Can you post a picture without the sunglesses in case this ever ends in a scam?

I would trust Franko with just about any amount of my own money. Trust is earned, but he has earned it in my book. There are about 1000 pictures of Franko online by the way, he seems to like pictures of himself, haha. He even has maybe 50 videos of himself? Hard to get more transparent. Some others have mentioned they didn't like the sunglasses either, but it isn't on the website or Slack, and in time we will update the announcement thread as well and I will make sure no sunglasses are used then. (He just likes being silly sometimes for fun, really not an issue to be concerned with)

Here is picture of Franko without his glasses.



Cool. Hope i'll never have to take out a smart contract on  him.

Lol, no, he is actually a really cool person. A rarity in cryptos.

I am with known identity (I have even posted my ID here), but so what? PayCoin's "developer" was also known. You should both grow up. So far 99.5% of the altcoins (ot whatever asset/token) has no real purpose, instead cloning others and add some gimmicks. We should all work on spreading the word about them and accept the fact that Bitcoin is the King.

P.S. Personally I did not follow Expanse (except the fact that I've had several conversations with defaced in the past few years), but I did followed SHIFT. The simple truth is that you guys screwed people who trusted you. You can say whatever you want, but fact is that personally I tried to help and at the end, you guys called me a cunt. Period. Smiley

Reference 1
Reference 2
The end

Obviously we have to defend ourselves if we are personally attacked, you would do the same. We intentionally decided not to have a moderated thread, but along with that decision we decided we would vigorously defend ourselves when attacked. Pros and cons to each, but non moderated gives everyone their say, but there is no chance I will let him get away with spreading FUD without responding. It is moderated thread or respond, those are the only options for success.

Yes Bitcoin is King, and I can guarantee I have spread the world about Bitcoin plenty, but this thread isn't the place for that.

New low 0.00071536 and droping fast Think its time to sell what i have left and move on

Not much on sell books below 90k satoshi. I've been holding and will continue to hold even with these low prices. Expanse just launched last september, so I'm giving this one some time.

The simple truth is Bitcoin is nearing halving so some people are selling alts a bit more, including Ethereum and most others. That makes some alt devs desperate so they are out trying to FUD big time, hoping to lure people in and keep their price up. Super shady stuff, but just what we have to deal with in the early days of cryptos with no regulations.

Thanks for your support by the way, we do appreciate it and it means quite a bit. We also promise we will do our best to reward people like you in the future. Anyway, in a few more days I will have the first Newsletter out and there will be some news in it. Smiley

when the price comes down these Reserve Funds get close scrutiny.

ETH is no exception either
They just sold 1.8m ETH and are taking flack

https://twitter.com/VitalikButerin/status/723573508010348545

Point is that at least Devs go on with funding security - and increase mid/long term value (assuming their priorities are sound....)

Coins without funding just have a history of AWOL devs and no future

Without continuity of Devs its very difficult to restart a coin where they switched the lights off and went home.



This is absolutely true. Devs don't work for free, and anything we contract out we have to pay for, out of pocket entirely early on. Rest assured everyone on the team ALWAYS owns EXP, so getting some EXP slowly over time makes about zero difference whatsoever to price, as we are always holding some. We would only sell with increasing volume and prices, and even then only to cover what is needed, as we know the project is going to last and grow. Some stuff we have paid with BTC of our own, like the new website, but we negotiate the best prices for work as possible while still being fair. We HATE selling pressure more than anyone, we made it "rare" on purpose, and we designed the community funding, still untouched, to last forever very intentionally. (Check the Whitepaper for how this will work)

This is something we are going to be working on for many years, at least if everyone in the DAO wants that down the road. I can assure you that we will be building up the project in a manner that benefits holders and makes them as happy as possible, at least as much as can. We certainly want everyone satisfied as if they were a partner with us. Keep in mind Franko worked on his previous project for years with no funding just because he is honorable and he still supports it now. So now we have funding and a very stable core team with great contributors. Yes, it sucks when the price goes down now and then, but you can't have one without the other, and I am sure there will be glorious increases in the future as well. Smiley

Sorry, but when i read this it gets me (i do not speak for the rest of the team, the other 5. They do not even know im writing this.) really upset. You know for your self that you can not justify your zero "development" with several hundreds of BTC (300 BTC +). This gets me upset since it will make a very few people rich, and those who just started crypto, very poor. You really have no shame.

