Hey Traxo,

Can you ask Shelby when he plans to publish his project? Will it be in 2018? Because his plan was to do it end of 2016.

I just asked him in private chat. Here's what was conveyed to me.

Please refer to the links in his most recent blog about the illness that slowed him down so much.

He has been seeing a very slight and gradual improvement in his gut health in 2018.
Remember it was in 2017 that he did the 6 months of very liver toxic antibiotics for curing the Tuberculosis.
He is 53 this June, so it's a difficult recovery for him considering that his gut was already messed up (perforated acute ulcer that burned his internal organs with stomach acid in 2012) and numerous tropical infections he accumulated such as Dengue, etc..
He was also prescribed 24 days of fluoroquinolones in 2012 which are known to cause long-term side-effects.
He has problems with his Achilles tendons now which is one of the known long-term auto-immunity impacts.
Those antibiotics basically destroy athletes.
Probably why we are seeing so many ruptured Achilles tendons in the NBA now and can be due to the dye they use when doing MRIs routinely which accumulates in the brain.

Anyway, his health was in a mess, yet he is still athletic even for his age and trying his damndest to fight and recover.
He just started taking baking soda (see this: https://medicalxpress.com/news/2018-04-soda-inexpensive-safe-combat-autoimmune.html), to try to mute the autoimmunity cascade (that will then cause sudden pimples on his face and chronic fatigue) he gets after every meal. For example, he mentioned the baking soda and gut health in recent discussion on Github.
He has cysts all over his spleen and liver and these cause episodes of chronic fatigue and brain fog that make it impossible to think and work.
As I said, his condition appears to be improving and he is gaining more and more consistent hours where he feels alert and can work.
And he recently completed 16 consecutive days of running and gym workouts (boxing, barbell, etc).
He got his 40 yard dash time back up to the low 5 second range which isn't too bad for his age and health condition.

So presuming his health continues to stabilize and especially with the baking soda treatment which he thinks is having a positive effect so far, then a 2018 launch is within the realm of possibility.
But if his health continues to slow him down as much as it still is even now, then not likely a 2018 launch.

He is sparing no minute or ounce of energy trying to willpower his body and also to try to find more suitable people to delegate to.
But it is very difficult to find experts to delegate to because most people would rather work on their own projects because everybody wants to sell their own ICO.
The ICO bubble is killing any sort of rationality on the part of programmers and engineers.
The rational ones are staying in their existing careers and not shifting to blockchain work.

I will update you as the situation and prognosis changes.

When can you take my money?

When @anonymint remarked in chat that I would be able to brag that I am crypto expert (because of the knowledge of his I relayed recently), I joked to @anonymint, that I would pretend to be him, launch an ICO and then disappear to Kiribati. Lol.
For the record, @anonymint says there will not be an ICO. Instead there will be a decentralized onboarding which will enable speculators to obtain CRED tokens in the free market.
