edit: one irony I have to admit is (k)ORA started in response to my overwhelming feeling that the early Qora community were going about things in a very short-sighted way, and that stimulated me to ask "could I do things better". Well, I must admit that right at this moment my efforts have failed, while Qora over the last few weeks has really strengthened it's position as a truly great decentralised PoS coin. Even though my intention was never to make a straight clone of Qora (and I've mentioned that on many occasions) I do feel like the "Kora, a clone of Qora" was a mistake, even as just an initial attention grabbing 'stunt'. I am very happy to see Qora doing well though!!
Now this^^^ is called GROWING SOME (literally & metaphorically)... RESPECT!
As far as ORA goes... just give DH as much time as you feel is appropriate. Then... I see absolutely NO reason why you shouldn't proceed with issuing a new treasury account if he doesn't show up. Find someone willing to take up that role (if not yourself) and take advantage of the fact that the real ORA distribution has not started yet... do a name change if you have to!
Thanks smaragda, some really good advice there!! I'm going to give Darkhorse a while longer. He's a good dude, and he's worth waiting for IMO. ORA needs a solid community treasurer, and I think that person is DH. He's a crypto true believer, like many following ORA over the last year or so, but he's obviously got his hands full with something else at the moment, and I fully understand that.
I believe the decentralised crypto currency community is in its infancy, and the direction and 'vibe' we tried to create for ORA was worthwhile, and worth persisting with. The initial distribution of ORA tokens was fair and open, and I still believe focusing on the community building elements first is a good strategy to follow, especially when the goal is to create a vibrant & resilient decentralised leaderless starfish community.
With that in mind it's time to put ORA into hyper-sleep while we wait for Darkhorse to come back and re-animate things. My gut tells me DH will be back soon. If he isn't ... well, everything is recorded on the NXT blockchain, so someone else could always .....
Sweet dreams ORA!!
