Bitcoin Forum

Dear all, it came as a surprise but looks like we broke some bitcointalk rule according to mprep who moderates this forum section.

Bounty thread was deleted:

Official thread was deleted:

https://i.imgur.com/oY4wAau.png

It is not our intention to break any rule. We based our bounty on other bounties currently available on the forum and there are plenty similar to ours so hence why we were a bit surprised.

So we will reach out to mprep and ask what we did wrong and correct it. We cannot guarantee we will get a reply so for the moment we will not post a bounty thread on this forum.
We will revise our bounty and post on our website instead. If the new bounty looks ok to mprep then we may ask if we can repost on here too.

Apologies for any inconvenience caused. We are working to get this solved as soon as possible.

UPDATE

We spoke with mprep, realized where the problem was and corrected it.

Feel free to join our Bounty Campaign here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2098497.0 while respecting Bitcointalk forum rules.

Good Job! :)

Your previous thread was deleted because you mixed bounty/incentives in the announcement section. You have to create an independent thread for these purposes in marketplace-under bounties section. That is specified for for running bounties campaigns freely.

Burstiq has built a platform to enable the health singularity.
A platform where health data can be securely brought together from thousands of different sources and used to make healthcare smarter and more personalized.

Interesting project, checked out the whitepaper and it looks really intriguing.

Glad to see the platform is almost ready to go?

Are we going to be able to see a beta or a demo?

And when can people register for BurstIQ?



The platform is already operational - we have a number of partners who are already using the platform for analytics, personalized medicine services and other applications (check out our latest blog here, which has been written by one of our partners).

We are working on a couple of demo videos to show the functionality, so stay tuned for those.

As for when people can register, we’re planning to launch the consumer marketplace in early-mid 2018, but people who buy tokens during the crowdsale will be eligible for early registration with the consumer marketplace.

What are you?


We have built a blockchain-based platform that allows health data to be securely accessed and shared. It has similarities to both personal health records (PHRs) and health information exchanges (HIEs), but we felt that it was really important that people should be able to gain value from their data - not just look at it. So the BurstIQ ecosystem (where BiQ tokens will be the currency) will allow both businesses and consumers to access products and services, participate in research, publish research, join peer networks, collaborate, partner, find and market to customers, buy products, recruit research participants, etc. All of these interactions are powered by BiQ tokens. Our white paper and Crowdsale memo have a lot of helpful information about the platform, the ecosystem, and how BiQ tokens are used: http://www.burstiq.com/biq-token-crowdsale/ (http://www.burstiq.com/biq-token-crowdsale/)

when plan open ico selling dev ?

Would it be possible to market natural / homeopathic treatments and/or medicines through the blockchain?



Yes, absolutely! The BiQ Ecosystem supports any type of product or service. Basically, consumers would set up their consent contracts to allow their data to be shared with companies who provide natural and homeopathic treatments (or companies that are developing those treatments and seeking study participants). Then your company would be able to find and interact directly with those people. Your company would also be able to interact directly with other businesses - for example, you could partner with wellness plan administrators or self-insured employers to offer homeopathic treatments as part of an employee wellness plan.

Just a couple of examples - there are lots of others.

i think this project is really a great project. but, how to combine the power of blockchain, big data and intelligent?

Health projects again, but I like and we know that such a project is in great demand. Your team and roadmap are very clear and interesting.
But I want to ask, what is the price of ico per token?

At BurstIQ, we believe that people should be able to access and use their health data, to control how their data is used, and have confidence that their data is safe.

See how we are securing your health data here (http://www.burstiq.com/health-data-security-on-the-burstiq-platform/)!

I am going to read whitepaper asap, seems like a good project, with prospectives

Another new project with a health theme, possibly going to succeed, and reaching for hard cap :)
by the way this ico using platform ethereum erc 20 ?  ???
thank you

Would health care providers, clinics need to buy your tokens to request for users' data?
If yes, how do you plan to sell these tokens to the group that does not understand cryptocurrency and afraid of the price fluctuations of your tokens?



All transactions on the platform are performed using BiQs, but we are making the process seamless and easy for users. You definitely won't need to be knowledgeable about cryptocurrency.

This project is similar to bowhead health  project?, I not  read Ann or whitwpaper but title says it is same as bowhead health project.

They are actually quite different. Bowhead has created a medical device that performs at-home biometric testing and uses the test results to create personalized vitamin and supplement packages. Their data capture and sharing capabilities are focused specifically on IoT device data, not Big Data applications.

The BurstIQ platform combines blockchain with Big Data capabilities, machine learning, and advanced security protocols to enable complex, highly sensitive data (of any type) to be managed, permissioned and shared without compromising security and privacy. We have built an ecosystem on top of this platform that: 1) allows people to access their own data, control who else can use it or see it, use it to access products and services that interest them, participate in research, etc. and 2) allows companies to find and engage with customers who would benefit from their products, build research / clinical trial cohorts, partner with other companies, build deep learning and AI tools, create personalized products and services, and lots of other possibilities.

Bowhead Health would actually be a great partner to join the BurstIQ ecosystem. The ecosystem would give them access to lots of other types of data that could enhance their personalization algorithms, it would give them end-to-end data management of the biometric, supplement and compliance data, and it would significantly expand the options for how their users could choose to gain value from their biometric data.

Yes, the BIQ token is an ERC20 compliant token.

The Secure Data Grid provides a blockchain protocol with a BigData engine.  Allows direct, on-chain data analytics of the asset and the block envelope without combining the blockchain and a separate database.  The Secure Data Grid interacts with the Ethereum blockchain for all cryptocurrency transactions via the BiQ (ERC20) token. Please refer to our whitepaper, which goes into more detail http://www.burstiq.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/BurstIQ-whitepaper_19Jul2017reduced.pdf (http://www.burstiq.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/BurstIQ-whitepaper_19Jul2017reduced.pdf)

I believe the whitepaper link may have been broken but has been resolved.

Thanks for the comments.  Please review the whitepaper and memorandum on the very first post for this information.

I have made a nice video in Chinese about this project. This is good that health aspects are now covered by this wonderful technology and so healthcare must become much more efficient and more lives saved. Here is link to my VIDEO. I do hope you like it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taKAPUXkePE

Super interesting idea! I think there can be a ton of potential for people to consolidate their health info and benefit financially from being able to provide access to researchers or practitioners who can use it for advancement. Great idea!

Thanks, coin@coin. We think it’s pretty awesome, too. The consumer-facing product will definitely be available to people outside the US. However, there may be rules or regulations in other countries that would impact certain functionality. For example, some countries have specific rules about how telemedicine can be used, and that would impact how users engage with telemedicine services on the platform. We are working with legal counsel to make sure the consumer product complies with all rules and regulations - both in the US and in other countries.

I really love the concept of this project, the project with the health idea always attracts the attention of many people, and yes, another thing that really interest me, this project distribute 70% for crowdsale, and bonus up to 4 weeks, this is amazing, hopefully run well And good luck

This thing is rore complicated when we'are movering a log of it and all the bounties availabe.
Thank you.
 

Thanks everyone for the great comments.  Please let us know if we can answer any other questions.

"Bundling employer health benefits on the BurstIQ platform allows value-multiplier services to be integrated together seamlessly"

Read the full article here (https://goo.gl/mTxaYt)!

http://www.burstiq.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/08/Blog5_graphic.jpg (https://goo.gl/mTxaYt)

In Russia recently have been adopted a law regulating telemedicine. So it is now allowed in our country. Are you going to provide services in Russia? How do you see your steps for entering the market as we have several players here

We received this question offline and I thought it would be worth addressing here:

"There are a number of players in the healthcare industry that have have a vested interest in maintaining data silos. These players have resisted efforts to increase openness and access to health data. How does BurstIQ see this issue and how do you plan to overcome it?"

There are definitely a number of players in the health industry (notably, hospital systems, insurers and EMR providers) that have a vested interest in keeping their data siloed. This is especially true for those with significant market share. We believe that these large players will lag the rest of the industry when it comes to data openness. Rather than leading the transformation, they will be pulled into it by two primary forces. First, market demand for data access and control (notably, from consumers but also from providers, researchers, biopharma and digital health companies) will reach a critical threshold that will be tough for these large players to resist. Second, smaller players in the industry, who are more willing to innovate to differentiate themselves, will adopt earlier, prove the value of the platform and make adoption less risky for larger players.

That being said, BurstIQ actually has solid partnerships with multiple large health systems (and soon, one large insurer). These partners see that this is where the industry is going and are strategically aligned with our vision. The challenge is more on implementation than strategic alignment. Insurers and health systems have layers of internal process set up to prevent data breaches, and this can slow down integrations significantly. When we launch the consumer interface, we will also publish a SDK that will simplify these large integrations.

