Yeah I notice a lot in this crypto space that many people are trying their hand for the first time at accepting investor money for their projects and when that "shareholder" pressure starts up because people are expecting a timely ROI all of a sudden people start cracking behind the seams. This is one of the reasons I really am worried for projects like Ethereum, those guys seem like some of the most intelligent young people in the world but I don't think many people who invested saw it as "donation money" and at some point there will be a realization that literally everyone who donated to that project essentially gave their money away and then what will happen?

I think everything the devs at counterparty are actually focusing on (development and optimization of the actual protocol itself) are the best things to focus on and everything related to the business sector in the space are the focus of those who are running business'. If you are running swarm, it would be understandable if all of a sudden the counterparty protocol became compromised, that would be reason to complain to the devs about their protol and maybe have a lack of faith, but complaining about business competition? Seriously? You're killing me Larry...
