You seem to be deliberately missing the point. I'd cheerfully give you my contact info and be an early adopter, but all you have shown is the contents page of a whitepaper.

These are just buzzwords. In the time you've taken replying in this thread, you could have written three or four sentences summarizing what your product will do differently. If you care so much about my privacy and security, what exactly are you offering in return for my contact information?

It's like if I offer you Luxury, precision, style, value. NewThing is the product for high achievers who demand the best. Apply now for exclusive preview and priority access. I too can conjure up a list of desirable qualities and leverage FOMO. Make me a value proposition instead of trying to leverage my emotions alone.