Yes, we expect that the consumer product will be available in Russia. But just to be clear, the platform enables an ecosystem and marketplace where companies can offer products and services to consumers and other companies. We are not expecting to be a telemedicine provider ourselves. Instead, our goal is to enable many different telemedicine companies to use the platform to connect with consumers, insurers, health systems, employers, wellness plan providers and other players so that they can offer products and services directly to them.

finally a health care ICO with a real team

I commented earlier on how this can be a great idea but I was thinking more about this project and realized how beneficial it is to have a practitioner to patient approach when it comes to identifying things like family history of a certain disease or other health concerns that could go unrealized by a potential patient. This can make pharma companies' marketing efforts both more targeted and more helpful, resulting in better care and health for a patient.

Great idea with such an open ecosystem and consolidating different areas

We signed and have already started integration of two large hospitals to run the BurstIQ platform in the last two weeks.  One of which is one of the largest hospital providers in the Western US.  Hope to be able to release more information soon.

Copied an idea from other project? very origin! And dont have any doctor in team in medical project? Its business or hype?

Thank you for your comment, based on your signature I'm assuming you are talking about Bowhead.  Please read the below response as we are quite different then Bowhead.  Also please download and review our whitepaper as we do have a doctor on our team as well as a Vice President of a enterprise healthcare company.  Finally, we have two large major university hospitals currently using our platform as well as other healthcare providers and just started to implement two new major hospitals to start using our platform.

Please let us know if you have any other specific questions.

No! you know, whom about Im talking!
Im talking about patientory project! Its 100% copied!

Again thank you for your comment and we congratulate Patientory on a successful token launch and wish them nothing but the best of luck in the their project moving forward.  We do not see Patientory as a competitor as they are a PHR and BurstIQ is not.

Patientory is essentially a personal health record (PHR), which allows you to aggregate and share your data with providers. What Patientory and other PHRs don’t do is allow users to collaborate, partner and network through an ecosystem. Some examples: With BurstIQ, you can discover new products and services that use your data (with your permission) to provide you with personalized products and services. You can choose to share your data with researchers working on diseases or other areas that are of particular interest to you. There are a million different things you could choose to do with your data, but all of them are under your complete control. As the ecosystem grows, so will the possibilities of how you could put your data to work for you. This is also insanely helpful for companies who need data to support their products or reach customers, but typically can't get it at all (or have to go through 9 months of integration - with each partner). With BurstIQ, they can access data directly and immediately from people who want to share it with them.

We think this has a much larger opportunity because we are supporting both consumers who want to control their own data and businesses who want to access data, customers, etc. The platform is also designed to intake any data type, so while we're starting with healthcare, we could eventually go into other areas where data access and ownership is important: education, energy, water, etc.

Thanks, bitcoinjames6. We completely agree about the benefits to both patient care and pharmaceutical R&D and marketing. We believe that data access and integration can enhance patient care and innovation in a myriad of ways - many of which we have yet to conceive of. The platform's machine learning capability allows providers, researchers, and digital health companies to find hidden correlations between seemingly unrelated things - and then use those connections to provide better care, new treatments and smarter products.

When I think about all the ways it could be used, it kind of makes my head explode.

hm.. ok, thank you. Than ill learn your project in detail more  ???

Rivalry always benefits the progress of all rivals and contributes to more efficient development. Good luck to both projects in their realization!

When you planning release your platform?

I tried my best to find the starting date for ICO but didn't succeed in my mission. All I can see is on 24th mentioning that currently in private presale. It means there is no set in stone date yet for the open presale or main ICO so far. I will be waiting and watching at the same time.

The beginning of crowdsale planned in date between 12 to 17 september.

When you planning release your platform? When you planning launch platform?

The platform is already running with several customers including 2 large university hospitals and 2 more large hospitals in implementation phase.  We also have a few smaller to medium size health care providers using the platform.  This is more of a business to business platform currently.

But to answer your question, when do we plan to launch the platform for more of the consumer user, we are estimating in the 6 month post token close with a plus or minus depending on money raised.

We are looking for public crowdsale the week of Sept 18th.  We are currently accepting private pre sales at this time, which are going very well.  We plan to have official press release soon on the actual date.

How much you want to raise in Pre-Sale? And how much raised already?

In which university hospitals you working right now? Can you tell me pls?

We are currently working private pre-sales with multiple people/business/etc, but are not releasing any numbers at this time.  If you are interested please email us at info@burstiq.com.

We plan to have a pubic pre-sale with discounted pricing, but requiring minimum purchase.  This will be a day or two before the public open crowdsale the week of Sept 18th.  Exact details on this are not final, but we will release this information as we get closer to the actual sale date. 

The 2 current university hospitals are

Really like the project, having a health care is the need of everyone.
With this coins, everyone that have this will be able to get any medical attention easier.

We agree.  Thank you for your comment.

1) You planning public pre-sale, but all information in secret? Why?

2) Why any public info for pre-sale and raised funds? Min purchase, etc?

3) Your bounty dont updated, checked etc. You dont need and want bounty?

4) Where we can see platform? Or its only for private usage?

Thank you

But why you need tokens, if you have platform and working with hospitals already?

Health projects? similar to the one-on-one project that started it first, but whatever they planned they had in common with the blockchain and ethereum network.

that's a great project sir. i wanna support it because it is a smart and unique project. marketplace for health data and services, nice.

1) You planning public pre-sale, but all information in secret? Why?

Are current private presales right now yes is private.  We aren't doing anything different then any of the other ICO.  The public pre sales will not be private.  We are finalizing all information about it and will release the information in the next week or so.  We plan to be very open on the public pre sales and public crowdsale.

2) Why any public info for pre-sale and raised funds? Min purchase, etc?

Again we are finalizing all information. 

3) Your bounty dont updated, checked etc. You dont need and want bounty?

We have a bounty agent and I will check with him.  I believe the rows are just hidden.

4) Where we can see platform? Or its only for private usage?

The current platform is working as business to business platform and yes is private use.  We cannot open it up to the public for all the HIPAA rules.  We are planning on creating some video's showing a demo of the platform using demo data.

We love our hospital customers and they are a valuable part of our ecosystem and will participate in the BiQ economy.  Tokens provide the foundation to create new service offerings for individuals and are necessary to achieve a true person centric health model.  They will help us increase health access to everyone, including underserved areas.  Our recent blog on creating employer benefit marketplaces is just one example of what we can with the platform and BiQs. 

Quite interesting and usefull project. Joined to signature bounty. Hope its actual? (because spreadsheets not checked)  ???

We have a bounty agent and I working with him on why the spreadsheets are not showing updated results.

brian.jackson

But how much you want to raise in "private sale" and how much tokens want to sell?  ::)

May be you ll change such lazy agent?  ;D

Your project will be based on BURST coin? Or you just have similar names. Now many similar names, this is very confusing
 

Is this project still ongoing? ???

I can read that it's on private sale
also I cannot find a translation spreadsheet to find the translated languages of the announcement

Our company name is BurstIQ and we are selling BIQ Tokens/Coins.  We have no affiliation with the BURST Token/Coin.

Our overall goal is to provide tokens to as many people as possible.  We have do not want to sell all the tokens to just a few users.  We would like to find a happy medium of selling as many tokens as possible to as many users as possible.

Yes, we are definitely still ongoing. You are correct; it is currently in private presale. If you are looking to make a larger purchase, just email us at info@burstiq.com and we'll provide you with all the details. We will also be issuing a press release this week with dates for the public sale, and we will post that information on this thread.

Regarding the translation spreadsheet, here is the link to the spreadsheet:

You think people so stupid? Take part in uknown hidden sale and working for free in bounty?   ;D

Not exactly sure what you are asking.

We are currently accepting pre sales with larger organizations just like every other ICO on the market.  If you are interested please contact us at info@burstiq.com and we can discuss.  These sales are typically in larger quantity then a normal customer.   So not exactly sure what you mean by hidden.  We will be announcing our public sales dates and info this week.

As for the bounty, again I'm not sure what you are saying as for free.  We are running a bounty program just like everyone else with stakes that will be paid in tokens at the end of the sale.  We will be giving up to 7 Million tokens away for the bounty program.  Please check the tables with the stake updates each week.  Yes our bounty agent is behind on updating the spreadsheets but we are working with him to get this corrected.

Please let us know if you have any other questions as we want to be as open as possible.

Jonathan Seaton, SVP at Illumina, just joined our advisory board.  Illumina is the worldwide leader in genomics research.  Look forward to working with him to execute our strategy to make precision medicine tests available for everyone on the planet. 

Good afternoon everyone!

Just so you are all informed on this thread as well; Twitter updates will be weekly due to the high volume of volunteers we are having.

Thank you all for being patient and please be on the look out to see where you all stand every Monday morning!

What about signatures?  ::)

They ignore people  ;D

A subscription company is here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2098497.0
the project itself can say very sensible, useful, and combined with the demands presented by contemporary reality. Only one small remark-not too small range of hospitals involved in your project?

