What the differences the 31th december or if will be some days after the new years will not make any change for the entire community, XVG is a great project anyway!
They are saying it will be released by 2018... So now one has to ask... Which TimeZone? If they release this 12/31/2017 on and EST TimeZone, then people in Asia and other countries will think it was all BS and cause it to slam down even more. If they want to release this on the "new year" for Japan/Korea then it needs to be released within the next 18 hours!
