Guys I have been called a visionary throughout my life. I have always done things YEARS before everyone else adopts my ideas. Its happened time and time again. Almost always I create an idea that is called "outlandish", "outrageous", "crazy" "ridiculous" and more. The reason , is its WELL ahead of its time. I retired a few years ago from my businesses , and wanted to work full time in Crypto. I see things well before they happen. Call it a 6th sense, I dont know. Just yesterday about noon here in Las Vegas, the many btc that Cryptsy was holding for weeks, I finally took the time to buy a different coin and remove it. One hour AFTER I withdrew the last coin, the news broke that Cryptsy had closed its doors and were missing. Ill glady provide proof to any trusted mature individuals. Anyway, throughout my life, my ideas are never accepted right away because at that time they dont fit with the way things "should be". So I watched the pattern of newbie devs come in and create some clone coin, make loads of promises, and disappear within a couple of weeks. This happened HUNDREDS of times over and over and over, many times a day, every day. Now the children here might think thats funny. Let me assure you, there is nothing funny or comical about getting scammed. This pattern was non stop. Its almost as if Crypto itself was crying out "DO SOMETHING!!!". I watched for over a year, people lose hundreds, thousands of dollars, and it made me sick. So, I thought well, someone will come along, and stand up and make this right. So I waited and waited, more people continued to fall for the same scam : create a clone coin, with nice graphics, make loads of promises, then newbie dev gone in 2-3 weeks. More people hurt. So I waited longer for someone to come and help us. He never came. The reason he never came, is that person is ME. I am the one that is setting the new structure of crypto, and setting the standards, and setting that standard extremely high. The same people that use all this time to spread fud and lies, have done NOTHING to make this terrible situation better. They think everything is a joke. There is nothing funny about people losing money. I created FLY as a safe haven, were people can put their money and KNOW it wont get dumped to hell. Is it WAY before its time, YES! Eventually people will catch on that its the safest place to put their money in Crypto.
So same thing is happening here. My ideas of creating new coins or swaps/takeovers is radically different. Why? The way it is done now DOES NOT WORK.
The reason they dont work is because honest devs would not dare ask what they are really worth to make a high quality product with an elite team with the finest support. The community would go ballistic.. and they did. But your all fooling yourselves if you think that a newbie dev is creating a coin because "he loves to do it, and has nothing better to do". By not being paid, he will scam anyway he can, or lie or cheat, and dump on the nearest exchange as soon as he can.
My way:
Lay all the cards face up on the table. Tell you how much we will be profiting. In this scenario because its a swap, I think the average user loses about 1% -1.5% of their net worth of the XDE they turn in to swap. A very small price to pay for quality. I Also believe that that 1% will EASILY be made back and more when XDEII is released. We will continually deliver the finest product, with around the clock support for many years to come. My team all lives in different time zones and that makes this possible. The coin will be continually developed and get better on a very regular basis. We wont beg for donations, the product wont die due to lack of funding (which is why 99% of coins die, because devs WONT work for free, and I dont blame them).
So, I see this as the way of the future. Elite , respected members will come together and form an elite team and will outline their plan. They will open the books for you to see. You will know what we are being paid. That is NOT being dishonest, that IS being honest, even if you think its too much. If you feel that way, then dont participate, thats all. They will all be respected Hero or Senior members with their reputations on the line.
So getting backlash for being a pioneer , a visionary is not new. Everytime I introduce a new way of doing something that has never worked before, there is a pattern. First its resistance, because its radically different, then slowly a few people that are watching begin to realize that the "new way" works MUCH better than the old, and they join the cause, and support it. Then slowly people begin to see, that this is a much better way for everyone. Has the "old way" worked, even ONCE? We cannot be accused of scamming because scamming is representing one thing, and delivering nothing, and disappearing. NONE of that will happen. We will OVER deliver. We now MUST earn that money we are getting paid, because we are ethical and honest. So some of you may see this, and realize its for the best, and others still may want the newbie dev that runs off after a few weeks.
So guys cut me some slack, Ive not scammed anyone. I created a new honest way that everyone can profit. The people doing ALL the work make most of the money. I see nothing wrong with this at all. XDE2 is backed by a very honest and ethical and very talented team that is capable of anything you can dream of and ideas you couldnt even dream of.
Before you judge me again, ask yourself, what have YOU done to make crypto a better , and safer place? NOTHING!
Welcome to the "New era of crypto".
