That's right, they scurry away to hide in some dark place.
That's why this scam hides in places where people can't ask important questions, nor express dissenting, ie non-cheerleading, opinions.
Polo should have never listed the XC and Blocknet scams to begin with. Doing so brings the exchange additional technical risk from bad code and legal risk from facilitating the scam(s).
Give them a chance at the least to come back here and make good.
XC looks like a scam to me right now because it did not follow its original roadmap. I do not believe it is okay to remove things from a roadmap and add them to another project. Also shutting the thread and just focusing only on block
HOWEVER... if they came back and worked on the project of XC and atleast showed they did not just dump this project and put all that funding raised from XC into block then that would be much better than what situation we have now. I would rather see them given opportunity to redeem this one.
BLOCK - I have not seen much about it on here so to me (and most people that dont have time for every single slack of every single project they invest) it looks a bit slow or deserted although yes it seems a lot of work has been happening on block if a DX is almost ready.
I sold most of both of these (AT QUITE A LOSS ) but would buy back in if I saw some reason to.
The fact atcsecure is still here and not totally vanished with the block funding tells me he is not all bad and I think was just scared off by dash troll. Man up to these people. If you have good intentions. Lay out these intentions and proof that you are pressing forward with them.
Trolls with unfounded claims from the dash camp have no power here if they have no facts to back them up.
atcsecure you are the captain. Come here on this board and man the ship. Others will support you if there is good reason too. Make sure you can show what you have done and where the block funding is and where it went.
xc - well this is the main issue. I as a xc holder (small one now) feel that xc community got a rough deal. I mean that collapsed. Fair enough you needed to concentrate on block but closing the xc thread was a HUGE mistake. XC needs some attention and ongoing development discussion.
As for the other guy the spokesman on the thread. NO NO NO. He is a master of English and and novice handling people.
ATCsecure you need to get involved on this board too. Don't let the community feel separated from the captain, and don't be scared to bring trolls to heal with forcing them to discuss facts only regarding the project. Personal discussion and making things personal has no place on this board.
If the spokesman is to keep his position he needs to dial it down a notch and get more friendly and less curt with people. He's not a bad guy I'm sure but comes over as rude a lot of the time.
I used to like the XC community and it was shocking how it was handled. It made it look like a scam even though a lot of xc moved into block it does not mean xc should have been pretty much cancelled.
Trolls can not be just deleted unless repeating nonsense that has been already disproven. You need to bring them to discussing facts only about the project currently if they are not willing to do that they are then deleted. If you have good intentions and have not been scamming XC or block holders you will be vindicated here and both projects will move forwards.
I would like to hear a clear plan for blocknet and XC a clear road map that proves both projects are going forward and to see atcsecure here posting about the projects not endlessly answering the same troll questions and bullshit. Answer them once to a reasonable level of satisfaction then thats enough.
I know blocknet required funding but really it came at too much of a cost to XC.
XC should be given some tlc now and when that is really happening I think you will see a return in this community of people that were here before.
I see a few of them still posting around places on here.
Slack is ok for tech discussion only. I belong to many communities on here. I tell them all the same thing forget that for anything other than almost private tech chat. The rest on the boards. You want to maintain and grow a community this board is the place. Of course you need a good project to get behind too.
Cheap entry here for a lot of people to get back into block and xc.
If ATCsecure comes back here and gets involved puts out a decent roadmap with realistic time table then I would buy some at these prices and I'm sure others would too.
You must never close down threads ever again it just sends such a bad message to people.
Just admit it you got sucked into blocknet development and forgot all about XC supporters. Fine come back and redeem yourself. You can not succeed with blocknet whilst XC is still so utterly neglected it will simply leave a bad taste. You will be in the situation dash is in. However good they could make their project nobody wants to support something that exists from ripping others off. Blocknets future is in your hands XC and the old XC supporters need to be looked after.
XC was meant to be an anon coin. How is that anon tech really when matched against decent anon coins there are loads now...shadow, monero, dark, zcash zcoin . Let's be serious is XC's anon worth people looking into? If not let's clone zcash or another anon tech thats worth having.
I would support these projects but they must be honest and transparent and no more running off and hiding away that is bullshit and cost a lot of people a fortune.
