@j4ce1 thanks I saw https://github.com/syscoin/syscoin/issues/34- this is a quick issue to fix we'll release a patch-fix for this ASAP. I'm working on Syscoin'd blockmarket (https://github.com/syscoin/blockmarket) this weekend, it'll be another front end in addition to that built at syscoin.market for users to interact with Syscoin Marketplace features.


There were already multiple coins working on decentralized markets. Competition is a good thing. The Moolah battle is about more than just Syscoin's funds its about accountability in crypto. In that same vein its about budgeting- we planned things against a certain budget, that budget is now gone. We're working on moving the coin features forward but with no funding and and a parallel legal battle things take time. The legal costs are coming out of our pocket- funded by our dayjobs- which are not developing Syscoin.

We've been working on this for almost a year at this point. We raised funds and had a lot going for us then we got ripped off. There is a still a TON of potential in this tech and we're working to push it forward. We're doing our best given the hand we've been dealt. As has been stated before we all work fulltime jobs, the presale funding was to be used to hire developers which we were doing; once the funding "vanished", so were most the additional devs. Now its mostly back to the core team, and our limited hours until we recoup our funds from Moolah. Until then we're keeping things moving albeit at a slower pace than we'd prefer.

Openbazaar was around while we were developing SYS, and looking at BitBay I'm not really concerned; def not a rebranded SYS if you look at their website it claims the only thing ready on launch is wallets. Everything is claimed to be in development / planned - including the decentralized markets. They're working on decentralized markets and other stuff, like many other coins are doing. We've done it, we need to dress it better and that's our current focus (both for Syscoin Markets themselves and the Syscoin Wallet as a whole).

For those efforts, all devs are needed including coderboo and myself. Coding during the hours which are available after work. Much of my time after work is taken up by legal. Also remember we're working on new features which need to be designed before they are built/released, and we have a number of private repositories in which we're doing work in order to protect our ideas before they are released fully. You can already see Syscoin Assets in alpha (publicly) in our Github repo coderboo has been working on that, and there are several features already in our core app that aren't properly useable for "average joe" users- rest of the team is focused right now on usability, games, and mobile apps. The features are there at the core level!
