I honestly feel like people are glossing over the stagnation of this coin and chucking it under "long term investment". This is a crypto currency and as such should be rising not boomeranging to its starting point. Hoping for that 1000% increase is simply wishing upon a meteor or a pumping whale in this case.
We are focusing on cuddling Jaguars instead of thinking like business men and MARKETING ourselves as a viable crypto currency alternative. Go back and read the progress report the dev put out. It was all about things that happened LAST MONTH and nothing of recent only the same rhetoric of "secret project in the works" like this is some school yard gossip. No one is going to steal the idea because there is no interest and frankly the whole "long term investment" motto is getting old. Long term investment until we start struggling to compete with 3rd gen crypto currencies?
You can look at the timestamps here:
https://twitter.com/getearthcoinSo new Mac wallet released. Also spending time troubleshooting issues because people who have versions below OSX 10.7 can't launch (dev time spent)

Earthazaar marketplace almost launched. (dev time spent)
Migrating from earthcoin.biz to getearthcoin.com (dev time spent)
And besides updating the old site (that is up currently) I've been simultaneously working on the new site.
Yes, it is possible to post updates every day, but this is what it would look like.
"Set up local development environment. Database Provisioning. Download CMS and choose appropriate modules. Wireframing. Rewrite .htaccess and set up php.ini correctly, Worked on Desktop design. Worked on Mobile Design. Worked on Tablet Design. Populated Content. Information Architecture. Worked on Contact Form. Worked on populating footer content. Worked on CSS. Revised CSS for Internet Explorer. Populate content. Design graphics for Carousel. Design textures for buttons and footer. Retest on multiple platforms again. Fix bugs again. Populate content on the live (current site), Port it back to dev site. Go through more photos and icons. Write new content. Set up contact form. Set up Newsletter form. Implement Jquery animation effects. Revise color scheme for readability, Compress and resize images to balance between high-quality graphics and fast load times., implement caching techniques, implement google translate, implement internationalization/localization architecture even for human-translated content, tweak pixel values again so things move to proper place when browser is resized to different layouts, implement caching techniques, populate pages and pages of content) etc. At my workplace it used to take 3 months to properly design and site. Now we've crunched that time down to a few weeks. These are real-world expectations.
That is just for the website. That's one project. And yes, there are multiple projects happening simultaneously.
I joined the team coming from the community of people who invested in EAC early on and gave my suggestions here and there until I was bountied and am now part of the team. As someone who is just like all the other supporters here, I spent time just watching price and wondering why this or that wasn't happening. And then I realized *I* could make anything happen. Any of us can help EAC. I am working on EAC stuff in between my full time job and of course personal life. It has been a huge amount of work and I am in constant communication with the other people working on other EAC projects. Maybe Xploited can fill you in on what has been going on with the Android wallet. It is a little disheartening to hear that all this work is not appreciated (and I get it because only the final product "matters", but we keep moving forward because we know that once things are released, then that is when it will all be worth it.
And as far as charities go, I've seen a few coins pick up on this angle since Earthcoin has launched so it should be obvious that it has value.
When you have time, watch these amazing talks by Andreas Antonopoulos.

If we build out our core of supporters from people who have a *deep belief* in the transformational power of cryptocurrency, I think that is a stronger core to have. The people who will chase quick profits will jump from coin to coin, but Earthcoin has staying power because it has people that want to do good in the world.
