Technically you paid for "Spreadcoin" and you already have that in your wallet. How exactly do you pay for a coin that is not launched yet when there was no ICO. Look at your order details or transaction id. You need to check your understanding of Projects you "pay for"

As someone who has signed this manifesto since 2005 and worked on various Agile projects. I like to say it is not quite the same for this Project as these "Customers" have no feedback into the backlog or requirements and are really not owed any update as they are not "stakeholders" in the sense they do not pay for the Project nor have they determined what Helium should be or is. Updates are usually given to Customers to manage the backlog or establish priorities.

When Helium is launched and the governance is in place and you as a Masternode holder has made a vote on a Project, maybe then you can demand updates because you determined what should be done as a Stakeholder.

Helium uses the Agile method of development does not mean they should be accountable to everyone. Accountability is to Stakeholders. If Google where to design a open source tool for everyone or anyone, using Agile methods does that give everyone off the street a right to an update?  I think not. When you pay the piper you call the tune, until then sit tight and relax.

Well i had the fortunate or unfortunate pleasure of staying up till 2am last night seeing what this webinar was all about..

Basically the entire webinar was scripted, someone had leaked the entire transcript of the webinar 4mins into the start and the entire webinar was scripted word to word even the supposedly Public Q&A this was scripted too, doubt it was live seemed pre-recorded was just too perfect for it to be live.


So obviously the name of the coin was mentioned in the transcript and this is when Ripple started to pump a bit and people jumped into it to try and make a quick buck or so

it was only after 1 hour 7 mins that they got the to part where they mentioned this "Special Coin" so people were expecting it to pump even more..it didn't and fell back down again which begs the question did they really have many people tuning in as they claimed to say?

My Personal thoughts

- The entire webinar was very "Sales oriented" Typical Trying to sell you something - typical video testimonials with some semi retired couple supposedly making a killing in crypto (and looking at the type of people one would wonder whether they would even know what a "Blockchain is" LOL..

- the 1 million BTC giveaway by him was by my course for 2500 bucks and i will give you 200 bucks worth of bitcoin
- There was quite a bit of theory and discussion about crypto which was good and beneficial so learnt quite a bit here

Was it a waste of time? No I dont think so it was for me interesting in seem how they orchestrated this entire thing and of course those that wanted to make a quick buck or two in taking part of pumps probably did benefit it..

Mixed thoughts about this..still i am not convinced!

I don't think it's a scam, coins101 has a very good reputation. But yes, the communication is a disaster. It's only after someone here raises a big stink that we get any progress information. I can't understand what's so hard about writing a bi-weekly update, even if you have a day job. This is especially galling as they claim to do "Agile Development" in the ANN post. Now I work as an agile coder and frequent and timely communication is one of the top obligations of an agile team. Just as a reminder, there's an agile manifesto, and it says (among other things; emphasis mine):

Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer
through early and continuous delivery
of valuable software.

Business people and developers must work 
together daily throughout the project.

Honestly thinking about dumping all HLM once they can be traded and get out of this. Should have bought into Crown - team is also a split-off from SPR and they have a working masternode coin and service nodes and all the nice stuff.

DEVS: Please, you are doing your own project a huge disservice claiming Agile when you rarely communicate, your github is empty and you have no MVP to show. I bought into this not least because of your reputation and the Agile claim (which is rare enough). I confess I am losing hope by what I see instead. At least strike the Agile claim, it rubs it in every time I read it.

Are there any plans for a Mac wallet or Pi
