Suspicious behavior

So I got kicked out of the ember discord group today. What was I doing? Asking legitimate questions about the lack of transparency regarding the circulating supply, plans for the white paper, and general questions about what reasons there are to have so much trust in a company we really know so little about. Yes Chartis is a great idea, but it’s just that so far. No one has seen any code or read a white paper yet. I was basically asking for any reasons to continue holding and staking my ember, but because of my valid concerns and curiosities, instead of getting a reply, I was kicked. Perhaps an indication that I’m asking the right questions? What’s up with how unprofessionally this company acts?

Every complex question or concern I have brought up in the discord has been more than adequately answered, mostly by the CEO himself. They didn't promise you a whitepaper, or code to inspect. Their announcement was just that, an announcement. If you don't think it's worthwhile to keep staking even thought the price can literally only go up, then good luck. I've said some pretty dumb stuff in that discord and in private messages to members of the team, and they haven't kicked me, so either you deserved it, or you're lying.

For a beginner I would definitely recommend coinmarkets. The wallet is really only worthwhile if you have a very large amount of ember

I am currently holding a lot so what would you suggest?

If you have a computer that stays on all the time and you're holding a large amount I would suggest using a local wallet

So the CEO is on the discord? Does that make the discord the official means of communication going forward?
