As for FLY I have just been reading since I first spoke to community members. A little too gargantuan for my taste, I follow the KISS philosophy in development.
Wait and see I guess.
Some people just like simple. Me too in most cases. But I think the cryptoworld was ready for something new and completely different. I mean we already have 1500 coins that are identical (except for the name). So FLY is a completely different choice. However because its so radical, and the code is so different , it has its challenges. Code is being worked on every day, including right now as we speak. We realize the exchange has been down, and I dont take this lightly. So we are working to get this going as fast as possible. Have you also noticed that almost every other crypto has become worthless? I mean 10,000 sats is the new moon in crypto. FLY is solid as a rock at 200,000 sats. So based on this fact, I would say Crypto IS ready for a change, and that change is called FLY. Also when FLY does become the new rage, other devs wont be able to copy it. Ive offered to pay btc to hire additional devs to work on the code. 10 of them said they would. Only 2 agreed. The rest wouldn't touch it. SO that tells me even in an open source world, there wont be another FLY. Keeping it rare and scarce , and prices high
Thanks

I didn't mean to sound brusque or anything ... I am pretty busy on another development project and didn't feel I'd be able to give the attention to this project it needed. I wish you guys all the luck, the community is pretty open and nice here.
If however you guys hire bug testers down the road, I will be glad to assist in that area. I have plenty of spare boxes for that sort of thing.
As for the exchange thing, people put way too much effort into that part of things too soon in many case, and that is what leads to failure. Taking the time to build the platform before throwing it out there is good. I'd like to see something actually rare and scarce that isn't listed on every toilet of an exchange out there today.
AWESOME!! YOU GET IT!!!! RARE AND SCARCE!! Thats what fly is all about. People said I was nuts when I said it was going to be listed on only one exchange, and a small exchange at that. But you get it!!
Thank you

Trading tiddlywinks back and forth doesn't offer any utility. Outside of an exchange, what am I going to do with 99% of the shitcoins out there besides hope I can cash them out to BTC before they tank? I can't spend flavour-of-the-month coin at my favorite market or website. Still more are just copy-paste clones (as you mentioned) that have serious flaws that have never been patched, with kindergarten-level cryptography. Overnight a dedicated attacker can tumble the house of cards they are made on.
