FIX THE SHIT AND GET IT WORKING
I'm going to let the childish, entitled brat behaviour just sit there and speak for itself, and just say this:
Everyone on the team are working hard to get this situation cleared. Those on the team with enough B3 to run a FN, are not able to because of the current issues, so we are in the same boat.
begs the question who is currently able to run masternodes as they will be the ones with any value left in a week
If the team did not intend to scam which I still believe it was well at least badly executed. There was no good reason to try and rush things with the MN before block 80K.
And even more unforgivable for me to have admins on discord who just kick or ban people at their leisure. Complete disrespect to community members really.
People running Fundamental Nodes, are people who took the (huge) cost of not being in a pool the last weeks, to prepare having enough in their wallet for this.
LMAO, seriously, The original DEV's plan was to allow FN's after the 80k block, so it seems those who prepared the last weeks were in the know about the ridiculous decision to allow FN's before 80K block.
The reason to allow FN's before 80K block by the DEV's was to "reward" the early investors (those who had already made a fortune) and had 25 mil coins to pay for a FN. That was around 4% of the community, the other 96% of the community were against this as they did not have 25 mil and were hoping to get a FN after the 80k block (which would have created 1000+ FN's) and would have stabilised the network far better than the initial 15 owned by the DEV's (mostly IP's in Japan).
The whole B3 scenario is looking like one of the biggest altcoin scams so far, and the DEV's best get sorting it out before the 96% of the feeling cheated community do a runner, oh and I bet Ambassador to B3 Mr Jamie Woodruff is so happy he signed up to this.
I think you're making stuff up. I invested a lot of my money into this around the 68K block and kept it all staking in my wallet. That's why I had enough for a fundamental node. I've never been to Discord, I refuse to sign up for social media sites. Never talked/texted/emailed with a dev. I refuse to send my coins to pool because I always thought that having your coins under some un-regulated, stranger's control is never a good idea. Partially it's by luck of not trusting pools that I have enough for a node.
As for node IP's being in Japan, I could have set up my node in Japan too if I wanted to. The VPS service I use (Vultr) has most of their servers in the U.S., but they also have servers in other countries, including Japan. So their nodes being in Japan really means nothing.
