I hear you guys. There were some missteps in May, no doubt. I'll have more to say later. I'm drinking my Friday night wine now...
Tell the truth, I'm pretty exhausted after an intense April/May. I don't turn my back on the problems, but yet we still haven't taken much time to celebrate a TON of good things that have happened. I really need to celebrate our win in May now... We made a huge move forward, and despite the problems I never doubted we would get through it, not for a second.
I want to make sure you didn't miss this post a few pages back:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=527500.msg11477413#msg11477413 IMZ was right on. Do I wish we had not forked and had wallets on time? Uh, yeah. I wish that really really bad. I'd like to get back that week of sleep that I missed. Could the rollout have happened better? Definitely. Was I deservedly yelled at an humbled? Most certainly.
But we made it. We are here. Very few lives were lost. Uno is better positioned for a secure long term future than ever. What happens to Uno now is up to all of us.
Btw, I just got Bryce's bill for implementing merged mining in Uno. I'm hoping we can collectively raise his "zero" Uno fee.
I'm grateful for what BW was able to do for us single handedly. He would also like to see more more devs come to Uno (welcome again CaptChadd).
Meanwhile, lets just pause a minute to let the adrenaline settle. We can make the wallet pretty again, don't worry. In the mean time, lets appreciate the added blockchain security that has come with the 100x increase in hash Uno is getting, with more on the way.
And lets welcome the new people and pools who are looking at Uno and asking themselves, "why didn't a coin without a premine, which suffered two major exchange thefts, which once had no devs but now has three, why didn't this coin simply die off after Wolong dumped it?" It's a good question; I'll try to answer it later, but right now my wine glass is empty, soo... ttyl
