Bitcoin Forum

Welcome to the VIAZ BitcoinTalk ANN Thread. Please feel free to ask any questions. Do note that the bounty mentioned is on the Bounty0x platform, users may not participate here on bitcointalk or reserve spots. This thread is strictly for project discussion.

Heard/read good things about TEZOS blockchain, how will that work in your favor though? will it make it easier for users as oppose to some other blockchain?

How is VIAZ different from other lending platform/projects that are already out in the market? Also would like to know more about the use case/s of your token.

The utility of VIAZ is to provide a decentralized funding platform, connecting its users and acting as a conduit between the cryptosphere and fiat currency.

    - Borrow fiat by collateralizing crypto
    - Lend fiat at higher rate of interest
    - Customize your loans
    - No middleman required
    - No credit check
    - Risk-free funding
    -Fully collateralized and title
      owned loans.

Exactly my thought. I just joined the telegram group and a lot of questions have been answered on this token. I'll still have to study the whitepaper a bit more. There should be a future in here for me.

This implies there will be an integration of centralised and decentralised platform I suppose? At least there will be no middleman as opposed to what we are use in the banking sectors.

VIAZ looks like a promising crypto-based lending platform that seeks to proffer remedies to problems faced by the current lending platforms will have. 
I like the concept but I am yet to see the spark that sets it out of the others.  Is there any unique features that makes it a better lending platform?  What will ensure that Viaz stands out from the pack of lending platforms we have already? Is the team capable of pulling this off?  And why build on Tensor?  There is a lot of better blockchains that this could have been integrated on.

This is exactly what I'm waiting to find out later in the day. There should be a texos blockchain today in Korea. I need to understand why they stand a chance to be a better blockchain than other existing blockchains

A lot of lending platforms have been phased out for a while now. I need to take a critical look at the whitepaper to know if this is one of the projects to invest in in 2019. So we can take a walk with it.

when will you launch the viaz platform? how much revenue from the sale of your tokens at the moment, has the minimum target been reached?

The idea of using crypto as collateral to me is great, this offers a great deal for every crypto lover/supporter to not opt to sell and just get a loan so we can get back our crypto once we got the loan paid. So far the idea behind this project is enticing.

As I looked into your roadmap, I see that the concept started 4 or more years ago. Some would think that you have a slow paced however I think a well-thought project really needs time to develop. I really hope you keep up with your roadmap in the future. At what phase are you now with ICO? or are you having an ICO?

We will be adding new bounties to our program within the next 24 hours!

Please stay tuned for roadmap and whitepaper update!

VIAZ prototype is now live: https://medium.com/@ViazOfficial/prototype-launch-1dfbbafb29c0 (https://medium.com/@ViazOfficial/prototype-launch-1dfbbafb29c0)

Tezos  is a newly designed smart  contract  language  –  Michelson.  This  is  a  strongly typed bytecode  language  with  a very  strict  set  of  operations.  This  forces  extremely  safe  Michelson smart  contracts,  and  could  have  prevented  many  of  the  issues  that  occurred  with  other  smart contracts  (e.g.  the  DAO).  On  top  of  this,  smart  contracts  can  also  be  formally  verified,  allowing developers  to  provide  a mathematical  proof  of  the  outputs  and  changes  a  smart  contract  can make.

I think trying out a new type of blockchain is nice and I'm almost certain this will do well long term based on the features of tezos. It is indeed true that we have seen a lot of blockchain projects but this is bringing a feature different from what we've been seeing all along.

Are the roadmap and whitepaper already available? I would love to read it and perhaps get more details about what we can expect with the project

This is kinda an ambitious project and i am liking it. 5% bounty is way too high though imho. Lot's of free tokens coming and with the bear market going on, there could be lack of buy support.

I think the essence of bounty is for promotion of a project. It is way easier to for a project to hit the ground running with bounty participants doing the advertisements for them. 5% is not too high if you ask me though because there is a lot more a project needs to be visible in the cryptospace

The debit card sure looks cool, just wondering how is it going to be issued to users all around the world? Are you going to have an office to most countries?

