price of "long term" Gulden goes down, seems like bad news are right at the door.

Nah, looks like some stop hunting...and up again.

DEFINITION of 'Stop Hunting'
A strategy that attempts to force some market participants out of their positions by driving the price of an asset to a level where many individuals have chosen to set their stop-loss orders. The triggering of many stop losses generally leads to high volatility and can present a unique opportunity for investors who seek to trade in this environment.

Well I cannot see any unique opportunity of trade here. Stop being optimistic about this one. You have no scenarios other than "to the moon".
You keep saying that Gulden is cheap, where a currency cannot be cheap or something in economics. The price can be lower or higher than the past, but you cannot say it is cheap. The market decides the price itself, and for Gulden there is no demand due to several causes including the arrogance of the founders and developers. They just love the fancy word of democratisation, yet they go into another direction. Also, everyone talks about that Segsig will change the game, yet I believe the other good coins will be much more better when Segsig is done at this speed.

NLG is staying behind in value compared to many other at least as interesting altcoins.
If BTC goes up, SAT value of NLG goes down most of the times.
Also, there is hardly any volume in NLG, so we can conclude general interest in Gulden is very low.
Which is fairly logical, as more and more people start to question the development team.
There are just some traders trading on the penny, making a small margin between bittrex and nocks.

So far there is no proof, -for over a year-, if the Gulden team really is as brilliant as people say or they themselves think they are.
They have been testing for over 12 weeks now, after a period of automated testing and small inner circle testing.
The feedback is still close to zero.
Apparently they do not possess the ethics to properly and regularly inform their community who funded them with 600+ BTC
and made them financially independent.

Their repetitive arrogant "It is ready when it is ready" reply is very annoying.
The Gulden slack is a sad over-censored environment.
They even have bots in place that remove other coin names if you should type them.
And everytime anyone asks a good or smart question they do not like, there are warnings and removals.
The slack is run in a very scary totalitarian way.

Anyway, the complete Gulden 2.0 update has to be delivered February 28th latest.
Then we will see if there is some justification in their arrogant above-and-beyond stance.




You think that 12 weeks testing for 5 applications on five different platforms and rolling out a brand new blockchain at the basis of all of that is tooo looong? Then you are in for a suprise I supose. 😂😂

Gulden is faster then Bitcoin already, can handele 40 transactions a second versus 8 for btc already, has stable wallets, with HD linking to mobile. Transactions are waaaaayyy cheaper and ah well, you get my point. Stop complaining, start using it, as intended.

With all what Gulden has accomplished already, price is hillariously cheap! But it wouldn’t be a hidden gem if everybody could have spotted that. So sell your bags to me and get your asses into one of the one thousand scam coins of your liking. Plenty of $5,- whitepapers to choose from. 😜😂😂😂

WOW SUCH A BRILLIANT ANSWER

Well, who the hell did put the January 2018 as deadline on the roadmap? Even December 2017, August 2017, and so on.

Of course it is faster and cheaper than BTC, because there is only a number of transactions at Gulden network, and no one knows what will likely to happen with a small popularity.

With all what Gulden has accomplished already, price is hillariously cheap! But it wouldn’t be a hidden gem if everybody could have spotted that.

Cheap? What exactly are you talking about? What will you say if the price goes below 10 cent? Hilariously, superbly, perfectly cheap?

Seriously, when will you stop being such optimistic about two loser developers?

With all due respect, if high volatility, or devs missing deadlines causes you to lose trust I don't think crypto is really for you.

The Gulden team have given regular updates on development and explained why things are taking longer than originally planned. The upcoming update is huge. Would you prefer them to release it early with bugs? Would that make you trust them more?

It's not the Gulden team's job to do marketing. Marketing in crypto only creates hype which creates more volatility. If they were agressively marketing and creating hype that created more volatility would you trust them more?

What the Gulden team care most about is having the best product that gives the best experience to the user . They're well on the way to achieving this goal. This is why I trust them and is why you should too.


Thank you for response, and agree with you at some certain points. Yet, from business perspective, it is possible to create a potential timeline with error margins. For instance, if you believe that the project requires 6 months, then you set your deadlines with a possible margin of 1 month. Then the possibility of doing things on time increases. I worked with tens of developers, some of them were really good, yet all of them were not understanding the business aspects. I do respect the talent of Gulden team in means of development and vision, yet there is a need for some more. If you are serious about creating a trustworthy product, especially a cryptocurrency, you should avoid banning an opposing view at Slack, having closed borders for your community, and having limited communication.

