Problems in the data industry

USERS
Data Privacy Infringed
The Data market is dominantly controlled by centralized services that aggregate data and sell them to other enterprises to generate huge revenues. Individuals do not know how their data is collected, priced and sold.
Not Rewarded Fairly
Neither fair rewards nor data ownership is granted to individuals, who are the original data source.

APPS
Illegal Data Monetization
Because there are no existing markets for apps to sell personal data, apps rely on the sales of data through illegal means. This results in a massive infringement of personal privacy as individuals do not know how their data is collected, priced and sold.

DATA CONSUMERS
Rising Advertising Costs
Advertising costs have increased because the control of data lies with centralized data brokers. This is a problem for small and medium enterprises as they find it hard to have access to high quality data in low quantities.


Missing Marketplace
Today, there are no existing data marketplaces that allow enterprises to purchase high quality and insightful data at reasonable prices to run effective and targeted campaigns. Data consumers / advertisers needs more direct and granular data – beyond simple pieces of info like gender, browsing history and residence.

---

AIRBLOC'S FEATURES
DAuth Protocol
DAuth is an approval system that seeks permission from users to allow apps to monetize their data on their behalf. Collected data include installed apps list, location data, app usage time, browsing history, apps store transaction history, etc. Through DAuth, users will be able to earn from the monetization process. The distribution of rewards is guaranteed by smart contracts.

Data Campaigns
Aside from personal data collected by the Airbloc App and DAuth, enterprises can also initiate data campaigns to collect more granular and direct data about a user. Examples of such data include “Alice likes cats, and is intending to purchase a cat.” Although such inferred data can be bought from existing marketplaces, they are not conclusive of an individual’s real preference, furthermore to even obtain such data would be highly expensive. No such direct data is available today in any data marketplace.

Data Marketplace
Personal data collected will be sold on the Airbloc Data Marketplace and enterprises would be able to buy these data to conduct Targeted advertising.


ABL Token
Enterprises will purchase data through ABL tokens, users and apps are rewarded with ABL tokens for supplying data to the marketplace. For more technical information, visit our Technical Whitepaper.

---

THIS IS HOW WE DIFFERENTIATE
Simple Deployment and Easy Onboarding
3rd party app developers can install the Airbloc Software Development Kit in 10 minutes and users will immediately gain access to the Airbloc Network.

Scalability and Extensibility
Unlike other blockchain projects like Datum and Datawallet, Airbloc does not have to acquire users by encouraging them to download a native application because of the Airbloc SDK.

Airbloc’s proprietary SDK has already been stress tested by over 40,000,000 mobile devices in Korea.
If an App has 30 million users, and the App's developers decides to install the Airbloc SDK,
30 million users will immediately be able to monetize their data and supply data to the Airbloc Data Marketplace.

Looks promising.

Thanks! We are working really hard. if you have any question feel free to ask us.

Thanks for sharing and thanks for your support.

thanks for your support

I have glanced at your website. I find your project a good one. Why the conversion rate between ABL and AIR- nontransferable token is 1:1 rather than other rate?
Your initial token is 400 mil? What's the maximum supply?
By the way, I would like to translate your materials into Vietnamese if you want.

Thanks for nice questions about AIRBLOC.
The reason why we have set conversion rate 1:1 is that the role of AIR is for not value stabilization token, but it is form of power token of ABL. (it's similar as Steem power)

Maximum supply converges to 538 million ABL.

Thanks for your support! for translating please contact us on community telegram.

Thanks for your support ;)

Hi Airbloc team we would like to invest..is there a way we can speak to your team member.

indeed a promising project. ill definitely watch out for these after I've read that announcement that it has signed a strategic partnership agreement with ICON Foundation(@helloiconworld) and Deblock. Airbloc will use ICON to develop Aero Network this is totally insane.
How about bounty campaign if ever?

Airbloc is a blockchain-based, decentralized and transparent ad data trading network and a DAPP.

when will the ico start? what is the minimum to invest?

it is one of the promising projects. good luck

Is the bounty going to be or not? Recently, serious projects do not organize bounty in social networks, sometimes signature campaign, but this is rare.

Statements in white-paper are just words, and not more. Explain, what really happens with the token?  https://circleci.com/gh/airbloc/token/tree/master   https://github.com/airbloc/token -  what is the problem, what are the reasons for such changes, and why they are not corrected?

So, the public sale start 19 June, right (as stated on website)? What is minimum/maximum cap for one account?

