Oh boy. I have been heads down on some things, and look at the thread :-)
You guys have to realize that it is just me, a one man team behind this coin right now. I am the brains and the dev, but I also need cash flow to live. I was full time on crypto stuff for a bit, but its not panning out as well as I would have hoped, so I need to focus my time occasionally on making real money to pay for normal life things ;-)
No, I am not manic-depressive
I am just busy, and lately I have been doing some paid services for others to generate some revenue.
At one point in time, we had a group of people focused on marketing/graphics/etc. but even then we were unable to really rally folks to contribute. So, it falls on me to do, which is fine but as a result the time lines start to draw out. That does not mean that it is abandoned, it simply means that you have one resource filling 5 or 6 roles. We have this thread, as well as the particle forum, social media etc. The community could take advantage of those resources to promote the coin, build services around it, build media and videos, roadmap the direction the community would like to see the coin go in, etc.
I have a few more big ideas for the "PRTX" (or whatever name we go with) PoS coin, a few things that nobody has thought of doing yet, but I am sitting on it because I have noticed a few other coins are trying to do a few things that we are planning to do (like retail PoS interfaces). For me my long term goal would be to be able to earn fees on services around Particle, just like building up a portfolio of cash-flowing rental properties etc. So my time horizon for building this stretches out over the course of a year, not short term news for pumps and hype. So that is where I am at. I have been heads down on some things, and I have been testing "new-coin" whether we go with ParticleX or some other branding. Particle2?
What I will commit to is to try to do weekly updates in the way that the PeerCoin team does.
Hey Moon,
I believe in this coin and will continue to hold. The majority of us appreciate your efforts and have faith that you will deliver your promises. Don't listen to the haters. They were probably just looking for a quick profit & bought the coin at peak expecting +100%+ of investment.
The alt coin lake is becoming an ocean and it's becoming increasingly difficult for one fish to swim on his own.
Please utilise the community and followers that you've got at your disposal. We are willing to help you promote / develop this coin and help it reach its true potential. It's going to be very difficult for you to achieve this on your own.
Thanks again for your continued efforts!
