Hey,

Guys I'm here, sorry for the radio silence. I've been dealing with a lot in regards to the Blockswap fall-out, and other news related to token legalities.

Basically, I think we've come to a solution in regards to the locked-in RBX. I've worked with Rob, CEO of Incent, and they're going to be sending RBX to each address that has ever sent RBX into Blockswap to be swapped to Ethereum.

What this means is that, if you tried to test out Blockswap prior, or participate in the RBX Blockswap airdrop a while back that got all kinds of messed up, you'll get that full amount of RBX that you sent in, back.

They will be sent directly to the sender address, meaning the address you swapped with. We cannot switch addresses in the event that you no longer have access to that particular address. It would be too easy to spoof, so I'm hoping you guys have the seeds to your wallets or you still make use of them.

Anyway, I know it's been a while, but I'm extremely happy to have been able to get this done for you guys and to finally bring this to a resolution. I couldn't have imagined Incent Blockswap would end up in the circumstances that it did.

That said, you can understand how this will mess up distribution amounts on Ethereum RBX ... so I unfortunately regret to inform you guys that we'll be pivoting away from dual-chain Waves+ETH in it's entirety. Ripto Bux will remain as a solely Waves based token.

My reasoning is that, if these types of issues are possible with 3rd party trusted gateways, even if we run our own implementation, I just don't want anyone to have any RBX tokens put at risk of anything like this happening again. Even though they were distributed for free and not through an ICO, I just don't feel comfortable with that being a possibility.

We did of course actually build out the tech on the Eth side, smart contract and all... We're (jkatz and I) not sure what we're going to be doing with it. I'm not making any promises that it'll be used (I'm sure a lot of you guys saw the twitter gif we posted from the RBX account a while back.)

So, RBX will return to its previous status as the official Waves community and Waves platform tipping token. I know that's a bit underwhelming especially considering what we built, but it's what RBX was first brought into the crypto world as, and its honestly the best use case for it at this time.

Myco still works on his tip-bot, and RBX will go with it to whichever slacks the bot hooks up to, as it always has.

Additionally, there will not be any more airdrop distributions. This is, from a legal standpoint, not something that I want to keep doing, especially with recent developments in the space. I hope that you all can respect this decision.

Thanks for being with us guys.
