Este, you win, I give up. If I can't make anyone with power around here understand my point, I'm wasting my time.

If you think it's fine for it to take 2 days to make a simple BTM transaction like depositing or withdrawing coins from an exchange, then it's fine. If you think it is fine for Bittrex, IMHO the best exchange out there to toss your coin on the scrapheap, then it's fine. If you think it's fine for the diff to be stuck at 1953 for another 6 months, after all you are not interested in miners or the effort they put in to support the coin, then that's fine.

I did promise to support the coin with my miners until the end of the month, I'm currently about 1/3 of a miserable 200 odd mh/s. When I go that 6 months may be 9 months.

One last question, you never did tell me where all the BTC for price support would come from. According to coinwarz, you would need to triple the current value to make mining BTM comparable to mining LTC (at the current diff, which isn't going anywhere in a hurry). That's a lot of BTC and it's not like you can sell BTM to get it...

I don't think it's 'fine'. But I also know that it's less important than getting people working on Bitmark and marking and getting an actual product(s) out there. If there's nothing to use, then whether BTM functions properly at all doesn't make much of a difference. But Mark mentioned in Slack a couple of days ago #general that he's working on coming up with a way to get a wall on the market that will restart BTM mining and getting the Bitmark Foundation funded and actively contributing to making things happen. So I'm confident that he's working to address both of these issues right now at the same time, BTM/mining and marking itself.
