Much like last week's entry, this was an excellent post. I'm excited to see the usecases being proposed, and the fact that there are more of them. Were I a more technically minded person, I would try and think of one myself to get in on the fun (and ask one of my fellows in the Blog category to moderate next posts in the series, of course). 

Also similarly to last week's entry, I had some issues when it comes to style and grammar. Let's cite a couple of examples.

* "The Use-a-Thon has now been running for 2 full weeks, and therefore it’s time for the second weekly update in which we cover some general topics as well as take a look at the past week’s blog posts of the participants." My mantra, of late, has been to repeat this: This sentence is too long. It should have been broken up. Also, it should be "by the participants," not "of." So, let's do a quick edit:

"The Use-a-Thon has now been running for 2 full weeks, and it’s time for the second weekly update. In this update, we cover some general topics, as well as take a look at the past week’s blog posts by the participants." 

* "the number of features have grown steadily." While "features" are plural, the thing that has grown is "the number," which is singular. Therefore, this should have been: "the number of features ***has*** grown steadily." 

* "So while the Byteball platform is of course also a cryptocurrency" It's not, though. "Byteball" is a cryptocurrency. "The Byteball platform" is a platform. 

Issues such as these are, on the whole, minor. Their impact on the post's overall quality and readability isn't huge. But I would still urge greater attention to such issues.

Once again, thanks for your great feedback and evaluation. This week, the post had to be rushed a bit in an attempt to get translated versions in place for the launch. Yet, we need to allow all participants to post as late during the week as possible. So we operate on a rather small time window for these updates.

But seeing the amazing progress reports and new ideas entering the contest makes all the stress and hassle worth every minute of it. And while I would definitely miss your thorough feedback on the following weeks' articles, you would definitely be just as welcome to join as a participant in the contest!

Should you choose so, the best of luck :)
