Same here; I hadn't followed Syscoin before the launch but heard that things weren't going so well and took a punt at below the ICO price (followed by a bit of churning). As a software engineer myself, it was clear to me that that the problems stemmed from lack of production-scale testing and that they'd have fixes within a few days.

The coin has some excellent features and gives us hints of the DACs (distributed autonomous corporations) that are surely in our economic future. I'm going to hold for a bit.
