Dear me, what a sad state of affairs reading this. Am I correct in understanding that ION’s fate currently lies solely in the hands of the Manythings team without them even capable of handing it over? I will not assume any malicious intent by them for now, as they have probably just become too busy with other things and had good intentions setting up the vesting in the way that they did.
The project and its resources should however in all honesty be at this point, with their help, reallocated to others capable of further expanding ION’s future, or at the very least to save it from utter stagnation.
Sunny & Co. gifted ION to the community, and so it should be returned. I really hope someone at Manythings can see this and do the right thing and help in whatever way they can even if it means a financial knock. I hope a small part of Sunny still wishes to see it thrive. There is still a semblance of ION believers who would love to help ION rise from its current ashes.
