Hi everyone
As you all know I've made my intentions clear to help promote FreshCoin, however recent events and observations that I've made while being a part of this thread have forced me to go back on those intentions.
I mentioned earlier that what I really wanted to do to help improve FreshCoin was to re-design the wallet. SilkCoin has proven before that people invest in coins with good looking wallet, and that a Wallet's GUI is a heavily marketable point.
I've been trying my best to get FreshCoin's presentation standard up to standard as outlined in the logo design and OP design which I posted. I've contacted savale many times trying to get the ball rolling on either the logo design, OP design and the Wallet UI design and he has followed through on none. I proposed a modified design of the SilkCoin UI I used so that savale could fork the UI section of the SilkCoin wallet (code in GitHub -
https://github.com/shnurf/silkcoin) and make the small changes needed to comply with the new design. A change like this would take
less than a day to complete, however I haven't heard from savale yet despite many attempts to get the ball rolling on this.
Some of you may think I am being harsh, but the main problem here is communication. savale, you need to realize that if you are the only developer and there are no official members who can keep the community updates, you need to be in constant communication with your community. The way you are looking at this is more like an experiment , rather than an actual business venture. You also have chosen to put marketing on hold until you release Fresh Online, but the way I see it, by that time there will be nothing left to market. As it stands the market is on a knife-edge, anyone can dump the price down to 0 Satoshis, and once that happens there is simply no coming back as there is no demand for FreshCoin at the moment.
I had plans in place to market this the exact same way as I did with SilkCoin, things including an introductory video, re-designed wallet and the setting up of a forum and a handful of other campaigns that I could have put in place to help spread the word about FreshCoin, but it is clear that due to these communication problems it would take months to even get the simplest promotion campaigns off the ground. As of 2 hours ago I no longer hold FreshCoin, my reasons are all outlined above. You all can still use all the graphics I designed for FreshCoin, once again there is no obligation or payment needed for those.
I wish everyone here and FreshCoin the best in the future.
Regards,
Wulcastle
