Guys the XBY technology is not a secret to all.

There are people I know that state they understood some of the details that are still kept secret by you and they say it's possible to implement it on other blockchains.

So seems like your ideas are valid, but the way the whole thing is being carried on doesn't let XBY to evolve.

If you decide to make it opensource, to stop having moderated bitcointalk thread, stop asking people's phone number to speak on your Discord (all signs that someone was not able to cope with criticism), maybe you'll be able to have a better support of the crypto community.

Another weakness is that the promises should be kept. If the management has promised to reveal the details of the technology once you'd have pending patent status, the thing should be done. The school is not the idea that will give you traction at this stage.

Now that Dave has gone, you can consider the above things. The way the things were managed so far has brought to the results we are seeing and they are not that great, considering you have a relatively big team.

I don't care if you delete this post or about what you'd answer. Just don't let this project die, it would be a pity.
