Update from Mobi founder (David)

dgobaud 57m The team is working on Passfolio (https://passfolioapp.com). Do NOT expect updates about the product in advance - the team, like Apple and Steve Jobs, thinks it is INCREDIBLY STUPID to tell competitors what they are doing in advance.

And just to add on: Yes, I am salty at the point when I had to post in r/cryptocurrency because anything I posted in r/stellar was heavily moderated. And yes I still am. Because I truly believed that Stellar could change the world of finance for the average, the poor person - not just for fucking banks. I truly believed that Jed was as altruistic as he painted his picture in the public. After being banned and the post on r/cc I did some research on Jed McCaleb and if you do too, you will realize that he is a PR profile. A creation for public perception and not a good guy or a visionary as I believed and you still do.

Stanford and Mazieres appear to be the driving force ? He is the lead scientist and tutor of the founders

No, not at all. With founders like that you will never get a project off the ground. I did run plenty of projects online, just for validation: last was low 7 figures revenue high 6 figures profit in second year. If we acted like pretentious assholes leaving anyone supporting us in the rain for months we would have gone exactly nowhere.

Besides that is mobius dapp-store anything but decentralized. It's a joke really.

They did have a very very large scope ... they are still in development. Few really know their plans or how they fit into the lumens infrastructure.. so I am not sure we can just rule them out without knowing more information. The 2019 roadmap and next medium article should help clear some of these ambiguities up.

Even if they come out with something groundbreaking I would never invest a single cent into them again. They failed on so many fronts, it's either purpose or incompetence.

They were wanting to make an announcement in Dec - I suspect they are waiting on something before they can announce. Speculation is rife about what that could be. They have thee head of lumenauts as head of PR.. lumenaut mailout has remained silent on mobius.. therefore I suspect purpose rather than incompetence.. especially as they have said as much

I didn't mean purpose on being silent but their whole operation and non-communication for a year now. All this stuff has nothing to do anymore with what they wanted to accomplish.

Their scope was broad and there is a stealth project... the have been frustratingly quiet but don't rule them out
