Seems like a solid project, but I can't fathom how one can possibly hope to create a scalable distributed network that can handle bulky media network traffic while also promising anonymity. People usually have a hard enough time tackling those problems separately.

I share your thoughts also but according to the team this is a research project and its normal that it has complexities. In this sense, we should rather trust the ability of the team to deliver it.

Since this is a research project do you worry about how long it can take to achieve some of the items? Do you have any concerns that the timeline can get stretched out much longer than the planned roadmap?

Our roadmap was based on reaching the original cap of 7.8m funding. Now that we have increased the cap there will be more funds to hire more of the world’s leading developers, thus speeding up our present timeline and securing our competitive foothold.

Whitepapers are aimed at a very wide range of people most of them don't have advanced technical knowledge, so it should be understandable if you ask me. At least basics, so everybody could understand what the project is about at its core.

The whitepaper is technical because we're a research project about an advanced blockchain protocol. We can't show an MVP of sorts as that would have no meaning to us. Nowadays most whitepapers are full of buzzwords. Dusk research paper is exactly the opposite and way more advanced. It goes to a great extent to describe accurately the technology used and the algorithm. You won’t find details of business development or even use cases. This is because it is intended as a development manifesto (a proof of concept - similar to what an aforementioned prototype or MPV would prove) of a complete system with all components laid out and specified quite formally.

We have released a mini series on Medium called "Dusk in a nutshell" which covers some of the more technical parts in the whitepaper and explain them in a somewhat easier manor.

This seems interesting. But there KYC date will not be avaliable for third parties? It will be safe for people? And I asked about capabilities create tokens, not about launch ICOs only and KYC.

Could you rephrase the question? I honestly have no clue what you're asking about Wink

Independent rating platform Icobench rated this project 4.0/5.0, this is good result: https://icobench.com/ico/dusk-network

To be honest i don't care what Icobench says anymore after they praised and promoted hashrental scam and then quietly removed it after the ico.
And only 4? Dusk is a 5/5 anyway in my books.

This is just so sad. I don't know who relies on these rating websites. They have some sort of algorithm that is far from covering all potential factors that contribute to a success of a project and they think they can produce a trustworthy opinion. So misleading sometimes.

Bitpay and Mastercard! Wow what a cv.


An article about him and his role would be amazing i must say. It can draw more attention easily.


I think he will contribute to the project by sharing his experience and expertise on his previous jobs which is quite relevant.

Yeah, previously, at the bull run, the really good marks started at 4.2-4.3. Now, it's lower because not so many successful projects appear.

don't trust this too much. it's just an estimation. better to look into the project yourselves.

There are still no experts/people giving it a rating, the ico profile rating is from the icobench bot right? So i think the score will change later if people giving it rating.

i also believe that this project is basically a research project so very complex, i hope the team is able to complete it and offer a high quality network with unique features...
