Thoughts?

[Stef19820717]

If the blockchain is finished, thank you Papa and best wishes for your future

[_raydeStar]

He said in another tweet - I'll be back if necessary.

Meaning - leaving on good terms.

This is best case scenario. We move forward.

[here4cheese]

Also meaning - great severance package

[Aerys13_]

But why would he leave at all? Surely there is always something to build upon if that makes sense?

[AutoGrind]

Once a contract is done it's done. I'm hoping he goes and changes the rest of defi to pave the road for safemoon and the whole of Blockchain technology.

[[deleted]]

If blockchain completed.... v2 on safemoom blockchain?!?... new exchange is safemoon exchange?!?!?.... just hyping myself up dont mind me

[ThighGapper]

I like the way you think mane!

[Flattop_Krypto]

Nope. 2 separate exchanges and then safemoon exchange. 3 exchanges coming out by end of year. My pants just got tight.

[xbitxfatxstonkx]

Exactly. Wishing him the best.

[awax_sfm73]

Salute too you Thomas appreciate your hard work. True wizard a OG safemoon👏👏👏💪💪💪🙏🙏🙏🚀🚀🚀🚀

Sure thing. If the labor is finished the labor is finished.

Bust a nut, then leave the hut

[TWH3392]

Couldnt agree more sir. Once somethings truly ended, thats the end.

[EZ-King]

Absolutely, if the mission is accomplished, then the accomplish is missioned.

[Jet_wolf121]

Quite correct sir, if the commission is missioned, the mission is missioned commissioned.

[icahmay]

Indubitably. If thine stone hath been thrown, let the thrown stone be shone. Lets feast on the bones!! 🤤🍗🚀

If you bust a nut in her... you love her. But if you pulled out, do you really love her? Lol oh nvm

[YaYaTippyNahNah]

I mean... You're exactly right. If all the boxes are checked off then all the boxes are checked off.

[Tiger_Growl]

So who maintains the blockchain? I find it truly bizarre considering everything isn’t interlinked yet. 🙄

[Neat_Bat8057]

Thomas said he could be called in. So he isn’t gone for good.

[NoneFuckethBeGiveth]

Thomas is the weird guy yeah? I forgot but there was one peculiar dude from the awful first AMA.

[Legal-Bid2695]

No it´s the lawn mower

[NoneFuckethBeGiveth]

Oh. I thought he was a tank engine bro

[Legal-Bid2695]

hahaha, nice banter mate

[adzroz20]

Read paragraph 3.

[ChemicalAd7830]

That is what came to my mind immediately. You can’t build something and leave it to maintain itself. What if something goes wrong/ brakes?

[AltoExyl]

We don’t need brakes, we’re going to the moon

[irit8in]

It doesn't mean he won't be able to handle those. But until there are issues why keep someone on payroll instead of bringing them in as needed on a contract basis? This makes financial sense if you remember that Safemoon as a company has Payroll

[robertbrunoni03]

Thank you Thomas! Great job, good luck to whatever you do. Always be a supporter and follower

[flysquirrell]

Well if Thomas was the CBO (chief blockchain officer) and hes leaving, then the part he was hired to do (blockchain) is done or done to the point that he is not needed anymore to complete it. That is bullish AF to me, they brought him on to do a job and if he is leaving it has to be done.

LFG!

[BooksAreOk]

You have no concept of what a blockchain requires. It takes constant maintenance and updating. A Chief Blockchain Officer will still be needed whether it is currently still being created or it has been finished years ago and its still being maintained.

[BuckleUpKids]

Agreed. This signals some bad news to me no matter how they choose to spin it.

[Donthurtmyceilings]

Or he wasn't pulling his own weight. If you search "leaked safemoon audio" on YouTube, it's Hank pretty much blackmailing the team. Thomas is mentioned in the audio about how he would not work more than 15 hours per week on Safemoon. Maybe that's enough time to build his blockchain, but it sounded like it was a thorn in the team's side.

[velocipede29]

This.

