I'm pleased that some people have responded to my posts with some suggestions and arguments. I'd really like to debate this some more.
For the record, I have a fairly decent amount of MNX. I am pleased with the reporting from the Minex Team and very interested in the project. It's absolutely not my intention to troll or attempt to disrupt the community.
I hope my posts come across as constructively critical. The whole ecosystem being built up by the team may fail for the worst reason... because MNX can't hold it's market value.
I think we are still waiting to see the impact of the VISA cards. There were some keen early adopters, myself included. Again for the record, I have passed my KYC checks and eagerly await my card delivery.
But surprisingly to me... enthusiasm for the cards is much lower than I was expecting. I base this on the published number of attempted KYC submissions (475). I hope that the thousands of other unpaid registrations are waiting to see the first few successful transactions reported and jump on board.
Analysing things more has led me to the conclusion that the strategies used to kick start this project may well cause its demise if not addressed within the next couple of quarters.
(See my previous posts for my reasoning)

What we need is more volume, other than the periodical dumping of parking interest.
I expect the coming weeks might be particularly bad for MNX price as the first quarterly parkings are due to mature.
