The Ellaism community fund is a donation based fund that is meant to be used to further the interests of the Ella community. Some people have donated to it directly, and some through a small percentage donation through mining. It is held in a multi signature wallet.

The Egems devs were at one time part of the Ella dev team, and were signers to the community fund. When they left over a disagreement, the community fund is essentially frozen since there are not enough signers to move the coins. Instead of doing the right thing and giving back control to the community. Since the Egems devs decided to leave the Ella coin and community behind, it would only be the fair and right thing to do to hand back control to the Ella community. But that has not happened.

So if you want to support the Egems project, everything will be great if you always agree with these devs, no matter what they wanna do. But if you disagree, you can see that they have not done the right thing in the past.

Yes, it may be "in the past" and you are "over it" and "moving forward" all that. But I wouldn't let a "past" pedophile baby sit my kids, no matter how much they claim to be "over it", and I bet you wouldn't neither.

To be fair, that doesn't sound like they stole the community fund. It just sounds like they wanted to leave Ella for good, no strings attached.

I can't really blame them? Who would the community fund go to? It would just go to the core team of Ella now (which is just Ellaismer.)

It'll probably end up being a wallet that ends up being untouched and untoucheable. Even when Ella is worth $1,000 or $500 each, it's just going to be crypto candy that people wish they had access to, but don't.

Forced hodl'ing lol.

So if you let a banker manage your money, you are ok that if he switches jobs to another bank, that money just stays in the bank and you can't access it anymore? That's a responsible and grown up thing to do in your opinion?

Hey bud, you got the facts wrong. First off, not everyone on EGEM is a signer on that wallet. Second, the team offered to refund the ELLA fund to the contributors of that wallet since they believe that core dev and his "advisors" are the same person and hold all the keys to the other wallets. Still waiting on response.
