shit happens. startups fail all the time. infra is expensive
a lot of trenchers greatly underestimate the time, money, and energy that goes into building a product
especially with the added pressure of a token
and no, the $300 you get in rewards on low volume does not cover your RPC, AI, and Hosting expenditures
BUT - (and this is a big but)
you don't sell first and then announce. if you're the dev, you sell last. you eat the loss. or at least give people 24h to exit cos you gotta make some money too.
this must be law.
We're winding RelAI down. Services go offline Monday, July 20.
We put a lot of ourselves into this one, and we're proud of what we shipped. But the infrastructure and the engineering time cost more than the two of us can keep carrying, and we'd rather stop cleanly than let it degrade further.
Please withdraw any remaining balances before Monday.
To everyone who supported us, and to those who built on RelAI: thank you. Genuinely.
