Do a lot of alts have a trust problem? yes or no? and why?

i think yes. they have a trust problem. why should i trust someone that is hiding behind a pseudonym? i think a trustworthy dev can tell us his/her name.why should they not tell the public who they are if they do not want to scam someone.

what do you think?

why is satoshi anon again?

IMHO a REAL cryptocurrency does not need a dev which name/address is public.
crypto should work without any centralization and focusing on a dev just adds centralization.

get a team of independant devs which believe in the project is way better: they can check each other ;-)

in the beginning it may help to get starting capital and investors... but a currency should not be for shortterm!

This x 1000. In fact, I'd go as far as saying that it's better if the devs are anon because the minute you introduce any personality behind a dev/coin then it will divide people (and it could be dangerous to the devs). I feel like every coin should be started by a handful of devs but the control should be eventually passed onto everyone else but the devs. I mean what is true decentralization if not that?
