We are just going in a different direction to SPR. All the development currently within SPR has a two year history but we've reached the point of divergence. The two projects have different paths, but they will still both exist.
Well said.
This cannot be emphasized enough early on with the Helium project. Spreadcoin is a separate project that the Helium team supports and frankly is very excited about. GeorgeM has spent a considerable amount of time putting together his ideas for the project. There will be releases coming out on SPR and this has, is currently and will continue to bring unique value to SPR.
There is no doubt that the HLM influence is having currently however context is very important here. Both projects will do well independent of each other going forward. Ultimately, all well reasoned suggestions (and I feel the above suggestion is just that) will be looked at closely. There is no conjecture regarding the history of Spreadcoin's original vision and how that is being put forth into Helium, thus Spread holders will not be left out in the cold after several years of support (in terms of time, emotion and finances).
How we decide to administer that process will be ironed out over the coming weeks and months. Thank you to everyone for taking the time to give their valuable feedback, this is quite literally part of the community engagement Helium is going to be renowned for.
