haha this is getting out of hand, please stop with the whole daughter thing
Well, it is pretty funny and not far from the truth. (Hope I won't get banned on the Slack for this.

)I wish Rijk would be more open to things but I guess he has his reasons otherwise he wouldn't risk hurting parts of the community that supports Gulden. I asked in the original thread when and how did the rupture between Gulden and Bitcointalk happen but I got no answer. I'm still curious about it.
I think it was Gulden user that said in the old announcement page that none of the bitcointalk users contributed to the development team and all they did was whine without contributing.
100% of the funding came from the slack community who were new to crypto.
I bet if the bitcointalk community had actually contributed Gulden devs would still post here.
Even some of that Slack group you describe are banned now for simple questions like "any insight in what happens to our funds?"
A lot of the initial Bitcointalk users contributed loads and loads to the project. Rijk however managed to chase them all away and kept going to grow his brainwashed inner circle. The ones outside that circle were lucky enough not to fall for his scam. The ones inside provided him with a $ 4.000.000,- stash of cash of which he only paid less than 5% on development.
While a lot of those "innercircle" members are desperately begging for some marketing so their investment at least gets back to an acceptable level of loss-taking, he refuses to even approve well planned campaigns, let alone fund them with the cash they themselves provided!
Even Robert Mugabe would be embarrassed by this type of abuse!
