I just woke up from last nights firefight. I was there with financial support, and support for the Development team, but it really felt like some members were running out their foxholes a little prematurely.
Bitcad4u... I am the Houdini of Cryptos. I always know when to pull the plug. XC is young child with endless possibilities... not an old geezer on life support. I respect your decision, but next time if you feel the urge to pull out... please don't lob a grenade into the trench. Just head for the treeline and keep your head down until the dust settles. Dan and the other members of the development team have earned a little leeway.
synechist... you are one classy individual. Absolutely love having you here!
My Official statement RE:lastnight
To the XC TEAM and Community:
You need to understand, there were strong emotions tied to this release, and much respect lost on my end from investors I deal with. My reputation was slightly damaged due to promises that were made that were beyond my control. This would have all been fine with me had I been warned PRIOR that the release would be delayed and that it would not be fully functional on main net.
I only stated FACTS in the thread. Stating the facts and opening up constructive criticism is better than putting my head down, standing on the side lines, and pretending its "all good". Actually in my opinion, if you are going to sit back and tell newbies and future investors its all good, then you are a deceiving piece of shit looking out only for your best interest. At least I am honest, yet I admit, sorry I can be rather blunt and upfront.
My intentions were not to lob a grenade into a trench. The market would have realized what was happening with or without my facts stated.
I still TRULY believe in Dan and the XC team. There is no doubt in my mind that XC WILL be a world class leader in block chain related applications. For the record, my miners never turned away from XC during this, and I never did CASH my personal XC out of the market. I will admit though, I DID cash out some of my investors XCs in order to stop loss for them... I knew what was coming due to the unforeseen situation at hand.
Please accept my apologies XC team and community.
I love and respect you all.
