When will qrl get a real spokesman instead of some guy with an anthropology degree and a hippie haircut who unconvincingly stumbles through his lines?

Peter Waterland's amateur experiment with PoW phase and mining difficulty is now coming to bite hodlers of qrl.

Incidentally, this bombshell decision was suddenly dropped on the world. Zero prior consultation with community. Decentralization my ass.

You wouldn't know it from their awful publicity, but they are laying the pipes for crypto permanence.

It's not just this one problem, but the entire litany of problems casting qrl in an amateurish light.

By fucking around with mainnet and marketing qrl support has fallen into a reverse Fibonacci. To claw back qrl needs to regain trust and start to look like adults.

Let's hope you're right about the marketing. They are really, really pushing the boundaries of danger with their clueless experimentation.

Loud pink splashes on useless things like buttons and frames, not a logo element. Complete misfire of art design that only works if you want to scream friendly amateurism.

Yeah, website in pink. Unannounced change.

People. protest. gently.

Response? No action yet. It will change in the end, but it would take more people howling into their ear.

You can't make this shit up. In this day and age, does anyone still think it takes a big budget to do a corporate website? Just another day of "kid with crayons" at qrl headquarters.


Note to qrl - there is speculation that there is strong interest from Korea. Here's the hard truth, you heaped scorn on a strong backer in your chat and banned him, now he's organizing research which accounts for a third, maybe half the traffic from that country. I couldn't believe it when I got the news. What's your problem, too many allies?

Their latest post is summed up

• TL;DR — QRL has and will continue to evaluate its communication strategy and overall structure to best address the needs of the project as they continue to evolve.

Koltun continues to write a pile of dense prose, signifying nothing. Once more, he crows "we heard you", "we have been doing well (best!)", "there are many important things to say but we can't say it" Is there a concrete proposition in the whole word salad? Contrast this with NicoIdea's reddit post.

This update glosses over real concerns about the inadequate communications which is holding back qrl adoption. Problems leading to huge dips in price and volume are all externalized. They refuse to own up to criticism. It does not augur well for qrl.

Keep blaming the bear market and the altcoin spasms, but let's be honest, qrl is not doing great even against that backdrop. Backers and community influencers will shift to other options if this stonewalling continues.

This tone deafness is the reason why many have rumbled, not without moral justification, that someone in the qrl leadership is quite happy with these depressed prices. I've already gone on record to say that Cardano is inferior technology, but just compare the chart movements. It's hard to get excited when the makers of qrl piss on supporters all the time.

I've got an idea. Feature qrl on Trevor Noah's segment You Done Effed Up  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auprk79N3Fo

Real action to solve a systemic weakness? Good. Any news?




Tell that to this guy

Here is something written by someone who has a lot more patience and skill than me, perhaps from Europe: https://www.reddit.com/r/QRL/comments/b28x0a/assessment_of_qrl_marketing_and_communication/

I know two backers who moved out of QRL because of the problems pointed out in his post. They had experience and the ability to inject support. But they were ignored in the slack/discord and so they moved on.  Will there be more backers?  There is room for optimism, because QRL does have selling points and technical substance.  But if qrl continues to ignore obvious, basic problems, they will burn their bridges down the road.

Dezeyay likes that reddit post and brings up Vitalik Buterin. For qrl, the founder Peter Waterland / inca / joloffe  takes no part in publicity. Many people have complained about that too.

Maybe the GAB will undo RP's mistakes and send a strong signal to the world. I have always said nlg only makes sense at higher support levels like 0,20 EUR or 0,50 EUR

Can you read? Because it's all there.




How about... and I'm just spitballing here, writing a professional report, or not writing one at all?



Or how about this


Specific enough? I even invited you to judge for yourself. Not shilling or shitting. How dynamic, effective, inspiring was this presentation? Bear in mind this is an audience of CTOs and developers for potential launches on the qrl platform.

Golden advice, but not needed. Different topic

Then they should crawl into a hole and die because they are playing with people's money and making themselves a handsome profit.

Way to go. Shill and divert. Stick your head in the sand!

Pretty soon, the excuse of "minimal spend on publicity" will morph to "not a big team", "not many developers onboard", "not many exchanges" and so on. Whatever excuse works!

A new troll.


How would you know how I would manage this project? A while ago you agreed qrl publicity was bad. In life there is such a thing as a scale, a spectrum. So, if I suggest spending more and not making counter-productive "conference reports" you would have me spend everything in 3 years? Classic internet logic.

As for the incidents, the market has spoken. Your "get over it" and what I desire are ultimately irrelevant. qrl just needs to change a non-winning plan.

Newbie troll alert. Skip

These mindless shills are hurting qrl in the long run. The mutual admiration parade and lack of accountability (pos -> pow, founder dumping coins unannounced, mainnet delays, minimal spend on amateur publicity, etc.) account for why qrl has slipped in market uptake.

Be my guest and remain a newbie.

What are you, newbie? A shill for Adam Koltun?

Find me a post where I said qrl is technically deficient, and then we'll talk.

Your lack of reading comprehension is fascinating. Your straw men, juvenile.

Maybe you do have some substance to contribute. Right now you have an awful lot to prove.

You debunked yourself.