I asked about checking our signature spreadsheets.
When you ll check mr Brian jackson?

I believe he is doing all the spreadsheets updates on Monday.  I will make sure he is updating them.

Thanks

Good morning everyone!

To help streamline this process better for everyone, every Monday morning you will be required to update your tweets / retweets into this google form (https://goo.gl/forms/QZiBXRZ8zgMvObym1).

We have been trying to develop a script that will automate collecting this data from you all, but its development is taking to long and we know you all want to know whats going on.

Here is how it is going to work.

On Monday mornings we are going to send a message through all of our channels saying please update your tweets / retweets using the google forms.
When you get into the form you will see that it request that you insert all of your twitter username, profile link, row number in the twitter bounty excel sheet, and links to all of your retweets and tweets for that specific week. For the last part you will need to separate each link with a comma so we can count them efficiently. After you've submitted the form, we will count how many tweets / retweets that you have done for the week and will add it to your current total in the bounty excel sheet (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dwZyKtgdRU-wEIhdjfFLdjp-jEax5PRo6RQ6re0ytPY/edit?usp=sharing).

For this week only we ask that you put all of your tweets and retweet links into the form and next Monday we will begin updating weekly!

Thank you all for your patience and we look continuing on with this bounty program!

A lot of health based ICO's at the moment
i can imagine within a year crypto will have burgeoning health sector

We agree.  This is a big selling point that does set us apart from most if not all of the other healthcare ICO's.  The other big difference is we have several large customers already on the platform.  Two large university hospitals and two more large hospitals onboarding now.  And the current contract we have signed will bring on several more large hospitals in 2018.  Again we hope to be able to give a full release of info on this current contract soon.

At what point does BurstIQ begin to work with Government bodies and other similar organizations in regards to birth certificates and other pertinent health information? It seems everyday information comes out about leaked private data(PHI/PII) that Gov't. bodies collect and administrate. If this type of platform becomes standard, I can even see a day where health clinics and donation centers(plasma centers, etc) are required in some way to use or be partnered with a platform such as this. That would greatly increase the user base and the overall platform.

Something else that comes to mind RE: my last post is the following:

Basically, Bitnation partnered with Estonia to notarize official documents on the blockchain. Seems like it might be wise for BurstIQ to partner with Bitnation. Bitnation represents a digital country one can become a member of. It would make sense that official documents that innately house health information would also live in the blockchain, and with a healthcare centered platform, BurstIQ, behind it.

We are already working with health information exchanges (HIEs) and other government-funded initiatives to make data more accessible. The platform is capable of supporting any type of data, including birth certificates, social security, and many other types of data. All of these would enhance a person's LifeGraph and increase the possibilities for what you can do with your data on the BurstIQ platform and ecosystem. We believe that the most appropriate entry point for government-held data will be integration of Medicare and Medicaid data into the platform, and that will occur with our HIE integrations. Over the next 1-2 weeks, we'll be posting a number of videos that show how a user can add birth certificate information, certifications and credentials, and other types of data to their LifeGraph.

Q&A Series, Question 1:

How did BurstIQ get started? How has the company evolved since it was founded?

Frank has spent his entire career working on cybersecurity, machine intelligence and high-capacity networks. ?I?ve had a lifelong passion for combining security and cooperative intelligence to solve very hard problems.  I wrote my first rudimentary ?AI? application in the mid 1980s and worked on advanced military grade high capacity networks and cryptographic solutions for the U.S. Air Force. This passion has carried forward through several companies, to include the first company I started.? 

Frank had created security and network solutions for the healthcare sector at Recondo Technologies, but it was personal experience that really turned Frank?s attention to healthcare. Shortly before starting BurstIQ, Frank received three notices that his personal information had been stolen. It was this experience that motivated him to leave Recondo in late 2014 and start working on concepts for a next-generation privacy solution for the healthcare industry.

In February of 2015, Frank was invited to be a Prospective CEO in the first 10.10.10 Health program. While researching the ten problems presented to the participants, Frank noticed a common thread: data. In particular, challenges with transparency and security of health data seemed to be the inhibiting factor to solving most of these problems.

BurstIQ was officially founded the following month with an initial seed round of $250,000 from PV Ventures. The first thing Frank did was call Brian Jackson.

Brian and Frank have worked together for over 17 years at three different companies. At the first of those companies, Innerwall, Brian and Frank worked on creating a cooperative agent technology to provide a security layer behind the firewall. ?This was our first attempt to use a ?zero knowledge? proof as part of a commercial solution,? recalls Frank. ?Zero knowledge trust establishment, in our opinion, is the most revolutionary feature of blockchain.? Over the course of those 17 years, the two of them built cybersecurity solutions for large enterprises, large-scale SaaS platforms for the military and government agencies, and data networks for large government and private enterprises.

With BurstIQ up and running and deep into development mode, Frank and Brian began to engage with enterprise and institutional customers to co-develop solutions for the ecosystem. These early applications allowed BurstIQ to demonstrate viable use cases for the platform and test the platform?s capabilities. Starting in early 2016 and during the next 12 months, the BurstIQ platform processed over 25B data points and provided analytics through several hundred ?insight cards? (analytics visualization tools).

We are currently focused on advancing the machine intelligence capabilities of the platform through partnerships in deep learning and artificial intelligence, and will soon begin developing the consumer interface for the platform. We have been lucky enough to achieve financial sustainability through stable revenue streams, and our roadmap for new customer integrations is very strong.

Q&A Series, Question 2:

What is the main aim and value proposition(s) of BurstIQ?  Who is the primary target market?

BurstIQ believes that people should be able to access and use their own data, control how their data is used, and have confidence that their data is safe. We also believe that data is critical to the future of healthcare, and that health systems, digital health companies, biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies, and researchers will all need data to create more effective treatments and health solutions. The trick is enabling both: ensuring people’s privacy and control while enabling organizations to access the data they need.

So BurstIQ created a platform that serves the needs of both of these groups: consumers and health-related organizations.

With regard to consumers, we know that there are lots of players out there who are using and making money from our health data, both for good reasons and bad reasons. Health systems and insurers use data to provide people with better care, and hackers use it for identity theft and to extract ransoms from health systems. BurstIQ wants to put people in control of their own data – letting each person decide if they want to keep their data completely private or share it, and if the latter, how, when, and with whom.

The BurstIQ platform does that. At a basic level, the platform lets people see all their own health data in one place and easily transfer that data to providers, family caregivers, etc. But the platform goes way beyond data transfers. The BurstIQ ecosystem enables marketplaces, collaborations, and lots of products and services that consumers can access. This could include discounted insurance, coaching or nutrition apps, online support groups, telehealth, opportunities to participate in research or clinical trials, pharmacy or medication discounts, etc. The possibilities are really endless.

In order for this ecosystem of products and services to exist, the platform needs companies and institutions to participate. And because the platform gives companies access to the health data they need to support their business, they have good reason to do so. Not only can they use health data from the platform to create more effective products, services and treatments, but they can partner with other organizations on the platform to build additional value, bundle complementary products, strengthen research programs, etc. That’s what we mean when we talk about an ecosystem. The platform provides a foundation for partnerships, collaborations, communities, and marketplaces. Data is flowing through all of these interactions – it is essentially the currency driving all of these relationships. And BurstIQ tokens (BiQs) are the digital currency that represent that data currency.

Please let us know if you have any other questions.

Q&A Series, Question 3:

What are the 2-3 main problems BurstIQ seeks to solve in the healthcare world?

BurstIQ was founded to address three fundamental problems in healthcare.

First, health data lives in silos, with little or no integration to other data sources. This is problematic for a number of reasons. It makes it difficult for providers to make fully informed care decisions, since they have no visibility into encounters that occurred outside their network. Insurance plans are implementing financial penalties on providers for unnecessary readmissions, but the provider may not be aware of readmissions that occur outside their network. And not having a comprehensive view of a person makes it tough to create personalized, highly effective products, services and treatments.

Second, while security and privacy regulations such as HIPAA are very important for ensuring people’s privacy, they make it extremely hard to combine and share data between people and organizations who need it or would greatly benefit from it. This makes it challenging for commercial and academic researchers to find the right research participants for their studies, for digital health companies to leverage data to improve the effectiveness of their products, and for employers to offer more personalized, more effective wellness plans. 

And most importantly, we as individuals often have limited access to our own data. Even when we do have access through personal health records (PHRs) or patient portals, it is often difficult to understand, and sharing it often requires multiple layers of paperwork and administrative overhead.

Thanks for sharing this info on which hospitals you work with.

I was wondering if you have a list of the pharmaceutical companies that you work with?

I noticed a slight discrepancy in the data:
"In the first 12 mounths of operation, the BurstlQ platform processed 25 billion data points", roadmap information 20 billion.
But the question is not this. It is interesting to know not the number of processed data, but the number of patients whose data was processed.
Thank you!

