the concept is good but i see a vulnerability and a potential threat of centralization if only 100 validators will ever be in place. one of the core principles of the crypto space is descentralisation. giving only 100 people the potential power to run the show is a big no no for this coin. and after a while, only semux whales will run the blockchain
I think you are totally wrong.
Compare Semux to Bitcoin. Bitcoin is very poorly decentralized and currently mined by only
16 pools.
6 of these pools account for
81.5% of the blocks in the last 24h!!!

I will repeat because it's worth making this point again
6 pools account for
81.5% of Bitcoin blocks mined in the last 24h!!!
Now, lets have a look at Semux... It's very simple
There is 100 validators and each gets exactly 1/100th on average of the blocks in 24h.
Thats pretty good don't you think? Bitcoin 6, Semux 100!
As for the whales issue, the devs have been doing a good job running different kinds of airdrops, you can always go and buy some for yourself and run a validator or delegate to a public pool and receive rewards. There's nothing stopping you from buying. Semux is on an exchange.