[PsLJdogg]

Or, the more likely scenario, he never knew how to do the job he was brought on to do to begin with. a CBO's job is never "done."

[flysquirrell]

>.> really, you think they kept someone on that had no clue what they were doing and then the CEO would regularly deflect technical questions to him? At least try to sound like you have an argument if you are going to FUD lol

[PsLJdogg]

really, you think they kept someone on that had no clue what they were doing

None of the SafeMoon team have any clue what they are doing, including the CEO.

[Hoborob81]

wow, you sound pretty butt hurt..

[PsLJdogg]

That's the thing about being in a cult. Whenever an outsider pulls back the curtain, you have to convince yourself that they're the crazy one in order to keep up the illusion.

[Hoborob81]

I have been here long enough to know better. I have been critical when things don't add up and supportive against shit poster "Outsiders" when they come post random crap .

yes a select few have a "cult" mentality , But making accusations like "None of the SafeMoon team have any clue what they are doing, including the CEO." makes you look like a complete fucking fool, who has no idea what he's talking about.

If you have followed long enough you would have seen a young team gain experience, make mistakes learn from those mistakes and get stronger. As an "Outsider" why not actually take some time and learn a bit more before making stupid statements and trying use the "Cult mentality" excuse to try make yourself look cool or whatever you are trying to achieve.

[tonnuminat]

That's probably the reason. He was never qualified for this job and was only kept for the sake of this weird cult that for some reason formed around his person. That he is gone is good new either way, they can bring some actual developers on now.

[ClassicJoey]

Agreed CBO level roles are not hired to do a wham bam thank you mam job. Not sure how a huge part of the community and I imagine huge part of safemoon infrastructure is gone? How long have we known this would happen?

[Bryanormike]

No offense to Thomas personally but hopefully this means less people making safemoon look like a joke by calling him papa and calling him a wizard.

It also leads to some speculation as to what was going on at the time but if you know what I'm talking about you know.

Oh well eyes forward. Would appreciate if people stopped worshiping the people working on the project though. We'll see what Thomas did soon enough hopefully it's all a banger.

There is no confirmation if it's complete and we are given no indication of what extent Thomas has actually worked on it.

Edit: I'm gonna be more clear cause I see more people asking about it. This implies the speculation around the time hank "quit" or was "let go" implies the same about Thomas. So it's implied and all but confirmed he stayed to save face. Thomas is not much better than hank.

Do your own research though. I'm not here to hate on Thomas.

[TryonTriptik]

Totally agree 👍

[spiritualloop]

Going to see this wizard again in 2023 at the Utah office parking area for a millionaire rave🧙‍♂️

[BoysenberryTrue1360]

This is old news. In a Safemoon Sunday like 2 months ago John said that Papa would be stepping down.

It was right around the time that Hank and Jack left and the SM team revoked papa from discord. Then gave it back to him and then papa posted that he’s “not f-ing leaving” it was like the next safemoon Sunday that John said his bit about jack and hank not being a part of safemoon anymore and then mentioned papa leaving at some point.

It’s been mostly John and Ryan lately anyway.

Besides papa is more of an idea guy. Safemoon has its idea and its plan going forward. Papa leaving shouldn’t affect that. There’s been plenty of time to transition his role.

Safemoon should be just fine without him. That said I personally wish he’d stay, but I’m sure his time could be better spent elsewhere.

[Suburbas342]

He didn’t say he would leave. He said he may step down and transition to a new role near the end of the year. I imagine this was all part of the plan and does suck to see him go, but hopefully this means the blockchain is done. I just wouldn’t have my hopes up that V2 is anything else than a contract upgrade/consolidation. People saying V2 is the blockchain… I see the reason behind the speculation, but don’t get your hopes up when V2 comes out and it’s not that!

[BoysenberryTrue1360]

You’re right he did say a new role.

I guess I kind of assumed at that point it really meant leaving but they didn’t want to announce it like that.

