A little pre-emptive announcement:
A group of Bitcointalk users have modified (or perhaps completely invented) some IRC chat logs and screenshots in order to spread FUD about the Blocknet and XC.
It's incredibly easy to create a "record" of any purported conversation you want and present it as fact.
However such logs are not provably truthful, and in this case are false and clearly are posted with malicious intent.
Dan's identity is
public and he has staked his personal reputation upon his public conduct and upon XC.
Dan has delivered - and overdelivered - on XC's tech for five months without fault.
XC's timeline is testament to this.
And if Dan delivers (notably in the absence of any pumps on XC), then he is not out to scam people out of their money.
Pertaining to some equally vacuous FUD claims:
XC's premine was
never dumped, but has been
spent entirely on development.
Together with
Dan's personal funds, it has funded XC's development.
On a final note, the collaborative spirit that inspired the Blocknet has led Dan to collaborate on a number of projects.
He has
openly stated in advance his collaboration (on a freelance basis) with every coin that he has worked with.
This has been done candidly and Dan has nothing to hide regarding his collaborations.
(In fact, there's reason to be proud of the big-mindedness of rising above petty competition to benefit crypto as a whole.)
Would be greatly appreciated 
why take so long?
