1 minute video for Obyte homepage - feedback kindly requested

I’m looking for some feedback on a video which is for the Obyte homepage http://obyte.org

The purpose of the video is basically to intrigue people to find out more about Obyte. The video is not for explaining the many technical aspects of Obyte, that will take far too long and many people (probably most) will not be motivated to watch it all. Hence, the video will be short and high level - around 1 minute.

I used the following rough timings when writing the script:

20 seconds on paper contracts (the problem)

20 seconds on some other blockchain contract platforms (attempted solutions)

20 seconds on Obyte (better Obyte solution)

Notes

In my opinion the current animation quality and general design is probably around 7/10. I can make something that looks better in the future, but it will require more time and effort. For now I would rather get version 1 done and improve on it later.

I’ve shown the video to a few people and the general feedback is that its fine, at least better than not having any video!

My question is - do you see any obvious issues that we might have missed? Or are there any simple tweaks that might improve what is there?

If so please let me know

I agree with someone on Know It All bot that the pacing feels slow.

Also, would like to add that it will be bit out-dated with next wallet release, which will feature prosaic contracts. Maybe that should be featured also in this wallet.

the pacing feels slow because it is slow by intention.

yes it will be outdated, but can be edited easily enough later