2nd Presale has closed within 3 minutes. 3800 ETHs have been raised.

public sale will start soon.

min cap is 0.5eth

we do not organize bounty program for viral advertisement such as social networks or signature.
but we are planning to reward who find bugs on code or suggest critical improvement proposal. we will announce it with more detail when it is prepared.

thank you.

it has been fixed. token itself has no problem at all.

if there is any issues on code please make issue on github. thanks  :D

Projects looks solid, and solid partners. But there are many projects with similar idea already. What advantages you have?

Many other projects, too, share the topic of Personal Data, Big Data, and Digital Advertising like AIRBLOC protocol. However, AIRBLOC protocol clearly distinguishes itself from the following projects.

Project title	Major subject of decentralization	AIRBLOC's major subject of decentralization	How AiIRBLOC protocol different itself
Basic attention token	User Attention & ad exposure	personal data	The subject of decentralization is different. BAT uses browsers to decentralize personal interests data and its corresponding Ad Exposure, while AIRBLOC is decentralizing anonymized personal data. AIRBLOC does not operate an independent browser nor advertisement placements. Therefore, AIRBLOC’s project yields no relation to personal interests.
AdEx	ad exposure	personal data	The subject of decentralization is different. AdEx attempts to decentralize the whole process of Ad Exposure with decentralized advertisement placement, from the ad publisher to the advertiser. But such attempt is unrealistic since it requires having large set of advertisement placements or a very efficient use of the advertisement placements via machine learning or AI. AIRBLOC basically aims anonymized personal data for decentralization, not advertisement placement transactions. AIRBLOC first decentralizes anonymized personal data to create data market, and have other advertising platforms participate in this market voluntarily by purchasing personal data for effective advertisement. Naturally, decentralization of the ad market is formed.
Datum	Personal data	Personal data	AIRBLOC allows Apps to engage in surrogate data sales via DAuth & SDKs. Also, with the launch of Data Marketplace can be added to the existing Airbridge dashboard and instantly commercialized.
Ocean Protocol	Any data or Data set	Personal data	AIRBLOC does not deal general data such as the acquisition and trading of schema data for the data market and development of AI like Ocean Protocol. In particular, Users always become a primary data producers on AIRBLOC, not large organizations or government data sets.
DataWallet	Personal Identity Data	Personal Data	AIRBLOC collects data related to the User-level identification and uses them only for the purpose of Data Reliability Evaluation. Rather, it is possible to more accurately assess the Users’ reliability on AIRBLOC by linking with a project that builds a decentralized identity system for the individual User, such as DataWallet.

Take a look at my article on the subject! Looks like an interesting ICO

ICO Analysis: AIRBLOC
Published on June 14, 2018
By VlaSem

Inflation
Actually, I was bothered by the inflation concept, so I dug into inflation and AIR issuance.
inflation will work in two ways:
1) ABL mined by nodes through a POS which requires ABL and is set at 2.5% per annum with 10.9% decrease in yield.
2) Though conversion of AIR, which is also given to user as per their contribution and amount of AIR they have.
To get ABL tokens, you must:
    Buy at the exchange
    Receive reward from node
    Convert from AIR
In this sense, the procedure of AIR issuance is rather important. And for this AIRBLOC introduces a concept of AIR pool.
AIR pool will be a dynamic account, from which rewards will be given as per process described above. What is important is to understand how it is filled in the first place:
    10% of total supply of ABL goes to AIR pool to ensure liquidity.
    It is filled with trading fees, data usage rights fees paid by refineries and penalties for misbehavior.
Thus we see that issue of AIR is an ongoing process. But in order to hinder potential price dumps by AIR holders, conversion of AIR to ABL per hour is limited to 0.1% of AIR generated by the network.

Team
Roi Nam is the CEO and co-founder. He also served as CEO of ab180 (parent company) for two years.  He was engaged in web development for 1.5 years, as well as CSO for 1 year.
Wonkyung Lyu is the Dev Team Lead and co-founder. He is also co-founder in ab180.
Hunjae Jung serves as the project’s Back-end Part Lead and co-founder  and was also part of the founding team at ab180. Naeun Kim, Design Team Leader, rounds out the founding team at AIRBLOC.
The broader team is filled with developers and business professionals that are associated with ab180.
The advisory team includes JH Kim, who is also part of the ICON Foundation. He has almost 20 years of experience in the field of security, has experience in developing patented applications, such as the FCI protocol, has the CISA qualification, and is currently the director of Theloop.
Jason Han, who serves General Director of Kakao Blockchain, is also on the advisory team. He has served co-chairman and technical director of FuturePlay Tech VC.
Serial entrepreneur  Sungjae Hwang is also an adviser to the project. He is a partner of Futureplay, the initial high-speed accelerator in South Korea and the CEO of FoundationX. Prior to these companies, he founded several start-ups. He worked as the chief product officer in Fluenty Inc. and AI chatbot startup, which was acquired by Samsung Electronics in 2017.
Louis Jinhwa Kim, who previously served as Director of the Tide Institute Institute of Finance and Delegate of the Republic of Korea to the United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (2012), is also on the team.

