1. How does Rynomaster feel about what happened at Cinnicoin and can he and others see how quietly launching Shadowcoin amidst the chaotic collapse of the CINNi project (which he had hitherto been associated with) could be perceived as ill-advised?

See this post, which was posted in this thread (yet another example of how do you accept given answers?):

Statement from the Cinnicoin developer

Previous Cinnicoin community/project manager also clearing up the FUD:

You're researching poorly, connecting dots that don't exist and then making accusations instead of asking questions. This whole thread seems designed to attack SDC rather than find out answers. I'm a bit disappointed. When you said you'd create your own thread I was looking forward to reading an interesting debate about shadowcash.

You can clearly see ryno's role in Cinni project. Cinni ≠ Shadow, the only link there is Ryno with some contracted work he agreed to do and apparently did. Blaming Shadow for Cinni's fall doesn't make sense.
I don't know nothing about Cinni, I'm not Ryno and I don't want to speak on his behalf. But this has been said by others.

I am quite aware of these atempts to "clear things up". I could quote a plethora of CINNI posts where community members express dismay, anger and confusion. Rather than that let us try and establish how they might have been angered. Start by redaing this Digital Money Times story dated June 10 2014 (5 weeks before the release of Shadowcoin), "CinniCoin’s New Team Member, New Encrypted Messaging Demo Video”
http://digitalmoneytimes.com/cinnicoins-new-team-member-new-encrypted-messaging-demo-video/


Quote
The additional CinniCoin developer is called Rynomster, who is one of the two extra coders CINNI hired a while back to help them with the encrypted messaging system. Because Rynomster is very impressed with the way CINNI carries itself, he expressed his desire to be an internal part of the team from now on.

Rynomster is the lead coder for not only the encrypted messaging system, but also the anonymity transfer system and mobile platforms. Having over 7 years of experience in the IT industry, and experience in the finance sector as an R&D developer, he will make an excellent addition to the CinniCoin team.
For more information about Rynomster’s qualifications, click here.

So, without further adieu, I would like to welcome a new addition to the Cinni Dev team -- Rynomster!  Let us all give him a warm welcome to the team!

I say again that this article was released 5 weeks before the launch of shadowcoin which rynomster did not put his name to till many days after launch. Shadowcoin's first feature (3 weeks or so after launch) was  also the EM system and the "anonymity transfer system" later bacame Shadowsend (where is technovert in all this btw?). Ryno's voice can also be heard narrating the demo vid linked in the article.

Under these circumstances it is easy to understand why CINNI community members might have been furious. What followed (esp after Cinni's new wallet released by ryno on June 24 2015) appears to have been a horrible pump and dump followed by the exit of Ryno, battbot and others. Even if Ryno is not directly responsible for this sequence of events it is hard to imagine how one walks away from that with clean hands. Battbot was an early SDC investor as was Schild_ who appears to have been shilling pretty damn hard in the Cinni thread during early July’s collapse. All-in-all very dodgy and undoubtedly a scam. SDC was launched not by BCT account rynomster but rather sdcoin (as anticipated in one of the links below). The below links from the Cinni thread (early July 2014) are included to flesh out this summation of these most ugly events.

And this post where battbot’s attempts to clear ryno’s name over a month later on August 24th are met by an angry cinnicoin member with many links of his own.

So I ask again: How does Rynomaster feel about what happened at Cinnicoin and can he and others see how quietly launching Shadowcoin amidst the chaotic collapse of the CINNi project (which he had hitherto been associated with) could be perceived as ill-advised?
