Devs, are you reading here the posts from us users/investors? I don't think so...
..snip..
they are. They spend more time in telegram and reddit than on bitcointalk, but they occasionally check this site. I have access to reddit but not to telegram, so when I see something that I feel they should know about, I link to the bitcointalk post in a post on reddit and ask someone with access to telegram there to check with the devs. For the BTX asic issue, they are aware of the situation (from which I imply that they are looking into it).

in which one of them with direct access to the developers replies, and in which I also reference this : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.48329439
