So we have made it onto our first "major" exchange at BTER. This is great news, and it looks like there is decent buy support. More importantly it brings volume and market depth for more stable trading.
We are definitely aware of all of the hard work the China promo team has been doing and greatly appreciate it. What other coin has a team voluntarily making t-shirts? That is pretty impressive and I talk about it a lot with people
I understand everybody is anxious for the beta wallet. We were purposely holding off to let the market stabilize, we weren't sure what would happen with the BTC foundation news story that was happening sunday/monday, and I wanted to give enough time for the Particle foundation to come together so that we have a support base behind the release.
I will get it packaged up and the foundation will get a strategy together to roll things out. Before with the alphas I was trying to do more frequent drops, but the feedback and pushback was to wait and have more ducks in a row before doing code drops. And so that's what I've been doing.
One thing to note, is that although it is an important release, I am not expecting it to be a "magic unicorn" that is going to lead to instant 10x increase in market price of PRT. Just want to have realistic expectations. And it is of course a Beta, which means there is still polishing and finishing work to do, and there will I'm sure be bugs and issues to resolve. Growth in price is dependent on the growth and support of the community and a steady hand pushing growth behind the scenes. It is better to have long term stable price growth than a few "pumps" based on news that might elicit selling pressure and long term have the opposite of the intended effect.
Slow, steady, strong... Particle will stand apart from the endless stream of P&D coins that we have seen this quarter.