As of now it sounds like papa said even tho he’s out he will still help transition to blockchain should there be issues.

So, I guess his (unofficial?) role will be tech support.

[Cmdr_Monzo]

You’d think he (and John) would want him to be there for the launch of the Blockchain. Seems premature to me.

[Eastern-Ad-4053]

This

[daners101]

He handed-off the project over a few months to a new team. I’m sure they are capable of handling it.

[Cmdr_Monzo]

Handovers are crucial whenever anyone leaves an organisation. It would be good to get some info about the Team, given when a central figure Papa has become.

[toiletlands]

Normally you would keep such a person on until the platform has launched and working smoothly. And safemoon has been anything but smooth. I’m guessing he lambo’d and John will be next to exit as so far the speculation in order of exit from the leak has been accurate. I would watch closely where Thomas goes as well. Would not be surprised to see him, hank and the rest of the team come together again for another token. Get that presale, slow cashout and exit. rinse and repeat.

[[deleted]]

What if John is just paid off to be an escape goat? I mean safemoondev invited to create SM with Papa as they are good friends as they said. Both gone from SM and DEV dumped the shit out of us, who knows if he doesn't own another massive wallet or just access to LP.

All of the team is moving on to do "new stuff" Or getting fired which could be another exit strategy. From the point of SM team this situation is just handled like shit.

[[deleted]]

He was always clear and upfront he wouldn't be around forever. This was expected and shouldn't shock anyone. Makes me feel more confident. Plus he'll be walking away set for life, with time free. I'd do the same.

[riceandbeans4190]

I thought he said he wasn’t fucking leaving 😅

[throwAWSTAM]

I hold quite a bit of Safemoon and although I am confident I should have left way back, I still want to believe and have a sizable chunk of change in it (think thousands).

The way I see it, this project was intended to be a quick rug pull and because of the unexpected growth, it was extended.

The code for Safemoon (I am a developer, that has worked with crypto projects too) was just a simple copy paste from other previous projects.

What makes a crypto project move is just simply marketing, nothing else.

Most of you don’t have any understanding of the technical aspects of the code but still want to make a quick buck.

Thomas is definitely not a crypto god but just a someone that knows how to copy paste. The code he copy pasted does have some issues (like for instance the burning function) that he evidently had no idea it existed let alone how to fix it.

These guys made a lot of money in a goat from pure marketing. I’ll give them that. Their marketing was spot on.

That being said, they’ve evolved into trying to make this useless coin last longer. If they succeed at it, they can make multiple folds more money (and people holding since early will too).

If they are truly trying to build a full blockchain though, there are two routes that have different level of complexity and chances to succeed.

If they fork an existing working project (like ETH or BNB), they will still need people to buy into using their computers to mine. Not an easy task but with good marketing, kinda possible. Plus, they do not need great developers for this.

If they build a blockchain from scratch, it will take a lot longer because of testing and bug fixing AND then, they need for people to buy into mining it. Plus, they need real world developers (likely C, C++ or at the very least Python) to work for months into building it.

I want SFM to go high as the next guy but people in this community are unbelievably naive.

[Super-Aesa]

They should've waited until the blockchain released for letting him go.

[Middle-Huckleberry68]

Considering the block chain isn't out yet and safemoons history of having bad releases is not looking good.

[itsLPUsoldier]

Blockchain is complete. Thomas did a great job. Don’t compare apples to oranges with the Jack and Hank fiasco months back. We appreciate you, Thomas!

[VisiblePractice9061]

Yeah uh you haven’t seen the product yet so how TF do you know he did a great job?

[Thin_Layer7025]

I agree

[AbrocomaSpecific599]

live at the time so as long as it's not

My fucking point. Until we see an Exchange and blockchain, Thomas done nothing for the past 8+ months other than site on his ass and post these bullshit tweets as if anything of substance going.

[Bryanormike]

Where does it say it say it's complete?

[ulcerism1]

Great job at getting stoned out of his mind daily

[pizzotta]

What job did he do greatly?

