Many of these people worked very hard to acquire large amounts of BTC and they are not short term thinking people.
One or two years is not a short term and people might not think anymore if they are benefiting by dumping.
I'm saying this not because I want an ICO, it doesn't matter to me it's really just another tool for distribution
You could do campaigns on forum but that wouldn't get you any money.It is perfect for the distribution though.
but I need people to understand that those who invested over 130 BTC did so knowing this was not a pump and dump and had real potential for Rubies being top 10 altcoin.
I don't want to say anything here but people who thought that for a no POW coin with no real coding are seriously joking.
Proof of work and special tech do not make a currency, this is often a mistake many developers make when creating anything software/hardware related. Usage and function far outweigh tech/vaporware in the long term. I think your other points have validity but human nature will end up being the judgement call on that in the end anyway.
