You guys seem really cool. There's no question that you are way better than an Init drone delegate. And I'd like your business to succeed. I'm just not sure why the store couldn't create the cash flow you need. I know it takes time to establish a profitable business, but the same would be true of a delegate.
Thanks for the tough love Donkeypong.
I hope to win you over.
Right now all you can really see in action is the store at cryptofresh.com, and while this already represents a milestone in BTS history, I can understand your skepticism, where’s the rest? It’s on the way.
You only mention the store in your question, but we are steadily advancing on three fronts, and additional fronts may be opened, as resources become available. We are nothing if not versatile.
We are two people with access to talented creators of all kinds. We also have to juggle outside work until such time as the community sees fit to bring us on, and allow us to throw our full weight behind BitShares.
We recognize this is a marathon, not a sprint. We will return more value to this ecosystem than we consume, and I’m confident that will become apparent in time.
The store itself is potentially capable of growing into a profitable enterprise, it’s true. We are working to make that a reality, and should we succeed, we will invest it back into the BitShares community.
Like mycelium which spreads far and wide through the earth, creating nodes and building energy, we have yet to reveal much of the ‘fruiting bodies’ which will come forth with the rain. The community taking action to vote in our first 100% delegate at this moment in history, will be like a light and welcoming rain.
