the coins launch time was delayed. then it was forkedtwice. the best hing was moolah should have allowed a refund when the coin did not work at the first time. after two forks. wallet still has to be restarted. and blockchain data deleted before it works again. seriously? should we just acceptthis wallet is functional? search buttons arent working on alias. sometimes marketplace disappears. fuck even the copy features arent working in the wallet. its a total disaster. but we are trusting devs to deliver what was pomised. now if they didnt moolah said they will allow more 48 hours to devs. are those 48 hours over now right?

i have invested in this coin. but truth is truth

Does the wallet have some issues. Sure it does. But it also works. The amount of people who need to delete blockchain data to get their wallet restarted are a few, most people's wallets work fine in that regard. Mine works great in win7 x64 and linux. I've restarted it 100 times or more to try and break it. The reality is that everyone's hardware and OS patch levels are different... There is no way for a small group of guys to know for sure if some people won't have initial issues. You actually should expect to have a few. Great thing is that the dev's are working to fix those people's problems. Not only are they fixing them but they are fixing them quickly. Big companies with huge teams of programmers and far more money behind them often take weeks to fix shit.

Yes some of the gui for the marketplace is broken, but the marketplace DOES work via command line. Is this optimal? No. But does it work? Yes. Can these gui issues be fixed? Sure. Also the marketplace in the wallet is really the lite version of it. They do plan on improving the gui, but the real gem is the standalone web interface for people to integrate into their sites.

If anything, my only issues with the coin is the cost of using the features. The prices for activating an alias etc are insane. For the majority of people who will be mining this coin on a couple of boxes on their desk with gpus.. It will take FOREVER for those people to even mine a few thousand SYS. These prices only work for those of us with tons of hashpower or btc available to buy some sys with. For new comers to crypto, which is the majority of the untapped market, these prices create a major hurdle for them to use the platform. Granted in 90 days these costs will be far less than they are now, but even then it's still very high.
