Somebody asked me to look into this project and I have few questions to developers/ founders.
1. It appears that the two founders of CREA,
David Proto and
Anna Ripolles, have founded and worked at Comando Suricato
http://comandosuricato.com/,
which lists six more blockchain projects (KeePy-I, Lescovex, Synod, Antykera, Sindicato Robot, and Entropy Factory) besides CREA.
None of them seems to be related to Blockchain in particular, except
Entropy Factory. Plus, Comando Suricato itself appears to be a design firm.
What CreativeChain claims aren't trivial tasks to achieve. It will require few passionate, skilled souls to completely dedicate themselves into the project.
With these many fragmentation and distraction, it's hard to expect solid progress for years to come.
Could you add how to complement the project's leadership and focus?
2. As a fork of Litecoin, it's not necessary to re-invent everything, but core developers should be skilled in handling C++ and Blockchain to add/ fix/ extend the core to build what CREA aims.
Most of pull requests in the project repositories, unfortunately, focus on cosmetic changes such as translation and icon with a noticeable exception of few chain parameter modification for ICO.
Plus, there are two developers who handled modifications, (
Lluis Santos and
Ignition (?)), and their names are not listed in the team page.
(Not to mention there has been zero pull request whatsoever for about a month after ICO.)
Care to add more detail of core developers in the team profile?
3. One of CREA's feature "
Authorship Registration to Blockchain" is a good idea. In fact, it's Factom
http://factom.org/ which pioneers the very idea with BTC, and it has grown dramatically.
As BTC price goes up, however, registration fee follows up too. So, picking up its own chain to reduce the registration fee is clever move.
What puzzles me is that neither
CreativeChain Core nor
Entropy Factory's fork doesn't appear to have enough development activities going on to make that happen. It's quiet almost as if the project is dead.
Could you layout how main chain development would progress with detailed milestones?
4. In the whitepaper, TFS (Tarius File System) with BitTorrent network is to be deployed, and it would act as a media distribution channel.
Having users on BitTorrent network with CreativeCore chain definitely solidifies CREA network with more full nodes, and it is another cool move.
As in the case of
Joystream, however, the mixture requires sufficient skillsets in handling BitTorrent network as well.
Despite the progress indicator showing
75% complete, none of the repository in CreativeChain contains anything related to BitTorrent.
Could you show some details of TFS such as demo-net, code, etc on this?