Partners include:
    GS SHOP, a leading online retail platform in Korea.
    Allbit, a new type of crypto exchange gateway. .
    FoundationX, one of the growing funds and accelerators of venture capital in Korea.
    VEAT, which is one of the leading law firms in Korea specializing in startup advisory services.
    ORANGEFARM, which is focused on incubating promising startups in Korea. ab180, the parent company AIRBLOC, was incubated in ORANGEFARM as early as 2017.
    SENTIENCE, one of the leading Korean research companies,.
    Deblock, an accelerator in Korea which is jointly invested by ICON Foundation & Ad4th Insight, a specialized block-chain company.
    Battle Entertainment, a leading comic platform in Korea, serving more than a million customers.
    Humanscape, a the leading medical platform for customer relationship management in Korea, which helps hospitals monitor the condition of patients after surgery and provide follow-up services to patients.
    Rainist, a leading Korean software company which provides recommendations for financial products based on lifestyle patterns.
    Fysical, the world’s first full-fledged, fully functional, decentralized market for location data.
    Indorse, a decentralized social network for professionals.

Verdict
A large team with extensive experience in the sector looks solid. The guys were able to attract consultants in areas where there are obvious gaps, as well as partners represented by ICON.

Risks
    Based on token sale ROI statistic, marketplaces and advertising related projects do not have a good performance in the short term. -1
    Customer attraction could face challenges. However, to offset this, the platform has developed a proprietary AirBloc Protocol SDK (software development kit) that has already been stress tested by 60 million devices in Korea. The SDK Protocol functions like a layer that can be easily implemented on top of apps, allowing acquisition of customers. -0.5
    Platform implementation and scaling could face difficulties, as Ethereum is not suitable for this. Therefore, AIRBLOC uses the hybrid-chain architecture that uses Ethereum and ICON. Data validation and the process will be done through Aero Network, which will use ICON. Such a combination seems promising; however, without a working MVP (planned to be in Q3 2018) it is hard to judge on its performance. -1
    There are ptential regulatory barriers in relation to private data protection laws, although the team looks prepared to handle it. -0.5
    I do not like the fact that private sale participants get 45%, even though 30% of 45% will be locked for 3 months as their overall part in the token distribution is rather high. -2
    The project involves a complex inflation model, which involves two tokens. -1

Growth Potential
    Mother company ab108 is already successful in advertising market analysis in Korea. +2
    Whitepaper and documentation are pretty good. +1
    The team is above average with many strong developers. +2
    A lot of strong partnerships like ICON and GS shop, Coinplug as well as several VCs. +2
    Token metrics and distribution are in a good range with a hard cap of 20,000 ETH (around $12 million). +2
    Strong token use case. +1
    A good growth strategy for user attraction. +1
    Hype is there (Telegram has 10,000+ members and lots of people are on the whitelist). +2

Disposition
This is definitely a project to look for. The team has all the necessary experience and knowledge for a successful execution. They leverage on their mother company ab108 and numerous partnerships. They have some obstacles in their way, but they have a clear plan how to overcome them. AIRBLOC receives 7 of 10.
Proof: https://hacked.com/ico-analysis-airbloc/

This is very nice result (7.0/10)!

the user sends the data directly to the main Airbloc service, the advertiser pays a fee to a group of users.

So in second round everybody who whitelisted can take part   ? Am I right  ? And the personal max cap will be 5 eth with gas wars ?

Anyone who passed KYC can contribute round2. min cap is 0.5eth and max cap is 5eth.

round2 is First Come First Serve. Transactions over 40 gwei will be reverted back to your wallet address and the transaction will not pass.

for more details for round2, please check link below. thanks :)

Congratulations on the successful completion of ico :)
im buy
hope to see your on binance ;D

projects that have a bright future ,I think this is a good project.. Looking forward for this project.   

Failed to invest in the project, at 9:01 UTC two of my transactions were rejected. Contract only started accepting 9:04 UTC,but it was already late. Start sales on the site 9:00 UTC.

Because of the delayed start, investors sent 10,000 TX, and burned the ether for about 35K-40K dollars. I am surprised that the team did not compensate for the losses that we suffered because of their fault!

no gas war man, 150k limit and 40 gwei its about 0,45$
are you joking?

He probably counted at the maximum quantity of gas - 150K. In this case, the amount will be about $ 3. But in the failed TX was used only 21K of gas.

