If we don't give XEL to @EK, the project will die just after the launch of mainnet...
FUD
but there is one truth behind it:
we clearly need a pool/fund/foundation for paying further dev after launch. We cant rely on EK, he already stated that he will step back
EK said that only when some people were getting on his nerves. Why would he step back ? Who will abandon a great project that he literally gave life to it ? I agree we should have pool/foundation,....but our Satoshi EK is not going anywhere!
