If you don't donations under PESA, then it is of no point. If the dev themselves don't believe the price of the coin will rise then there is no point.
It didnt look like a serious offer , especially since they put in the donation addresses themselves , asking for BTC and Pesa upfront looks very scammy , not to surprising they didnt get enough donated.
If it had been Jakethepanda posting the addresses with him as escrow then there would have been donations at least from me.
