If I understood correctly soft cap is already reached and more than half of the hard cap was also reached in the private sale, right?
Exactly, Zeex is a very healthy project with clear goals, use case and practically finished product so this delay with public sale is a bit annoying, but it is better for the project overall.
Its a pitty that the public sale is delayed but since the market situation is pretty bad right now - I can understand why the team made this decision.
