To the BCA team: I said some pretty harsh things early in this thread, and at the time, I think they were valid. That being said, it appears you actually are delivering on an ambitious project. Kudos
I'd like to offer some advice going forward. It's worth at least what you're paying for it
One. Be a hell of a lot more transparent. If there are problems, there are some truly brilliant people in this community who actually want things like this to succeed. Github's forking and pull functions are there for a reason. You'll get help. Probably more than you want or need, but that's not a bad place to be in.
Two. DO NOT announce things until you're ready to go with them, at least at a testing level. This always, and I do mean ALWAYS bites developers on the ass. It's better to ask for people to wait and provide regular updates than to overpromise and underdeliver. Speak surely of what you're sure of, and make note of what is planned or opinion, but do NOT announce it on a specific timeline unless you are certain you can deliver it. As in it's already in the box in at least working beta condition.
Last, but far from least, develop a robust testnet and let us play. If there are vulnerabilities in your system, this community will find them. If there are improvements to be made, this community will find them, implement them, and promote them without you lifting a finger.
Your launch was handled very badly. I've seen worse, been around a long time, but I've also seen a lot better. You would frankly have been better off to announce that TESTNET forked at a particular block, then announced the full fork LATER. This gives you, and us, the opportunity to test and break things, and gain trust in both your abilities and your word.
If you are able to deliver on what you've outlined in your roadmap (and I confess I have not had time to catch up with your latest documentation), then this is a long term highly viable project that has the potential to be a major contender. But you won't get there in secret. Not in this environment. And I think I can speak for the majority of people in this thread: We want you to succeed. We can be a rough bunch, and very impatient, but that's because a lot of us have seen this all before. We wouldn't still be here if we weren't interested, even obsessed.
The best of luck to you, and I mean that as sincerely as the criticism. I hope all goes well from here on out. A rough start is not the end of the world, though it can feel like it
