The ends do not justify the million dollar means though.
And often once the "FUD" is applied it's only THEN do they feel pressure to get anything done.
You guys forget if you don't hold their feet to the fire then usually there is no real effort.
If you let them take a pay check and walk with it they will.
Further more..
It's been said that the dev simply used the money for Blocknet on another project.
It's also an "ICO" which is in itself scammy ..by design.
Don't leap frog over the fact that it was an ICO guys.
ICO's are *NOT* legit by any stretch of the means.
Neither is asking for 1 fucking million god damn dollars for some crypto bullshit.
Did buddy ask for a grand or 2 a month to cover his expenses while coding ?
Did he demand all the money for the entire year up front and in cash ?
You REALLY want to get into this ?
The dev said he had 75% of the code finished before he posted his ANN topic.
Which consisted of a small jpeg image with some bullet points. (no text at all)
Yeah.. a million dollar jpeg is what dumb fucks bought with their BTC

Do you get it ?
Clearly if he had 75% of the code done he didn't need 1 million to do the other 25%.
And i just told you all for the 1,000000000th time he said he needed that "to ensure it's a success".
Which by his own standards he failed at.. because it was never a success and it was spent on another coin project.
But hey, by all means try and loiter around pretending ICO's are legit.
..i won't.
