The coin is not dead guys by any means. It just requires some more hard work to get us where we need to be.
The anonymizer technology will be a game changer for this currency as well as entering into our original marketplace.
This is not one of those get rich quick schemes but rather something that was supposed to mature over time. My original gameplan was to have the coin mixer up no later than the end of the 2nd quarter of 2014 and to expect strong worldwide use and valuation by 2015.

Thank you for your patience as we continue to pursue that time frame.
I and others involved with the project have put in tremendous amounts of time and effort in order to provide our community with the faetures and infrastructure needed to thrive. In order to accomplish that, long hours were required by all involved and I personally put other areas of my life on hold to work on DopeCoin.

I am now just getting caught up with my day job and family based obligations and will spend more time and money on DopeCoin to get us to where we need to be. But please also keep in mind that I have other obligations in life, including earning a paycheck and taking care of my family.

I appreciate your understanding in this matter. Alot of time, money and effort has been poured into this project and the original plan is still a top priority of mine. If DopeCoin was the bread winner in my life and provided myself and my family with the financial aspect that is required to live, all of my efforts would remain there. But the fact is simply that I have not made any money whatsoever off of this project and have other obligations that I must also tend to. I am still trying to find the correct balance in order to handle everything on my plate in the best possible fashion.

I hear you on this and can totally relate. Some advice? Marshal your resources and then ask for help. You do what you're good at and pay others or enlist volunteers to do the rest. Don't try to be a one man show if you don't have to. Let's have some dopecoin fundraisers. Lay out to this community what work you need done or how much capital you need for bounties and what you're going to do with it. We could have a high rollers poker tournament with a sizable % going to the development fund. Your poker game is a lot of fun. It's an asset, utilize it. I'm willing to dip into my stash to put up for some bounties if that's what it takes. I'm sure others are too. My coin isn't appreciating any by me hoarding it.