I guess you are missing my point. We invest and plan to use Gulden, because it seems like no other currencies in the market. But the problems in communication and lack of business perspective causes Gulden to act like the other currencies. I am not saying Gulden should invest in massive advertisements or fake collaborations like Tron, Ripple and many other "big"ones do. What I say is that the team should value its community, while informing them and being transparent at any stage of development. I believe I am not asking too much, and the team can make it possible while employing some business and communication staff to learn something more than developing a perfect product.

Note: I have invested in 100k Guldens for my personal account, yet at corporate level we were planning to use as primary payment methods to our freelance contractors across the Europe. So, I am talking about "real use" of Gulden in business.

I also want to point out that Gulden team *is* creating trust, by adding value to the product that they work on

They aren't really a company that needs to create trust by being nice, buying Gulden is not like you are buying a piece of the Gulden company or something, you are buying a currency that they are developing, and if it is improving as a product -- and it is -- then I trust it

People are free to do whatever they want, but selling in a dip is a bad trading choice, that's plain and simple

That's not truly accurate, because the price is the most important part of our investment decision, and for a cryptocurrency, high volatility causes losing trust. I do believe the team is perfect in means of development, but they do not see why updating the community, therefore reducing the pressure on price are important.

One could also perceive this "lack of advertising" as a good thing.

The team is not interested in creating fake news or advertising just for the sake of inflating price -- they do heavy advertise when things are launched

I am not saying that I agree with how they handle things, but that's their way of doing and if you stop to think about it, it's more "serious" and "trustworthy" than a team that let things go loose and don't care about handling it in the most professional way possible, they really care about order, organization, and rules.

And if I am about to invest a huge amount of money for the long-term, I really want the team to be professional in the most professional way possible.



Missing the deadlines, making not a single word about how things are going, and without listening to the community do not fit professionalism. I see the team as a bunch of A+ developers while looking at their product, but management part is missing which results increasing concerns.

OK..I've made the account just to post this.
I am into Gulden for a long time already and followed them pretty much every day both in terms of development and price action. I am certainly not exactly a whale in this market, but I do hold about 200k NLG which I've struggled to accumulate all this time. At this point I am quiteclose to give up this project and sell everything. It is not because of the price, it is just because the development team is not reliable in terms of delivering. Those who follow the project and are honest with themselves know what I am talking about. The truth is that the word deadline has no meaning for them. They can post a roadmap on the website and just update it for as many times as they need, without any notice or explanations. There is no guarantee about anything when it comes to sticking to a predetermined timeline. If anything, someone will write on slack something like "it was just an estimate timeline" or so, even if that timeline is missed by A LOT, not only by a week or two. The problem is that some people invest in a project based on roadmaps and their estimated implementation time. You cannot just say "yeah, whatever, it's ready when it's ready".
So for everyone who is looking to invest in this project: it is not a scam, it really has a good potential, but be prepared to get frustrated and annoyed by the way this team works and communicates. They really don't have much consideration for keeping their word or for any kind of criticism.
That being said...I don't know what I will do, but for the first time I really started to consider alternatives (and yes, I am sorry for not doing this earlier).

Could not agree more. I am holding 100k Guldens, and was planning to add 1m in the following days, yet yesterday, the team has lost my trust. I was talking about the lack of marketing and communication at Slack, and guess what happened. I was banned from the group without any warning. I know that we are not investors of a company or a corporate entity, yet we are sort of early adopters.

I am running a company in Turkey, and we were testing to use Gulden as the primary payment method to pay our freelance partners ($100k/month), and the technology of Gulden was quite useful. However, atm, I am no longer in favor of doing so, due to lack of communication at Gulden, which causes huge ambiguities and questions on my mind. The attitudes of the team puts a certain pressure on price, and it is not wise to rely on such volatile currency and team behind (who has clear communication problems).

I am not sure about that they have full understanding of what managing a community is, thus the Gulden page is almost closed to me. Also, I do understand you have high hopes for the future and want to believe this will happen, but trust is my top priority, which Gulden team has no understanding of how to create and maintain it.
