So yes, you've ceased all activity in the community's eyes, regardless of what you say to the contrary. You may be working incredibly hard in the background, but you've got nothing to show for it. No updates. No dividends. No financials. No recent news articles promoting any of the startups you support. There's nothing going on that would lead any of us to believe that you haven't ceased activity.

I'm sorry but you are completely wrong on this area.

Most recent update. Should they have posted it through Havelock probably but they promoted it through Twitter. All of the start up companies, Seedcoin itself and CEO Eddy Travia have been very active in Twitter posting consistent updates. How did you even try looking? Seriously a simple email to them would have provided the information you needed. I've emailed them several times and got replies usually within 24 hours (time zone differences make it difficult to get them right away).

Even beyond that the companies and Seedcoin have spoke at many bitcoin conferences with meXBT just recently announcing developments at money 20/20. About a month and a half ago cryptopay announced their project Jetcoin and sponsorship of a football player.

The information is easily searchable I don't know why you couldn't find it. If you want to stay up to date get on Twitter and follow them it is by far the easiest way to stay up to date.

I found that link, yes, but that's the only recent update they've had (outside of twitter apparently, since I don't follow that, but that falls on me). Nothing on their own website.

I misspoke earlier, and thus stand partially corrected. I understand the companies they support have been active. My weight on the word "activity" was directed more toward Seedcoin themselves than the projects / companies they worked with. The way I see it, money was given to Seedcoin...which went somewhere (and you can't assume it went to the companies they supported until they can back it up with data)...and then that was pretty much it. For all I know, Seedcoin may have barely played even a minor role in the development of some of these companies (especially if they had additional outside funding / support besides Seedcoin), even though that may not be the case at all.

I understand and agree with your points, and I understand Seedcoin's point of view as well. I'm just hoping for others to see the other side of it; since when is it appropriate for a company, one that raised a couple thousand Bitcoins, to not make a substantial effort to communicate with the people who funded them? 140 character blurbs every couple days doesn't qualify to me, but perhaps some people find that comforting.
