I feel like these services have a chicken egg dilemma.

For example, I'm highly interested in it, but don't sign up because I don't know if they'll be around in a year or 10. So I'd like to see one long established before going all in, but it's hard for one to get long established without early users.

I totally get that dilemma! It’s hard to commit without knowing if a service will be around long-term. Cipherwill is dedicated to the long haul and is also hosted on decentralized blockchain storage for added security and longevity.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm definitely interested - I'll certainly be keeping an eye on it. It'd probably be nice to try to assuage uncertainty in the FAQ somewhere if not already as a long term vision/plans comes into focus.

We’ll definitely consider adding more to the FAQ to address any uncertainties as our long-term vision develops. Thanks for feedback.

Which blockchain? In what sense is it decentralized from perspective of CipherWill users?