Should be 25 billion data points.  I will try to get a rough patient number.

Q&A Series, Question 4:

What are some case examples of how BurstIQ delivers real value in the real world?

Many people take medications that don’t work very well for them, but those meds are prescribed because they are cheaper, have fewer side effects, or other reasons. But we know that the person’s outcome would likely be much better, and the insurer or self-insured employer would save money in the long run, if they prescribed something that was more effective for that individual. To address this, BurstIQ formed a joint venture with BH Genetic Services  and Aeon Global Labs that enables self-insured employers to offer pharmacogenomics (PGx) testing as part of their employee wellness program. BurstIQ’s platform uses machine intelligence to identify individuals who would be likely to benefit from the test, and then the platform manages the entire testing process, from ordering to results. The person’s care team can use the PGx results to optimize their medication regimen – which not only improves the person’s health and quality of life, but also saves money for the employer. And by using the BurstIQ platform, the employer only orders the test for people who actually need it – saving additional cost.

Health systems tend to see significant variation in procedures between different providers in their network. Some doctors like to do it one way, others like to do it a different way. The problem with this is two-fold: First, higher variation means higher cost for the health system. If two doctors like to use two different types of kits in the OR, the health system has to keep both types of kits on hand, rather than being able to buy one type of kit in bulk (at lower cost). It also means that there could be significant lost revenue if one doctor does the procedure using a method that costs more but achieves the same clinical outcome. BurstIQ is partnering with an analytics and consulting company that focuses on health system optimization and cost recovery. The company will use BurstIQ’s data analytics engine and platform to identify areas where health systems can optimize their practices, reduce variability and recover lost revenue. The value of this has already been demonstrated – one healthcare system saw $100 million in cost savings and recovered revenue using this solution.

Lastly, the BurstIQ platform makes it significantly easier to create intelligent consumer-facing digital health solutions. For example, there are a number of companies trying to use movement detection technologies to predict fall risk in elderly populations. These solutions typically analyze a person’s gait to set a baseline and then monitor changes. The BurstIQ platform gives these companies access to large, diverse data sets and machine intelligence, allowing them to discover non-obvious predictors of frailty and incorporate these factors into their predictive algorithms.

Because pharma companies are most interested in engaging directly with people to find clinical trial participants and market drugs directly to the people who are interested in them, we need to launch the consumer version of the platform before we bring on pharma companies. We are working with two different life science companies on deployments that will give us all the technical backend to support pharma's needs, so it will be an easy deployment once the consumer interface is live.

Something that seems to be the norm is taking blockchain onto any new project. How does using the blockchain make this platform any more secure? I understand data in the system is only accessible via individuals with contracts but what stops a doctor or health physician from physically copying this data by hand, then imputing it into their own internal datastore? Bound by HIPAA they might be, it doesn't take much for them to break HIPAA in the interest of convenience knowing all to well how unlikely it is they'll be caught anytime soon. Furthermore, I've noticed analytics and data processing is a growing field within the healthcare space. What do you guys plan to do to incentise analytics teams from adopting this new platform? Each hospital, insurance company, client, all seem to have their system which creates a slew of process for an analytics team. What would make a team choose this platform, seemingly yet another caveat in the mix?

Why ICO for BurstIQ? is there a particularly unique use case for the token?

Don't mean to be respectful, there are a lot of these lately and most are thinking to raise money first and leverage blockchain later. Otherwise there are many other companies who are also reclaiming patient health data back to the patients. What makes you guys different?

Health Singularity is the idea that healthcare will soon be personalized down to each individual. Providers will no longer create treatment plans based on a particular diagnosis, or even based on similar groups of people with a particular diagnosis. They’ll be able to create a treatment plan that is specifically tailored for you, based on everything about you: your genomic and proteomic profile, your medical history, your family’s medical history, your lifestyle, etc.

But there are two things that have to be in place in order for Health Singularity to become a reality. First, the system needs to have enough data about each person that it can create a complete picture of that person – the more data is included, the more personalized the care can be. Second, there needs to be a complete profile for tens of thousands, or even millions of other people, so the system can find hidden trends and build predictive models. The more people are in the system, the more accurate the predictive models will be, and the more personalized care can become.

So here’s where LifeGraphs come in. The BurstIQ platform builds a LifeGraph for each person. The LifeGraph brings together data from all sorts of different sources: your primary care provider, your specialist doctors, that ER you visited once when you were on vacation, your dentist, your psychiatrist, your pharmacy, your pedometer, your glucometer… it can even pull in data from your social network accounts, if you choose to add those. By bringing together all of this data from different sources, the platform creates a complete picture of you – your LifeGraph. The more data is in each LifeGraph, and the more LifeGraphs there are, the closer we get to being able to achieve the Health Singularity.

Several questions in here... I'll try to answer each of them.

First, we didn't incorporate blockchain because all the cool kids were doing it. We incorporated blockchain because it allowed us to create an immutable and audible chain of custody for every data element in the platform - knowing exactly where a piece of data has been, for how long, and how it has been used or modified or shared over time.

Second, blockchain by itself doesn't do anything to make this platform secure. In fact, traditional blockchain is open and transparent, so it is, by definition, not secure. The BurstIQ platform uses a permissioned blockchain structure with trusted nodes to verify data elements, and data security in several forms at all levels of the platform. The white paper goes into pretty good detail on this.

Third, nothing stops a doctor from physically copying data by hand and inputting it into their own datastore... other than the fact that they could lose their license and be hit with a multi-million dollar fine. Even if they did do it, it would be logistically impossible for them to manually transfer the volume of data they'd need to do anything meaningful, like analytics, cohort research, or even stealing identities. Manual data breaches like that aren't really a significant risk, but large scale data breaches are - and those are exactly what the platform is designed to prevent.

Fourth, this platform is designed for exactly the analytics scenario you present. Without BurstIQ, in order for analytics companies to gain insights across the industry, they have to do 1:1 integrations with every hospital, every insurance company, every other company that manages health data. Each of those integrations can be months of work, and then the data has to be scrubbed and normalized so you can compare apples to apples. All that work before the real analytics can even start. The BurstIQ platform is designed to pull all those data sources together, so that analytics companies can access all the data they need through a single API. And as more data is added to the platform, you get access to those new data sets automatically (subject to people granting permission, obviously) - no new integrations required.

Totally understand the questions. I just posted a response to a similar question about why we're using blockchain, but the nutshell is that blockchain wasn't an afterthought for us. From Day 1 we knew we'd use blockchain because it provides an immutable and audible chain of custody for the data - so the platform knows who has seen a given piece of data, how it was used, and how that data element has been modified over time. This is essential for managing sensitive health data.

What makes us different from personal health records (PHRs, which is essentially what you're describing) is that PHRs don't really allow you to do anything with your data - you can see it and send it to your doc, but not much else. Our belief is that people should be able to not just access their own data, not just understand it, but gain value from it. Right now, health systems and insurers and pharma companies can access and extract value from your health data, but for the most part, you can't. So the BurstIQ platform creates a global marketplace where you can put your data to work for you - you can share it with digital health companies in exchange for personalized smart solutions, you can share it in exchange for discounted insurance rates or free wellness benefits from your employer. You can donate it to research causes you care about, you can participate in clinical trials, you can buy health-related products and services. In each case, you are choosing to share (or not share) your data, and each data transaction is accompanied by a financial transaction of BiQ tokens. Individuals may not be aware of the financial transaction because much of the activity on the platform may be free to them, and because the platform will be able to seamlessly exchange local currencies into BiQs.

So that's where the token sale comes in. We have a number of institutional customers already on the platform, but as we gear up for the consumer launch, we needed to do two things simultaneously: 1) ramp up our development team to build the consumer interface, and 2) build a community of early adopters so that we have consumers using the platform when the consumer product launches in 2018. Hosting a token sale allows us to do both: we can offer early adopters with discounted BiQs now so that when the consumer interface launches, these early adopters will have the currency (both literally and figuratively) to begin using the marketplace immediately.

Thanks for the extensive and prompt reply, appreciated, helps me a lot to understand.

I have a couple more questions in light of recent security breaches not only with health data but with data in general (read Equifax):

What sort of emerging trends and challenges exist around health data security and breaches?

How is BurstIQ seeking to address these concerns?

Sure, that's what we're here for. Equifax is a biggie, especially considering the number of profiles they manage and how much data they have on each person. Breaches are definitely a big problem in the healthcare industry - healthcare systems in particular are a big target for hackers because they have so much sensitive data and EMRs and patient portals have a lot of vulnerabilities. Historically, healthcare data was stolen for personal identity theft - a medical record can be worth as much as $1,000 on the black market. However, we are seeing a shift from identity theft to ransomware, where hackers are locking up entire systems of health data and extracting millions of dollars in order to restore access.