Then we just disagree, 5% of the tokens is going to be hell of a sell pressure. You can do marketing without giving up the tokens of your project, you can give up the % of collected eth for example. And just by graphics, what made me take a second look of this was the sexy logo. That markets itself if done right.

Offices in almost every crypto friendly country is great but is not necessary. Those debit cards can be shipped and this is more cost efficient in my opinion. They just have to look for a trust worthy courier or better have a code to activate the card once received.

All information is available on our website viaz.io and this thread has clickable links to whitepaper etc

If you guys have any questions let me know

We will have the debit cards shipped. First we will finalize a fiat partner then we will move towards debit cards

Hello, Will it be necessary to KYC procedure in order to sign up for your platform or will it be possible to remain anonymous?

@laissaoui: well, investment in solid project is always good. Learn to weed out the scams. This market has only one way to go and thats up

@santputra: Staking and Baking, Profit share, Debit cards, Automated reminders, Decentralized P2P funding platform, Key retrieval and Financial blockchain. More details on this will be provided in the new whitepaper update will keep you posted.

@rizzy: KYC is important its a must.

@harikesh101: No I don't think so this space is better unregulated but we need quality people in this space first i.e business people. We will tackle each problem one at a time as it comes

@asimaslam: Thanks buddy really appreciate it.

@squall73: Teztalk that will be held in silicon valley on 23rd March by Tim Draper.

What will happen if you do not reach 100% of your sales target? Would you still be running the project?

I don't think so. I already know a few which has been successfully launched on tezos a while back

@harikesh101: We dont have any pre-ico. Our ico starts on March 30th

@exsexs: Our stop cap is 5 million lets say we get to 4 million we as a team will see if its possible to get the project going with that money. If we can we will start but if we cannot then we will refund the money. Also so far no project has been lauched on tezos.

Hope that's enough for now :)

@sepriadi: Please see the above and we have a article section on our website you can refer to that

@xydyll: We are the first major dapp on tezos with a working MVP. But there are others out there now

I think the link is very clearly given along with their profile information. Do have a look

Look for this information on the website. There must be something in the buy tokens section

the site states that "VIAZ is located at Cayman Islands"

Cabinet bounty? You will have a huge number of bots on the platform. Probably one of the worst advertisements you can take. By itself, the project has the right to success, but tezos are not the best choice imho.

Why are you so negative about bounty ? This looks like a good option of advertising, covering a large number of people

@squall73: Thats something that we cannot predict or guarantee

@exsexs: Thanks for your help

@RoastPotatoes: Our plan is to start with real estate backed loans for monetization. We want to start with stable coins like tezos, to begin with instead of implementing all of them. We are learning from the previous P2P platforms and improving on their mistakes. We currently don't have any channel like that follow us on twitter and other media's for information.

https://github.com/viazofficial

I don't think I have seen a tezos-based project yet, I am sure tezos will be more popular, can it be the next Ethereum? VIAZ also looks good, I will follow this one.

And tell whether documents-such as the identity card are required?Is there an insurance Fund for force majeure.?
Let me explain,for example, that I want to participate as a partner in lending-what guarantees can there be in case of insolvency of clients?

@akx1971: Yes you get a share of the profits. Also, we will have airdrops and you will get discounts by using VIAZ tokens.

@cryptobaro: Yes we are the first major DAPP. It very well can be the next Ethereum and on its track to be better. Thanks alot let me know if you have questions and dont forget to join our telegram to join the discussions. https://t.me/ViazOfficialAnnouncements

@Vazan25: Whenever someone borrowers money he will put his crypto as collateral. We will also be starting with real estate backed loans so the lender is safe. On top of that borrowers will have the option to put in credit scores, pay stubs etc to get better rates and terms on loans by the lender. Hope that answers that question.

@ipnl: They will be burnt.

@mezisto: Learning from the previous P2P platforms mistakes and going about it in a different approach with less volatility coins and real estate backed loans.   

What is the major advantage of using the Tezos platform? And how can you prove that this project has real estate backing?

