.... The problem is the total radio silence from those still holding the keys. If they've abandoned the project, FINE.....not great since it would be yet another (and certainly not the last) BIG LET-DOWN in the crypto-space, but FINE. The Potcoin followers have been left in the total dark, and it's a shame.
If Potlabs is gone / out of the game, let those that are still playing know what the deal is.
It seems to me, there's still a community out there and much that can still be salvaged under the right kind of leadership. As BitcoinNational just said, the tech is fine....the tech of all coins is "fine" - it's tackling the 800lb gorilla (real-world adoption/use) that's never left the room that is the inherent issue with ALL coins.
If I recall correctly, PotLabs (or those involved with PotLabs) are based out of Canada, and if what they say about the newly elected Prime Minister Trudeau is accurate, there's enormous potential for Potcoin and its development in Canada. It would be a shame to abandon the project NOW of all times, but if that's what PotLabs is doing, FFS, let the people know.
Exactly its the silence that's the most discouraging. I've been in this thread for a few weeks asking about the mobile wallets or any kind of point-of-sale system and I've seen nothing that even remotely resembled progress. According to potlabs own roadmap the web wallet was supposed to be in development months ago but I'm guessing that's entirely vaporware.
This may be tin foil hat stuff but I think potlabs took over the coin for the sole purpose of a pump and dump scheme to make $ for themselves. The transition to PoSv in all honesty was a fairly simple thing to do, the code was already written they just had to integrate it. Releasing the roadmap with all the cool stuff they said they were going to do was just more bs to pump the coin. Again that's just my tin foil hat conspiracy theory but it looks more true after each day of silence.
