I might be biased (team member here, I wrote the inflation article a few posts back), but this project can only grow.  This is just the first stages of what this project will become, building out the blockchain infrastructure and network has to be done first.

Wait until the features like IDS and others come. @The critics, we welcome constructive criticism but realise this is just the start still for what will come.

Check out the current nodes and amount of SIN users have burnt setting up their nodes http://explorer.sinovate.io/.  Plenty of people over the globe who have confidence to lock up a node for a long time.

Also, please come join our discord and discuss with the team and community and you will see how active we are and you won't worry
