- customs, you need the receiver name to pick and pay the parcels, nowhere in the universe would a stranger be allowed to do this
The philosophy of Bitpost is to remain outside traditional systems rather than integrate into them. Just as no decentralized blockchain enforces KYC/AML procedures or reports tax data to authorities - despite all traditional financial services being required to do so - Bitpost similarly does not recognize the concept of borders or customs. The only thing that matters is whether someone can offer to transport a parcel between specified geographic coordinates, and if so, at what price. How they manage to do so if the route crosses a border with customs regulations is their individual matter. If no one is interested in providing such a service, connections between certain areas are simply unavailable, resulting in an error when attempting to ship a parcel. Until someone comes up with a viable way to do it and starts earning from it.
- in all the western world carrying goods for other people demands recipes and authorization, have fun getting those while anonymous
That may be true for heavy truck drivers doing their job professionally, but I don’t think that anywhere, transporting a few dozen parcels by a private individual in a personal passenger car or van, which isn’t part of their profession, requires any special permits or authorization. If I'm wrong, could you provide some examples where this could be an issue?
- nobody is going to insure this thing, never ever!!!!!
True, just like all other things related to crypto. But the lack of traditional insurance doesn't stop decentralized solutions from working - there are different ways of providing trust and security. Smart contracts can do everything that insurance does.
- logistics is about efficiency, sending parcels one by one with different carriers and so on will make the whole thing expensive as hell, things work because a guy delivers a hundred packets a day, who do you think will deliver a package out of his way for 50 cents?
Nobody has to deliver a single package out of their way. The same principles of efficiency apply here, scaled down in both profits and costs. A driver can focus on a specific district or city, consolidating several parcels before setting out on their route. While they may not have a hundred packages to deliver, the distances are also shorter, and smaller vehicles with lower fuel consumption make the process more cost-effective.
Not to mention that traditional couriers drive exclusively to transport parcels, whereas Bitpost drivers can integrate these transports with trips they would be taking anyway. For example, if you're going on vacation, you could fill your trunk with parcels from a hub in your city and deliver them to a hub 300 km away. You might only recover half the cost of your fuel, but that's still a win because you’d be taking that trip regardless of Bitpost.
And let’s not forget there are customers ready to pay significantly more for ultra-fast delivery, for example, knowing that an order placed from an online store on Friday afternoon can arrive the same day within three hours instead of waiting until after the weekend.
- you have no idea what a sorting hub is and how big and how many people work in it, your presale is what 1.2 million? Our latest hub was worth 60 million just in construction. with 1.2 million you won't even buy the land for one
Rather it seems like you don't fully understand what Bitpost is about.
The 1.2 million presale will be more than enough for robust marketing, exchange listings, and hiring additional coders and graphic designers. But we have absolutely no need to buy any land or build anything.
The essence of this project lies in the sharing economy and the utilization of existing resources. For example, you could have a small shop in the city center. You register it as a Bitpost hub and allow couriers to drop off parcels they have in their vehicle right there. While there are no customers, you sort the parcels, and then they are picked up by other couriers who continue their journey to the next hubs, which could also be anything: other shops, hotels, gas stations, or even private homes.
You open such a hub with no investment and no operational costs, and in just a minute. If something doesn’t suit you, you close it just as quickly. There could be 10 hubs in a small town and 20 in the neighboring one. Their combined throughput could match that of a logistics center worth 60 million, generating massive costs and bureaucratic hurdles.
How the hell would you preserve privacy when you just said it in your whitepaper that everyone can see the orders, so everyone will know there is a package coming this guy to that guy? 
It's simpler than you think!
For first/last mile delivery: you send a shipment announcement with the approximate pickup location only to couriers in your area. Once a courier accepts the assignment, you share the exact pickup location exclusively with them. The courier doesn’t need to know the recipient of the package; their task is simply to drop it off at the nearest hub.
For routes between hubs: Hub X publishes an announcement saying it has 15 parcels to be transported to Hub Y. It doesn’t reveal who the parcels are from or to, or any other details.
