I am glad to closely follow any project that puts its core values first (and that those values aren't profit, moon, profit). Nevra reminds me of the Decred project with its goals of project equality and freedom through the blockchain and in the end fostering equality through the results of the project. Strong decentralization is key towards achieving Nevra's goals and I think the way us followers are being considered as 'stakeholders' is an important distinction. A bot can fill out a form, does that make them a stakeholder?
The dev team's decision not to have an ICO or ask for donations or funds is a brave move. I truly hope it will pay off by creating a community of supporters that will turn Nevra into something that can make a positive impact on the crypto community and maybe even the world as a whole. I think even the failure of this project has the ability to bring about change, but I hope we can come together and make it a huge success!
I can't speak very much at the moment about the technical aspects of the whitepaper, because I am not very familiar with NEM. But I plan to do my own research and see what it is all about. I've only read good things so far.
Yes, team positioning is important because they require equal distribution through the community platform. I think this is very necessary. Your idea is good.
