The recent listing on Poloniex might be part of this relaunch — maybe we’ll see FUN getting listed on more exchanges in the coming weeks. Who knows, it might start recovering slowly.
Delays and communication issues aside, they’ve always paid — at least until now.
FUN token is already listed on big exchange such as Binance long time ago while Poloniex is already small exchange compared before that doesn’t have impact at all on token price except if the community hype the listing.
Freebitco.in is managed by different owner from FUN token. AFAIK they are not connected since FBC just invest on FUN token before when they are down.
I didn’t mean to suggest it was a hype move or anything like that. I just meant that maybe the FUNToken team has finally found a way to restart the engine — fixing a few things first, like reopening their Telegram channel, getting listed on a new exchange, and possibly aiming for more listings. Not necessarily to create hype, but to slowly rebuild the project.
As for whether Freebitco.in and FUNToken share the same owners — honestly, I don’t know. I have my doubts too. But it looked like, for a long time, the two companies worked in sync, maybe with some formal agreement that eventually fell apart due to various issues. Now they both might be trying to bounce back — together or separately.
From what little I see, FUNToken is at least moving again. Freebitco is paying and sometimes some mails for "wheels" (until now)
