Dear Cloak Community, In light of the recent 'buzz' around Cloak, I'd like to take a moment to try and calm things down a bit. There are a lot of things being said about Cloak that are pure conjecture, so please take external statements with a pinch of salt. If information does not come directly from the team, then please be mindful. If you are considering purchasing Cloak, please bear in mind the huge increase in price that has occurred during the last few weeks and be aware that the price can drop just as sharply. Please never invest more than you can afford to lose! We still have a number of development/technical tasks to address prior to the open sourcing of the project, so please keep this in mind. We do not want anyone getting burned! Also, please remember that we are still a small team with limited resources. There are lots of comparisons to Monero floating around at the moment and many of them are incorrect. Monero is a great coin and is considerably further down the line than Cloak in terms of development progress and functionality. If you are new to cryptocurrency, please be sensible and diversify your investments. Investing everything in a single project can be very risky! Peace and Love, cashmen (and Team Cloak)
Firstly, We'd like to issue another warning in light of the continued crazy price increases of late. The Cloak price has increased 10x since June 1st. This is far beyond slow, steady growth, please be cautious as there is bound to be a price correction in the near future. If you are new to cryptocurrency, please do your research and invest wisely. PLEASE diversify your crypto assets to hedge against price drops! If you are new, investing in some of the more stable top coins would be sensible. Until Cloak has had some considerable peer review, it remains a HIGLY SPECULATIVE investent. Please, please act accordingly... We would to reiterate that Cloak is a community project. A number people currently working on Cloak came from the Cloak community and helped to resurrect the project after the previous team departed. New people have joined the team since, also from the Cloak community. Cloak is still an unfunded project and team members work on a volunteer basis as Cloak has no budget to pay for staff members. If any newcomers to Cloak have the relevant skills and would like to get involved in the project, you are as always welcome. We are still keen to have the Enigma and CloakShield code audited prior to code release and would like to get this process kickstarted. Releasing without an audit would be irresponsible and an audit would allow us to address any potential issues and suggested improvements prior to public code release. To this end, we have set up both a Cloak and BTC address for funding the audit. Collecting funds for the audit will give us a good idea of the prospective budget and allow us to get things moving. If anyone here is interested in auditing the code, or knows someone who is, then please get in touch.In other news, as you're hopefully aware, we are currently in the process of moving Cloak to a new codebase, in preparation for code release. The Enigma and CloakShield code will be ported to the new codevase as part of this process. For audit purposes, the Enigma and CloakShield code could be audited in the existing codebase to save time and any changes could be made to the new codebase prior to release. We've also sourced some funds for a new development Mac, which is now in the posession of our mobile developer who will soon begin work on an iOS based Cloak wallet for iPhone/iPad etc. We will keep you updated as development progresses.
