Why STRAT pumped so hard for last few days? Almost 2x in just 2 days only. IS there are some good news?
I asked about real business, but didnt get answer. Someone from real companies working with Stratis or not? This using anywhere?
I can't speak for why Stratis has been performing well on the markets. Could be any number of reasons: could be speculation that Stratis would follow Waves' recent market action (for some reason people group Stratis and Waves together and draw parallels between price action of the two), could be that the speculative cycle has been completed after the capitulation candle on Binance just over two weeks ago, could be that the recent delivery of 6 of the roadmap items (plus another 2 named for Dec 27th) has given investors confidence, could be simple FOMO, could also be some contribution via value introduction from recent use of the ICO Platform (would have to check volumes to see if there's any credence to this, but I haven't done so yet) and so the list goes on.
As for the real business question, the short answer is yes: Gluon, for example - a real company with turnover and a working product which will be building off the Stratis Platform. Plus a number of startups, notably the recent announcement of MediConnect, who will be paying Stratis for consultancy + BaaS. If you want, you can also count the 10+ projects building off the C# Full Node, but since they don't play directly into the revenue generation for Stratis Group Ltd itself, I'm not really inclined to include them.
However, we can extend our answer for greater clarity: one thing that we can say for sure is that usage of the platform is
not the reason for the recent price action. That is, I am confident in saying that the mechanisms of value introduction to STRAT from usage of the services of the Stratis Platform have not been the sole cause of the recent positive price movement. The reason I can be confident in saying this is that the Stratis Platform is only just on the cusp of being brought out in a production ready state.
I think this is a point that needs to be repeated at the moment: The Stratis Platform is only just coming out now. Business adoption hasn't been huge, because what would have they been adopting? By the end of this year, the Stratis Platform will be ready for adoption. The next challenge is achieving it. I've been fortunate to spend a little time in the Stratis offices with various members of both management and the dev team and I find them to be competent and passionate. If they can deliver adoption with the same efficacy they delivered the tech, then I think we will see significant use of the platform from enterprises (and individuals), beyond the three or four businesses currently lined up and waiting for the services to be production ready.
