One hint from personal experience is you will always need at least one real-life interaction before being taken seriously. Such interaction can be a tech conference, a common acquaintance, a direct interview at their HQ, etc. etc. The more

Black and gray uses only? Create a temporary environment, allow two users enter by blockchain, let them exchange their sh*t inside and destroy the environment after that. Financials from the beginning to the end then, insiders job.
