At least the SUB team is still actively working on this project. Gotta give them credit, even though we are after-all, in the bear market.

Substratum as a New VPN Alternative in China
https://www.asiacryptotoday.com/substratum-replace-vpn-china/

From the biggest corporations to the lone individual living in a remote village on the far side of the world – the Internet has connected us and made the world smaller. That does not mean it has no issues. Over the past 20 years, governments and dubious individuals have muddied the waters with censorship, bottlenecking, surveillance, cybercrime and more. Just as the Earth’s oceans choke with plastic, the Internet chokes with these toxins. Residents here in China know all to well the reach of government censorship, and up until now their only recourse has been private, centralized VPN services and Substratum is about to change it.

The homepage for Amplify has some of the worst copy I've ever seen on a "professional" product. I took some screenshots as I was reading it. I'm sure they've fixed a lot of it by now but I'm in shock by how incredibly poor this was. I hope they weren't paying anyone to write the copy because this is just absolute poop. If they paid someone to do this it's a bad sign that the Substratum management can't assess good writing and doesn't have any better options to do the work. Alternatively, they might have written the thing themselves, in which case it's terrifying that they can only write at an eighth-grade level and that they didn't realize their poor copy should be edited before it is published.

Anyway, here are some screenshots and my comments on them. The list is long and tedious but got damn, there is just a ton of shitty writing all over this project. I'm shook. Just about every paragraph had something terrible in it.

https://imgur.com/a/7tfuyE1
The author used "borne", that probably should be "was born" but isn't strictly wrong. They use borne here but don't stick to it throughout the website, though, so it looks like a mistake.
"Three separate products..." This entire thing is not a sentence.
"The ability to Connect, Earn and Spend." is absolutely not a sentence and none of those words have any reason to be capitalized.
"...digital borders raised..." Walls are raised, borders are drawn.

https://imgur.com/a/zDaVCjR
"Setting out in July 2017..." This should be "July of 2017" or something like that. This whole sentence should probably be two sentences as it wanders quite a bit.
"...one single whole hybrid web..." This is babble, and it's also a big new idea brought up near the top of the page without any explanation.
"...this project ensures..." This looks like it's the start of a second sentence. Honestly this whole sentence is just shit, I don't even know what they're doing here.

https://imgur.com/a/zztpVYt
"...gateway to allow..." This should be "that allows". Elementary stuff, guys.
"Crypto to crypto transactions..." This is an adjective and should be hyphenated. This is the first of many hyphenation errors, the author doesn't know when to use them.
"...crypto to fiat resolution..." Another adjective without hyphens.
"...third party tools..." Another adjective without hyphens.
This whole last sentence is just too long. It may be a run-on.

https://imgur.com/a/WYWELX7
"...third main need..." None of these needs were enumerated before in this document. If they're so "main" why are there three of them? Poor writing.

https://imgur.com/a/HSAYIUL
"...web-site..." The author finally uses a hyphen and they screw it up. This whole sentence is phrased weirdly and wordily. The paragraph should probably be restructured to describe distributed exchanges (also not a proper noun) first and then go on to say that they're a majority of the space. Whatever "the space" is. Also not sure why they got into the weeds with words like "relational database" in a high-level sales pitch.

https://imgur.com/a/e0ioNCg
That second paragraph is a train wreck of a run-on sentence.
"...or worse loss of funds." Try ", or worse,", it needs to have commas.
"...also." Wrong.

https://imgur.com/a/hCZ6POM
"...best in breed..." Another adjective without hyphens.
"...blockhain based..." Another adjective
"Learn More..." Not sure why More is capitalized.

https://imgur.com/a/A6x5XPf
"One of Amplify's strengths..." This is unclear. What does it mean to "serve up" a portfolio? What is this portfolio API that you're talking about. This is the first time it's been mentioned on the website.
"This is just another step..." This should be phrased differently, either folded into the sentence above it or left out entirely (if it's truly revolutionary you don't need to hit people over the head with the idea that it is).
"Tokens and Coins..." These aren't proper nouns!
"...purchase through..." purchaseD
"...through this direct integration." Wordy and unnecessary. Kill it.

https://imgur.com/a/D7c2LpU
This second paragraph is amateurishly choppy and wordy.

https://imgur.com/a/rqt8SoD
"...is huge and has never been done before!" Show, don't tell. Amateurish.

