Title: [PRE ANN] [ICO] Stock Photo project planning
Post by: codifiers on July 06, 2017, 11:35:55 PM
Hello!  I wanted to post some of the planning that my team has been doing regarding a new service for stock photography, video, music, fonts, and icons.  We are a small group of experienced web developers that have shipped many successful products and public facing sites.  It feels like there is still lots of work to be done, but I wanted to get some ideas out there to see if there was any feedback.  I love the idea of an ICO.  In the past, raising money and funding projects and businesses has always been a challenge.  Not to say that it will be "easy" with an ICO, but it does provide and interesting new mechanism for raising capital and getting customers directly involved with the business.

The final product offering will look like a typical stock photo site, such as iStockphoto or Shutterstock, but will be built on top of blockchain technology.  During the ICO, we will be selling Fotocoins in exchange for Ethereum.  Fotocoins will be the currency for licensing stock photos and other digital assets.  When a photographer or content creator has an asset that they want to add to the stock photo site, purchasing or licensing of the digital asset will be paid for in Fotocoins.

We have lots of outstanding tasks/research to do.  Any advise would be appreciated.
Other than during the ICO, we are not sure how the ongoing purchase of Fotocoins will take place.  Is there a process to be listed on an exchange, or is it that you just need to gain enough momentum to be listed?

Thanks for reading.

That's a really good idea! waiting for updates.

Just a tip, if you want quality holders and not FUDers, make a smart ICO. limit cap, no need to be greedy like so many others nowdays.
