Tossing out Rhett was a smart move. I'm surprised they did it. But to be honest, I'm impressed.
Next step is to toss Jake/CryptoJake/Jacob Brutman/Jake the snake/ on his butt.
If they get rid of both those liabilities, this coin could have a future. They need to get rid of them, and then make sure the whole crypto community knows that they have bee removed from the project. Once this happens, investors will return and exchanges will consider working with BTCP.
Has there been a statement from any of the guys that Rhett is finally gone? I didn't hear or read that anywhere.
Yeah, they have basically stated that he was removed from the github. Which doesn't matter much since he never contributed anyways. He still seems to be a moderator on their social media. As far as going forward, Rhett doesn't matter too much. He's already done his pump and dump, removed his lines of code, and has been quiet.
Jake on the other hand, is always actively pissing off exchanges, investors, and others and making the coin look like it's ran by children. They really need to completely get rid of both of these liabilities to be taken seriously by exchanges and investors. If they had someone with experience in the crypto business with good connections, that knew how to build bridges and make deals, this coin could do very well. Jake will just continue being Jake and driving opportunity away with his arrogant and controlling way of doing things. This is much worse than Rhett sitting quietly on the sidelines enjoying his pump and dump money.