https://imgur.com/a/cjP1D4b
"...called: The Popularis Protocol." This is the wrong use of a colon and the "The" shouldn't be capitalized. The sentence should be flipped around to not use the colon.
"...the block number is an odd or even on the ledger." If a number is odd or even you just say "is odd or even." No "an". The part about "on the ledger" looks redundant in the grammar of the sentence and is likely wrong in a technical way.

https://imgur.com/a/gngM95w
Enumerating the odd and even integers? Do you really hold your readers in that low regard? I mean, I guess they have to, if they're writing like this the kind of person who falls for this poop has to be a moron. I am also pretty sure they're using the last digit of the block number for this which is not mentioned anywhere.

https://imgur.com/a/yiEIzM2
"...even numbered block..." Another adjective without a hyphen!
"...still..." this word adds nothing to the sentence and should be deleted.
The last sentence needs a "for" and has to lose a comma.

https://imgur.com/a/91mKzTT
"...odd numbered block,..." Needs a hyphen! The comma is wrong too. The previous paragraph had the bad comma as well.
"...providing..." provides.

https://imgur.com/a/k4fHPba
"...often, and fairly,..." These commas don't belong there!
Wondering if "stakeholders" is not the best word to use here given that proof of stake is part of the system while this paragraph is using it to mean all miners. On the technical front, how are you dealing with sybil attacks?

https://imgur.com/a/g3PWYlc
"...history long rooted..." How about "long-rooted history"? You probably could have googled that one.
"...technology from..." This is a run-on sentence. Going to go out on a limb and guess that Justin wrote all the copy for this website because his own bio has all these stupid mistakes in them.
"Maintaining..." This sentence should start with "After" to make a prepositional phrase out of the first part of the sentence. The sentence is incorrect without it.
"...Ecosystem..." This isn't a proper noun.

https://imgur.com/a/0nyvhqN
"...excutive team's..." Take a guess!
"3 of those..." "...1 on..." Numbers must be spelled out.
"IPO-ed" Not seeing this hyphenated in a Google search, looks wrong to me.
"...Cryptocurrency..." Lowercase!
"...institutional grade..." Hyphens! The rest of this sentence is garbage too.
"Also as importantly,..." bad grammar
"...post ICO..." HYPHENS. This sentence is also a sentence fragment.
"..Banking, Finance, Technology and Fundraising..." none of these are proper nouns. Not even a little bit.
"...hungry maturing..." This should be a series.

https://imgur.com/a/FpOPUaD
"...Investment Advisor." This isn't a proper noun.
"...engineering, Warren..." I think this comma is wrong but not sure.
"...Stocks, Options, Futures, and Cryptocurrency..." None of these are proper nouns as well. Wondering if these two bios were both written by the same secondary author.

Anyway that was a bunch of nonsense, this whole thing is amateurish crap, I can't believe nobody else is in as much disbelief as I am so I guess that means the people buying this thing are a bunch of dumb sheep.

CryptoPay & Amplify by Substratum: The Next Leap Forward in Cryptocurrency Adoption
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bawaCcBLAiQ&feature=youtu.be

The Substratum Network ecosystem will contain a payment gateway in the form of CryptoPay that will offer immediate fiat resolution for vendors through the Amplify Cryptocurrency Exchange. This will propel cryptocurrency adoption to the point of an actual currency by making goods & services sale and purchase something that is truly feasible. In this video Justin Tabb, CEO of Substratum, explains how these two products work perfectly together.

This will back up the above comment.  It might turn out to be nothing but if you've got Substratum I'd do some investigating.

Substratum is doing another ICO :

They haven't released any product that promises what they are doing. They're doing a 2nd ICO for a new product for an exchange now in October, before they release any decentralized internet product and will have NEW token alongside SUB.

They have been spending more of there ethereum than they ever have. they first said they will decentralize the internet, now they are making a crypto payment tool and now raising an ICO for a new exchange yet do not accept their 1st token "sub" for it. Only BTC and ETH.

Not only that, they are making a NEW token called AMPX. This is starting to feel like ponzi scheme after 1 year and have taken thousands of investors for a ride without any promises fulfilled.

https://decrypto.net/2018/08/substratum-is-losing-vision-focus/

right or not you said I didn't know it either. maybe this is new information for me about this platform, I hope there is clarification from this platform so as not to cause noise. the user or investor hopes for this clarification soon.

Communication is a real problem in this space. There is so much speculation when investing in cryptos and companies don't seem to get how important it is to address rumours like this, or to communicate news in such a way that it doesn't start rumours. I hope there is nothing to it because I really like what this project is setting out to do but it doesn't help if they keep silent.