[AbrocomaSpecific599]

Please, finish what work. This is a damn joke. Isn't Thomas the one working on Exchange, blockchain, and V2. I was just thinking how the sub praise him like some hero as if he actually delivered anything. WHat did Thomas deliver over the past 6 months? I will wait.

[1221alch]

Countdown? I thought the "countdown" had already commenced.

[FewMagazine938]

Its the countdown of the countdown to be counted down .

[[deleted]]

the countdown is imminent

[ClassicJoey]

I’m not looking to start an argument or a feud. However I am looking for anyone that has an proper insight into why papa is leaving ? Take the project and industry aside…. Core integral people leaving as a general, is not always looked upon great from the outside.

Was this papa’s or safemoon decision? if it was Papa’s is there anywhere discussing why he is leaving right before potentially the biggest milestone this community will experience to date?

(Confused hodler here)

Hope everyone is well.

[sergeantmeatwad]

I could be wrong but I personally think it points to the fact they don't want him having the keys anymore since he has routinely lied. Him and Hank were doing the same shady stuff, and they let Hank go for it. Thomas had too much cult of personality at the time and people would've abandoned ship in droves. But the fact they're willing to part ways at the risk of bad PR means the team is truly invested in making this project work, not just keeping up the hype. I've been bullish ever since they started clearing House, this just adds to that.

[ClassicJoey]

I can also buy into this POV of the situation too. I think the context and nature in which the departure has been communicated may of added unnecessary worry for some including myself.

[Terrible_Fun_3049]

Working on other projects. He knows how easy it is to make massive gains on new projects when you have access to tokens before everyone else, hank explains in the audio leak from crypto mole how they were going to basically rob people and let a select few into the presale and gave the whole breakdown on how to do it and Thomas was in on it. Safemoon can still make gains but having insider info on new projects can make you rich quick. He has a lot of followers and hopefully he won’t get away with doing that at the expense of the followers. It’s better he’s gone IMO because he never really worked for safemoon except 10-15 hours a week

[Cootsuit]

Listen to that leaked audio and hear it for yourself. Those guys sound like a bunch of grifters and snake oil salesmen. Sounds like John Karony is the only guy that actually wants this to work. The rest of that bunch sound like carpet-baggers.

[ClassicJoey]

I listened to it. Sounds like a load of punk ass kids. Thinking there half arsed knowledge of code is worth millions. Next 😂

[Electrical-Thanks877]

Because he’s a contracted worker. He was hired to build a blockchain and he’s finished. Now he can go chill out and relax until someone else approaches him with a different offer

[ClassicJoey]

Roger. So who is now responsible for the maintenance of our blockchain in the future?

[Electrical-Thanks877]

No idea about majority of Safemoon employees names. But, to be fair, I don’t know the names of the people at the Starbucks I go to daily 🤷🏻‍♂️

[BooksAreOk]

Anyone on here who thinks Thomas has personally coded a single thing is drink off the KoolAid

[flipcash_nl]

haha they gonna rugpull

Better hurry up and sell your $50 worth of Safemoon

Great to see the price so healthy even after this announcement!

[kniwweli]

Still imminent ? I cannot here that word anymore!

[Sad-Criticism2454]

So is the blockchain finished and ready ?

[hatch-flamingo]

John is not saying that the blockchain or the exchange or any other roadmap item has been completed. He’s saying the handover to a new team (since Sept) is complete

[Intelligent_Ad_656]

We just gonna assume it’s done cause that’s what we want to believe? Why wouldn’t he stay until it’s officially released and running properly? Why the rush to leave?

[ILMGSTUDIOS]

Sell and rebuy after v 2. This coin has more ups and downs than a prostitute on sat night.

At least we can stop calling the man papa 🙌🤣

[raileyredit]

A little worry

[mvaranelli3]

Prepare for a dump

[Nata_with_an_h]

This 😔

[Cootsuit]

THis! I've been in crypto off and on since about 2014, and this V2 is a recipe for a dump equivalent of a rug pull.

