A side note on this article is that it only documents the mostly negative aspects of Kulupu. You can find postive aspects of Kulupu in other technical documentations.
- Kulupu is a cryptocurrency without a roadmap. Developers behind Kulupu explicitly do not release any roadmap to avoid promising things it may not manage to implement.
- Kulupu has a high yearly inflation rate right now. As a blockchain without any pre-mine, high inflation in the first several years are unavoidable. Currently, we're in the second year since the Kulupu launch, and the yearly inflation is 50%.
- Kulupu does not have full-time developers. Kulupu started as a side project of Wei Tang. Since launch, it has been maintained and developed by volunteers. With no budget or investment for the core team, no developers work on Kulupu full-time.
