Hello Ed,

I appreciate your challenging words but consider this thought about what you have said. Because as it is spoken it seems as if you simply dont know Americans or the current American attitude and culture. Or how much they actually dislike Cable TV or the Fact that Cable TV has already largely been replaced.

Or how lazy they actually are about learning and adopting new things. With Sollars and Sense:Smart Money there is literally nothing to learn... If you know Americans. You know how powerful that can be. Not to consider the fact that Americans tend to lean towards other American products when adopting something new. Especially banking.

I appreciate your skepticism. Its healthy especially since you are being civil about it But we know what we are doing.

This project will be making the best visual content to go along with the technology to reach and spread our message beyond the crypto-sphere. We literally launched this to the public two weeks ago lol And look at what we have already achieved and are about to achieve.

In addition consider the deeper cultural implications of why humans actually use currencies. Do you simply believe "technology" and "team" will spur adoption? If that were the case Bitcoin would be mainstream and not looked at as a failed video game by most regular people (IF they even know about it.)

By your implied standards BitCoin has and still has the best "team" and yet is failing and will ultimately fail against the wonderkid's upstart called Ethereum. You see I can remember the good ol' days when everyone was doubting that project and using the same exact words you are throwing our way about what is and is not possible.

Its humbling. Let's me know we are on the right track 

We are taking a Holistic approach and that approach has largely determined why we can have an Amazon and a Barnes and Nobles and Amazon wins. Or the reason why we can have a Facebook, Friendster, and Myspace and Facebook WINS. Both myspace and Friendster had "larger" "greater" teams when Marky Mark launched Facebook to the world. Just like other project have solid "teams" that you think we don't have.

We all know how that story turned out. Don't be quick to judge what is and is not possible with this project. Simplicity as we are can be a dangerous thing in a good. And we don't have a team, we have a community.
