All.
I wish you all the best for the future, but I'm sad to say I've decided to sell my (small) investment in HIRO. I'm only posting this as advice to other investment holders, as previously I've stated I believed in HIRO but unfortunately that's just no longer the case.
I've seen my investment decline to only 1/3 of it's original value, and I've no reason to believe the decline will stop. It's already in the 600s on Poloneix (668 Polo, 711 MintPal) I stopped mining a long time ago for the same reason. A pity because I LOVE the X11 algo, and it's quiet/cool/lowWatt nature.
I've seen nothing which would prevent a fall to around 200 or 100, or even worse, in the 10's, rendering my investment worthless.
Hopefully the plan succeeds, and Hiro becomes "The GPU Miners Coin", but I'm just not seeing it myself. Others may think otherwise and I respect that, this coin does have a good chance of succeeding, but just not good enough for me.
What could have been done better? While I can see some action from the developers on technical matters, there has been zero action in regards to marketing and other promotion. I see that as the failure of this coin. If I was a cynic I would say that the efforts of HiroS and Joerii have simply kept as many people holding as possible, only delaying the inevitable, perhaps to their advantage. Still, I'm not sure what could realistically be done in the current market anyway.
I can say I have been impressed with HiroS's continued technical development of the coin, and there is fair evidence that he does actually believe in it.
In any case, I wish you all the best, and good luck. I'll be keeping an eye on Hiro over the next few months still - I may even buy back in at some point in the future.
