AltCoinUK and Barabbas:

I could rattle off a list of things I have done to help VeriCoin but that's never been my style.
*I've also never asked for a single donation either.

Instead I'd rather write a short list of things that I had NOTHING to do with.

1. I had nothing to do with any negotiations with Moolah.
2. I had nothing to do with any negotiations with CoinSis.
3. I Skyped with Wizrig ONCE only to get his side of the story. We are not "friends" - but he's certainly not my "enemy" whatsoever. *Never met the dude.

- I don't program. If I did... I would certainly be using that talent to help VeriCoin.
- Neither of you came up with the idea of creating a DeCentralized Exchange. That's on EVERY LEGIT alt coin Devs mind. It's simply not EASY to just... do.
- You're a programmer? Good - get to coding a DeCentralized Exchange. Can't wait to experience it.

I've found success in other areas - mainly in the entertainment industry but also in marketing.

I was the owner/operator of www.GiantStarRecords.com - A professional recording studio in Calgary that focused mostly on Hip Hop.
*It's been closed since 2012 and I now live in Florida.

I have nothing to hide. I don't feel that I've done anything "detrimental" to VeriCoin - the brand or community.
In fact - quite the opposite. Only a few know what I've done - mainly the Devs - and they've been appreciative of it.

There are many things we're all working on... aside from the SuperNET DeCentralized Cloud Storage feature, revamping the VeriLeader Program and "BitVeri".
Plus much, MUCH more. But I digress.

Don't call me a "scammer". I have nothing but the greatest intentions for this coin and when it eventually hits $1.15/share - without a "pump"... I hope you'll reconsider your opinion.

This isn't going to happen overnight. Or over a week or a month. We're here for the Long Term. Not "Crypto" Long Term... long term LONG TERM.
I've put aside the next five years of my life to make this happen in the ways that I know how.

Right now you may sneer at $1.15/share... seems ridiculous. I know.
But as it stands... with the features it has... VeriCoin is a MUCH better, more useful Digital Currency than BitCoin.

That's not an opinion. That's a fact. Think about it.

BitCoin has "first mover" advantage - by a large amount - but VeriBit automatically levels the playing field.

The near term problems we face are:

1. General Awareness in the Public Sector - We need to raise awareness about the INDUSTRY/CATEGORY (as a WHOLE) - not just VeriCoin itself.
2. General Awareness in the Merchant Sector - Same as the above with the only difference being in how we market the benefits of VeriCoin vs Fiat etc.
3. Differentiation in the Current Market - We need to be the most useable coin there is. Period. That goes for average consumers as well as the Crypto demographic.

We are attempting to address these issues and obvious pain points but IT WILL... take time.

Any and all help from the core VeriCoin Community is more than welcome but what we don't need is conspiracy theories and relentless, unfounded criticism.

I'm not sure what else to say.
We all know that once $VRC hits a certain price point - you 2 or 3 individuals are going to dump it.

We're prepared for that and will keep marching forward regardless - with or without you.

Until then... bag hold and help us out or just... bag hold.
