Ask HN: To Sunset or Not to Sunset..?
Ask HN: To Sunset or Not to Sunset..?

Hey all, So I have never actually posted on HN however I have been a reader for many years. My time, however, has come to ask a question and potentially some advice or support. I'm a bit of a project addict, although I have always been in employment my whole career I am constantly coming up with ideas and trying my hardest to push them out there into real business models. It's a passion and a hobby of mine, my current employer is fully aware of my "side hustles" and most managers I have worked with in my career have always been welcoming as these side projects tend to really stretch our knowledge. I am sure I am not alone. Now, the problem I currently face is about one of my projects under the guise of The Night Project (https://ift.tt/3cOlewE) Like all projects, I tend to stumble at the point of financials (funding) or resources (people) - And sadly this project I am about to share with you is no exception. Crypto Dip is something I started earlier in the year and have been working on and off to get to a nice live and steady state to really push. It has been welcomed in all of the channels I have shared it, however, there is some farce competition. Sadly, I am starting to fall behind and the competitors who clearly have thousands of users already are starting to implement the same features I have endeavoured to push. Crypto Dip, does not exactly bring anything unique, a lot of platforms offer the same. But the focus was always on education and simplicity. Bringing new people into the crypto world. Anyway, I waffle (as always) - Please check out the website (WIP) and also the WhitePaper: - Website: https://cryptodip.net - WhitePaper: https://ift.tt/313Uo1k What I really need for CryptoDip to really be something is help, actual physical engineering help from people who want to have a slice of the cake. And I mean an even share in the project and it's Token holdings to help me push this over the finishing line. What I am looking for from the community is the following: - Should I sunset this and focus on personal life and other matters I have at hand. - Should I look to diversify the project and take on some other engineers, sadly I can not pay, but I can offer token share and project equity share. - Should I sunset the project and cut my losses, I've put a few thousand into this project thus far not to mention the engineering time. This project came up mid way through working on a game and sadly I think if I didn't do this project I would have the Game live, which to me is a much more exciting thing to be working on. If anyone is interested please reach out to me, Discord is probably the best place (https://ift.tt/3xpbouL) I am looking for any experience or budding Python Engineers with some micro service experience who would really like to help take this to the next level. If I am unable to find the help then I think the time will have come to sunset the project and archive the codebase. Thank you :bow:
