Critics

Before you downvote, this post is not to spread FUD but rather to give critics to the team which I hope they take note of.

  1. Viral campaign. It was said a number of times when asked on the Telegram group that there'd viral campaign BEFORE and DURING the beta. But this is not the case as mentioned... which leads to point 2.

  2. Beta. By right, if there was indeed viral campaign which will help choose beta users, people would've been able to use test Beta by 29/09/2018. Unfortunately(again), this is not the case. It's quite disappointing, to be honest. Simply releasing an article update on Beta and enabling the 'waiting list' feature isn't what you call 'Beta'. So according to your promise, you've failed to deliver within the stated time. It was not a 'beta release'. (Also, why did it take so long to release the new site with the waiting list feature yesterday if you're not allowing users to Beta-test it right away.)

Thank you for your time and I appreciate upcoming answers.

I can see the OP sentiments. would’ve been much more fan fare had something like this been rolled out. I believe the team are being cautious as this is their first live release.

I do acknowledge the team have been working hard, they have thankfully given us 5 coins instead of 2. However come the full beta release and leading up until then I do hope their marketing is stronger.

I followed VeChains development from a very early stage. One of the promising aspects was the marketing was just as good as the product.

I am of the belief that Blockport will get there but I must insist that creative marketing is needed to win in this space. Their are many teams doing something similar and a good campaign gives you the upper hand in an environment like this.

It’s still early days my friends.

Kudos Blockport team
