Hello whats up with the founder of GLD ? He was kicked by you ? Whats up with the future of GLD ?
Great question!
The last dev sold us the GLD domain for 1BTC because he did not have enough time to work on the project. He was not "kicked".
Then he was paid another 1BTC under the alias of Hyoshi for doing dev work for the community. Of course at the time we did not know that these two people were in fact a single individual using (at minimum) triple identities. Basically he was getting paid left and right while operating under different assumed names. Then while using this Hyoshi alias (he's also apparently thekidcoin) he again indicated in a public post that he didn't have time to to work on the project:
https://www.gldtalk.org/index.php?topic=63.msg923#msg923It was after that statement that we realized for sure we needed to secure additional developers if we wanted a stable and reliable team. The good news is I now believe to know the real life identity of this individual who is being sought by other interested parties. I am currently refusing to participate in the prosecution of this individual but must admit my patience is wearing thin.
We have now assembled a solid reliable dev team of three professionals led my akumaburn and will be releasing a fork soon. The fork will fix several bugs including the litecoin alert, the client sync issue, and the coin generation bug. The fix will also reduce annual coin output and cap supply.

You can't prosecute someone, for not using their own name on the interwebz. And Interpol would laugh their asses off, if you try to tell them, this guy scammed you out of imaginary internet money. You may as well tell them, someone scammed you in Undercity, for 1000 WoW Gold, or, someone in Icecrown, needed, when they should have greeded.. Man you are an idiot. And hunting down someone's real life identity, over your fail coin, is pretty psychotic. Get a fucking life.
And seriously? Your going to lower block reward? So, you guys got your millions of coins a piece, and now you plan on making it harder for new comers, to mine coins? Great idea, that won't kill any microscopic chance your coin had of succeeding
Tell me then why the price rises?
