Yep, I did a post about Pirate Chain back when I first found it a few months ago, and then another one recently when I learned about various centralization and other concerns.
ZIL is a HUGE project doing what it sounds like etho is trying to do, they're also the only competitor for ICANN when it comes to TLDNS, at least as far as I know.
I stay away from Komodo and Komodo-related projects for the most part, being such a centralized chain, with such a scammy launch.
Ive heard people complain about komodos launch, but it didn't seem any different than most ico's to me. What was scammy about it? Problems they had with mining at the begining? Which honestly there I dont know if there are any tokens which im happy with the launch. Its what kept me away from steemit to begin with. Komodos platform does qork great, and has been doing things for years new investor backed projects are starting to do now. And we will never know if a large portion of arrr is held by few wallets, but that is what appeals to me about it. The development has been aggressive amd on point, and the developers are actually really accessible. They do a weekly meeting im which anyone can ask questions, and they respomd to my dms. They also proof read anything I wrote about arrr ot bpsaa. Judging from all of that its one of the more open projects ive been a part of. Arrr is best privacy tech out there, so in the techocratic world were seeing emerge daily, im probably going to end up using PirateChain regardless of how i feel about devs. Unfortualtely the ring tech of monero isn't as secure as we'd all hoped. Let me know if you have some resources on the Komodo launch if ya can. I have had trouble finding much of the legitimate critisims.
