There should be news this week as the update is planned for release in november. Seeing that they started rolling out Facebook Ads it should be very, very close.
If the release works, and gains popularity, then the price will grow very slowly, because of the EUR-NLG exchanges. So we can sit back and watch and decide if we want to buy some.
We might finally see if POW2 is relevant and special. Maybe the hybrid POW+POS hybrid is great. Maybe it crashes out badly.
I certainly believe that Rijk is an arrogant narcisist. Very rich now too from BTC. But I don't think he and his team want Gulden to die. They own too much NLG to let it go. With Gulden one has to assume that 1% owns 99% - same as for BTC. Have a look here
http://www.nlgstats.nl/richlist/Gulden (NLG) is something to sit back and watch. If Gulden grows it will be very slowly in crypto terms, and that might be its failure - the marketing plan.
I owned 31000 NLGs. Bought at 2870 sats and sold at 1130. Pretty big loss on BTC value, but it only dropped 15% in fiat money so no big deal. Just that I missed a good bull run in the BTC time span.
With or without a BTC crash, there are some huge growth areas in altcoin cryptos and Gulden doesn't look like one of them.
