Wow, really? Dang man, that was never what happened. They failed but to say I rugged, isn't right. I'm shocked that there is a perception of my character like I would rug anyone.
My business partner fell ill and was in hospital for like a year so I was left with no one to develop it. I tried my best to keep things afloat, but without my tech guy, it lost momentum.
I dont think it's fair to say I rugged it though. There was no 'running away with the money' or leaving the platform. I fought day and night for years to try to keep it going. I never left. I've been here pretty much every day and never shied away from talking about it.
I apologize to anyone that I hurt.
Those projects were my blood , sweat and tears for over a decade on chain and off. They failed because of situations that I tried my best to fix but couldn't. I did find someone that was going to rebuild them, and they took over almost 2 years ago, but they never seemed to get things going either.
So yeah, they failed. But saying I rugged it, like I had some kind of nefarious agenda or something, isn't right. That's not who I am.
That may be true, but like I said the perception is out there. I've talked to a lot of bitter folks over those projects in the past few years. I'm also pretty sure after CTP got abandoned you did say you were leaving. Quitting HIVE to drive a truck and focus on real world stuff. Then if I remember correctly you suddenly popped back up going all in on LEO. I get stuff happens, but I can also see why people feel they were duped.
I get that. I understand the frustration. Believe me, I was super upset with the situation as an entrepreneur. Failing businesses, are never fun.
Yeah I did get a job offline with the truck driving. Was able to provide for my family after years and years of struggling to build back on Hive.
I was tired man. Was doing the entrepreneur thing for decades. Just thought it was time to embrace the 9 to 5 life. But even though I wasn't posting every day, Iw as still here.
And yeah, LEO was an adventure. I thought for sure that was going to make all my bad decisions in crypto right. Welp. That never worked out.
Wish people tagged me or talked to be directly, because I would have shared what happened. This must have been behind the scenes in Discord or something. Because I would have spoken to anyone that tagged me.
Yes, it has mostly been in Discord. Perhaps some of them will see this explanation.
