I like SIA, I love the technology and possible applications to enterprise.
I think that in the next few years there's going to be amazing growth in this sector and that it is *smart* to be there, here and now, to carve your market.
However
I've been reading the past few pages of this discussion and something was made very apparent, at least, to me...
I'm talking as a business owner (20+ years) and not as an investor (own exactly 0 SiaCoins).
I think that, at this point in time, unmitigated "investor angst" is very quickly turning into reputational damage.
Reputational damage, damage to your Brand, is extremely hard to recover from, even harder that early in the game. There are disappointed investors out there attacking the brand because they lost money... damage to your Brand is what you should be worried about because this will absolutely jeopardize Client Adoption and Retention down the line, which is exactly what you need.
I understand that the team doesn't see SiaCoin as a speculative vehicle and are beyond tired of hearing calls for news or updates just to pump the price (I would be sick and tired of hearing that too), but the hard fact is that for a lot of people out there, SiaCoin is merely an investment, and I think a holistic/global approach that combines the view that SiaCoin is an investment + meant to be used on the network, not just one or the other, but both, would be beneficial and create VALUE for everyone involved.
That's where a dedicated Investor relations or PR person would come in...
Just sharing some thoughts with you all