Traders have made a lot more money in Expanse than Shift, and traders have made infinitely more than the devs of Expanse. Although you are just making up numbers clearly, and discounting that EXP prices have varied over time. You are jealous, but why not be jealous of Lisk that raised 12k BTC for nothing? Why are you obsessed with us? Part of your problem is that you are a scam dev and you have to remain anonymous, that is why nobody puts much value in your project. They know they can't trust you. Development is also more than trying to come up with some different code, which we have done plenty. It is related to a variety of aspects in a project and we have tons of development considering all aspects. We actually are capable of making a custom block explorer and custom wallet as well, so I am not sure why you think you are so amazing, when you are not.

Besides, you used up your premine as you had no clue how to plan funding. You vanished after your dumped your premine, and you had the audacity to came back to Shift once Expanse was successful and made a new premine! (Hey, at least that is original, never heard of anyone getting away with that before) Still, I could care less and had no ill will toward your project initially, we could have even helped you, but you have been FUDing our project the entire time. Coming here without your team's approval shows your level of professionalism by the way, about zero. Anyway, you will avoid the truth as that is what you do by nature, but please share your real identity if you are not a scam dev. Seriously, why hide "Joe?" You also mentioned Horizon details at launch and claim no connection to Horizon, a lie, and later a Horizon team member was announced on your team. Fact is, you lie a lot, and people will lose money if they trust you.

You have not developed anything besides a block explorer. The reason for that is simple, Your so called developed cant code. If you want i can show his attempts..

So what you do is that you copy.. mergeing code from eth. Thats what you are doing. And for this you consider your selfs worth 300 btc.

Now, we should not go into the numerus currencys you and your team have been involved in. The people who have worked with you know too well how you work. Lets not go there.. we all know about your pump groups. Now you are slowly screwing the community over and expect Them to pay you 300 btc for copying.

This isnt FUD. You tell lies and are dishonest. Second, everyone knows that franco cant code. The word is already out there. So stop spreading lies and dumping on the small people in crypto and i will leave you alone.

Share your identity "JOEY." Everyone knows you are just here FUDing hoping that people will see value in your shtcoin, but you offer no value as a representative. Your own community tried to throw you out, you attacked them, there was a failed takeover attempt, a double premine even! That is totally garbage. Honestly, as an anon dev you are better off shutting up and starting over somewhere else. As for pump groups, no, I just buy early as cryptos are not that hard to figure out value for people with a brain. How to do well? Easy, avoid anon scam devs like you and stick with people willing to put their names on the project. You couldn't get ANYONE on your team to use their real name, that is pretty bad. If you want SHT to have value and you are not scamming, use your real name. Of course we both know it would go to basically zero if people knew who you were, but if I am wrong you could easily prove it, but you won't because we both know I am right.

We are working on a DApp developer recruitment program.

If you have an idea that you would like to work on let us know and we can provide you with some resources to help you with.

Now that's more like it!  Kiss

I would also mention we have a lot of reach in social media. The DES project was built on Expanse so we mentioned it, but we didn't promote it much as the dev is anon, so we can't be sure about it. If we were sure a dev was reliable and they built something on Expanse, we would promote it heavily for free to many thousands of people as it would be mutually beneficial. Yes, we can even work out a way to pay them some as well on top of that if it is good enough, as we want to get a lot bigger than we are and this could help.

