I hope Hondo & devs don't get distracted by the Blocknet.
Keep your eyes on the prize! The anon send.
And what is the benefit of joining the Blocknet? I dont care for most of the coins already on the blocknet. For me they make us look shit (or risk making us look shit) by association. I dont wanna be associated (or risk association) with any shit/scam coins! How do you respond (Emilio or anybody else) to this?
What does XST gain by joining it?
Being a part of the BlockNet isn't going to distract or take away from a coin's individual development. In fact, only coins with unique development will be allowed into the network. It'll be an environment in which coins will be cooperating and sharing technology. All coins will retain their individuality, but it will allow the owners of any particular coin within the network to use the features of all of the other coins within the network. This is a new scenario in crypto...(multiple coins working together for a common cause)...I think that this scares investors, because they think that the coins will no longer have a strong individual value. The value of the coins within the BlockNet may rise a lot though, due to the fact that those coins within the BlockNet can offer a wide range of features that other coins outside of the BlockNet can't. We'll have to wait and see how this will play out, but this type of thing may end up being the norm for crypto in the future. No longer will you have individual competing coins but competing networks that host multiple coins.