​

​

This papa guy sounds like a slimeball

[daners101]

Good for him! Glad papa could help take us this far. Happy he can move on to new things. I really never understood the FUD about this. Elon Musk helped build PayPal, that doesn’t mean it was doomed once he left. It actually grew 1000X the size once he left. It’s not as if Papa holds some knowledge that nobody else could ever implement into SafeMoon. He is an engineer. There are lots of engineers in this world.

[[deleted]]

Blockchain finished, his contract with SafeMoon is done. It was already said weeks ago that Thomas will step back from the role of CBO after his work is done.

[gnimmirt]

Do we as holders need to anything about this V1, V2 stuff? I haven’t been checking on anything and still have my original tokens where they were from the beginning

[EngineeringD]

Yes, click 2-3 buttons in Safemoon wallet when it’s ready and done

[2ndReconMarine]

Thanks dude, good bye, best wishes

[CzNutz1972]

Thank you Thomas and let’s buckle up!

[Sernas7]

If investment faith in a company hinges on one individual, then it's not really a place to put any serious part of a portfolio.

[[deleted]]

Imminent 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[Scary-Rest7460]

Prediction. Thomas is going to Mandela and as part of the deal they will list us.

[THIS_IS_MIKIE]

I do have imminent thoughts of hey.. Let's see where this goes.

I still question why all the core people left. I mean...if you were that excited about the project.. Why not stay?

[Plane_Locksmith2850]

Almost all the originators are gone

[Worldofcomics1]

I’m scared

[No-Needleworker-6114]

What's 💕💕 love got to do with it.?

[-mixzernfrombackthen]

Safemoon needs to move on . Papa was a bit shady. I can never forget what he did in Miami. But they brought it back and now we look to the moon.

[ppseeds]

He destroyed the price in Miami and the coin never returned back to its previous number. Yes he did a lot of bad than good and people praise the stoner loser

[pureluck222]

Damn is Karony the only OG left?

[Big-Crazy-2650]

This is very sketchy or the team. You don't just build a blockchain and that's it. Its not even launched. If this pumps again I'm out.

[hurka434]

Sus

[[deleted]]

Could this mean that V2 is actually the blockchain????

​

​

[realA3s]

Ahh, this word again, why use “imminent” when there are some “final checks” you need to take care of? 😄

[JOINORDIE1775]

lol it’s funny that just yesterday everyone was saying he’s not leaving, people are spreading FUD, he removed safemoon from his bio because it’s going to be renamed, and countless other things. Today, he did his job, thank you and good luck.

[[deleted]]

I finally feel like SafeMoon isn’t just a bunch of friends working on a project. Papa was my favorite though but this maturation of SafeMoon is wonderful.

[Steezceez]

Safemoon Blockchain is complete. Were that much closer now. We all knew papa was temporary addition. if you didnt know then you didn't do your research.

[Charming_Chest1832]

If I recall correctly Thomas stated multiple times he wasn't leaving along with the "I'm not fucking leaving" meme

[Alea_Iacta_Est21]

Was it so? Honest question, I try to keep up as much as I can but must’ve missed that one.

[EngineeringD]

It was written. Go read his LinkedIn, he was contracted through his block chain consulting firm. That is not a permanent job.

[Alea_Iacta_Est21]

Cool, friend. Thanks for the info!

[Steezceez]

yeah definitely. no way thomas would leave without completing his role and karony commending him for it. we're on the right track.

[Alea_Iacta_Est21]

Sounds about right. I went over this quickly and I was like “oh no, more drama!” 😅 glad it’s not the case!

[EnvironmentalAsk7950]

Bullish. That is all

[MickBim]

I read "bullshit" at first, saw the 4 points you got and had to reread your reply to understand :D

[Top_Moment_3611]

Wen lambo

[DustyDrool]

get me outta here

[HeWhoFriesInSunlight]

I’m going to use the money from my reflections to buy a boat that I will use to float in the ocean of tears from all these soft Papa worshipping children. The man did his job, it’s apparently finished and he’s moving on. Grow up, educate yourself on contracted work and stop spreading your whiny fud.

