The recent pump started way before the fake crypto_zoidberg showed up in Slack. That bad actor showed up at a later stage in the pump when the coin was hovering around $.65. Imo, this fake cz was probably planted by the same FUD campaigners on this thread from the Monero camp to drive the price back down and they've succeeded in doing so. Now those same FUD fuckers are saying that the fake cameo appearance was the entire reason for the pump, totally discounting the projects credibility, reputation and organic growth.
I'm glad to see someone has been following so closely
The bi-weeklies will continue to be bi-weekly and there's been no deviation from that regardless of price
Around the same time he showed up in Slack, Fluffypony showed up in the Poloniex trollbox to discredit Boolberry. This was a coordinated attack on Boolberry by Monero camp who don't want competition in cryptonote. The audacity that these trolls come in here and call this project a scam is a scam in itself, just like they scammed the media into believing their Oasis market was a real DNM that added XMR.
I started to get personal messages from people who call themselfs "investors".
They writing that they invested hundreds of-thousands $ in project and really care about it, giving me strong advice to stop other projects and dedicate myself to BBR and so on.
For all those people i'll answer here: you invest not in the project, you invest in coins, which do not affect project funding much.

I also want to address crypto_zoidberg: You say that investing in coins has little effect on the developer fund, but I would have to completely disagree with you. By design of this project, you get 1% of the total coins mined and the hash rate is at an all-time high. The higher the Boolberry market cap, the more your developer fee is worth. You've received roughly 90,000 coins without making a substantial commit to the codebase in over two years. At $.10 a coin thats $9,000, at $1 a coin that's $90,000. That means at the height of this pump translated into a ten fold increase in the worth of your fund. If the price reaches $10 a coin, that's a $900,000 developer fund. So yes, investing in coins does have a direct effect on the developer fund that you designed to passively receive funds for continued development. The only reason this project isn't at $10.00 or more per coin is developer neglect and according to your post an apparent lack of additional donations from the community. Again, by design you have a vested interested of 1% in the project to see it succeed. If this isn't enough for you why don't you increase the fee to 5% or 10%? I'm positive most here would sacrifice extra points on the mining fee for active development.
I hope my donation is enough to get you back on the project. If it isn't enough for you to work on this project again then please send it to 1block or another developer keen on seeing this project succeed.
