Have you read the 'Updates' section or our whitepaper?  We have plenty of plans currently in development. Smiley

I keep stressing the word patience because people shouldn't expect miracles to happen overnight.  Things take time to develop, just a fact of life.  Have faith in BritCoin, we're doing everything we can to make this work and need support.  Ask yourself what have you done to spread awareness of BritCoin?  Remember that BritCoin is a decentralized currency, I nor any of the BritCoin staff own BritCoin, its success is fundamental dependant on the users, all of us.

If you complain the price is low, there's a good chance you're partly the reason why. Smiley

Can you please quote first and then reply below the quote? It makes it easier to read and to re-quote Wink

Yes I have read it, and in each step you keep asking for the community to get in touch with Coinpayments.net, pock.io. You ask the community to tweet Forbes, BBC, Wired etc. You ask the community to develop an Android wallet/Block explorer/Multipool/Promotional video/Marketplace. Ofcourse the community needs to partake, but it just feels like you rely a bit too much on it.

Yes, you are in contact to get FIAT to BRIT and to get public ATM's, which again is good, but why would the average joe want to buy BRIT? What makes it special, what are the advantages over Bitcoin for instance, other than the obvious faster transaction times and PoS interest?

If you really want to overtake PayPal and Skrill, which is a huge goal, what are the steps you will be taking to get there?

You have said you've been working on BRIT 12-16 hours a day if I recall correctly, what are these hours spent on? Does it really take 12-16 hours daily to e-mail third parties getting them to accept BRIT?

Again, I really don't want to seem to negative, I have been tweeting about BRIT as well and getting friends to buy in, but there seems to be a lack of actual real developments.

[edit] And I think you should have some BRIT, to have more incentive to keep building and developing. Can you open a donation address?


I have been in touch with coinpayments and pock etc and they've told me they will add BritCoin is there's sufficient support from the community.  So asking the community to support us is not being overly reliant on them, it's just something that we need to do.  And as far as development bounties go, that's the reason we had the 1% premine.  You really think it's wise to take on 8+ development tasks in one go between a small team of us, or is it better to offer bounties to people who have more experience in whatever they're developing and have it done much quicker?

For example we're re-launching our website (britcoin.io) this evening, tomorrow we have our PR release distributed and we're hoping our fiat to brit platform will go live soon.  So we are working on important things, we just know we can get even more done with help from the community.

As for your questioning of my hours spent working on Brit I don't think you understand how many people/partners I have to deal with on a daily basis, sending and reading emails, PMs, tweets etc takes up a lot of time.

BritCoin is just over 3 weeks old now and we've come a really long way in that time, as I've said before everyone needs to be patient and good things will come. Smiley

Thanks for your support so far btw, hope you'll stick with us and we'll see how far we can take this project. Smiley
