If I remember rightly you're not very plugged in to the main communication channels other than here.
There was masses and masses of foundation activity. The employee levels were real. They achieved very little.
Technical development wasn't their prime focus. They were supposed to supply some developers on the side but came up with not a great deal.
The timing of all this is about as bad as it can possibly get. The 'new' direction may well achieve a lot more but people are rightly pissed off that there's not much to show for the effort so far. A six month breather before this was necessary would've been vastly preferable.
There's a reason why I would rather stay here. I value my privacy.
Now moving on, just admit it. You are looking for an exit point also, I see you on their official forum pandering to their dumb ideas (I guess I do keep up

).
What happened to "release the stakes to initial stake holders" anthem you so claimed for so long?
Just admit it, we are all looking for our exit point. This project has one last good pump because so many have bags they want to get rid of. We held on to our stakes even at the height just so some random person in Singapore that is 50+ years old with shady business tactics could exploit us at a rate of ~9 million NEM a month.
Don't believe everything they tell you.
