Agree with you. I hope, XC source code does not resemble it.
Teka, when do you open the XC sources? Just for us to be calm.
I'm not the dev, I'm the community manager. The xc source code is not being open sourced for a long time as in years, we don't want clones of xc and people have asked for it not to be open sourced.
Thank you for confirming that the source code will be kept closed for years. This has finally put the final nail in the coffin.
No one is going to trust let alone use this for any transaction if its closed. This is the most centralized coin on the market.
Firegod, that's particularly unethical. You omitted my post on this topic.
I repeat:
Our official statement on this indicates that we'll release code on a delayed timeline, not all at once in the distant future.
Dan in particular prizes collaboration and sharing resources, and the way he engages other developers behind the scenes to implement aspects of the code is testament to this.
We will issue a fuller statement very roughly around the time of Rev 3 as to when/how we'll release the source code. For now though, here's our statement:
XC is committed to the open source model. Open source code is vital for the health and advancement of cryptographic technologies, and it is a privilege to share our technical breakthroughs with a community such as this. We believe that XC's code embodies several world-firsts enabling anonymity that is scalable, mobile-friendly, POS-integrated, and is ultimately a platform upon which a broad range of Blockchain 2.0 technologies will be built. However we have been under severe attack from competing projects. Furthermore peoples faith in altcoins is significantly hindered by clones. Therefore we believe that the ethical way to engage with the community is to make code available on a delayed timeline. This way, the community will still benefit from our work, while we'd reduce the incentive for developers to flood the marketplace with clones that lack a long term future and reduce the trustworthiness of the altcoin phenomenon. XC represents several market-leading innovations, and we are honoured to make these available to the community in the near future.Now slither off elsewhere.