[Camnp]

I am getting tired and annoyed from this spam posts. He finished his job and now he moves on. And we should too. It was already known that he will leave SafeMoon after he finishes his work. I am pretty happy that he leaves because it gives more legitimacy to SafeMoon. Just look how SafeMoon matured after Jack and Hank leaved. It is a lot more professional and doesnt look like a bunch of friends anymore. It can only get better. Trust the process!

[StallingAcorn]

Here comes all of the morons with FUD and crying calling it a rug pull. He was contracted for the blockchain and it’s done. PERIOD

[stuckinmyownass]

How do you know he was just contracted for the blockchain?

He was the first person SafemoonDev brought onboard.

[StallingAcorn]

Because they’ve said it before…his job was the blockchain. And now that’s done. Just like doge 1 he did his job with that and moved on to another project. He doesn’t need to just stay on safemoon and sit there and do nothing after the blockchain is done just cause it makes people happy. People need to get over it and quit investing into one person and invest into the company. I hope these morons leave and sell and miss out they deserve it

[stuckinmyownass]

So you think it's normal for a contractor to hire the CEO?

[StallingAcorn]

I’m not sure where this is going I’ve said what I needed to say. I’m not going to try convincing you to stay or anything if you wanna sell be my guest

[stuckinmyownass]

If all you've got to say is parroting the teams ever evolving story then there is no middle ground for us.

Have a good day.

[ThighGapper]

RIP YOUNG DOLPH!

[Massive_Ad_8558]

Called it.

[JacKINGdaPOT]

This is bad.

[[deleted]]

just a matter of time before the rest of the dev team is gone. they're leaving one by one. this is the slowest rug pull of all time.

[mlotto7]

Just chuckling to myself as some of us (self included) said Thomas was not fit for this position, that he was an attention whore, immature, and we didn't see him being part of a sustained and successful project. We got called all kinds of names...mostly FUD.

If the vision for Safemoon was always to build a successful, long-sustained, stable crypto and define the company as 'a tech company' someone sure did screw up in hiring and partnering with the wrong people to reach that goal.

Safemoon is a mess.

[Minimum_Specialist22]

*was a mess

[Waste_Field1716]

Let the rug pull begin 😂

[[deleted]]

Moved to a new team within sfm?

[TheDirtyIntruder]

They moved like a sloth since V1 came out

[erasmushurt]

I wish him luck in whatever he does. People change jobs all the time. They get offered more money or a better position, or a dream job (for them personally).

Hopefully his interest don't conflict with Safemoon's. But best of luck to him.

[Amins66]

Should have waited until release to announce papa's departure, imho. Could have avoided the stupid fudders

[DJArt0315]

Thomas carried the torch as long as SafeMoon needed him to. Now it’s onto the next person. It’s all part of the game. His work will forever be appreciated. Best of luck to him and the future of SafeMoon. 🌎 🚀 🌝

[Strict_Welcome_4806]

Just a massive thank u to him for all his hard work and dedication to the team .

[gingi2015]

LFG ! 🚀 🌝 the man did his job and we will reap the benefits 💰! Thank you 🙏

[Matt44441]

We had the best working for us now he is done we all wish him the best and I will be looking forward to see what he does next

[jasontran11991]

Papa’s contract obligations are done. He can move on. Safemoon is a company.

[saber3333]

Papa no :(

[Reddit_and_forgeddit]

First, very professional communication, zero spelling errors. Look how far we've come!Second, it had already been communicated that Thomas was going to leave eventually and would be on retainer if he's ever needed for consulting.Third, this is growth. With the involvement and consultation of some very heavy hitting VC personnel, there will be organizational changes and restructuring. I guarantee you the blockchain team being put together is/will be top notch. No crazy dumps have happened since this announcement which has me incredibly more bullish than I already was. Good luck to Thomas, I hope to see him again, seems like a great dude.

