Tendermint is easy to integrate and use with Bitcoin/Blockchain applications. The project's core team has been around the block multiple times helping others with their Tendermint implementations & development. They are active in the community, often attending local meetups that can have talks and presentations from the team members. Not much - have worked with them over 1 year as well as a few months as a member on several Tendermint projects with other organizations. We've been able to get up and running quickly with many proof-of-concept test nodes all doing different things in a distributed manner, and now we're getting ready to launch our first production node. Working side by side with Tendermint really helps us get things done in record time when compared to how long it would take us elsewhere without them - so we couldn't not use them! The best thing about this project is that it has an open source code which makes it easy to understand and implement. There are many features which are not available in other platforms. So, I would recommend to try tendermint as it is very good and reliable. It helps in solving the scalability issues of blockchains and also helps in making them more secure. We can easily integrate it with any existing node or server. I am using it in my university projects to solve the consensus related problems.
