Hey VP, thanks for the update

- but I (personally) don't agree this the logic here...
The coinswap represents a highly valuable opportunity to move away from the slow, bloated and somewhat broken blockchain CBX currently implements - to update the client with modern (SECURE) code base and set CBX on a firm footing for the future should be the primary goal here. Just because a single (granted our only) exchange won't support the coin if we swap should not (ever) dictate the technical direction of the implementation of the coin - the code/blockchain at the end of the day is all that matters, and if it's not sound CBX has no future.
With a coinswap, new code base, clean client and fluid blockchain (you can sync from the Gen block to the latest) we should re-approach a number of key exchanges and diversify our market penetration. What if our only exchange implodes in 3 months time?
Just my two sense, but if we bend to the will of a singular corporate entity that is in this game to solely make money what does that say about CBX, it's values and the attitudes toward decentralisation that any investor will questionnaire before placing buy orders that will drive it's value upward.
FR
Read the update this morning at work. Just logged in to give my view, and I see FiniteRed has covered almost everything I've been stewing over all day.
Totally agree with FR. I was shocked with the announcement that the CBX Dev team were going to abandon the current development path because of the views of an exchange. To develop CBX in a way that fits an exchange, rather than evolve. To give in to demand of a centralised organisation.
We have the chance to leave behind the baggage that has been carried and held us back for so many years.
The coinswap along with the new software would have us on multiple exchanges within weeks of release. The setup, blockchain download, memory issue and crashing of Vault 2.4.3 is why I suspect we aren't listed on many more exchanges than we are.
There has been a lot of interest In CBX lately and what message does this say to prospective investors who are eagerly awaiting vault 3.0? I suspect they are tired of this game of snakes and ladders as much as the rest of us.
The latest announcement has left me disappointed and unsure about the future of CBX if the dev team is so easy to give in to the stance of an exchange, and mold CBX to fit in, rather than to stick with their own vision of crypto bullions future.
I presume all exchanges new/old/large/small have been contacted about listing CBXi and rejections from all have been received before deciding to not move forward, and stay stuck in the same old hole?
