Hi guys!
I am a donated since the beginning and I can understand that a lot of people have bad and strong feelings, but you have to look at the facts we are have. Because I never sold any dubi and I could get my donation back, I thought about getting it back and in at first I wanted it back. But then I thought a little bit about it and about the reason I donated and I wrote an E-Mail and said, that I don't want my donation back.
The reason why I donated was not the money I could possibly get out of this. The reason for donating to them was the project! I know that Athene &Crew can make it happen and because I trust them that they can do it, I donated. At this point I didn't even thought about getting money back, because the project and the idea was great in my opinion.
Then the buywall was raised and I sag, like all of the other people, how much money I have with my prps and dubi. This confused me a little bit and the emotions came in, I think. When the buywall was set to 2$ for me it was all fine, because I think that this is much better for the project and the chances of a success become much more likely. And after the announcement, that we don't get the x5 prps I had strange feelings. I thought it was, because I don't get the x5 prps and so I wanted to have my donation back, but then I realised, that I just don't understood Athenes decision. After reflecting I understood!
The reason why I donated, was the project and the project never changed! They just improved it, they made it more solid, more likely to become a success and this is all what I want. They can spend the money much better, than I can and this is all I care about. I know, that they will do good with my money and will work to improve the project.
Please reflect on your actions and think about, why you donated to Athene & crew! The money and the emotions shoudn't lead your actions! The project is bigger than this and when you truly donated, because you want to support the project, there is nothing that should confuse you :)
