I hate to be this negative and it will probably be deleted even though it is total truth. First of all you peaked some interest yes. Asked us to get the word out and some did including me. Those people have long lost interest and moved on. All that has been done here is over hype with empty words. You better be rolling pure gold balls out to us in order to live up to the OVER hype otherwise everyone will move on and your Halo "Team" will have way overthought this project and peoples reaction to it. ALL of your words are EMPTY. You are not saying anything at all!!!!
I have been at least interested to see what you are trying to pull off. I hope it is good. What it really looks like is the start of a major pump for the dev to sell out. Man I hope I am wrong but it is not been good so far. Artwork is cool but the thing in the middle kinda looks like a fairy......I don't know. You need to at least say what the algo is so we will know if we even want to mine it. I will be looking in a couple of days to see how you manage to create something that everyone is going to WOW over. I hope you do!!! I will mine it if you do but over hype normally means bend over to miners and watch the dev hit it big while they run away with btc. Ok, I am going to wait also and hope for something HUGE. Also going to keep my eye on whatever exchange you are planning on using to see if the big selloff happens. I hope not.
Good luck everybody including me depending on the algo. Hope I didn't rub anyone the wrong way but I just see it as truth!! This needs to launch soon and needs an algo to have a smooth launch...and no wallets right at launch. Ok ok!! Let's go to the races!!!!
In regards to deleting your post. We've only deleted posts which were, in our opinion; offensive/used abusive language/etc. You post has now been committed to this thread; as you bring up valid concerns which I'll address. (This response may be edited if any of our team wishes to add to the response - edits will be noted).
1.) We certainly appreciate your initial interest; and of course anything you did to help spread the word.
2.) I know you've said you've lost interest, my only response would be I hope you consider taking a close look on Sunday; and simply seeing what HALO will offer.
3.) In terms of what we are rolling out; wouldn't it be fair to say that most digital currency releases are severely "under-thought". We have; yes; put a lot of thought into this project.
4.) Everyone will be fine with the algo; and to be frank; there has been to much focus on that. It's nothing scarce. It's highly available. You will all be pleased.
5.) There will be no major sell off. We have a 1 Year and 3 Year Cash-Flow Forecast in place which we will be publishing pre-launch which clearly outlines all anticipated expenses to: Secure Primary Nodes for 3 Year; Secure Secondary Nodes for 1 Year; Marketing/Advertising Expenditures for Social Ads; Forum Ads; and Misc; as well as a line by line itemization of all other expenses which will be required to position HALO as a leading digital currency for our future.
6.) One aspect we considered paramount to the success of HALO was that while the currency is decentralized; there must be a business aspect that makes financial sense. To investors; to those who mine; to those who adopt; there must be control within the chaos.
Our team is comprised of nearly all digital currency veterans. We've looked at what other coins did, why the ones which succeeded did so, and why so many fail. Running HALO from a Foundation point of view; where there is not a road map; but rather the means; the ability; to realize our plans and deliver on our promise.
We believe HALO can be everything in which Bitcoin aimed to do; but simply was never designed or capable of.
In closing; our only failed "milestone" was the "milestone". As noted earlier in the forum; our Senior Developer had personal matters which he had to focus on. It's as simple as that. We hadn't launched anything; there was never an ANN thread created.
We hope you'll consider seeing what HALO is, and will be, this Sunday at 18:00 GMT.
The HALO Team
