[ANN] FACTOM - Introducing Honesty to Record-Keeping

[Jjtjjt]

Lotta noobs spreading a lot of FUD ...

Do you listen to newbies spreading fud, because I don't, I listen to higher ranking members

[Yazz]

I certainly agree that the lack of information flowing from the Factom team is a little disappointing, as are the announcements that are promised and then not delivered. It is a great product and great team, no doubt... however, the communications need to be drastically improved.

I certainly hope some substantial progress is being made and we can expect some positive news very soon as 18% wiped off value in one day is partly a result of people losing faith and this can be easily managed with regular and meaningful communication.

My father always told me... under-promise and over-deliver.

See Yaaz gets it.

The latest version of Factom is Version 0.3.8.0, released 28 Oct, 2016

https://github.com/FactomProject/distribution

Wait, is this the testnet release?

No, sorry this is just a bugfix for M1.  This solves some of the memory issues the community has been testing fixes for.  https://github.com/FactomProject/factomd/issues/23


Also, that announcement you picked up on turns out needed to stay secret for a while longer.  You will hear about it when it is much further along in development.


When we release the public testnet, how many people here will actually download and test it?  No one took me up on my offer to run the simulator.

Having just reviewed the open issues on github, it appears that there is only one left. Does this mean that once this final issue is closed we can expect the imminent release of M2?

Hopefully you are right.  It would be a much needed breath of fresh air.

Not to go all tin foil hat on you Yazz but you speak awfully well for someone new here,

I know Yazz from another forum and yes, he does speak well.

Glad I dumped my FCT at 41.

[D-Lux]

Funny how the FUD piles on during dumps.

[GrossBit]

Glad I dumped my FCT at 41.

holy sh*t 27 now... everyone laughed at my prediction at 25 here (when it was 47) but its really close now...

if the weekly divergence (RSI+volume) wholly plays out 15 is still the final destination

its a sea of red in all alts, but today, (so far) Factom is the champion. I just hope we will not hear of some REAL bad news about this company. (like its a really a scam), and thats its just the usual crypto roller coaster.

In the meanwhile, waiting for M2 is a bit like waiting for Godot

TLDR: don't listen to circle jerking, to people accusing others of being trolls. listen to all opinions, and more importantly listen to Mr Market.

Last chance to get FCT under 0.003



Thank you panic noob sellers

Says increasingly nervous holder for the twentieth time

[D-Lux]

Every time the price drops, GrossBit and a bunch of noobs start trolling in earnest. Hmm ...

[daburone]

You can't say that about me. In fact I even offered to buy Grossbits shares at one point (glad he didn't take me up on it).

I think there are now genuine concerns about their ability to deliver. We don't even have  a timeline for the testnet, let alone M2 proper. Of course there's always the hope that they will spring a positive press release with their rabbit in the Hat business strategy...

The market has spoken loud and clear.

not really, every time the price moves significantly up or down / or that i adjust my positions, really. TBH i was long and took my loss on the day @ 0.00337
taking into account BTC rise, its a bit less than 10%. not happy about it, because for days i was hesitating to sell i was still in profit fin fiat terms when it was 0.0037-0.0038 (despite buying at 0.00407) but at least i'm flat and done with it...and as mentioned, my longs were kept small compared to my earlier sizes that i dumped at 0.005. now doesn't look as a bad sale isn't it ?

I'm not touching this stuff before it hits 0.0015. but at 0.0025 it should calm down a bit, thats an important chart point, a bounce maybe up to 0.003 is likely but i'm not in the mood to trade after taking in a loss usually.

as for A-shares selling, its impossible technically to sell them so no regret.

I'm not concerned about their abilities to deliver, but I agree that the way they communicate is disappointing. And while I'm not critical about delays in general, it's impossible to count on anything what is said when there are huge delays without any further communication/updates.

I want to know more about this Yazz user.  WHAT other forums is he on?

[D-Lux]

For the past several hours these trolls have been overtime spreading FUD about FCT, coinciding with the slamming of the FCT price.

Check http://www.polonibox.com/?messageText=fct
for the attacks there.

This is completely ridiculous ...

Do people actually listen to users on there?  I would think everyone on there would have their own agenda. It's easy to fall into a "bitch spiral"

In the absence of regular communication these forums are what form perception, yes. As you well know.

And no, not everyone on here has an "agenda." Believe it or not, some people actually want to discuss the team and technology and future in an open way. And not have to deal with FUD armies scamming people for a living, let's say.

But really, you guys are doing an impressive job. Really coordinated, totally cold and aggressive. Can't imagine how you explain yourself to yourself, though.
