This project looks like a dark horse. I have not seen a project like this before, the nearest I can compare to this project is Nano, which did a over 9000% ROI run in 17/18.

You can mine on a laptop and receive equal amount of pay. No other blockchain can claim this.

The devs are literally too autistic to care about price or new exchanges. Unironically over soon if no big news in the coming months

how is that bad? devs should focus on the tech not moonboi talk, this will pump for sure, it may take a while because marketing is not a priority but sooner or later it will be, enjoy good mining rates and low prices while you can

that's a good thing. think about Chainlink, their team doesn't care about wen moon sirs pajeets either and just developed their project + connections for years.

What value does the token have?

Why is this even a thing? It seems like running a blockchain based on humans instead of mining hardware.

The way I see it, the thing really starts to have value once something 100k or 1m people are on the network. Almost every person will be mining (assuming the price increases), making it an incredibly decentralized blockchain.

Proper usecases need to be sorted out still, but having a completely anonymous network of people that you KNOW are humans has a lot of potential.

Problems with the project:

1) No regular person, who is not a NEET, has the time to do a validation session. Here in the UK it's at 2:30pm, which is a time when most people are working (unless you're lucky and validation happens on a weekend). Unless there is widespread adoption (and I mean widespread) and there is a worldwide recognition that people have to do validation at this set time, it will never be useful. This will never happen due to the fact that for widespread adoption to happen people have to suffer this until then. Even if it changes so that validation happens on a weekend, there are cultural differences that means that some people wont be able to validate, plus some people actually do stuff on weekends instead of browse Zig Forums.
2) Culture affects flips quite a lot. What seems obvious to you may be very confusing for someone, in let's say, China.
3) You can run more than one human node. For me this is a dealbreaker since the whole premise of the project is that you can only run one, so it fails at the core problem it was supposed to fix. They aren't planning on changing anything about this either because it is fundamentally broken.
4) Normies will just log in with Facebook or Google or something, too much effort to have a human Idena identity.
5) "Muh UBI" - The reward drops proportional to the number of people on the network, so the rewards will be worth pennies by the time this project becomes universal, which it wont.

I've heard in my time that the lead developers wanted the invites to only be distributed among your family members and friends, which is just delusional (who's family is interested in crypto lmao). This just shows the overconfident attitude the devs have, that this will automatically take off when it clearly wont. Sure it seems to solve a "gap in the market" so to speak, but it has many flaws and deluded devs.

The devs are going to address points 1 & 2 with sharding, which will have shard specific validation seremonies.

800 people did not show up to the last validation. That's 31.5% of all people on the network. If you don't think this is a problem then there is no helping you. The network primarly consists of NEETs and community developers at the moment, so with a failure rate of 41.66% in total with people that should have the time to do validation, imagine if normies ever got on the network, that actually have other things they have to do.
