That fact that you wrote " none of his points make much sense" , but somehow forget to mention even one of them kinda speaks for itself.
Many days has passed and its funny, how i said that i stand behind what i wrote and noone tried to prove me wrong also speaks for itself.
FUD as you called it is so easy to be destroyed,when it is not backed by anything.
Sadly everything i write is backed, thats why the only thing you can come up with is childish level or response.
But that kinda sums some of the sheeple sonm investors, that keep believing that somehow this project will turn into billions.
I have said :show me what is " fabricated lies" .O yeah there are none, its all facts that is out there in the open if you dig enough.
"Most hard working devs and great roadmap" ! I have heard this somewhere....I remember ,in every project forum/telegram/slack....
In the end it is all about what they promise to deliver and what they deliver right?
Im really sorry to somehow threw reality in your unicorn dream.....
Go check sonm deals monitor and sonm community bot on telegram. It tells you all you want to see.
Hashrate of 2700 mh/s .Lowest since the start of the livenet .At this moment, total 53.17 USD/day are spent on the entire SONM platform.1.5 year since ICO, with 6 months livenet/working product
Merry Christmas, hanukkah,ramadan or whatever you like.....
PS. For close to an year sonm team has shouted all around " We will provide similar services to the established cloud providers but TIMES CHEAPER"
Well if not all, most of the companies when someone tell them: you can cut your expenses by few hundred % will atleast try it right?
And what happened ? Ashmanov ,Shotty and Teleport ....#50ghostcompanies lol
Something doesnt really adds up with snm right ?
They also stopped with the tweets like gtx1060 bringing 1$ a day, or the record number of 3242341 deals
that equals 50$
Makes you wonder why?
You raise many valid points and it's good that you are throwing around some reality. SONM is far from perfect, like MiBambino pointed out they are lacking in the sales and marketing department. However when I compare SONM to most ICOs out there. They have shown to be a lot more competent than most. Delivering before a deadline is just an example of why I still give SONM a benefit of a doubt. So far they maybe have not been perfect, but in my opinion it could be a lot worse.
The fact that none of SONM's official partnerships are worth talking about cannot be contributed to only bad marketing and sales. We are still in a period where the average joes have heard about crypto but are extremely skeptical. So even if you go to a company with an offer that your service is many times cheaper. The only thing the no coiners brain will hear is crypto = bubble, crypto = scam etc.
The point I am trying to make is that you are correct we are 1.5 years after ICO and it is not as booming as we hoped. But do take into account that crypto as whole does not have a mature image towards the people outside of crypto. It does not matter how much money SONM puts into marketing and sales, one company cannot change the whole stigma around crypto. It has to be a collective effort.