@Twinkledoe: Tezos is built on OCaml, a functional programming language used for other financial based projects, Tezos implements a delegated proof of stake consensus method, Tezos is also looking to implement a self-amending ledger, allowing XTZ holders to vote on improvements and changes to the blockchain source-code, reducing the risks of a fork, Tezos has also designed a new smart contract language – Michelson. This is a strongly typed bytecode language with a very strict set of operations. This forces extremely safe Michelson smart contracts and could have prevented many of the issues that occurred with other smart contracts (e.g. the DAO). On top of this, smart contracts can also be formally verified, allowing developers to provide a mathematical proof of the outputs and changes a smart contract can make. On top of that recently 1B USD worth of real estate will be tokenized on Tezos more info in this article:

https://prn.to/2GV41CW

Not the project (VIAZ Platform) but we will start with real estate development projects so lenders get into projects that a real estate backed.

If i’m not wrong, they’ll be distributed in a month after the end of the ICO

Just minimum $100 USD

Everyone decides for himself. If you are not ready to lose all your money - do not invest. Investing in cryptocurrency is a very high risk, you need to understand this.

https://beta.bounty0x.io/hosts/viaz

Your ICO comes in the time that the market in falling down. But I see your professional work. I will take a look more closer to your project

I fully agree that today the market is falling, tomorrow it is soaring up. It's a kind of lottery

WOw! Glad to see a new project based Tezos. Sure that it have a future.

It will be 100$ equivalent to the BTC price at that time 

Yes we do once we are currently in the process of finalizing our FIAT banking partner. This is definitely in the future plans

@ViazOfficial

What is the deal with the signature bounty campaign on Bounty0x.io as they are saying that the campaign is over and the campaign description says (Dec 17, 2018 - Feb 28, 2019) ?
The problem is that I cant submit the Google Doc with the links to my posts for the entire campaign. Here is the link: https://beta.bounty0x.io/bounties/1245924
Can I share it in here or what is the best thing to do? Thanks!

This is great news, but it would be great if Coingate or some similar service were added so that we can pay with any currency. For example: XRP, EOS

As far as I know, this method of payment ICO is not accepted, only in a particular currency, and not through the services

Tezos is promising in its technology, smart contracts, as an analogue of ether, for example. The fact that this project is on this platform and makes the project unique

https://viaz.io/documents/Viaz-Whitepaper_ru.pdf

The prototype is launched. You can check it out at https://app.viaz.io Let me know if you have any other questions.

$100 is the minimum there is no max and tokens can be purchased between 30th March till 30th September. Depending on the time you can get between 20% to 5%.

Staking and Baking, Profit share, Debit cards, Automated reminders, Decentralized P2P funding platform, Key retrieval and Financial blockchain. More details on this will be provided in the new whitepaper update will keep you posted.

The project really can become a very convenient platform for working with digital currency and Fiat money in the future . Project team well done .

you check the internet again, i still go to normal

Hi,dev, I want to know if there is a signature campaign, I think this a good way to make an announcement on this forum.

Thanks really appreciate the kind words

Exchangers are published only after the ICO

Protect investors from what? It is your task to protect yourself by choosing projects that have a sustainable concept.

for example, from token theft or personal information leakage

why only English? Who prevents use in Russian languages? Just watch the language on the site and the documents will be available in Russian

We are going to have 3rd party custodian to handle all of that to make it secure.

I think it's a very large sum for a young coin! But it will definitely have a great impact on trading

I can consider 40BTCs as a large sum of money already.
A developer can do a lot from this amount.
If I am the dev, I will not use this for listing purposes.
Instead, I will devote it to fast track the development of the platform.
Without progress in your project, how can you make your coin valuable in the market?
Better see a tangible output rather than pure talk.

I fully agree that the development of the platform should come first. Add to the exchange will be when the platform is ready and the coin is the more popular

KYC is one of the things we need to qualify before purchasing the coin, but one thing i want to confirm when is the exact dates for the crowd sales to follow their channels in order to get updated information from the company. One thing i want to ask did they mentioned anything about whether they are going to accept the credit card for purchases?

This is the Russian whitepaper. https://viaz.io/documents/Viaz-Whitepaper_RU.pdf

We will be updating it in the coming days. Let me know what you think about it

The usual mistake of many projects. Unless, they have no intentions of building their platform.
Most of them rush to be listed in very expensive exchanges and later on, no one want to buy their coin anymore.
If their coin has value to start with, a medium exchange is more than sufficient to address the trading side.
They can always go to a more sophisticated one if they have already proven their use in crypto.

