So the whale investors are deciding when the coin thread gets updated, and they "move slowly". That is a strange path for the technical development of a coin to be taking, delaying technical updates so that whales can "OK" the announcement. Im surprised cryptowest even admits that on IRC..

Why is that weird? If they're the one putting up the money, then it's natural they want to line everything up the way they want it before going ahead. Ever run a startup with VC money? I have. Largest company I co-founded took in about USD 30 million from VC's. You can bet your ass they insisted on having a finger in every major launch decision, but you know which investors are always the most troublesome?

Not the VC firms investing $10 mill each, but the guy who put in $10k. That's the guy that will be calling you to yell if you don't do things exactly how he thinks it should be done (the reason is for most "$10k guys", $10k matters; for most VC fund partners, a $10 mill investment will be one of a long list where they expect 90%+ to become worth 0, and it's not their own money)

I'd imagine any whales involved in this will be "$10k guys", not people investing other peoples money. So they will want to be heard.

lol, now they working on a "video", what a load of BS, how about actually working on the coin features that you guys announced months ago and not working on releasing 2 BS videos. what a joke. The time for promotional videos is long gone. Wink

As pointed out: mr_project - one of the team members - works at or runs a studio. So why not? If the commander and anon features are worthwhile, then getting the word out fast and wide will matter, and presumably it's cheap and not taking time away from the guys actually doin the coding.

"Why is that weird?" = because moosanyc has already claimed this is his own personal project not linked to anyone else, but now everything is being delayed by "whales" " investor backing etc blah blahb blah" , so for whales to be holding back an announcement that would increase the price then you must be saying they WANT the price to fall more, or am I misunderstanding you?

So why not make a video? = because we have already seen demos and crap like that, yes release a video, a video of some actually working and released features, not more "wait and see" , if they really want to release something cool the best way to shut up the fudders would be to stop talking about stuff for months and actually release something..if they were months off releasing anything why announce it so long ago, a much better plan would have been for moosanyc to pay for something to be created that works , THEN announce it. then he would have some trust. but instead he talk and talks and uses different accounts, then keeps talking about whats coming, then shuts up completely, and now we hear that they might be releasing a video, months later after announcing anon, nice one, that's the way to gain some trust 250 pages later!!