If you really think mining is the problen then POS is your answer

POS only would certainly cut down on new EXP coming in. This is just a good time to mine though, or accumulate, as even if we went hybrid we would cut it down some then. (less daily new EXP)
391  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - Fair Launch, No ICO, Community DAO, based on Ethereum on: April 24, 2016, 08:14:15 AM
If you really think mining is the problen then POS is your answer


Reason being that POS encourages HOLDING and accumulation.

It simply rewards for holding.

I hope EXP goes to POS in the future like ETH

But a balanced mix of both POS and POW is more secure in the early stages of a coins evolution.




At this point that is the plan. There will be variations from Ethereum, but we will be staying current and will update when they do. Although hybrid is also an interesting option, POS should happen either way.

Yes you are right dump this shit, this coin is dead and community is full of assholes.

Im out  Grin Grin

Funny thing is the largest accounts on  Bittrex continue to grow.  Cheesy

Where are you ? DES team back online price going up. Hope you did not sell cheap.

I did, but all profit anyway so I bought back in a little, if things work out maybe I will get a couple more. I admit I am biased in favor of this project since DES is built on the Expanse Blockchain, and I am from Expanse.

I would suggest getting someone the dev trusts and stays in contact with to keep the community informed. Most anon devs abandon projects and we expect them to be scams until proven otherwise.
393  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - Fair Launch, No ICO, Community DAO, based on Ethereum on: April 21, 2016, 10:32:40 PM
Think price will ever get back to .003 I'm down over five bitcoin so far with where the price is now and seem to be a new low every day lately

Most investors have an entry point above 100k on EXP. I don't see the price going much lower, but just hang on and things will be good.

It is never a good idea to panic sell.

For those that have the funds patience (usually) pays off, but all that is guaranteed is continued development and progress. Expanse is here to stay however, so there is very little risk of the worst case scenarios that are in some other projects.

I would also mention Bitcoin rallying will create some temporary lower prices for Alts in general. Those that have been around awhile know this. When Bitcoin is stable, Alts do better. The great thing of course is that if Bitcoin does end up a bit higher, so does Expanse.

Just wondering what expanse is working on atm future roadmap holds instore been quiet except for a webpage

They are putting together a bi-weekly newsletter with progress and updates.  

Also, this document is worth checking out for those who haven't: http://www.expanse.tech/docs/roadmap.pdf

Yes, I am planning on putting those out on the 1st and 15th each month, starting the 1st next month.

yeah that tweet was a mistake, if you can't follow up within days than wait. whoever posted this should get 50 whiplashes to learn his lesson.
we could let the DAO vote on this
that beeing said keep up the great work  Smiley

50 lashes sounds about right. (haha) While I think stuff like that can be fun at times, hints like that are extremely easy to figure out if you think about it, and timelines are going to vary with implementation and acceptance by others in some cases.

I prefer never mentioning anything until it is ready myself, and quite a few other things are also going on besides this anyway. Smiley

two weeks is fine, this is software development not game of thrones

Yes, I mentioned weekly to the team a bit ago and they suggested bi-weekly, as it does take time for new developments and news.
398  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Announcements (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Expanse (EXP) - Fair Launch, No ICO, Community DAO, based on Ethereum on: April 13, 2016, 09:24:27 PM
Any updates from the devs?

What I was thinking might be useful would be a bi-weekly update newsletter. These would show what is currently being worked on, stats, and what has been completed in the last few weeks, along with any news related to Expanse like Destiny or any 3rd party dApps, and future DAO voting results once it starts.

Would a newsletter like this be useful to those following more casually? Perhaps start of the month and mid month updates?

Very true, that is one of the great things about mining, plenty of extra heat for the winter. (Nice mining set up there)

Its not the first time someone wasting so much power doing this...Very interesting... You are like CSI, but on the cryptoworld... following addresses on dark blockchains... heehhehe

Interesting, but if you look at Ethereum and most other alts they are also in the same situation with price, so the variance is more likely related to BTC itself I think. The halving event for Bitcoin, and concerns about the block size debate seem like the biggest factors right now. Although I am some sure miners do their thing for profit. (normal)
