We have received numerous messages from individuals who are, understandably, concerned about the lack of posts, missed ETA(s), and continued lack of visibility. We apologize for the poor communication and it is important to us that this community understands just how important they are to us (despite what seemingly appears otherwise during certain stretches). Yesterday, we had a board meeting to discuss how we could better balance communication, progress reports, and continued development and we have made it clear to our investors that ensuring this community maintains confidence in OctoCoin as a currency, an investment, and a business is more important than they initially understood. While the initial approach was that our results would do the heavy lifting for us, we are approaching 6 months since OctoCoin went live and a number of you have been with us from the start; we appreciate your confidence and loyalty more than you know - more than we show - and we fully intend to focus more effort on community building in the coming weeks as we begin to roll toward some of our goals and beyond. We have modified a handful of our projects due to slower-than-expected progress with some of the open source technologies we are leveraging but we believe we are making perfect the enemy of the good and, as a show of intent and good faith, we understand the urgent need to release some of these projects publicly even if they aren't 100% where we want them to be. We are working on assembling a hard timeline to make available to the public with penalties for key missed dates.

OctoCoin is bigger than the coin itself and the world will soon realize that there is nothing else quite like this. While we are proud to be a part of this project, it frustrates us immensely when we let this community down. The logistics involved here are insane; creating anything that never existed before is not sanity. Your concerns are heard, we are with you 100%, and we have forcefully broken free from the bulk of constraints previously preventing us from keeping the public communication pipeline more open.

In this world filled with dishonesty and greed, if it feels reckless to continue placing your trust in this faceless, seemingly elusive entity... we cannot blame you - your instincts would be accurate 99% of the time. Every persons life should include one reckless moment - let this be yours. If you have been with us this long, give us a couple weeks to prove ourselves to you and become a part of history.

We have delivered 6 months of hype - it is time to deliver on the hype. To win without risk is to triumph without glory and, for those still with us, we have unintentionally assured you will certainly not be robbed of glory; we look forward to basking in it together March 2015 in Las Vegas.

ive dumped my 20k coins a few minutes before you are going to post that statement. Srry but after almost one month without an update after the missing eta it was about time.
Good luck in vegas. You will need it with this amateur behavior
