Dev team.. dev team.. there is no dev team this coin has much potential but with no devs arround it won't happen. Were are Wes and Norb?? haven't seen them arround sinds that chat session about the premine... they only responded because they were affraid for a witchhunt imo. Biomech great addition to earthcoin but he has nothing to speak about anymore I think. We were promised a weekly update on progress etc. Current dev team realy failed they have had there chance!! I mined and bought at 150 at 100 at 70 at 50 at 40 at 20 at 10. Since then no progress at all in the core developement.
We have a great name great site earthcointalk earthazaar a android wallet but it all failes because of the current dev team!
I realy hope that John the original founder of earthcoin reads this, please come back and help earthcoin back on track.
Help us John you're our only hope!

Sorry, Real Life has come down on me like a ton of boulders. I do try to post something every week.. But as for official updates the best I got right now is that we are working on an outreach to charities, a plan to implement the coin in developing nations as a payment platform and easy exchange, and that the programmers are very close to finishing a new wallet. They are also trying to get out an update of the current one compiled against a heartbleed safe version of openSSL, but might be ready to go with the new wallet @ around the same time.
There are some other projects as well, but right now they are too tentative to be revealed.
We always aim for the longer term, but right at this moment there is a lot of activity, but not a lot of progress. We does what we can...
It should also be noted that simple participation on the forums help. Earthcointalk.org is a dead zone, with the exception of a few users, and I don't know if there are any lurkers. We need to show confidence in this coin as a community, or potential new members will continue to look past us. Get active in forums, even if only to only show a presence. I did a 10,000 EAC giveaway at
www.earthcointalk.org with what I consider a horrible response, it ended up going to a new community member (which may actually be a good thing as it shows at least some outside interest.) but it would have been nice to see some familiar faces come out. If 10,000 eac wasn't worth 2 seconds of your time than I apologize. but what does that say about how the community views its value? It was an attempt to get some interest back in the community and from what I seen, it failed.
