Another obvious reason they've been insolvent for a long time is, a guy I know from one of the trading channels I'm in (Expanse dev - not franko, the other one) tried to make a 100 BTC withdrawal from Finex like five days ago and what happened? Finex canceled his withdrawal, gave him some bogus excuse, put his account on hold, and refused to let him take funds out.



Just more evidence EXP devs are getting rich pumping and dumping on their followers.

yah, that doesn't look good. it actually pissed me off to be honest.

can exp defend this?

Lol...EXP pumping and dumping often without any news

whats up with the red franko candles always after a pump?

Some people sell on the News, I don't like that in the slightest bit, and I am not doing it, but you can't stop a conspiracy theorist from believing what they set their minds to, and I can easily see how people could think we just want to have the market cap this low, but we do not. Our goal is to break resistance and grow the price (with development and partnerships), but outside factors have been working against us, like anonymous scammers, hackers, and trolls that work to suppress the price while attacking our repuation, as they have no reputation of their own.

Their aim is to make a false equivalence that all projects are scams and therefore just buy the scam with the most volume, but we are actually building a legit project and slowly working our way up. As I am a business owner I know what businesses look for, that is real utility, not fake speculation based on misinformation like many projects out there. Some of the lies and stupidity in cryptos actually do piss me off, as I found Bitcoin in the first place to try and deal with the scammers on Paypal, and now I have to deal with them here. So I know the feeling and it is rational and fair to be skeptical.

I have thought about not having the Newsletters every two weeks, or randomizing the timing on them so people can't plan selling around news, but I truly believe that in time we will have News good enough that people will just buy more than they sell once it comes out, and then I imagine most all the haters will suddenly turn positive and praise the project as it rises, as hypocrisy is infinite for some. I have seen this pattern plenty before. Until then, at least Newsletters keep everyone informed, show how transparent we are, and it does help with volume, and that makes it much easier to get Expanse on new exchanges and keeps attention on us.
