No news / clarifications from dev

Main site https://humaniq.co/ not updated since Token sale almost a month back. (or is there some other Main site?)

As a long term investor, I am looking for some statements and confidence building measures from dev, to continue to hold on to token. Only info being published is too generic / visionary statements

Not sure why the humaniq team does not speak the hell up here, but I will say that they do have some pretty active product managers on their slack channel (look for @anton). There's a fair amount of P&D bullshit there too, but a few humaniq employees actually seem to know what the hell is happening. Have also gotten direct responses from founders on my questions.

To answer some of your specific questions:

- There is a planned web site refresh in the next week or two. Most of the team has been focused on some heavy showing at blockchain expo for the last week or so.
- It seems that there is some pretty heavy weight backend block chain development and testing happening at the moment, including whether to use ETH ledger directly, or to use a private node with private node block verifications being cross posted to the public ETH ledger.
- Sounds like they're dropping support for iOS, as the target market for their customers is squarely in the Android camp. This is good news, as it allows them to focus dev/outsourcing efforts on the platform that really matters (there's never going to be $20 new iPhones for sale in Africa).

Hope this helps.

There is no need to worry our team is working hard to release the Beta app in May. As of right now we have released the pre-beta Humaniq version of the application. The completed app will come in July.

Not wanting to be condescending here, but I guess perhaps I must.

Do you see the specific bullet points that I listed, with details on what is being worked on, and specific meaningful answers? Yeah that's what you need to have someone from your team start doing here. Regularly.

What nobody on your team seems to realize yet is the bullshit answers like "don't worry guys, we're workin7 g hard on things... We are doing cool stuff" just makes things worse. You chose to do an ICO and sell a coin into the wild West of crypto. You birthed this baby. You need to manage it in a meaningful way.

If you don't have a capable admin here, find one and pay them. Otherwise the FUDders win and your token goes down the shitter. I know that you aren't here to pump a coin, but even if you don't give a damn about your investors, at the very least you have a vested interest in the healthy growth of your token as a funding strategy for your product.

Thanks for detailed info hmq_dave, from the Slack channel.

Yes Humaniq needs to have a better comms/PR team. Communication style, language and content does not inspire much confidence, even sounds school-boyish. It makes you wonder if the project has been thought thru even. Sorry to sound so negative, but one tends to naturally compare with the solid business plans and slick communication of some of the leading crypto projects -- and find Humaniq PR so deficient.

On the positive side Cointelegraph listing Humaniq as top 7 Fintech cryptos is as external validation and very encouraging.

And yet despite the good press it seems that not a whole lot of people are keen on keeping their coins at the moment. I completely agree with hmq_dave on the fact that communication from the development team is really lackluster. The simple fact is that in order to succeed as a cryptocurrency you have to be active in engaging with the people that are holding your coins/tokens. Not only is it unfair to people that invested in the ICO, you will just not get new peopl that are interested in your project.

I definitely think that your project is a very interesting one but the success will most likely rest on being able to effectively communicate your goals and roadmap to your supporters in the community. The issues and questions raised in this topic are very valid and even though you as a development team may think they are irrelevant (as you probably know the answers to them) they are relevant to those that are scanning these fora.

At the moment the only news in this thread seem to be the people that keep mindlessly saying 'oh yes a rise is coming' and 'thanks for your cheap coins'. A community needs more reassurance than just a message that there is nothing to worry about.

The Humaniq project itself is a great idea. It will be a great success if the Dev team does a serious job. But many members of the team behind this project are not trust worthy. I talked about that on a slack. In Africa when people want to scam the wear the dress of pastor to give more credibility. unfortunately many of the member of the project are pastor...with my experience I did not invest in this ICO. The price could rise due to speculation but Ive doubt that they will develop they idea. Maybe I am wrong but reading this thread I could say until now my doubt is verified... let see in the future.
