In general the four things=are: 1) the devil is in the details, meaning that even if in theory i='s all solid the implementation might have bugs. There's no definitive tech=ical solution for that though 2) anything that is "custom" (eg: they=have a custom wifi protocol) is a red flag because it means that it hasn't b=en properly vetted and might be broken/buggy 3) there aren't enough d=tails online to tell but it seems to me that to speed up the blockchain ver=fication they partially centralize the network by using their own "supernod=s" (essentially the wallets talk to the supernodes vs the actual blockchain=. The security of those servers seems key to me and they gloss over it onli=e 4) the mesh network implementation is completely up in the air (judging f=om what's public) and it could go horribly wrong. So that needs further ver=fication Also (5), in general the disadvantage of distributed /open t=ings is that it is a lot easier to steal money vs a closed network (like sw=ft).
