Hey Guys.... Blocknet got a mention on Youtube by Carter Thomas at Coin Mastery https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XYZsadeiTb0.  I know a lot of people that follow him and I think his input is very valuable to the project especially now that it's on the rise.  He currently has 18K followers!  He seemed pretty interested in Blocknet and it's use case, but he has one big issue was transparency with the development team.  To be honest, it's never really bothered me as a long time investor until now that he just mentioned it.  I've been investing in and watching Blocknet since the beginning in 2014.  In the last 3-6 months I've noticed that all the new coins that are really taking off and new ICO's are putting faces to the project.  I think this is something that has definitely changed and something that the Blocknet team should change too.  I think in the past with government regulation and such, developers were afraid to step in front of the camera for whatever reason.  I think now that mass adoption is occurring and people with big money are entering the market, this is something that needs to change for Blocknet to increase investor confidence.  I don't really see any negative drawback's to not doing it as there may have been in the past.  Again, that's my $.02, but I think the point is really valid.  I'm a member of the Slack group, so I'll probably pop over there at some point and mention it.

Again, in my opinion, we got a good mention on Youtube and I'm pretty sure more will follow soon!  I hope we keep up the solid momentum and Blocknet continues on it's upward trend!!  My holding is getting crazy valuable, but I still don't see any reason to let it go!!          

Thanks for telling us about that video!

Yes, our identities have been public since before we founded the Blocknet:
- Arlyn Culwick (me): https://www.linkedin.com/in/arlynculwick/
- Dan Metcalf: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dan-metcalf-b821a812/



I think Carter was more or less saying there was nothing on the website that he could find, that said who the developers are and what projects they have been involved with.  My advise would be to implement some small changes on the website to make that information more accessible and transparent.  Again, I think it creates investor confidence and shows there isn't anything to hide.  Also now that it's been mention by someone a lot of people are following, it would be great to see it changed so anyone looking back or researching the coin will see the concerns were heard and addressed.  His comparison to ARK was very apparent where it shows the development team, pictures of them and what experience they have to hep the coin move forward.

Again, I think we are on the way up and we need investor support.  Anything that could help that should be implemented.  I'm sure it's an easy change for you guys to the website.
