I don't think so, as far as I can tell this coin has the best/solid dev team in the business. Decred might be the true bitcoin alternative we've all been waiting for.
I hope you are correct. I just think this dev team should have tried to apply the KISS principle to some of this. The fact that they have failed to apply KISS gives me doubts for wide adoption. Some of this stuff is rather convoluted.
This is not an unfair point. It's important to remember that new technology is often complex. You can look back at any technology in its infancy, and see the trouble with complexity. The irony of the pursuit of simplicity is that it's not simple to do. The active solution to making simple a complex technology is to make it a pursuit.
This is reflected in the RFP process. It begins with native GUIs (
RFP-1), improving the light web GUI (
RFP-2), and providing a simple overview of the network and its concepts (
RFP-3). And then there's the stake pool, which makes the process simpler by circumventing the need to keep a wallet online 24/7, or even the requirement of a reliable Internet connection. Deconstructing these processes, it becomes apparent that simplicity is in fact a desire of the project's output - however, as said, it's not as simple as keeping it simple.
