I encourage anyone thinking of buying to wait until 1.4 is released. But once (if) that happens the price will probably be $1-$2 higher than it is now. JBG (the lead dev) on the discord* said that they're now looking into bringing on an outside developer with C++ experience. Hopefully that will kill some of the FUD being spread around, I know it will quell some of my worries. Still lots more to prove, but I'm patient and I think it will pay off.
Anyone telling you with 100% certainty that this is a scam has ulterior motives, just as anyone telling you that Stealth Staking is 100% a sure thing also does as well. Do your own research, wait for more meaty releases, and make a decision on your own accord.
jbg has made far too many false promises and lied too much in the past, do you believe him?
Also it's easy to prove a coin is a scam by looking at a years worth of development and release claims, it's not rocket science and it doesn't involve ulterior motives, it's just people not wanting to see scam projects, pretty simple isn't it?
You're right on stealth staking though, we only have "his word" to go on with this one.
Price was higher at this point yesterday vs today, my guess is it'll go down in to the 5k sat range today.
