From my perspective, as a small miner since almost a year and a small contributer to reactor, DMDs core team should try to make this wonderfull coin not dependent on uncertain factors from the outside, but build its own ecosystem driven by a handfull of trusted people.
I think this whole BTC cloud mining thing is going to fail sooner then later, because energy prices are rising, general crypto adoption is slowly rising and BTC price ist not going to rise like crazy, but slowly, difficulty will continue to rise as well and hardware development is really expensive. I can see the point where hardware development will hardly pay off, without fatous costumers, who need to buy miners, that realistically will never generate a big profit. DMD should not jump on this train driven by lies, but stay true and confident.
What this core team has delivered so far is truly exceptional, the DMD community on it's own is a grown up, sharing and friendly bunch of people. We should not lose this reputation because of uncertain factors from the outside, that we can not influence.
DMD Cloudmining and DMD Multipool and and Reactor are not core elements of DMD Diamond
its optional services and projects that are optional
people can take part or not
i think DMD Multipool have lowest entry barrier for people who own mining gear
special after pow reward reduction i expect lot people to use it
but still its not required
DMD Cloudmining is a interesting project for people who want to give cloudmining a chance but dont wana spend time for it
but DMD dont need DMD Cloudmining
DMD need capitalisation for increase of liquidity
DMD Cloudmining is one way to reach this
but people direct buy coins by themself at market is same effect
