Hi everyone! It looks like STEEL project overestimates importance of anonymity and privacy or bother too much. Of course, an opportunity to communicate without any obstacles will have demand, but if the developers wont create an interesting network or integrate other popular resources into their product, there will be problems in the future!
Youre right! There should be the demand for the product in the market, it doesnt make any sense to create too complex services or the ones that the clients dont need, anyway, they wont pay for them, but their development will take time and money. 90% of cryptocurrency ICOs fails in 2017 cause of this.
Therere no doubts that there will be demand for secure communication channels. If i were you, id take a look at Asian experience, for example, at Japan where almost 100% of people use networks and payments via social networks are very popular. STEEL creates a modern ecosystem which will bring all these things together and im sure that the users will like it. As for other networks, they can cooperate with SiSHUB and offer partnership.
