Thanks for your answer so far.
You have used a lot of terms that are unknown to me:
Xnode protocol

- The protocol that XCurrency nodes use to communicate. It's end-to-end encrypted and completely serverless.

Quote
XBridge

- The protocol that all Blocknet-enabled nodes will use to communicate, across different blockchains.

Quote
Telehash

- http://telehash.org/

Quote
DHT

- Distributed Hash Tables: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distributed_hash_table

Quote
mesh

Quote
interim wallet

- We have released regular PoS wallets for holders of Blocknet tokens to use.
- This is only for the interim period between the ITO and the launch of the Blocknet's technology.

If I would want to invest I would need two things:
1) A document that explains
a) what specific / consumer oriented end-product you want to achieve

The OP should do this adequately, but I can put it in a sentence if you like: the Blocknet makes the features of every altcoin integrated into it a service rendered to every participating coin. That said, it's not directly consumer oriented; it's an infrastructure. The apps/wallets that developers create will be consumer-oriented.

b) how you want to achieve it technically: Explained as detailed but at the same time as easily as possible (NO hiding behind fancy words)

You can start with this post: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=829576.msg9296247#msg9296247

2) A presentation of the whole team where all relevant team members are publically known.

Dan Metcalf's identity is public, and so is mine: http://xc-official.com/the-xc-team/
When the foundation and team is formalised, you can expect more people's identities to be made public (though not necessarily everyone's).

Do you have such documents yet? Have the marketing material / and marketing terms been prepared before the technology / concept has been prepared?

Yes, the marketing has been prepared before the technology. The terms of the ITO entail funding first, code later. Presumably anyone not happy with this proposal didn't buy Blocknet tokens.
