I first posted about why we keep pushing back our token sale over in our Telegram community. Join us there for the most current updates and status to the project. https://t.me/joinchat/C8JtFgzGzcsN_tjxoYBH1A (or click the photo below)

As Wil and I have witnessed the current chaos in the crypto space, it's troubled us.





First, with Brave and Decentralland being scooped up in less than a minute, leaving out the majority of the community with unfilled orders, then with Tezos and their messy struggles...on and on, story after story of what--to me, to us--has had far-reaching impacts on the community, both within those organizations and the crypto space as a whole. (To say the current chaos and frenzy happening in the crypto space is alarming is a vast understatement and we've worked hard to stay on the fringe and out of the fray.)





To us, community is everything. I've done my best to convey that, and clearly, with the level of work Wil has put into gathering such a tremendous community, both here and in the physical world, it matters to him a great deal. Truly, the success of Neureal is DEPENDENT on community. Without it, Neureal will be but a fraction of what he's envisioned, what I signed on for, what all of you believe it will be and the impacts we all see on the future with Neureal in it.





So as we've watched each meteorite of an unsuccessful ICO/token sale/community mismanagement happen, it's sent us back to the drawing board, to weigh, measure, and solve those impacts on our community, on this community.





And we've come up with the best solutions we can think of. We've changed the cap on the token sale, leaving plenty of room for EVERYONE to get involved, we've changed the length of the token sale, forcing it to take a month so that we can allow plenty of time for EVERYONE to get involved, we've restructured the way tokens are sold during the token sale, ensuring EVERYONE gets their orders filled, we've chosen not to simplify the whitepaper, leaving the technical details because we believe in the intelligence and commitment of our community, both past and future. Same, our lack of a flashy website, putting money into better people, more advisors, spaces that serve the community best.





That's taken time. A lot of time because we wanted--needed--to get it right.





Now that we have those pieces figured out, we're moving forward again, still slowly so we can stay aware of any new perceived vulnerabilites, dangers, and impacts to our community, so we can adjust as needed. And we also feel very comfortable and confident (finally) where we are, which is why Wil opened the pre-pre sale, why we're adding marketing now, why you're hearing from us more (thank you for your patience with the lack over the last few months as we've pondered and solved and listened and consulted with experts and attorneys and advisors and our selves).





The success of Neureal matters to us, has always mattered, will always matter.





As will community.





Neureal IS community.





The work we've done is only part of any solution. We need your input on what we've come up with. Wil and James have begun putting together the token sale code--it needs more development and more input from you, who will all be impacted by it. Test it, study it, give us feedback, help us come up with new ideas, better ways of being, industry standards that we can share so that the rest of the crypto community learns from what we're doing so everyone benefits. Same, the alphasale documents--what's there, what's missing, what else would you like to see/know/participate in?





Thank you in advance.





Truly.





Wil and I and the internal team cannot do this on our own. It will take all of us (plus plus plus), moving this vision forward to get us to a future that will likely be far grander than anything we've envisioned to date.





EVERYONE will know the future.
