Talk of "medical records on the blockchain" simply makes the coin look silly, and no one will take you seriously. No offense, just offering some constructive criticism.
That may be a realistic problem.
And in different countries, you face different laws.
I don't know what the laws are in other countries. Maybe something like this makes sense somewhere outside the US. In any case, this medical records stuff should be presented as just one of many possible use cases of the technology, not as a singular goal. It is mentioned multiple times in the "white green paper" that was just posted. More universal, flexible, multi-purpose coins that any developer can build an app on top of is what people want to invest in these days. The overemphasis on the medical records stuff makes it sound like the coin's development is going to pigeonhole it into this one specific purpose (and a relatively far-flung and unrealistic purpose at that).
POS? I am a bit ignorant of developments in the land of cryptonote coins, but as far as I know that would make this the first cryptonote coin with POS correct?
I greatly appreciate all the tips and even criticism.
Believe me I understand the ramifications of breaking confidentiality. I should mention i work in the medical field so I have some insight into the subject.
The idea was that a universal database would greatly improve the current system. Time ,money,labor and even lives can be saved.
Maybe I should mention in the paper more clearly that this can and will be a private application for the use of hospitals and medical professionals. I do not see a problem as long as it does not violate any laws.
This at some point will turn from a solo project into a needed dev team. I already some good contacts in mind.
With that said I 100% agree that I should take the focus off of the medical aspect. After all that is just one application to be built on the chain or like you said can be an example for use cases.
Here is why there is so much emphasis on the medical part. This project started with that idea. Since then, this has evolved into so much more.
So I should make sure to separate the chains from dev created applications.
Which is something I do want to emphasize, that the identity project devs will be producing applications. We don't want to create a project with a focus on applications and not create any our selves.
Anyways thanks again for your input, I definitely will edit those pages ,those are WIPs anyways. Also If you think this is jam packed those are only two pages of the whole paper and roadmap.
Cheers
Edit, I fixed grammatical nonsense that I typed from my phone. I do most of my replying in between squad runs.
Though I am not quite familiar with this field, I can feel the serious attitude from dev's reply.
I put my believe in this project.
