This is a really good thing... So many projects sell an "idea" and raise a bunch of funds through an ICO but never deliver. This is what has been giving ICOs a bad name. Having a working blockchain and at least a prototype of what you're going to do is far more convincing to me that the ICO is a good investment than any fancy landing page and white paper could ever be. I wish more projects would work like this. Really helps lend credibility to the crypto space.
Exactly the smoke network has really try putting everything into. place even before the ico sales - organized and dedicated team - what else do you need?