As more and more data is incorporated into the healthcare system and as access points (such as patient portals) become more widespread, the pace of these incidents will accelerate. The Health Care Industry Cybersecurity Task Force, established by the Department of Health and Human Services, indicated in their report to Congress that the healthcare industry isn’t prepared for this cyber onslaught. Most health systems focus on establishing traditional perimeter security solutions (e.g., firewalls). However, the mandate to enable people to access their data via patient portals creates security gaps that hackers can easily exploit.

Our team’s 65+ years of experience building secure networks and cybersecurity solutions for the U.S. Military and other government agencies provides us with a skill set that few others in the health IT industry can match. Rather than developing the platform and then addressing security after the fact, the BurstIQ platform was built from the ground up with security in mind. Security features are embedded into each data element and into the core platform architecture, which means security isn’t solely dependent on perimeter solutions and application-level security features. Because ownership rules are built into each data element, someone who is not an owner (or is explicitly permissioned by a Consent Contract) is simply unable to view the data. In addition, the platform’s decentralized design keeps data constantly in motion, increasing resistance to single-node and multi-node cyber attacks.

Hey Guys - I wanted to ask you what are BurstIQ's goals regarding contribution to the areas of medical research and major pharma clinical studies? Any timelines on working with major pharmaceutical brands and disclosing which companies you are planning to work with?

Thanks for your comment.  We did not add block chain tech to our platform for a ICO.  We had block chain in the tech from the very beginning.  There are a lot of ICO's out there that are trying to add block chain into their tech right now for that very reason.  Several of them really make no sense.

Another big difference between us and several of the other token offerings is that we have a built platform and have several enterprise customers.  We have been around for almost 3 years and are currently producing revenue which should give investors confidence that our token will be around in the future and provide great value.

Please take a look at a few of these articles that were written about BurstIQ well over a year ago when ICO's really weren't around talking about the BurstIQ platform running block chain.

http://gazette.com/colorado-springs-startup-makes-individual-medical-records-safe-in-the-cloud/article/1577752 (http://gazette.com/colorado-springs-startup-makes-individual-medical-records-safe-in-the-cloud/article/1577752)

http://startupbeat.com/2016/06/hacking-worlds-wicked-problems/ (http://startupbeat.com/2016/06/hacking-worlds-wicked-problems/)

Hey I have a question.

How does BurstIQ hope to improve patient access to health care and services, especially outside of the United States? A lot of my family lives outside of the United States and I know they could really benefit from this program!

Hi bitcoinjames6, we are definitely planning on working with medical research and major pharma companies. We currently have a relationship with UCHealth CARE Innovation Center (on the Anschutz Medical Campus) on the research side. Once the consumer interface is launched, we plan to engage with several major pharma companies. We're staggering the engagements this way on purpose - the biggest interest from pharma companies will be access to individuals - both for marketing of existing treatments and for clinical trial recruitment. So we want to make sure we have consumers on the platform before we bring on pharma companies.

But there are several major draws for academic researchers, pharma and biotech to a platform like ours:

First, the platform allows academic researchers, commercial researchers and CROs to directly reach people who fit the participant profile for their study. Typically, researchers find study participants in one of two ways: they either advertise the study on general channels (e.g., on the Internet) and hope that people will see it and contact them; or, providers and clinical research coordinators identify potential participants and talk with them about the opportunity. With the BurstIQ platform, researchers can query the system to find people who fit a certain medical, genomic or other profile. The system will return a list of people who fit that profile and have “opted-in” to learn about research. Then they can reach out to those people directly. This saves researchers a huge amount of time, energy and expense.

Second, the platform allows researchers to access large data sets far more easily than would otherwise be possible. Usually, researchers download data from multiple repositories separately. Often, this means additional cost and a lengthy contract process. Then the researcher has to parse and clean and standardize that data before they can even start the actual research. The whole process can take months. The BurstIQ platform allows researchers to access large data sets with one API, and the data is already parsed, cleaned and standardized.

Third, because the platform enables machine intelligence and deep learning, researchers can do more with the data. Associations and trends can be uncovered that lead to new discoveries, study participant profiles can be refined and stratified, treatments can be applied with more specificity, and data about human behavior and other non-medical factors can inform clinical studies.

Fourth, commercial biotech and pharma companies can market products directly to highly receptive audiences. Instead of mass outreach through print, online and TV advertising, companies can identify people who fit the medical profile for a particular drug and offer discounts or rebates directly to those individuals.

Fifth, the platform allows researchers to find others who are working in similar fields and collaborate. Research results can be shared with other researchers without compromising intellectual property rights or the privacy of the individuals participating in the study.

And finally, the BurstIQ platform eliminates the need for intermediary CTMS systems that act as a liaison between health system EHRs and biopharma companies’ clinical data repositories. These intermediary CTMS systems are often rife with missing or incorrect data, and correcting or preventing these mistakes requires significant manual labor and training.

In terms of disclosing who we're working with, we'll make those announcements when the partnerships are finalized.

Hi! The platform allows anyone, anywhere to access health-related products and services. So for example, a person in Thailand could use telemedicine on the platform to have a virtual appointment with a specialist in London, or donate their data to a research project in Brazil. The only limitation will be what is required by regional or national laws and regulations (e.g., licensure), and the platform will manage all of that automatically.

1.000.000.000 tokens at 0,12$.
So you actually want to raise $120 million in your presale+ico?

Thanks for the replies guys. Extremely educational on how valuable our health data is and where we don't even know where we could be monetizing it ourselves. The only obstacle there is making it easy for others or I guess "healthcare integrations".

Just like many fail to secure their crypto wallet addresses now properly or just prefer to leave it up to an exchange, are you going to be providing rights management solutions? it seems like you would as part of any integrations with HMO's , clinical trial providers etc and for "one click signups" etc.

Have you started talks with any of the bigger players like Aetna or BlueCross?

Hello
When you ll calculate second week? (signature bounty)  ::)
Thanks

Thanks for the comment.  We are going to have a massive announcement in the next few days relating to your question.  Once the paperwork is finalized we will be able to share all the info publicly.  Please stay tuned.

I think here no one ( investors or bounty) will get anything. Very strange project.

Thanks for the comment.  Yes, we had a few hiccups on the bounty program of which we hired a bounty agent.  We are not experts in token bounty programs, but what we are experts in is running successful companies, SaaS healthcare platforms, blockchain, and several other non healthcare platforms.  It's been amazing how much interest we have already had in purchasing tokens.  The public pre sales open up tomorrow.

Everyone will receive their bounties.

We are one of the few ICO's that have a working platform, have been around for for almost 3 years, have a patent around our idea, have a large working industry advisory board, and have several large scale customers on the platform already.  Please take a look at a few post from our customers websites.

Shit I missed out on the bounty. Will there be more ?

The way you answer the questions people have asked you is really good and thorough. Most Deva don't do this. Some even if or questions which doesn't look good on them. Maybe this is a project worth keeping my eye on ? Let's see.

Its some joke?  ;D
look at their bounty thread and spreadsheets. They didnt anything and didnt count anything for all time. People working for free here, I think. And investors probably also only spent money.

Thanks for the comments.  We have very high hopes for this crowdsale as well.

Check out our mention on Politico

THE LATEST HOT FAD TO COME TO HEALTH CARE IT: So a new trend is hitting health care, and we regret to inform you it involves buzzwords. (In this case, “blockchain” and “initial coin offerings.”) An “initial coin offering” is similar to an initial public offering, as the name suggests. However, unlike an IPO — where companies take money in exchange for equity — there’s a twist. In an initial coin offering, the company still takes money — but exchanges services instead. Think of it as a presale. We count now two companies (LitraCoin and BurstIQ) exploring the idea in connection to health IT — specifically EHRs.

Pre Sales are this week till the 26th and then the actual crowdfund starts next Tuesday.

Day 2 of Pre Sales are active.  There are just under 600M of the original 700M available.  Really excited and amazed on how many people are interested in the BIQ token.

Thanks everyone

Another great pre sales day.  Thanks again everyone.   ;D

Hi coin@coin! Thanks for your question. We have a pretty simple vision: we want to make the world a healthier place. And we believe that if people can access their own data, understand it, and use it make their own little part of the world a healthier place, that we’ll eventually make the whole world a healthier place.

In terms of our roadmap, our first priority is to grow the ecosystem – bigtime. We’ve been heads-down in development mode for the last two years, and during that time, we partnered with a number of large business customers to validate the platform and make sure the core capabilities were sound. Now that the platform is operational, we’re ready to grow. Our next big development milestone is to add the consumer interface, so that people can start going onto the platform and controlling their own data. That's why we're doing this BiQ token sale. The BiQ token will be the currency for all transactions on the BiQ Ecosystem, from data queries to buying products and services to donating data for research. By offering BiQ tokens now at a discount, we can start building a community of early adopters for when the BiQ Ecosystem launches in early 2018.

