Yeah I have lost my faith in this coin.

The coin could easily be pushed so that the retarget would have been hit.  The dev could have paid the bounties to keep the coin going.  And The dev could speak up so we know something, or just to keep the channels alive and maybe draw some new people in.  Instead, he hasn't spoken at all on the Bacon coin thread, but he is all over the USD-e thread, meaning he is here and reading the forums, but it seems he has left and is mining something else as well.
