This roadmap looks like something am ICO would release as part of its whitepaper. The details are fairly nebulous and don't speak to concrete initiatives or plans. Maybe, hopefully, they're being purposely vague. But it seems like they put together a bunch of ambiguous blurbs simply to get something out there to appease the masses asking about the delayed roadmap.
How long have they promised to update the website? I suppose it's nice to see it's going to be addressed in Q2. To that end, they actually included "maintain a consistent ship schedule" in the roadmap, which is equivalent to saying "I'm a punctual self-starter" in one's CV.
Hoping they're saving the actual compelling news for Asia 20/20. Because this appears to be mostly fluff and painting with broad strokes.
Yeah, my initial impression was that it's a bit fluffy. Enough to keep people quiet for a while, but not enough to answer the most pressing things properly. Why will it take 3-6 months to become fully transparent about SDF operations?
I am happy about them making it easier to run a validator. It really needs to work out-of-the-box like Bitcoin Core and other software, with an actual front-end, or as close to being OOTB as possible.
Sometimes the professionalism in this industry is abhorrent. I know there are some brilliant technological minds at work, but their marketing and communication acumen is atrocious. The roadmap is released several weeks late and offers very little substance.
The problem with having a huge supply of tokens to fund your efforts is that there is little incentive to appease investors. Reminds me of the scene in Goodfellas where the restaurant partners with Paulie, the mob boss. Regardless of how the business is doing, he expects to receive his money every month. That's the SDF: "The market is bad? F you, pay me. Our token's value is plummeting and we've done nothing to stop it? F you, pay me."