Regarding other industries, the short answer is yes. The BurstIQ platform can manage any kind of data, not just what we typically think of as health data. Over time, we expect to expand the scope of the platform to include water, finance, energy, community, education, and even some verticals that have yet to exist. We're starting with health because we feel the need is the greatest in this industry, but we are already talking with players in other industries about possible partnerships.

BurstIQ allows you to work with large data sets, which is of particular value to the insurance industry and research in the field of medicine.

Hi everybody!

Very interesting platform - got my attention because of the S&C-article btw:
https://www.smithandcrown.com/sale/burstiq-tokensale-blockchain-hosted-medical-record-storage-health-marketplace/


I have a couple of questions:


Blockchain:

How I understand it so far there won't be inflation of the token, right?  

What will be the incentive to secure the underlying Blockchain/Burstchain?

Will it be a truly decentralized system or more like a private Blockchain?  

Will the project, at least the Blockchain, be Open Source?



Business-model:

I understand the basics of the economical system of the platform, and I like it - but what is the business model of the company behind?


Regarding the Token Sale:

Is there any source to keep track of the sale, about how much already was sold etc.?

Is there a minimum cap?

What would happen with unsold tokens in case the crowdsale would not be sold out?



Would be great to get answers on my question. I really like the idea and I have not much doubt about the expertise of the team. What I'm a bit critical about is the lack of deeper infos. The legal documents seem to be longer than the whitepaper - obviously you have very good lawyers! ;-)  


Best regards,
tempus

Can you back up this claim? The BiQCrowdsale address on Etherscan only appears to have received ~36 ETH.

Usually, when it's hard to get answers on questions within 2 days, there are 3 possible scenarios:

1) A team doesn't have enough time.
2) A team doesn't believe it's necessary.
3) A team believes answering on certain questions would do more harm than good


I believe you'll understand that it's not possible for me to buy into the pre-sale and/or crowdfunding without having answers on those questions. In case those answers were already given somewhere, links to those sources would also be fine.

Or 4, our team has been traveling down to Nashville for a Healthcare Blockchain summit.  Sorry for the delayed response, will get to your answers here shortly.  We absolutely believe answering all questions is important.

Our CEO, is one of the speakers at this summit.  DISTRIBUTED: HEALTH 2017

Okay, thank you!


P.S.: I consider 4 as 1, but with given reason - additional thank you for that :)

Hi tempus,
I apologize for the delay. As Brian noted, we are in Nashville for the Distributed Health conference. I'll try to answer your questions one by one:

Blockchain:

How I understand it so far there won't be inflation of the token, right?
The token’s valuation is based on supply-and-demand as generated on the Platform and exchanges.  There will be no artificial inflation of the token itself by BurstIQ.    

What will be the incentive to secure the underlying Blockchain/Burstchain?
The incentive for securing the Platform is dictated in the permission blockchain arena by legal and ethical enforcement.  If you a a more specific question we will try to answer.

Will it be a truly decentralized system or more like a private Blockchain?
Currently the platform is a permissioned blockchain (private distribution).  As the platform evolves and the other encryption techniques are productionalized (see white paper), the plan is to allow for non-permissioned (public distribution) of the Burstchain.  

Will the project, at least the Blockchain, be Open Source?
Currently, the source code is not open source.  However, we are evaluating some options around open sourcing parts of the Platform.


Business-model:

I understand the basics of the economical system of the platform, and I like it - but what is the business model of the company behind?
Our business model has two primary revenue sources for the company: BurstIQ takes a small percentage on all BiQ transactions on the platform, and we have strategic partnerships (co-development, marketing and/or distribution) with revenue sharing or royalty provisions.  In terms of our roadmap, our first priority is to grow the ecosystem – bigtime. We’ve been heads-down in development mode for the last two years, and during that time, we partnered with a number of large business customers to validate the platform and make sure the core capabilities were sound. Now that the platform is operational, we’re ready to grow. Our next big development milestone is to add the consumer interface, so that people can start going onto the platform and controlling their own data. That's why we're doing this BiQ token sale. The BiQ token will be the currency for all transactions on the BiQ Ecosystem, from data queries to buying products and services to donating data for research. By offering BiQ tokens now at a discount, we can start building a community of early adopters for when the BiQ Ecosystem launches in early 2018.

Regarding the Token Sale:

Is there any source to keep track of the sale, about how much already was sold etc.?
For the public crowdsale, yes we plan to have a tracking system of tokens sold and goals obtained.  We have not released info about our pre sales at this time.

Is there a minimum cap?
We did not set a minimum cap.

What would happen with unsold tokens in case the crowdsale would not be sold out?
The unsold tokens would be placed back into the BurstIQ pool for a possible use at a later date.

Would be great to get answers on my question. I really like the idea and I have not much doubt about the expertise of the team. What I'm a bit critical about is the lack of deeper infos. The legal documents seem to be longer than the whitepaper - obviously you have very good lawyers! ;-)  

As for the legal, yes we have retained Cooley for our legal team and I would agree they are very long, but we are following the advice or our legal team.

I hope that helps. If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

Many thanks for the reply and no need to apologize. Very understandable that there is a lack of time if you guys are on a conference.

To clarify my question regarding "incentive to secure the blockchain" - it's meant economically. The Bitcoin-protocol pays BTC to the miners. Other blockchains have similar designs. I understand that it will not start as a decentralized system, so it's not a topic for now. But since you say that it's a goal to decentralize the system and that there will be no inflation of that kind, I don't understand how to pay those who would run and secure a decentralized blockchain.  


Why I asked those questions in general is because: This project could very well turn out as a pearl between all the crap that is hyped up in this space. It doesn't get much attention until now, what is not a contra for me personally. Usually I try to find projects I believe to see longterm potential in, while being under the radar of a majority.

But, my concern is: You say that there is no minimum-cap, what would mean in worst case that you might get much less than anticipated and needed. Let's say, as extreme scenario: Only $3 millions. That would be a limitation of possibilities. You also say that the crowdfunding won't be a decision about the total supply - all what won't be sold will go back to the company. The total supply multiplied with ICO-price is not cheap. I don't even say it's not justified - hard to ever make such estimations and your project is obviously farer developed than a lot of others that only start as concepts. But it's at least a consideration that you'll need additional crowdfunding rounds or maybe to sell on an exchange once/if your token gets listed. Result would be pressure on the price.

While I like a lot about this project, that is something that makes it a bit unpredictable.


Is there any Plan B in case that you don't reach something like a minimum goal and how to proceed in such a case? I'm sure that you know pretty well what you need for certain scenarios from "at least" to "best case".


Btw, what I said about the legal documents wasn't meant critical. Actually I see that as a sign of professionalism, even if scary ;-)

Good day everyone!

EQUITIES: "BurstIQ believes that people should own their data and should be the ones to decide who sees it, how much and when they see it and what they're entitled to do with it. The company calls this the Health Singularity and its technology platform was built explicitly to leverage blockchain to become the primary marketplace that powers this."

Really cool having a major publication doing a writeup about BurstIQ

BurstIQ: Leveraging Blockchain and Big Healthcare Data

https://www.equities.com/news/burstiq-leveraging-blockchain-and-big-healthcare-data (https://www.equities.com/news/burstiq-leveraging-blockchain-and-big-healthcare-data)

https://res.cloudinary.com/equities-com/image/upload/v1454095498/system/eq-logo.png

Thank you for all your questions.  As you have said the current implementation is a trusted peer based system.  BurstIQ or a provider will be hosting the system just as we are today, due to the fact that patient data (PHI) must be secure and encrypted.  All public blockchains are transparent and do not provide the required level of protection.  That is where our permissioned blockchain solves out for PHI data.  As the platform evolves along the published roadmap, the ability to publicly distribute the nodes securely will mature. At that time we will release the public version.  We have also enabled a large-scale analytics functionality on our blockchain that allows queries to scale at nosql speeds.  We have obtained our first phase patent on this design.
 
As for the plan B, you are correct that current ICO/crowdfunding projects projections are hard to exactly plan outcomes.  We have put together a high level plan for different funding amounts.  Anything in the 2-6 million dollar range puts us in the acceptable range moving forward.  Acceleration plans come in the 10M, and 20M range, and the moon shot comes in the 50M range.  Our offices are in the health care mecca for IT right now (Denver, Colorado), and have a very good footprint and following with the local community.  We plan to use a portion of the proceeds to invest in other healthcare startups and healthcare technologies to expand the number of solutions on our platform into the  100s and eventually, 1000s of applications and services.
 
We currently have two large universities on the platform, (UCHealth and UTMB) and are actively integrating two other large-scale health systems (hope to be able to announce soon, again legal). We are also working with 3-5 other large-scale hospitals.  We will publish a press release in the next few days announcing a partnership with a vendor that would connect us to all the major healthcare insurance providers and would put millions of users on the platform.  (Stay tuned for that press release.)
 
