This tech already exists in another currency which have this as their primary focus. I like the idea. But now you will fundraise this tech "again"? Great plans are good, but its taking away the focus on XC which is a excellent currency. And now i am starting to get worried, and the reason for this is that i have seen these great plans before in other context where talented people have lost their focus because they want to much. In 90% the plans are spinning out of control. In this case i am concerned that XC will loose ground.

More and more people are noticing this, and the answer that they get "trust us, its best for XC" like some sort of elitistic elite. BUT, if you do not have the peoples support in this you will loose. This is not some experiment, people invest real money into this.. im supporting wtih 1900XC, not much. But when 100 people with the same amount starting to get as confused as i am regarding Dan`s involvement in other currencys and this great plans, poeple will cash out.

I just responded to you. No need to repost.

Here is my response again:

That's like saying that the internet takes away focus from Google.

It doesn't. It enables Google to thrive.

Focus has *not* been lost. A huge userbase for XC has been gained.

You should all setup Xmixers right now. :-)

I think there is many more investors concerned the same way - that is why price is slowly sinking.

I don't want to talk about theory, let's learn on history.

Short example. Nicolas Tesla was a briliant guy. He invented a lot of devices which we use today. But he died in poverty, because he didn't care about people and investors (putting simple: PR). But Edison did care about people and investors. He was not brilliant, but he's company - General Eletric exists till today. Eidosn didn't die in poverty. Tesla did, because he woas focused only on "the thing" not "the people".

Besides I have seen many times good invention may loos with worse one, when there is great sales force and PR working on the other solution. You may have genious device, but it will die if not carrying about support.

I'm a tech guy also and I know people like me have more focus to things then people, but after all the oposite counts - people.

Conclusion is:
1) not paying attention to users (user friendly easy to install wallet)
+
2) not carrying about PR, centralised exchanges and investors
result = this great tech will loose with competitors.

I like this coin and still am an investor, but I feel not only technical things are that needs to be done. I simple observed this by my own that sometimes PR and connection is more important then genious device/code/concept and the poor concept win many times, because someone carrying about connections with people stays behind the poor concept he wins.

This is a curse of inteligent people, they don't even understant it's important Tongue

And then less inteligent, but having good selling skills (people oriented) survive with their sh*t solutions. That's why the world looks like it looks generally.

Tesla worked for Edison and the reason Edison was rich and Tesla was poor was because Tesla got ripped the fuck off by Edison, Tesla invented AC Edison DC, Edison electrocuted an elephant in central park New York just to discredit Tesla...Edison was an ASSHOLE!

Lets not forget , Edison owning a huge electric company, says to tesla "i will pay you millions to completely change build on and improve the infrastructure of the electric grid. TESLA does this and once completed edison says "oh you must not understand america humour or sarcasm , some bullshit like that. This moment in his life is what caused his HUGE mistrust of authority

This same thing caused edison and tesla to have conflict throughout their lives, There was even a chance for the both of them Together jointly 1 year to get a nobel prize, Their hate for each other caused neither one to get it. SO infact proves that collaboration would of hugely benefited the both of them

When they collaborated they created amazing things. When tesla died his worst regret was the animosity he held towards edison preventing him for further is own discovery and knowledge , that his battle against edison made him poor and penniless

His lack of willing to collaborate/ be part of something else/ working together was what got him in his situation of being poor

This could also be argued

CONFLICT AND FIGHTING COSTS VALUABLE RESOURCES , WORKING TOGETHER MULTIPLIES AND GROWS AND SPREADS RESOURCES FOR THE BENEFIT OF ALL INVOLVED

Ok agree, that example may be interpreted differently, but what I'm saying is good PR and care of informing and listening to people and investors can do much more then a brilliant solution.
Beside we see many currencies which are less advance and have much bigger CAP. And maybe they will colapse one day, but there is also a lot of competition which is sometimes also quite good. That's why I'm thinking that who will do better in PR will win.
And we also have a proof that carrying about peolple and building society works for cryptos: DogeCoin
And proof PR (getting exchanges attention) is a powerfull wepon: BlackCoin.

So the first coin which will be advanced enough (not need to be best), user friendly, with good PR and people support will be the one which will stay, even if it won't be the best one.

People are lazy, thats why PR is needed to get reach them. Sometimes we dont know we need a new better thing, before someone show us we can do better.
