That fact that you wrote " none of his points make much sense" , but somehow forget to mention even one of them kinda speaks for itself.
Many days has passed and its funny, how i said that i stand behind what i wrote and noone tried to prove me wrong also speaks for itself.
FUD as you called it is so easy to be destroyed,when it is not backed by anything.
Sadly everything i write is backed, thats why the only thing you can come up with is childish level or response.
But that kinda sums some of the sheeple sonm investors, that keep believing that somehow this project will turn into billions.
I have said :show me what is " fabricated lies"  .O yeah there are none, its all facts that is out there in the open if you dig enough.
"Most hard working devs and great roadmap" ! I have heard this somewhere....I remember ,in every project forum/telegram/slack....
 In the end it is all about what they promise to deliver and what they deliver right?
Im really sorry to somehow threw reality in your unicorn dream.....
Go check sonm deals monitor and sonm community bot on telegram. It tells you all you want to see.
Hashrate of 2700 mh/s .Lowest since the start of the livenet .
At this moment, total 53.17 USD/day are spent on the entire SONM platform.
1.5 year since ICO, with 6 months livenet/working product  Roll Eyes
Merry Christmas, hanukkah,ramadan or whatever you like.....


PS. For close to an year sonm team has shouted all around " We will provide similar services to the established cloud providers but TIMES CHEAPER"
Well if not all, most of the companies when someone tell them: you can cut your expenses by few hundred % will atleast try it right?
And what happened ? Ashmanov ,Shotty and Teleport ....#50ghostcompanies lol
Something doesnt really adds up with snm right ?  Roll Eyes They also stopped with the tweets like gtx1060 bringing 1$ a day, or the record number of 3242341 deals
that equals 50$  Roll Eyes Makes you wonder why?

You raise many valid points and it's good that you are throwing around some reality. SONM is far from perfect, like MiBambino pointed out they are lacking in the sales and marketing department. However when I compare SONM to most ICOs out there. They have shown to be a lot more competent than most. Delivering before a deadline is just an example of why I still give SONM a benefit of a doubt. So far they maybe have not been perfect, but in my opinion it could be a lot worse.
The fact that none of SONM's official partnerships are worth talking about cannot be contributed to only bad marketing and sales. We are still in a period where the average joes have heard about crypto but are extremely skeptical. So even if you go to a company with an offer that your service is many times cheaper. The only thing the no coiners brain will hear is crypto = bubble, crypto = scam etc.
The point I am trying to make is that you are correct we are 1.5 years after ICO and it is not as booming as we hoped. But do take into account that crypto as whole does not have a mature image towards the people outside of crypto. It does not matter how much money SONM puts into marketing and sales, one company cannot change the whole stigma around crypto. It has to be a collective effort.
its the community members like you who point out the team at right direction and raised good question that project team should CONTEMPLATE on them.
right now lack on sales and marketing is happening product is ready and good to use. but very less demand and this thing is impact on its price value negative. also market condition is not good people are selling more for getting short profit making.
but if sonm team get ride on marketing and promotions then sonm price could go up. sonm is already listed on big exchanges so in no time sonm could worth a lot more then its current price value

Their target clients are far from no-brainers when it comes to crypto, the problem is that unless there's more demand for the computing power, there won't be any contributers who are willing to put in the effort to sell their resources. On the flipside, unless there's contributers who offer tons of resources to meet the demands of the clients, those clients will stick to AWS and Azure because they will be able to deliver, no matter what. From what i can see, Sonm doesnt focus enough on bringing suppliers and buyers together on the platform, like intermediates. They just build a platform and expect people to show up in a sense. They'll tell you that they're actively doing marketing but the results speak for themselves. 'build it and they will come' doesnt work anymore.
crypto community mostly use their hardware resources to mine crypto but not to contribute their computing power to any company and right now i think contribution hardware to sonm get more reward then mining
sonm could offer more reward for the hardware contributors or sonm could start a social media camp or advertising or marketing for create more demand.
yes sonm is totally focusing on the platform performance and trying to makes it easy to use for end users
not only SONM that looks bad in Q3 2018, on average all ICO tokens and coins experience long bearish, we just wait for Bullish to come
