Thank you very much for this really nice review. Obviously, I share your firm belief in a bright future for the Byteball project and I must say that I am super thrilled to be a part of this wonderful project.

I think very few people realise how big a difference they have an opportunity to actually make. Even doing a post like this really helps the project. As you already noticed - Byteball marketing hasn't exactly been best in class. Instead, the focus has been on building a rock solid platform and a wide range of super useful features that a lot of other projects can only dream of ever achieving.

At Byteball, we have this saying, that it will be easier to fix inefficient marketing than inefficient technology ;-)

There's a slight mistake in your article, though - you write that there's only 1 million Bytes ... actually, that's 1 million gigabytes. But other than that, it's pretty spot on, and I'm actually surprised you've been able to get such a thorough understanding of the project in such short amount of time.

The Use-a-Thon that has a 4 week period, is designed so participants will have time to get familiar with the platform and explore different use cases that is made possible through the features of the platform.

Trading and speculation won't lead to anything long term, so I am absolutely convinced, that encouraging people to explore use cases to increase adoption, is what will prove to benefit the project in the long run. And on that note - you're absolutely right in saying that Byteball is here for the long haul.

One benefit of the rather small core-development team is, that they're able to work very fast because they don't have the coordination overhead and problems you often see with large development teams. We are still small, fast and effective.

Once again thank you for the great review, and keep up the good work of spreading awareness of the Byteball project.
