Sorry Penny, but the exchange is independent of PAYAABB. They should not need the payment platform to be functional in order for the exchange to be trading coins. In fact, it should be the opposite way. The coins should have liquidity and be trading regularly for merchants to want to use it as a currency for their payment systems. Just that alone shows this is already not working properly.
And you've been around here for years with the rest of us. When management says they're going to have a big announcement, it's usually a dud. The only announcement I feel is going to have any weight is if they have an independent audit. Not thoughts of an audit, or revisiting the idea of an audit, but an actual auditor has been hired or has completed the audit. Outside of that, everything else is fluff and is just going to kick the can down the road. And hitting it out of the park in 2022 will be another lie to add to everything else.
