Re: [ANN] [VIA] ★ Viacoin ★ ~ the future of digital currency ~ ★
The beauty of open source projects is that anyone can participate in taking the project to the next level, not only btcdrak & co. It was not Satoshi who made bitcoin happen - he just layed the groundwork, other people continued and built on top of the foundation.
Via needs something like that exactly. But so far, there's nothing. So we can't really blame the people who invested in this project for getting mad because via isn't really going anywhere. People invested their hard earned money in this. And the only thing that makes this project look good right now is Peter Todd being on board. So imagine if he left... Confidence in this project would plummet faster than it is now.Yes, this is exactly what VIA needs. Viacoin has a bunch of features which can't be found on other blockchains, VIA needs people who are willing to experiment with these features, VIA needs people to build on top of ClearingHouse and VIA blockchain. However, it is not drak's responsibility to 'recruit' people to do this. Drak (along with Todd, etc.), is a developer laying the basis on which others can build applications.
We can't really blame Gavin Andresen either, when bitcoin is tanking.

I think it would be good for the sake of the project. If Drak wants to remain anonymous, at least organize a team of capable people that could take via forward.
I mean, how do we know Drak is capable of taking it to the next level if we don't really know who he is.

Satoshi did not raise 600+ btc.
No, he did not. He mined over 900k btc and vanished. That's a story for another time though. :^)
I can't think of any legitimate reason for "investors" to demand any personal info on viacoin developers. It's pointless in my opinion. What would an "investor" benefit from knowing this info? Also, using the term investor in this context is a bit funny, since the viacoin presale was in fact... just a presale - a different method of distribution compared to mining from genesis block onward.
@ tokeweed: You are allowed to ask and I am allowed to express my views on the topic. I do not care who Satoshi is, it has no significance on bitcoin and blockchain technology. I can understand why some people do care about this stuff though, but it's all a bit silly imo.

There's absolutely nothing positive, not one thing, in being anonymous in a project based on the trust and confidence of its investors. Nothing positive, for those investors, that is.
I don't see how this project is based on the trust and confidence of investors. Care to elaborate?Also: Satoshi Nakamoto?
Satoshi Nakamoto is proven to be trustworthy.
We have no clue about Satoshi's identity though. Why should we have to know anything about btcdrak's? How would it even affect drak's trustworthiness?
Check the github to see the other people who have contributed to Viacoin project.