If this crowdsale only hits our minimum, we would just not be able to scale as fast as we would with large raises of tokens.  But again, we are already profitable.  This token sale is more to accelerate the development and adoption of the consumer version of the platform.

Smith+Crown agressively gaurds their independence.  To even be considered for analyst coverage such as this a company must pass a extensive due dilligence process.  No way to buy something like this.   

Okay, thank you for the answers!

Have to say this is pretty amazing.  Smith & Crown do very few write ups on token sales.

Sitting through a number of sessions at the Hashed Health Distributed Health Conference.  Common theme.  Industry needs the ability for the individual to managed, control, and use their health data.  Specifically, industry needs the ability to support patient consent.  It is great to see so many rally behind developoing a consent based solution.  This is an international requirement.  We recognized this need a while ago, that's why we developed our informed consent contract functionality.  We've had a tremendous positive response ref what we're doing from some pretty signficant players.  We are definately ahead of others.  But we all agree, blockchain based solution is the only real way to manage consent at scale.

BurstIQ and iCan Announce Strategic Partnership to Offer Complete Portfolio of Insurance Products to BiQ Holders

As promised a major partner announcement with one of the largest insurance resalers in the country that will bring millions of users onto the BurstIQ platform using the BIQ tokens.

“iCan has consistently been rated as one of the top insurance sales firms in the country. They were pioneers in the use of bundled benefits and we are thrilled to be collaborating with them to transform health access,” says Frank Ricotta, chief executive at BurstIQ. “There is so much buzz about how blockchain might be able to change the healthcare industry. This is a perfect example of how it is changing the industry.”

I am an investor in Patientory and Bowhead Health. How do you differentiate yourself from these two? Or at least the first one, which is more of a direct competitor, I believe. And pardon me, if this has already been discussed. I can't read 10 pages of a forum that easily :)

Thanks for your comment.  We really don't see either as a direct competitor.  We are probably closer to Gem.

Patientory is essentially a personal health record (PHR), which allows you to aggregate and share your data with providers. What Patientory and other PHRs don’t do is allow users to collaborate, partner and network through an ecosystem. Some examples: With BurstIQ, you can discover new products and services that use your data (with your permission) to provide you with personalized products and services. You can choose to share your data with researchers working on diseases or other areas that are of particular interest to you. There are a million different things you could choose to do with your data, but all of them are under your complete control. As the ecosystem grows, so will the possibilities of how you could put your data to work for you. This is also insanely helpful for companies who need data to support their products or reach customers, but typically can't get it at all (or have to go through 9 months of integration - with each partner). With BurstIQ, they can access data directly and immediately from people who want to share it with them.

We think this has a much larger opportunity because we are supporting both consumers who want to control their own data and businesses who want to access data, customers, etc. The platform is also designed to intake any data type, so while we're starting with healthcare, we could eventually go into other areas where data access and ownership is important: education, energy, water, etc.

Bowhead has created a medical device that performs at-home biometric testing and uses the test results to create personalized vitamin and supplement packages. Their data capture and sharing capabilities are focused specifically on IoT device data, not Big Data applications.

The BurstIQ platform combines blockchain with Big Data capabilities, machine learning, and advanced security protocols to enable complex, highly sensitive data (of any type) to be managed, permissioned and shared without compromising security and privacy. We have built an ecosystem on top of this platform that: 1) allows people to access their own data, control who else can use it or see it, use it to access products and services that interest them, participate in research, etc. and 2) allows companies to find and engage with customers who would benefit from their products, build research / clinical trial cohorts, partner with other companies, build deep learning and AI tools, create personalized products and services, and lots of other possibilities.

Bowhead Health would actually be a great partner to join the BurstIQ ecosystem. The ecosystem would give them access to lots of other types of data that could enhance their personalization algorithms, it would give them end-to-end data management of the biometric, supplement and compliance data, and it would significantly expand the options for how their users could choose to gain value from their biometric data.

A real markplace to use BiQs for your health services.  HUGE!!!!

Take a look at what BurstIQ will be apart of in the hottest IT healthcare city in the US.

"Catalyst HTI will create a community of healthcare innovation professionals and businesses in order to quicken the pace of industry advancement by providing a welcoming, healthy, and informative environment where thought leaders can collaborate and innovate, together."


http://catalysthealthtech.com/community (http://catalysthealthtech.com/community)

Just finished up at the Distributed Health conference in Nashville, and the overwhelming response to our platform has been, "Ohhh, that is so badly needed in this industry." Makes us feel pretty good, and we're so grateful for the support we've received from the community.

Amazing community.  We will be creating a Blockchain Health innovation center here.

Three big themes.  1 - need a better way to manage patient/person consent.  2 - A person should have more control over their health information.  3 Security.   All foundational to the platform. 

Please let us know if you see anyone trying to scam the sale. 

We will keep this community informed over the next weeks.

Day 2 of the Token Sale

https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2017/09/26/1132968/0/en/BurstIQ-Digital-Token-Crowdsale-Opens-Today-September-26-2017.html (https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2017/09/26/1132968/0/en/BurstIQ-Digital-Token-Crowdsale-Opens-Today-September-26-2017.html)

Many of you have asked how we are different from our competitors, and we have provided specific information on how we are different from other [Suspicious link removed]panies in the health space. Frank and I just returned from the Distributed Health conference, where every company that is involved in blockchain and health was in attendance. There are lots of great ideas brewing out there, but it is clear that this is still a nascent field with tons of room for innovation and growth.

Having seen what's out there, I can say that there are a few areas where BurstIQ has developed technologies that are completely novel:

1. Informed Consent: traditional smart contracts can handle simple transactions, but BurstIQ's Consent Contract layer can create complex smart contracts where data has multiple owners, permission can be revoked or limited to a subset of a person's LifeGraph, permission can be granted to groups or definitions of groups rather than specific individuals, etc. This is something we heard over and over is essential for managing health data, and BurstIQ is the only company that has enabled and fully deployed this.

2. Ecosystem: There are a few companies looking to put health (or in some cases, just medical) data on blockchain - either for operations / supply chain management or as a personal health record. BurstIQ is the only company that is putting health data (broadly defined) on blockchain and then establishing an ecosystem that allows people to control and gain value from their own data, and allows companies and individuals to create partnerships, market products, buy products, collaborate on research projects, create B2B services, and more. This is another aspect of our platform that many attendees told us was desperately needed in the healthcare industry.

3. BurstIQ is the only company that has applied Big Data capabilities to the core blockchain, which means that a) the platform can handle large data volumes industry-wide level rather than needing to build separate (siloed) instances that can only handle a limited amount of data, and b) the platform can apply machine learning, real-time data analytics, AI and other tools to the data, which opens up a whole world of possible uses of the data.

A few other factors that set us apart:
1. We have paying customers, a strong customer pipeline and are profitable.
2. With our partnerships with Empiric Health and iCan Benefit Group, we will bring in hundreds of thousands of LifeGraphs, millions of data transactions and large portfolios of consumer products on the Ecosystem.
3. Our platform is fully operational - we are not just a whitepaper or vaporware looking for start-up funding.

Still on the main page!!! WOW.

Health, Auto, Property, Pet, roadside assistance, telemedicine, and more all fullfilled through the HealthWallet. 

Still working releasing a few of the platform video and will have them out soon.

The market for health data is huge. We see many aims for gwtting datas of many target groups and customers/patients, who are giving out these datas for little benefits.

A whole genome sequence test generates 80-100GB per person.  We've only just begun to witness the power of precision medicine based on these tests and those that will follow.   By 2020 Health data will exceed 2,300 EB. 

We believe each person should own their own and control their own data.  It's the only way to put power back in our hands. 

Thank you for your answers BurstIQ guys. You've got my attention now :)

Thanks for comments.  We think we have something pretty special going on.

Hi BurstIQ

In the first page of the announcement the link for the Greek translation is wrong, it's pointing at the Spanich one.
Please correct it with this: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2129849.0


Thanks

How much has been raised so far? Can not find any information about this on your official website.

As for me, I prefer BurstIQ, than its competitors like Patientory, etc. Healthcare can reach new heights through the BurstIQ platform. The Burst IQ is the 1st step of improving the quality of care for health system all over the world. Good project!

The far majority of our sales have been through private agreements for tokens and not through the normal Ethereum contract transaction.  This seems to be the way token sales are going at this time.  We will try to provide some number soon.  Overall, the sale is going very well.

yes, with blockchain it is easy for people to access and use their health data and to control how their data is used, the challenge is how hospitals adopt this idea, as they have the data in hand

Answer seen in your signature :-*

I already sign up for MEDX pre-sale.

We had a really good week last week and lots of interest at Distributed Health 2017

Becker's Health IT and CIO Review just posted this about us:

"Blockchain companies, such as Denver-based BurstIQ, are working closely with health systems and care
providers to help them maximize data insights and exchange."

