Electroneum is addressing the #1 reason this demographic is not currently invested: barrier to entry. Any of us involved in this movement that have told our friends and family about this know that people are fascinated and interested but lack the savvy to truly participate. There is huge "understanding-of-math-privilege" when it comes to crypto. A ton of people want in but just don't know how or are too intimidated. I know scores of these people.
By virtue of even being on this forum you all are part of an elite group of individuals that simply understand the computer science or even just the inarguable numbers behind cryptocurrency. Electroneum is truly the first to break open this barrier to entry. I know about 12-14 people personally that are going to download the app on November 1st just because it is simple enough for them to handle at that point. These are people that would love to buy into this ICO RIGHT NOW, but as I said, it's just too complicated for them. It's out of reach. November 1st is going to change all that.
I could not agree with this more. Their are lots of people who want to buy this, but they lack the know how of how to do this. Also on the mobile mining issue, I take the side that it is a good thing it is not actually mining because the average person does not want their phone to be slow and will uninstall the app because of this. The simulation is perfect for mining on the phone and leave the real mining to us on the computers.
