Yeah it seems you are going to have the first ether fork. Don't blow it and have it unfair at launch.

Make sure there are pools. If there are no pools, the the distribution will become lopsided and the majority will stay away, and for good reason.


Take as long and do whatever is necessary to have the fairest launch possible!!


If you drop the ball there, it will all be for nothing. It won't help anyone, not even those who end up mining a bunch, cause the coin will fizzle out.

I seen you mention anon.

This is a great idea!! There is another coin that was just released called darkether. It's not a real fork of Ethereum, so I think you got a leg up on them there. So they are nothing to worry about I don't think.

Can you explain the direction you are going to take when approaching anonymity? How will you accomplish this. People are usually worried about anon tech being too centralized is what I usually hear as complaints the most. So please elaborate on you plans when it comes to anonymous transactions. I'm super pumped about a true ether fork with anon tech!!!!

You are in a great position right now.

If you play your cards right, you will find that you have a winner because I think interest in the coin will be high.

I look forward to hearing your response, as I see you're the kind of dev that is active and follows up on everything.

This is another great sign.


Shift has all the potential in the world. Great name too. You've got me excited!!!