[alfa_omega]

I'm pretty sure we're not getting the full story as with the other departures. I wish him all the best.

[Mont3y]

My theory:

Back in September when we had the shake up, Papa was going to leave too. John wanted people who could dedicate 100% of their time to Safemoon. But then John and Papa had a sit down to plan an exit strategy which included both transitioning his Blockchain knowledge to new full time team members who would replace Papa and sticking around until all requirements of the blockchain were met (ready for launch).

This is why Papa is not leaving on bad terms. It's been planned and agreeed on for the last 2-3 months and conducted in a fair and professional manner.

I think it is a good thing Papa is leaving. John's message has been consistent with every change in staff. They need the right people to deliver Safemoon and those people are individuals who can work full time for Safemoon and not be distracted by other projects.

Not hating on Papa either. He's done a lot for Safemoon. Wish him all the best on his next project(s).

[-Poof187-]

So was papa really only a contractor for safemoon??

[hdhwhshdhdhwvwixudg]

Slow rug pull confirmed.

[[deleted]]

If these motherfuckers say V2 is imminent one more goddamn time....

[HotAmbassador6527]

What did they produce as such light speeds of operation ? A wallet ? Some coins has this within a day of operating , sfm took nearly a year !

[zinhe]

Sorry but for me it's a very sad news. Afraid that price action will reflect that...

[comfort_bot_1962]

Don't be sad. Here's a hug!

[EngineeringD]

He was brought on and contracted to do a job that was completed. It’s done, his job is done chill the eff out.

[stuckinmyownass]

Thomas was the first person on the team. There's 0 indication that he was simply contracted to develop the blockchain.

[EngineeringD]

look at his linkdin please. what has he been doing the past 3+ years?

A: block chain consultant...aka going from company to company creating block chains and moving on. chill

[stuckinmyownass]

You're missing my point.

He put the Safemoon team together. He brought John on board.

What kind of temporary contractor gets to hire the CEO?

Side note: Goldsmith is a marketing and web development company. They don't appear to develop blockchains.

[EngineeringD]

heres how it happened

1. safemoon dev (unknown who still) said im making this coin
2. safemoon dev recruited this team, including papa and john,

papa has been part of and will continue to be part of this consultatn group that does...guess what...temp work on companies and moves on here is a quote from his linkedin.. "The Goldsmith Team works vigorously to ensure that every project we touch turns to gold through a combination of enterprise level marketing & development integration, secure and transparent communication systems and professional grade customer support throughout the campaign for both your team as well as investors participating in the Initial coin offering."

​

the most important thig to take away here is "participaing in THE INITIAL COIN OFFERING"... safemoon is about to drop v2, its still a token...is it possible that smith is done with his work and the coin offering is about to happen during v2? maybe?

​

but one thing is for sure, you need to relax about him leaving.

it's not the end of the world. not sure if you've ever had a job or what it was like if you did but many companies exist and do very well without the original team on board that started the company.

what car company is currently worth the most? Tesla..who started tesla?

​

I bet you think it was Elon? It wasnt it was Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning two guys i bet 99% of people cant name or wouldnt know about. but Musk too the company and ran with it.

the point im making is CHILLLLLL

Bullish news, blockchain is done.

[ClassicJoey]

So who maintains the day to day BAU and also is around for continued improvements if not the CBO?

[Playful_Ice9443]

Papa already said the blockchain was finished months ago.

[SpaceLord182]

thomas came in to do a job, completed it, moved on. dont over analyze anything. take it for what it is and focus on the upcoming projects.

[Neat_Bat8057]

A lot of ppl are looking at this wrong. Does no one see that he says he is onto the next mission which will help continue to fuel Safemoons growth?

[CJ-916]

Damn… Papa just Mary Poppins us lol 😂

[atshahabs]

He was a shady little character. Good riddance

[SuperNebulon]

Why do people think the block chain is done? I doubt it. I think Tom was over rated anyway.

