Thanks for the reply. Can someone post an invite to the discord?

Why isn't this thread self-moderated? The trolls keep the thread bumped, but it's a waste of our time reading all the back-and-forth between devs and trolls.
Many coins with this problem have started self-moderated threads. Honestly, the trolling and responses make the project look bad, not good. If the project needs trolls to keep the thread bumped, there's something wrong with this setup.

Just wanted to drop by and say good job to the devs and community. Forks aren't easy, so we appreciate the effort everyone put in.

1 CPU = 1 Vote.

Oh that's cool. I was thinking we'd only be able to solo  mine from the wallet. Nice to know there's another option.

Doesn't everyone have a few rich friends? I'm not sure about money, but somewhere in 5 digits. Doesn't matter now, they moved on to Raven.
The web site is the first place I go to, for wallets, whitepaper, road map. That makes it easy. Telling someone they need to have an account on Discord, just to get info is a pain in the butt. We've been doing this long enough, it's easy to forget how many hoops we have to jump through to keep up with the news. People I know with extra money aren't interested in making that kind of time investment. They just want an investment with a decent return mid-term.
What should I tell these folks why the site has been down for so long?

I had two investors lined up for this coin. Both bailed, asking me how it could be a good investment when they can't even keep a web site up.
I had no response.
Get it together, if you want to succeed.
People are watching.

Any updates besides the logo?

Your business analogy is not that relevant. We're talking control, not ownership. I'm not sure how at this point anyone is not calling this a monarch coin. I'm OK with that, but it is so strange to me that anyone would say Rob doesn't exert an incredible amount of influence over the coin. In fact, if it wins or fails, it's pretty much his doing. He seems to control the direction a lot.  He pushes his agendas, and seems to decide which direction things should go. Will anyone here describe Rob as open-minded, mellow, and deferring? No, he's a classic Type A personality. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that, but it's so obvious to observe I'm unsure of how to debate a dissenting view.

The "Have you unkowningly surrounded yourself with only people that share your opinion?". That's a pretty funny projection. That's' the problem here, there's no real disucssion other than pro-Rob or anti-Rob. As a community, we really don't have much power. Even if we vote to go a different direction, Rob has stated he would quit. If the lead dev quits, the project is dead. That sounds like control to me. If anyone else quits, it's recoverable. If Rob quits, it's not. Not much of a choice when it comes down to it.

The assumptions and attacks on whether someone speaks for the community or not is ridiculous. We all have a voice, and trying to silence one says a lot. Communities that allow themselves to be torn apart and the monarch exerts control, usually die from lack of community support. This is just my observation from watching a whole lot of failed projects.

It doesn't matter how many lurkers there are. No one can guess that or speak to that. But one thing is clear, however many of them there are, they sure aren't buying the coin. Instead of pointing fingers, what is your idea Togo to get people to buy the coin. All this philosophy you and sunk are engaged in is empty if the coin ends up in the toilet like so many others. If we cared about the coin more, we'd address this issue instead of these debates.

That's the big unknown. I haven't seen much to indicate that the IoT piece is happening anytime soon. I would guess it's years away.

Quite a bump in supply then.

Wow, if ever a post could have used a TL;DR.

So the gist is a discussion about how many masternodes Rob controls, and how that affects voting and his power.

I think it's a fallacy to say someone needs 51% of masternodes to control the vote. That's only true if 100% of masternodes cast votes. I don't have a sanc because I have a moral issue with masternodes, but I have a hard time believing that 100% of masternode owners vote on each proposal. Does anyone know on average what percent do vote?

Even having 1% more than the combined voting power of those who vote, is enough to tip the scales. Even less than that is needed, because some people are going to vote with the dev or with which direction the proposal seems to be going.

I have no proof of anything, but my gut tells me there's something that's being hidden. The anonymity seems strange in this case. Maybe it's justified. Over time, I think less.

I think if larger investors are going to come back in, they're going to want to know what the real distribution of power is. I wouldn't dream of making more than a modest investment without knowing how the voting works in real life. I still can't decide if this is a monarch coin or not.

@HTHCoin, I was looking at the hth chart on cmc:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/help-the-homeless-coin/

What I don't understand is how recently, the market cap is growing much faster than the price. What causes that?

I like this one. It almost looks made out of wood.

That's like saying Dogecoin is unprofessional because it uses the doge meme. TRTL is supposed to be a fun crypto also, how could a fun saying like "cowabunga" hurt?

Interesting, thanks for the response. In terms of these charities, is there a way to leverage masternodes or something else to create some kind of ROI for these employees? Or is ROI a bad word in this case?

I don't, but considering they taken in ~$150M annually in donations, are we big enough at this market cap to play with them? Always trying to be practical, not negative.

Oh thanks. I confused the browser mining with PoW.

I find the concept of time-based mining to be very interesting. Instead of trying to constantly mess with algos to prevent ASICS, just use require a browser--problem solved.

So the browser mining is all gone after five months? That's the shortest PoW I've come across.

What does it take to get listed on CMC? Do you have to use their partner exchanges or something?

Yes, that's what Purepool calls payments in the wallet.
