I think MAX and OLIVIER really put the XCR team in a tough spot. I'm just not comfortable with where either project is headed at this stage. I'm just bothered that you have bag holders (who likely have a share smaller than mine, btw) trying to PUMP this as a good thing. LOL. That is laughable. I'd prefer LISK and XCR to integrate and airdrop 25% to legacy XCR holders or SOMETHING. Having two groups now moving forward with something that has this little community support is just a waste of everyone's time (I can afford the losses and the time wasted, but can the devs?)
Yes, I can convert my XCR to LISK, but, that still leaves two teams fighting over almost no community and support. The project(s) just look desperate now.
What two teams? The XCR foundation are supporting Lisk. There won't be two groups after the ICO, it'll just be Lisk, really.
Whether that is a good or bad thing is up for debate. But there is no feasible way for XCR to survive after the ICO. It's a choice of either selling your XCR to others (who logically will trade them in for Lisk) or converting Lisk yourself. Just holding onto XCR past the ICO makes no sense at all.
As for no community, that really was the problem with XCR all along. If the ICO can get outside investors, then it has a chance. If not... there will be a lot of Lisk dumping post-ICO.
