Thank you very much for the detailed response.
The platform seems very promising. But one bottleneck that I'm seeing here is how you will get users on board?
Sure, you are making your blockchain light so more people can afford to have your app in their computers or phones, but you need long list of merchants to make your platform usable to them.
Otherwise, this is just another dormant app in their system.
We agree with you. Merchant adoption and payroll services are key to the integration of a currency, eliminating the need for an exchange.
We plan to use a series of proof of concepts, to demonstrate the benefits of Petra, utility tokens, and low transaction fees.
These free apps will help demonstrate many benefits of using Petra over fiat, while also providing an immediate benefit to those using the app.
By releasing proof of concepts, we hope to show off the advanced functionality and usability of Petrachor, and work with other app developers to help integrate the same payment system.