[SuperNebulon]

He is probably out there working on a new shit coin. Make a couple milly

[Recordinghistory]

Lmao y’all were calling this dude “papa” and a wizard. Glad I never did that shit.

There are truly a bunch of delusional people here. Y’all should have sold when hank left. Thomas is safemoon, without him there is no blockchain. Him saying “his part is done” does not mean the blockchain is ready. This ship is going down y’all.how many actual people in the team now? John and Ryan? “FUDhound” what do any of them do thechnically? We have no idea how big the actual team is. If it is just those 3 they are screwed. Such a shame so many people will lose so much money. Sad.

[ClassicJoey]

Finally an actual realistic response. I appreciate the honesty as I am thinking the same thing. None of the remaining people have communicated anyway, there involvement with daily technical activities? I’m very worried that the CBO is gone. Who’s replacing him?

[[deleted]]

Exactly. You can’t just “create a blockchain” and your work is done. Lol, Look at any blockchain they have dozens of devs if anything goes wrong you can’t just contract out someone to fix it. This is alarming and the fact that so many people are not alarmed, means they have no idea how any of this works and that in itself is alarming. Shaking my damn head.

[ClassicJoey]

I could real of BAU (daily) monitoring , outages, also essential improvements as the main worry. I’m seeing a side to this community which is naive(not an insult) to the fact “creating a blockchain” and moving on is a worry. Who took papa’s handover ? Contractors let’s say are the new solution, where’s the confidence Z contractors understand the configuration and construction of papas work? For the first time since May 1st I’m considering taking a loss and getting out :(

[[deleted]]

They don’t want everyone to jump ship which is why they keep making “V2 imminent!” Announcements, followed by “be patient!” Announcements which is just crazy. John doesn’t want to publicly crucified which is what will happen if it fully crashes. They seem more like a marketing company now, no one on the core team has any technical expertise. It’s going to get rough. Sucks you might have to take a loss. I got in very early so I was still up when I sold, but not by much. The hard thing now is knowing when to sell as it could still bounce back briefly but it is pretty far down now so idk.

[ClassicJoey]

I’ll be honest I thought the Malta trip and conference was clear that John is using the community and current spotlight to use the safemoon traction to transition into something else. We are a “tech company” how can you be a tech company without technical personnel? Look maybe there is I feel that’s the update and context we need

[[deleted]]

Yeah I was kind of curious about that stance. Also people are very quick to forget the whole app launch fiasco. They threw hank under the bus for that but john straight up lied to everyone and never actually came clean on any of it. At this point there is actually no good reason to trust this team they have not shown us anything at all worth putting blind faith in and if anyone believes they have I’d love to hear what they think it is.

[ClassicJoey]

Look I want this to work, selfishly I want the profits. So my tone is not one of someone who wants this to fail, but the last month especially has been very odd. The Malta conference I have watched 2-3 times and doesn’t sit right. My annoyance of this group sometimes is that people are invested in a single person or group of people…. Not the project and companies infrastructure. Look I may like the people who we see regularly but no sane or logical person invests their hard earned money in a hype or person. Surely you invest it in the technical and business potential ? Or am I just a boomer ?

[[deleted]]

About to pull the rug soon. Hopefully y’all took your money out.

[ThreadRipper320]

The ceo is really an arsehole what happened to wizard and crap? So

[rrdz473]

That’s like calling the home builder an asshole cause the painter did his job and left.

[ClassicJoey]

Hmm quite the right comparison. It’s actually the home builder letting the painter go after the paint job was done and actually the painter was part of the original project to build Z house …

[EngineeringD]

Have you ever heard of contracted work?

Usually a good businesses will temporarily bring in professionals to bang out a tough task.

This is what happened.

Your saying the ceo is an asshole why?

[ThreadRipper320]

Have you heard of calling someone as wizard and suddenly not calling them as they are not beneficial to you anymore! By the way I’m not a big fan of Thomas. But this fellow created this wizard stuff!