Users can earn tokens by sharing information, is that correct? Is there any limit to how often a user can share info and therefore the rate at which they earn tokens?

Good question. The important thing to remember is the term "marketplace". Users who decide to share their data will share it with those interested in utilizing the data (e.g. research studies, etc.) So an limit will be determined by the market.

OK thanks for letting me know - good luck with everything :)

the question is if this data will be valuable to get paid for sharing.

how many tokens were sold already, how many eth collected?

BurstIQ seems kind of poorly marketed to me. Even the name doesnt really help to describe the health domain you're in or why the average person should care.

My own interest perked up only after it was explained here i.e. the possibilities that any person has with their *own* health data that you guys became interesting to me. What that analyst said

"BurstIQ plans to provide a marketplace for exchanging health information and offering products and services, where control and access rights over the data lies with the individual who can choose with whom to share their data and for how long, or whether to sell their data or donate it to a project or study they support. This represents an innovate aspect of the platform, insofar as it represents a unique intersection where Individuals, research institutions, and pharmaceutical or other medical related companies can identify either studies they would like to participate in or appropriate subject populations for trials and research projects.

This should be on your front page :)

Thanks for the comment.  We are working with a new PR firm and will be having some major announcements soon.

What is the end of the fees? How much investment has been collected so far?

this is probably crowdsale adress with :
ETH Balance:    165.915223001 Ether

interesting times. Bad is that tommorow starts 36 ICOs and will be hard to get much attenction

So with this funds that your project has gather up to now, does it reached the soft limit?
Is the project ready to be active?

Further on the above, are the stakes of the bounty participants going to be paid ?

What is your soft cap now?

This is correct on the public crowdsale numbers.

We didn't set a soft cap.  Yes the bounties will be paid out when the tokens are released. 
With the transition of the ICO market to the SAFT agreement sales we are extending the private sales.  We have had a little over 10+ plus million in verbal commits to the SAFT agreements but unfortunately the SAFT agreement take time and go through a more legal process.  Our target goal is still in the 20+ million mark by end of year.

We also have close some major MOU announcements that we hope will push us past our target goal and will release the info here shortly.

We will be updating everyone soon on our progress and next steps.

As for the project ready to be active, please refer to our whitepaper for timelines and none of that has changed.

Thanks everyone for your comments

Hi! When will the final count of the number of tokens be made to the members of the bounty program?

ICO and bounty - have died?

thanks for the updates Brian

so we will have a bit longer for having our tokens ready 😁

This is very good news sad is that this project is going so under radar now.
I think this one of best examples where blochain technology can shine.

Creating the ‘Health Singularity’ With BurstIQ and Blockchain

Medical records, arguably the most valuable data in the world, exists across multiple platforms. The comprehensive medical history of a single person is likely scattered across several different companies, stored in varying systems and locations. How valuable would that data be if it could all be stored in one place, while still remaining secure and entirely confidential?

https://bitsonline.com/health-singularity-burstiq/

I'm interesting in this project and i want to be a part of it. From which point i can start? I hope to answer me soon... Thanks!

Hello. The Signature Bounty is over! When the calculations for the number of shares of the Signature Bounty are completed ?? And can I remove the signature now?

Will anybody answer me ? can i remove the signature already, or not?

Yes, the bounty is over and our bounty agent is working on all the results.

Thanks again everyone.

Good morning everyone!

For everyones awareness we will be disseminating bounty funds to your ETH addresses after we have completed our Audit, which can take a little bit of time. We will be sending out an email in the near future with more information.

For now we will be spending our time fixing hacked ETH addresses and answering your question. Note that if your stakes aren't correct at this point. it may be that you either didn't fill out the form, but more that 20 stakes a week (for the twitter BP) or you haven't sent us documentation from your google analytics proving the total reach of your articles. We will continue to work on all of this before funds are disseminated to ensure that there aren't any question.

Have a great day!

BurstIQ has major announcement.

BurstIQ and Unified Signal Partner to Launch First Blockchain Enabled Crypto-Wallet integrated Mobile Phone Service

https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2017/11/10/1184548/0/en/BurstIQ-and-Unified-Signal-Partner-to-Launch-First-Blockchain-Enabled-Crypto-Wallet-integrated-Mobile-Phone-Service.html (https://globenewswire.com/news-release/2017/11/10/1184548/0/en/BurstIQ-and-Unified-Signal-Partner-to-Launch-First-Blockchain-Enabled-Crypto-Wallet-integrated-Mobile-Phone-Service.html)

If you are still interested in BIQ tokens please contact us at info@burstiq.com

what platforms do you use on your token?

Sound great. What is ETA until audit so we can move on to airdrop distribute?

I have a question to the representative of the company:
When pay to all participants of bounty of the company, the price will fall approximately by 5-7 times.
How you are going to correct coin cost? Or you will just trust in the market?

Hm....is this topic dead???

What has happened to this project?
Twitter posts have stopped and also posts in my local community have stopped as well

When are the bounty payments are going to be fulfilled?
A lot of people have contributed to this project and spent many hours on promoting it everywhere

apparently they still have negotiations with investors so they dont want to release the token yet...
i hope they gonna sort that out soon as i really like the project

yes but they have to inform all the people of the community about it
some of us have invest time and money for this project
they cannot leave the thread like that without an y update

this thread is very quite, do we still have any chanches to receive our share of coins? or we can forget about it??

I think we should forget this project. because I think they not will pay us. no need to expect on this project, there are many other projects that are better for us to follow

 
I also think that it makes no sense to ask the same sad question, I think they are already having a rest with the girls at the resort sipping cocktails

I think it's not big deal. The project raised not very much. So they couldn't pay us a lot. Let's forget about them.

I do not expect to much, but would be not bad to receive bounty, because I did my job and they are promise to pay, but now looks like it was not true

I do not think this company is scammers. They promised to pay off with everyone. Simply, their token will be frozen until March 30. That's it.

so why they didn't post an announcement here in the forum, at ANN and bounty threads explaining all the facts and the reason that postpone the project and the payments.

does the bounty manager kept safe all the files with the stakes of all participants?

This is information from the Telegram. I think there announce faster. Join the database of fresh information.

the sad thing is that if we join to their telegram channel and starting talking and complain about
the stakes of the bounty program, probably they will kick us out of it because we are going to
"destroy" their image to potential clients

I do not think so. There's good feedback. I think that Telegram is a good tool for solving all kinds of disagreements.
This should not affect the reputation of the project.

Token on the ICO sold for 12 cents. I hope after March 30 do not have to wait much, and we will see a token on the exchanger. I hope that the token can do at least X2. ::)

Can someone please tell me the crowdsale price of the BurstIQ tokens with the best bonus applied? Calculated in USD and ETH.

As you can see one post above your post the price in USD was 0.12 USD. I don't know the exact price in Ethereum or Bitcoin.

No mods active on Bitcointalk? I also tried to reach someone via Telegram, but seems like everybody also knows the price valued in FIAT.

If the developers do not deviate from their plans, the distribution of the tokens will take place around March 30th. I hope that this will happen.  It would not be bad to provide any information about the exchangers.

 this project is really a great project. but, how to combine the power of blockchain, big data,hope it will be successful

The service in the block chain can have uncompromising and trustworthy information, which can be quickly accessible. The team has not a bad idea. It is a pity that the projects on medecine are not very popular.

To date, not one of the medical projects on the detachment, conducted by ICO, can not boast of impressive success. But someone will definitely take this niche.

Of course, this can be several projects. But, since I took part in this bounty of the company, I want something that the team, already, left the fog, and declared itself as a promising project. I hope that I will wait for this. Of course, payment, maybe not great. But so much waiting time should not pass without a result.

I see that the company started its work in August, but for some reason it has not yet entered the stock exchanges, it's very strange, I would even like to buy your coins, because I like this idea, but here's what you really long tighten this minus

Waves is one of the best projects in crypto in one year we can be as big as Ethereum for sure. Dex will be a huge step in the right direction.

I'm interesting in this project and i want to be a part of it. From which point i can start? I hope to answer me soon... Thanks!

Oh, man. The bounty company was already completed long ago, and it is likely that some participants have already forgotten about it. I think if they go to the exchangers, then you can buy tokens there.
Now they are cooperating with new partners and they just heads-down integrating new customers on the platform and closing out a Series A funding round.

It's all good!
But the question is, when will the bounty members receive their reward?

The project received awards, it's time for the bounty participants to get a reward for the work done, or to understand when it will happen;)

Thank you so much!!

They are still integrating with other partners. As you may have noticed, this does not happen quickly. But they did not disappear and they remember their obligations.
From the Telegram:
"Hi All, in the latest news, VitalWare and BurstIQ are teaming up to bring secure blockchain to healthcare revenue cycle services for over 600 hospitals across the country. I will let you know as soon as I have new information on that."