Dear Airblocers,

We are aware of your concerns that the smart contract deployment was deployed late by approximately 3 minutes, and the timing was beyond the stipulated timing on the website.

We acknowledge that it was our mistake for not deploying the smart contract at a much earlier time, to make sure that it is deployed according to the time on the website

We acknowledge that we could have ignited our smart contract with a much higher gas limit and GWEI, to beat the Ethereum network congestion at that point in time.

As a result of these mistakes, our smart contract was officially deployed 3minutes later than what was stipulated on the website.

We acknowledge this mistake and apologise sincerely, but be rest assured that this will just be a short blip in Airbloc Protocol’s history.

The crowd funding campaign is just the beginning of our journey. In the months and weeks to come we have plan to make this project global and well adopted.

Using our b2b approach we will be much more well positioned to secure more partners down the road. Once again we apologise.

Our team is dedicated to providing you the best, and only the best.

We will deliver.

Make a small aidrop for those people who could not due to your mistake to buy tokens. It will be a very good decision.

I apologize for my mistake. I didn't count the burned gas correctly. But even so, this is an unpleasant mistake that the team made.

AIRBLOC is definitely a project to look for. For successful execution the team has all the necessary experience and knowledge. They use their parent company ab108 and numerous partnerships. They have some obstacles in their way, but they have a clear plan how to overcome them.

Team and advisory board is experienced... I think if team add some more international advisor it would make it a stronger project. also the token metrics are good checking this AirBloc ICO Review (https://icoexpo.org/airbloc)

Tokens will be unlocked and WILL be listed on centralized exchanges by no later than 13 August 2018. It may, however, be unlocked earlier than 13 August 2018.

This will be the FINAL decision. No further delays will be made.

As a personal data exchange there should be a rules on what kind of data that are worth to get value to trade on.
So what data that are trade able in AIRBLOC?

Airbloc token unlock has been postponed due to market conditions. $ABL tokens will be unlocked and listed on centralized exchanges no later than August 13. Details in the official telegram.

I saw the announcement from the MXC exchange that the ABL trading will be open today. Can I ask when ABL will release coins?

Airbloc is a blockchain-based, decentralized and transparent ad data trading network and a DAPP.

Some apps even illegally monetize personal data to advertising agencies. But sadly, to the data owner, nothing is rewarded in return. Submit your interest data on AIRBLOC via AIRBLOC Main Client Service.

Learning from what mentioned in this tread, the development team member does came from a good background.
They came from some big company that most people know.
So the development of this project should be at it's peak to be success.

If your a company doing well, why come here wanting funding from people here? Want just to milk money by gullible people because everyone else is doing it?

Your project is just wonderful, but I have a few questions for your team. I'm interested in what partnerships do you consider important for the project in the near future? What will happen before the project is fully launched? Do you have any new ideas?

OKEx has postponed Airbloc listing. But the Airbloc team has confirmed that the tokens will be unlocked and listed (on an unannounced centralized exchange) no later than August 13

Their data marketplace is easy to access, their ads are data-driven and effective, and the blockchain platform is tamper and fraud-proof.

very excellence work to all team. all need it to get project. thank team

I heard that September would be a good month for Airbloc. Will there be news to satisfy the holders? What information can you reveal about that?

someone can tell me about this project situation?
They said they get some funding in the past like over 2,300,00 USD Equity funding (series A led by GS SHOP)
and over 40,000,000+ Mobile devices (2/3 of mobile devices in Korea) , how about now?

I think in the future this project will be able to compete with the same theme project, provided all teams always maintain cohesiveness in work, hopefully all can achieve success with maximum results.

Rumored partnership with line, Kakao, and largest credit card company
Let's see what they announce this month

https://twitter.com/AirblocOfficial/status/1036553526309056513

The AIRBLOC blockchain ecosystem built for targeted digital advertising solves quite a number of problems that have been a red-tape to the advancement of the industry including prevention of infringement of personal data rights, elimination of irrelevant, spam, and fraud Ads, restoration of personal data ownership and informatization of ads.

Today there are services or applications that do not have a business model. They work at advertising sites, using their traffic on the spot to generate revenue.

The ICO market is dying, and some ICOs maintain their prices by using the Buyback or burn token. Airbloc is one of the good hold-up projects without using tricks. I appreciate this

hi ... for the present condition it is very draining to create a strategy. all platforms think about it. Good name and responsibility as collateral. this is a difficult time, various strategies are applied to avoid the value of trash on coins. special tricks are in every project.

I'm getting creeped out by the market. But still strongly believe in Airbloc's potential in the long run. Will be using the cheap eths to accumulate more
