Wow, two pages from last night of just BS.
Look, developers keep telling us, over and over they are sticking this through, they are going after Ryan and getting BTC back, but also still working on coin.
If you guys cannot see the importance of going after Ryan then i don't know what to say, scammers must not be a concern enough for you. I fully support their decision to go after him and make an example and restore faith in cryptos and this even helps out mintpal customers that lost coins. This is bigger than just syscoin, it's about nature of scamming in cryptos and needs to be addressed if cryptos are to move forward and be taken seriously.
That being said sure it would be nice to have some full time marketing, PR, BUT, with what funds, and also what is their to market yet? Not until the finished product for the storefront is out, and users can add to it, it's just wasted hype for those wanting a quick buck.
Also I see a much bigger problem here in cryptos, it's fact that coins cannot move past the getting out of being tied to BTC, and outside of community yet. This always cause constant hype, constant news in order to keep investors happy, since resources just move from coin to coin. For example someone probably dumped not cause they don't believe in syscoin, just cause BTC was raising in prices so they dump to take advantage of prices rises in BTC or other alts, then might come back and get syscoin cheaper than before.
This is a problem for all coins, we need to detach from BTC and not be pegged to it's prices and fluctuations that are not stable at all.
This is why prices don't matter right now, unless you are buying. But if you hold, who cares. This coin like some others in 2.0 are trying to breach the BTC peg and get out to mainstream with building a product, not by developing new gadgets and toys to play with that seem neat.
That being said, once syscoin gets their btc back and is in full swing AS THEY STATED WILL WRAP UP IN DEC, stop bitching and let them do their jobs.
I SWEAR CRYPTO COMMUNITY ACTS LIKE BUNCH OF ADHD CHILDREN SOMETIMES. Give them some time, they have fully be transparent with us, read the blog updates, I am starting to think nobody reads them, or this is purposeful attempt at FUD.
Yeah, syscoin isn't just about flooding with investor interest so we all make money selling coins for a profit on an exchange.
Syscoin service technology is meant to be used by businesses and enterprises. Or to facilitate new types of businesses (like SYYK and other such concepts) that have not previously been possible. Having a working marketplace example running might be good to use as a demonstration and to improve investor confidence, but any business who wants to leverage syscoin tech is going to build their own UI anyways.
Yes, people who download the wallet would want a pretty marketplace UI built into the wallet instead of using console commands. But the point of syscoin (IMO) is that eventually most of its user base not only doesn't use a wallet at all - they have no idea they are even using syscoin or blockchain tech.
This is a roadmap measured in years, not weeks, and the PR needs to be done when the time is right, not just to placate an investor who wants to dump their coin at 1000 sats to make a profit.
THIS. finally somebody who has it right! The potential for this coin is huge, and the main goal isn't to appease some asshole selling at .00001 btc. The goal is to improve on the proven but aging and featureless entity that is bitcoin. The first player in the market breaks the ice, but it is the players that come later and refine and massage the core concepts into something much more useful and user-friendly that will win in the end.
SysCoin has a lot of great ideas. Novel concepts don't materialize instantly. They take time. The devs have been working on this project for a year, and they continue to release new updates and features. If people can't see this they are just sheep anyway, finding the altcoin flavor of the week.
Could we use more pr? Yes, but there are a couple more core concepts that need to be released before the pr onslaught. Hodl your coins and remember why you bought SysCoin in the first place.
