First of all, I was a KEY supporter since the beginning and I also bought a little bit into HAL. Not trying to FUD as I have made my profits and have sincerely supported Keycoin (see my post history) but now I'm out for the time being and here's why:
Not sure what to make of it, but I just realized something. I was never involved in Crypt, but right now I have a very strange feeling that the anon tech that was promised to be delivered for Crypt was actually delivered for Keycoin. And then a month ago Keycoin devs (or rather, "Pr0m3theus") said that they were working on a decentralized anon, but they have not said a word about it since. (Source:

I get the feeling that this decentralized anon is actually this one here that was delivered for Hal.
Again, not trying to imply anything, but there seems to be some connections here. Could be just a coincidence, but definitely seems weird... Also, not to mention this "Pr0m3theus" person has been involved in and/or hyped up all 3 coins (Crypt, Key, Hal):

Took you long enough. Welcome to the right side.
Well, that's because no one has really tried to say it out in a logical (mature) manner, so it all just looked like FUD. Anyways, I've basically confirmed with my own eyes that what I said is true. I saw halcyondev posted as "cryptowest" by mistake just last night. And I was not the only one who saw it, as confirmed by some PMs that I got.
Anyways, I'm not saying the dev will abandon the project, but their way of operating is sickening to say the least. Good luck to all.
The anon code in HAL is not the CRYPT project code. The anon code in HAL is new and a completely separate project. The HAL project has taken on help from a few developers, graphic artists, and some others who work as freelancers, to help meet all needed goals and complete projects. Many of these people were the early miners and/or investors. Most projects get added support from early adopters, through the first pages of the thread the original developer asked for help. HAL has done nothing but deliver on promises and goals and tech, the developer or developers cannot be blamed for the ridiculous swings in price. This is manipulation, plain and simple. You can see in the market, 30 btc of buys at 20k. This is not support for a pump, this is unfair players waiting for you to dump your coins to them, because they're betting that HAL will continue to meet its goals and rise once again. The mood of the thread follows the swings of the price, and these manipulators have done some serious damage to the price by causing a drop from 60k to 20k when there was nothing wrong and the promised anon implementation was released on time. Nobody will trust sleeping while holding HAL after such obscene swings in price, and it's upsetting. It makes no sense - the price rises to the moon and everybody was so jolly when HAL was just a shitty proof of stake only coin with no features whatsoever, an ugly graphic, a bad ANN, and no website. As soon as the developer released Peersend anonymous system, contracted a professional logo, had code reviewed by a trusted developer, and posts pictures of website progress, the price does nothing but drop. It's like the community begs to be scammed, they love the promises and hype and don't give a care about the technology or delivery, and just dump their investment, even at a loss. That is sickening.
I'd like to hear from you, the investors and whatever "community" HAL has. What do you want to see from the project? The market does not seem to care if roadmap goals are met on time or if they are completed at all. A lot of hard work and love has been put into this project, the goal from the start was to run a nootropics store with Halcyon currency, with the full intention of meeting every promise made. Good intentions, not this ridiculous manipulation of price and mood. The Halcyon project will continue as scheduled, but opinions on the direction are welcome.
Thank you.
