It is interesting that were you doing till this time? All of you promise more and more during ICO and after that you are just lost. If we are not in "the right project" as you say, let's arrange the second return of investments. I think, many of us will agree to it.
We are not sitting idle, never have never will - we are developing all this time, testing internally and new public testnet is just around the corner (with a lot of improvements and features integrated) . Endusers see a GUI client, but there is a lot that we are doing in the backend (and is not seen to the naked eye) which will reflect in speed, security, stability and less problems once we go live. You can follow recent commits and changes for new ARK here :

We haven't launched yet, but we will be on exchanges once out.
The "purpose" would be so you have credibility when you predict timelines. IIRC, it wasn't just that it would launch February 1st, but "probably earlier".
On what basis should we believe launch will take place in "a few more weeks"? Was your original plan just to "fork basic QT wallet"? Was that the original roadmap to a Feb 1 release date?
Look, you missed your own target date. Fine. It seems 90% of projects around here do. So OWN UP TO IT, APOLOGIZE and stop insulting your investors and supporters.
Yeah I agree, but with a scope of this project predicting exact timelines is difficult and if pushing end product by a few weeks if it will result in better experience wouldn't participant in our TEC want that? It also looks better for potential exchanges that want to list us that they see a project that is running like it should. The only ones I could see complaining would be bounty hunters or FUDers who didn't participate.
QT wallet was just an example to make a point on some projects that are on time - we have our our client that was developed from scratch as you can see on our github :
https://github.com/ArkEcosystem/ark-desktop .
And I do apologize to every participant in our TEC - we are doing everything we can to launch a product worthy of its brand asap, give us a little more time and bear with us.
can you give us something to expect like we won't be disappointed? i know team ARK can be different from Iconomi team but at least this ICN had gave their investors were very happy since then. are we going to expect price to rise as early as a month because the platform already works?
We cannot be compared to Iconomi as they are a custom token on Ethreum chain, we are our own cryptocurrency that will also support launching your own tokens and integrate features that ARK will offer. We won't predict prices that is for market to determine.
