Thank you for your answer!
I already had googled for English and Spanish sources, but had found almost nothing outside of your web pages (.net and .com) and the KickICO sites. That's why I wanted you to provide me some links. I'll now go through them and hope I can understand something
Your project is very ambitious, and that's why I expected more coverage, but let's see.
For now, you addressed my doubts well so I will continue to investigate. I like that you're taking a more "mainstream" approach than other, more
nerdy projects in the OSHW sphere.
I assume you know that ICOs in cryptocurrencies have to be met with lots of skepticism, also in this forum. This is not your fault, but a general problem of ICOs - they attract scammers magically because it's so easy to set them up and then run away (For example, I was part of the NXT community - one of the first ICO platforms in 2014 - and lots of people lost their money there) ...
For now we also expected more media coverage
But maybe we have to understand, that completely open sourcing technologies - that are the main territory of hundred years old corporations still operating in the market economy - is not an easy ride.
Talking with people about this - even if they are very happy to see Envienta as a game changer - it seems an impossible mission. The difference between them and us, that they are talking about it as a 200 years process at least, with linear thinking, we see this revolution is approaching with an exponential rate of speed. Just take a look on the trends, innovation is more likely come from startups and individuals these days. There is a shift also in organizational models.
I was interviewed 2 days ago here, and also talked about this.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sb9db-8NeXAWe've been working hard in the past two years on our project, that seems a very slow process for the outsiders who usually expected few products and services at least by this time. But considering the fact, that our aim is to take huge part of the social, economical and technological paradigm shift, we soon realized that we have to create frameworks and platforms instead of products and services - these would be the outcomes and not the goals.
If we are talking about platforms and frameworks, we have to concern not only R&D, software and hardware development, but the network of people, the specific and scalable organizational model that enables more and more people to collaborate by free will. So the past two years is about building our team from this network of experts. The organizational model is decentralized, evolutionary teal, which is a purpose driven organization. We put great emphasis on flat hierarchies and self-management technics at the same time, with greater responsibilities on a personal level. We are giving a human centered environemnt for our members and partners, letting them experience their wholeness through their activities. That is equivalent to the open source, holistic approach we working with from the beginning. We think that it is the source of our success, the root of everything we could achieve."
Few words about the ICO's as we see. I think we have to listen Vitalik Buterin's attention, that 90% of ICO's will fail, because there is nothing behind a given project, only the coins, that created through the ICO. Without the coin 90% of the projects never had to be exist.
If you put real value behind the coin - physical infrastructure, means and resources, products and services and a thriving community itself - there is a good chance to keep the coin's value high enough to achieve a solid growth in the long term. Although we at ENVIENTA are not ICO experts, we are seeing the ICO as a tool and not the goal.
Buzzword alert!
In addition we see blockchain technologies as the foundation of the value change in a healthy and secure IoT environment that will lead us to the resource based economy.
