We are all aware of Ledger, Trezor, and Xeeda. Cool hardware wallets, which thousands of people use daily.
These companies isn't funded by any ICO's, they don't even run any blockchain solutions, but again, why should they?
But the question still stands:
If Ledger made their own "Ledger-Coin" would you invest in it? Why? Why not? I'm asking because a project I'm a huge fan off is building their own hardware device, called:
VIPER. This hardware device will compete with the 3 brands mentioned above, but this project does have it's own blockchain, and in fact, the hardware device is just a small part of the whole project.
I'm talking about Stakenet. Not sure how many of you are familiar with XSN, but it's THE leading Lightning Network developing project out there. In fact, they helped the Litecoin team implement Lightning on mainnet.
I really wonder why this project is SO under the radar, probably because of the bear market?
Not gonna shill the project too heavy here, as most people hate that, but IF you want to read more about it, I made another thread right here explaning it all (with pics):
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/stakenet-xsn-the-next-50x-altcoin-out-there-5167414So the question still stands,
would you invest in a hardware device project? Afterall every single day we hear the following: "There is
no REAL product, the project is based on hype alone, not worth shit", which makes Stakenet stand out completely from the crowd it seems?
