On paper DASH has an inferior model to SPR because of the proof of bitcoin node plans to create incentivized Bitcoin nodes.

DASH is currently trending towards $10. Someone around here speculated that SPR could be valued at 10% of BTC. The more that DASH trends towards $10 and towards 4,000 Master Nodes the more the estimate of each SPR being worth 10% of BTC shows some credibility.

SPR was my hedge that DASH will never replace Bitcoin. I just can't understand that with such a great opportunity the dev team around here seem happy to let this huge potential slip through their fingers without putting up a fight.

This isn't just about the price of each SPR being worth $45 but the ability of the SPR dev team and the community to influence Bitcoin development because SPR could become so fundamental to the future stability and success of Bitcoin. SPR could be a layer two project for Bitcoin which could attract talented devs to help expand this project. The SPR devs would also be asked to speak at major conferences, if they wanted to, which would be great for this project. Being valued at 10% of BTC might be just the tip of the iceberg.  

There are many of us that believe this project has so much potential. When the devs make announcements about updates and releases the price of SPR picks up. When there is silence for weeks and months, the price trends much lower. Confidence is what is missing and that just requires engagement from the devs. I look at this project sometimes and just shake my head in disbelief that such a great opportunity is seemingly being wasted for the sake of better communications that can build a strong community.
