Difficulty up. Someone is farming.

Has anyone got MrSpreads real SPR address?

-snip-

Now, that is strange. An address MrSpread set up him self Sfakp1H9msXAohGmnb2T7NWrtcBdwSxbid has a transaction from that address to a new one SP7jrxYeGdEiTSsSQtnSr9UCXtEpuHYigv (where it still lays).

The transaction of 20,000 SPR was on the 14th of feb 2015.

The interesting thing is a transaction of 10,000 SPR was made from SP7jrxYeGdEiTSsSQtnSr9UCXtEpuHYigv to either SMXteAtnxKNY3m1gsiYoVi5zVARoiqGvnm or SRwtzgrAHCpmdiKtbxQZCKgi7BkCt29h5f... Again, where they still lay.

These transactions happened on the 5th of April (This month(10 days ago)) WTH?

We need a list of completely pointless excuses for MIA that Mr. Spread can use:

* My electricity is on a pre-pay meter and I ran out of coins
* My girlfriend said it was either Spread or no spread   
* It was harvest time on the farm, I had to help out
* Working six months straight on Spread burned me out and I need time to restore my chi
* MyFarm was getting on my tits
* Coins101 was getting on my tits
* I had to code for Google, they were in trouble. All fixed now.

-snip-

It looks like whoever has control over Mr. Spread's wallet has just moved around some SPR within that wallet.
This kind of transactions is what you see when you use the coin control features.

I'm an idiot.

I sent MrSpread a PM on 5 April @ 9.40pm Bitcointalk thread time with a link to the project update

He moved those coins on 5 April @ 22.40

Actually, I expect the price to do that anyway when the dev team release the next phase of the project.

Having Mr. Spread join the dev team would be a great boost to the project and it would speed the spread of Spread.
