When the project had traction and was compared to a competition to golem. Where it could gain a lot from advertising and make it mainstream. The lead devlopper had attitude and rejected marketing. Now its in the dead alley and nobody cares except a few ogs

this is very harsh words. "The lead devlopper had attitude and rejected marketing"
Yep, maybe marketing is not a priority right now, but don't you see how much work do the team to improve their project?

Well, i would love to see someone market it to the academic community as an alternative to the rather egalitarian BOINC project! What the crypto community typically understands as  „marketing“, however, is some excessive shilling on twitter to pump the price and lure people into buying by giving them the tingles and the idea of getting rich quick! That, i never wanted to be part of and i think that this kind of marketing is an outright scam! Look at all these projects out there: their marketing is rarely outlining the unique benefits their technology offers! It‘s all about signals, profits, and „FOMO“!
