Let me start by saying what is about to follow is not FUD, but simply valid concerns with this project.
1) I started following Hadron.cloud from day one last year when they started this thread on BitcoinTalk. It has been 10 months or so and the Whitepaper is still "coming soon".
2) The social proof system seems harmless enough until you realize the immense load of information and connecting all your personal dots that can be achieved by gathering all this data about you. The social proof system
will allow Hadron to link the real me (Facebook) with all my other social media identities. Now I do not know about any of you, but I do not have many of these all ready with followers so that alternative accounts can be
used. That said, I understand the need to have people involved who are active in the community and promote the blockchain.
3) Right in the beginning I posted some of my hardware configs ranging from normal consumer machines all the way through 16 node Compute CPU clusters, GFX clusters etc. If you guys are serious about testing, then why
would you not allow such a setup to mine based on the fact that I do not want to share my real identity.
4) I like what little information I have been able to gather about Hadron.cloud, but is is hardly enough to be able to create meaningful content in order to promote the project without at least a high level whitepaper available.
Serious about testing/getting involved, not willing to share the real me for obvious reasons. I think you guys will find that I am very active in other [Suspicious link removed]munities (mostly on discord) and help out wherever I can. Those guys don't go asking things like "so what's your real name dude"
Help me out here guys...
Hi delarey,
You have raised some valid points, I am sure the team would appreciate all types of feedback.
I believe, although not much is being shared in the public domain, the team is focused on developing the infrastructure. I personally would prefer the project in place before ICO, which adds credibility. It's just my opinion.
As far as social proofs are concerned, that is the way for the team to gauge one's interest and involvement in the project. I am sure the team is not interested in knowing who you are, rather what you contribute to the project.
As regard to mining, the team is focused on making it available for everyone on any device. If they iron out issues with weak devices, it will help prove the technology. They will need cluster and other types of large infrastructure when it is live. But for the time being I guess, their motive is to test the tech on smaller and widely available devices.
I agree on lack of information available to create meaningful content. I am waiting for the updated Whitepaper as well.
Again, these are my personal views and I base this entirely on my understanding. It's good to hear different view points and learn from each other.
I hope you work out a way to continue with this project without revealing your real identity. All the best.
Regards,
Pushpraj
