If you are looking for shortterm investment, TOA is definitly not the right coin for you. It doesnt promise innovation, so investors can not speculate. It never promised anything into that direction.

At the moment BTC is low and so people lose trust into crypto and move their investments to more trusted and bigger coins. smaller alts are all down at the moment.

If you invest into TOA, then its for the longrun. Real and sustainable business takes time to build. Many have wrong expectations of how businesses are built, because they only hear of the few overnight successes, specially in the fast living cryptoworld.

Instead of bashing this coin, you can just dump your holdings, take the loss and move on. No need to waste your time.
Be the change you want to see in this coin. You want a TOA webshop? Create one. You want TOA to become known? Post on your social media about it. And so on....

I dont see a point in your FUD....its not constructive nor does it help to improve your situation....

don't call every appraisal/evaluation FUD. there's a difference.

if the core team believes in the future of toa coin, this belief should translate to better price movements. but with price ever slipping, what does this translate to? to me, it appears like the team behind this no longer have the passion and the drive to market toa. like there's just one person doing everything and he's burned out.

if there's a team here, then it's time for them to rev up and show the community that they're passionate about their project and that they truly believe in it. if there really is a business, how is toa used there? how is toa spent there? how are they encouraged to purchase and hold? are there incentives other than staking? what sort of excitement are offered so interests are piqued? etc. news that will spark renewed interest in this coin.

telling us about bitcon price dropped, so alts' price dropped as well or alts took a beating because bitcoin price rose, is not an excuse for toa price to keep plummeting.

there's a real reason why toa price is dipping and it's not because of bitcoin.

Yeah, youre right. FUD might not be the right word. I just think a bashing without constructive input is not helpful to the project.

TOA did everything according to their Roadmap and keeps delivering. Last marketing stunt they did was the referal program.
How would you suggest to improve the marketing for this project in a realistic way?

Its hard to keep the interest of the mainstream without overpromising. People always assume its easy to make partnerships with the biggest and richest companies...

look, in terms of access, toa is very accessible: you can have it in your mobile, notebook, pc. it's in the travel and tours industry and it has a running cafe so people can (should) have an active need for it. BUT is there a desire to keep and use it? would people with toa HAVE A REASON to get other people involved in toa? maybe go back to your swot analysis and translate that into something concrete. posting and telling the community to put up a site and accept toa payments is good but NOT GOOD ENOUGH. how can such people do that when the figures are showing NO FAITH in toa coin?

merchant tool services will have to start with toa getting a credible service to adopt it and that might give other merchants REASON to list that coin in their site / business. closing deals with industries that will accept toa sure is not easy but making that an objective and closing one will boost toa price because that relates to the beginning of utility and purpose, which in turn translates to the beginning of faith and belief in toa! there has to be a strong reason to let merchants accept the coin and for users to purchase and spend it. if this happens then that will initiate the cycle of utility and purpose for toa. it has to start with toa making the deals not obligating the community to start it.

where is the base of operations for toa? which key cities have toa hubs / cafes? is toa flourishing in those areas? because if it isn't, then maybe that's the problem. there's NO FAITH IN TOA EVEN AT ITS BASE!

Very good points and i have nothing to add to it, I'd like to see the devs answer to this.
