Very flashy but overall bad web design. What should be on the frontpage as the first thing the user sees is hidden, three actions away:

Regarding the product. I don't see why developers need to develop using actual bitcoins so I don't buy that spiel. There's alternative testing blockchains for a reason.

It seems to me like they are simply trying to become one of the dominant mining pool players. I don't see how they increase mining pool decentralization. All other mining devices are not tied to one mining pool. Their's is.

There are millions of dollars invested in this project, I highly doubt that the entire goal is to have a massive mining pool.

The main idea is to buy and sell digital good and services, that's the big revolutionary bit of this, not some mining pool scam.
