You clearly don't get it do you. You are obviously have no knowledge about economics or business economics and obviously never had to run a company while doing R&D. To give you a hint - you are saying that the profits of the product after R&D is finished will make sure that the company runs and don't close doors while you are still doing R&D and building the product. Do you get it now or do I have to type it slower? Do you realize that the betting services alone of Minerals is not strong enough to make the coin survive until it is finished and adopted by the wider public? Alternative means of creating demand and volume is urgently required to prevent the coin from dying before the betting services can be rolled out and adopted. Shame on you as you obviously want the coin which has an excellent product and future to die prematurely.
Oh sure, I clearly "are have no knowledge" about econ. Although I have enough IQ points left to see that adding anon to the coin as a means of creating demand is no improvement whatsoever - do I have to explain this to you or does your attention span reach enough beyond trolling BCT threads and Bittrex price charts to realize that
the vast majority altcoins have some form of anon too, and so there will be precisely 0 added demand for this coin? Sure, it'll be used as an excuse for another quick PnD, I'll give you that.
Your little R&D analogy is nice and all except for the fact that it makes no sense whatsoever. Profit? What profit? The dev's profit? You can't equate a cryptocurrency to a company. A company exists to make profit. A currency does not; it is a means of exchange. Why do I even have to explain this? And you're the one telling me I know nothing? The dev is not living off Minerals to survive. Thus he has much more leeway (= your precious R&D) than a company does. Again, what is really killing this coin is disillusioned people who were hoping to make a quick profit and instead actually have to wait a bit (OMG WTF OH NOES MUH $$$) because setting up a coin with a proper purpose takes time and effort.
