Too much at stake to just let this coin fail. What ever the devs response is (if he does response) we will continue with the work and progress we have so far.
you can always use your work with an other coin, this one is fucked up, no credibility/confidence in it
I think giving up on the coin will just hurt the people that have invested time and money in this. If it needs to be even more extreme like a newish coin. Why not do something like honorcoin is doing? Starting a new coin with basically the same name, but supporting all the original investors by doing 1:1 trades into the new coin, but would hate to give up the name. XXXcoin I feel is the perfect name. Also opening up a short window to mine some coin to get in some new people.
Can that be done with this coin without giving up the name?
Have a Good Day
