Sorry, I was just feeling like we were being ganged up on. Shadyinblue used the word "deceptive" and as you all know I made double deposit as a solution to deception so it bothers me that our integrity was brought into question.

As for dissent, I agree with you. Dissent is okay, criticism is okay. I'm just reassuring you all that we are doing our best.

And saying we need a marketing budget is true. I'm trying to not waste money as it's illogical to spend unless we have a real solid budget and plan!

We can hope for the network effect, we can't count on it.

We have to see the realistic possibility of potential ways this can fail. Even though we all will run this blockchain until the end of time. We need to have a realistic idea of how this coin is going to get the basic investment it needs. If we talk among each other our time is better served going out and talking to others about the project.

So instead of worrying so much about the chart sites that are out of our control and the apparent wash trading which is also out of our control why don't we just focus on ways to attract liquidity providers?

If we only had a million in liquidity with maybe a half million in operational or marketing costs we would be kicking ass right now. And it's even more frustrating because people will spend a million on artwork or on a yacht. And if they invest here not only could they save our project but probably make tons of money doing it. We have the product, now all we need is the users.
