Dan should have nothing to do with the launch of the chain, him even pushing for the launch is far from what he stated that he was going to do (Let the community launch). We don't want EOS decisionmaking to be centralized by Dan, like eth is by vitalik.

AFAIK they are still waiting for the third party security firm to complete the audit. They still find bugs running basic commands in the chain. We don't want EOS to become a new ETH, where people lost a lot of money.

A lot of people pushing for launch have never launched a big operation, or properly validated, tested and audited code. I fully trust that if they say no-go, it´s for good reasons.

However, I am also with you on that we can´t wait for an eternity, but it´s only been a week. B1 did a lot of governance changes last minute in the system, which is one of the reasons the launch is delay.

If you want it to go faster, go and see in what way you can help, and be a productive member of the launch. If you are not capable of doing that, let them do the work.

Atleast, this is my point of view, after following the BPs since january, in their testnets, discussions and interviews. I have complete trust in that they know what they are doing, and if any of the skilled BPs claim that the launch aint ready, then the launch aint ready.
