I agree with you. The current development of Factom somehow remembers me to the development of Counterparty. The devs got stuck at a particular point and then there was no more real progress for a couple of months. I personally think about to decrease my stack, too, but I still gonna wait a couple of days, maybe weeks.

All right. I bought last year factoids at an average price of 11 cents per factoid when many despaired and sold below the price ICO.

happy people, nice

This is all very nice and dandy but there s still only one question on the table. M2?

I think you should just sell your Factom as you obviously no longer believe in the project.

Wow, that are good news! It's presumably just testing at the moment, but definitely promising.


Not sure if it's about those two companies, but if, it would be great:

There is no conflict of interest because between Investors in Factoids and User of Factom. User don't need to care about the price of Factoids. For them it's always about the price of Entry Credits which are fixed: $0.001 They don't even need to know about the existence of Factoids. They can buy EC's with Dollar - Credit-Card etc.

If there is a conflict, than it's about short- and longterm-investors. Short-term-speculation needs news, as much attention as possible, "hype" and "soon". For them it's about the communication of a team. Often enough they buy the announcement of an announcement to sell into the real release (buy the rumor, sell the news). Longterm-Investors want to see the real value increase: The use of the system. So, the system is priority. Second: Business side... partnerships. 

And kind of funny but also kind of weird is how Crypto changed/changes the feeling of time. A month is a year, so there should be something to celebrate at least once a month (exchange-christmas). I know that feeling. But for those who do all the work, a month is still a month.

Good post! I didn't realise entry credits had a fixed price, and I agree that crypto time is accelerated to ridiculous extremes now where days feel like months in other industries. I consider myself a long term speculator, so I'm holding factoids for at least 1-2 years. I suppose anyone who doesn't day trade is thinking something similar now, hold until crypto is mainstream, then sell a % for a life changing return

My strategy is nearly always the same: I buy into a project that I see as promising and then I watch the development over time. And that's never boring, because I highly focus on "context". Every piece of information, even if it doesn't seem to be directly relevant for a specific project, can be helpful to get a bigger picture, which is needed to evaluate correctly what is relevant. And over time it all together becomes clearer. In some projects I believe to see more negative than positive signs and I sell. In some it's the other way around and I buy more.

In Factom I bought nearly to all prices. Most of my FCT's in the first three months after launch, but I also bought in early January and I bought the last weeks after the "pump-n-dump" in march.

I still believe that a lot of ppl come to wrong conclusions about Factom because they try to understand and evaluate it out of a wrong context. But Crypto has already changed and Factom is one of the projects that are different, not just the system but also the team. Exactly that is good and not bad.
