We started life as Bitcoiners back in 2011 (those annoying types who get obsessed with it).
We did this on Ethereum 'cause it was so utterly interesting and available.
If we can do it on rootstock with Bitcoin, then why not. We'll have to dive into the Rootstock code.
But we still think Ethereum has a very, very bright future.
We're more convinced of that now, as we build with it more.
So you started with Bitcoin and as soon something technically better (at that time) with more possibilities (DAPPS, smart contracts) showed up you switched over.
Will you guarantee that in the future when we possibly may see even more advanced altcoin with better, futuristic solutions implemented you won't ditch your current project and switch again?
I mean current ETH blockchain has some limitations as well.
It's a fair question. Though the facts / assumptions are not technically correct.
We are blockchain nerds. We maintain successful applications for Bitcoin at the moment too.
We've even written applications for Dogecoin that are very successful for that space, on an ongoing basis.
These are all betting / gambling applications. So we stick to a core competency.
As we believe it is wrong to spread yourself too thin. Then nothing gets achieved. That's a core philosophy for us.
So, we don't "ditch" anything. These are ongoing projects that are going well, in a commercial setting.
We have a good core team of developers, some of the best. We have guys even on the original Ethereum founding team.
We also have an extended team of sub-contracted security experts, and developers.
After the crowdsale, with funds, that team will be increased over time, at a manageable pace.
We realise we live and breathe by the developer talent we attract and keep. We consider ourselves very good at that.
It's probably the most important thing. This space has a limited amount of real talent, for how fast the technology is growing.
That will change over an extended period. But it takes time for real talent to re-tool and re-adapt to working with this new technology.
So, it was never a matter of just switching over to Ethereum. It was a platform that allowed us to build an extra application within our core competency.
Please ask further questions if you feel this was not a satisfactory answer. I am not being facetious. Quality questions like this help everyone on this thread.
