And the pictures display an amateurish 3D printed enclosure. If the progress is manifested in very poorly designed 3D printed enclosure and the DEV feels that such picture must be published, in the meantime he has no idea why the transaction time is significant in real time hardware control, then I am worried about the direction of this project.

Seeing the quality the 3D printed enclosure this coin reminds me some high school project on Kickstarter at the early days when the quality control was not in place.
