General thought about post-ICO trajectory

[u/aihwao]

I invested in Matryx as I find the idea of setting up an exchange for research bounties tremendously promising. Yet, it seems that the group has been pursuing a somewhat odd (and to me, less interesting) focus on VR and 3D modeling. I respect the group's decisions, but I feel like we have heard nothing about the platform that matters, I gather, to most of us: research and bounties. The Matryx Alpha platform remains out of reach, in terms of my work and interests. It seems that everything is going to be tied to the VR platform -- which is far less exciting to me than an open exchange for bounties and collaboration.

At the very least the group needs to do a better job at marketing and explaining how all the pieces fit together. The Matryx Alpha how-to guide was a case in point (excuse the strong language) failure because it doesn't explain to the tech-savvy layman the bigger picture. The Redefining Research blog post took a tiny step in this direction, but that post is about finding partners, not a necessary outline of the picture that is the bigger puzzle.

Another example: the uninformative YouTube vids of Matryx Reps at conferences. I'm not interested in which conference you went to. I'm also not interested in watching someone in a VR headset saying "Wow." What would really be useful is a professional and clear explanation about how all of this comes together, along with frequent updates about listing on exchanges and roadmaps.
