Hey Everyone,
I was just checking up on the status of the project, its been a while because last year 2020 was pretty intense and I did not have time to follow the community or updates.
Well my mind is blown, to read about the devs starting a new coin and the planned feature rollout for ECA going to ECAP. And all of the market and liquidity moving to ECAP from ECA.
I've invested almost thousand dollars and spent at least a hundred hours, and also staked and supported on reddit. So where does that leave me as an investor?
And where does that leave the electra project? this one is rhetorical, it's obvious the electra project is not growing or evolving for now.
ECP Air drops? A 10 day period? to claim an air drop in one of the most tumultuous times in recent human history? I never received an email or notification, and did not even come across this information or an ad, even in crypto news or on reddit until today.
I've read most of this thread, and twitter on the topic today.
I read about Electra01 the founder and the Dev's, now ECP Dev's, conflict and ultimately parting of ways.
It really seems unfair, for those that supported the community and for the loss on investment and time.
I have obviously lost some on exchanges, but I have my main ECA wallet with about 1,200,000+ eca. It used to be worth almost a thousand now only $27.
I think of, all the things the electra dev team promised and it instead being added to ECAP and then shirking long time eca holders and community is just as bad as any of the claims against Electra01 I've read.
Surely the dev's must of have known that people would not be aware and I hardly think sufficient notice was given or an opportunity to decide, instead a decision was made for us, at our, and my expense.
So my next question is when is the next airdrop? and if not, is the ECP team in the states meaning United States jurisdiction?
Secondly who owns Electra blockchain and branding?

To answer some of your questions,
The current Electra blockchain is owned by no one. I own the Github page but the code there is open and can be copied/forked but only I can edit the code on that page. At this stage, for someone else to change the blockchain code they would have to copy the code from my Github to their own page, make all the changes they want there and then release a seperate wallet and users to download. Even then, they would have to convince the exchanges, users and CMC that it is a legitimate ECA fork. If they cannot convince them it will most likely not replace the current wallet version.
No one owns the naming or branding rights and I do not think the ECAP fork could have been stopped if someone did own the rights.
I do not think ECAP is in USA jurisdiction. I think one team member has USA citizenship but that is it.
I do know that the ECAP team accepted late entries after the 10 day period. I suggest you tell them your situation, try to convince them and claim the airdrop you missed out on whilst showing evidence that you held ECA during the fork date. Sparing 1 million is not much from the 3 billion ECAP they control but they may not accept simply to not encourage more claimants. That part is their decision.