Your absolutely right we will put that money towards monetization of the platform. We will have a fiat partner soon and then moving forward want to get an insurance company on board too.

Theoretically, the demo platform is released, often not before the ICO, of course. some, if I'm not mistaken, launched their alpha version before the start

This is our prototype https://app.viaz.io/

This is the link to the demo video that shows you how to access alphanet tezzies to put as collateral : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryjbELtTDYw

Let me know if you have any questions 

Now it is very difficult to assemble a hard caps, the problem is not in the project or in bad marketing, the overall negative situation in the market is doing its job.

Everything works fine for me and opens correctly. Check your browser. Perhaps you need to clean the cache or cookies.

We have a working prototype this is the link https://app.viaz.io/

VIAZ is made on the tezos blockchain. We will be looking in the future to add bitcoin to be used as collateral but as of now its just tezos that we support.

It is necessary to completely change the principles of the ICO. This scheme has shown its non-viability. 99% of scams is unacceptable for investors. We need something new-ICO 2.0 8)

Only no one needs such deal. If to put on outsourcing development and rolling out of code that they stupidly can copy and go prove that it is your ingenious project and concept. Everywhere where there is no full control over the development there is a chance to get the money and lose your idea

Our funds raised will be held with a third party custodian for the security of the investors. As well as our tokens are locked for a year. Once this news is finalized will let you guys know. Our ICO is 2.0 we will take all the right steps to ensure that VIAZ becomes successful

That is interesting idea - to build platform om Tezos. I first time see that.

I think this is just in case to write. Recently, there are a lot of fakes of a wide variety. Write with fake accounts of administrators, create sites almost like a blueprint. In short I advise everyone to check a hundred times before you make the payment and be on our guard. And hunters freebie is something a lot of divorced

I'm actually just an observer, and I'm interested in all the ICO projects, but I really like VIAZ. the price is ridiculous, the idea is great, there are no competitors at least, there is really a huge potential for growth.. but here I will hold at least six months, to merge when entering the exchange such tokens at once is very stupid

It is very interesting that VIAZ choose to launch their token over the Tezos platform, they are not the first but this shows that they choose the new more advance tech over Ethereum. Good approach in my opinion!

But that is your own responsibility to prevent hackers from stealing your tokens. How should the tea protect investors from theft?

How can an investor protect their data, for example, from DDos attacks ?

That equals to USD 4,890,000. That money in tokens is set aside for bounty/marketing. We don't want to give away too much to cause a big dump once we launch.

What kind of answer do you expect from them if you ask how they are going to protect you from token theft? They will just answer that they use state of the art security.

Yes, all projects are long-term if you want to see X5+ ,and in the short term because of the abundance of any coins maximum X3 and then only those projects that are really interesting to society. I think this is 1 of those projects

competition is growing and more and more projects are being launched on the tezos blockchain. but if you compared with the communities for example eth or tronor eos the chance of success is lower here.

We have talked about this in our Whitepaper. We recently updated our roadmap that should outline the value of holding tokens.

Currently we are registered in the cayman islands 

We have an explainer video on the site that will help you understand what the platform is all about. We need the money to continue to grow the platform as you can clearly see in our roadmap. To achieve all these things we need the funds.

What kind of theory is that? That such a can happen, that negatively affect..?! It was your idea, or you were told..?!  If demand increases, the price is unlikely to fall

Naturally, you should not even get into the ICO that collects more than 100M easier to stay with the ether and the profit from the growth of the ether will be much better than from the growth of the token itself. Do not think that something epic out

This is not only possible but will be. Anyone on the market sees new projects lose 90% of the price in the first few weeks. Only finance can show profit X10 and more in such fall market  8)

We have updated our whitepaper version 1.3 released on our website.
Things that we updated:
1.) Why VIAZ?
2.) ICO Details
3.) Utilization of funds pie chart
4.) Updated Roadmap

Link to whitepaper: https://viaz.io/documents/Viaz-Whitepaper_EN.pdf …

If you have any other questions let us know.

The ICO will last for 6 months. Tokens will be distributed one month after the ICO ends. Yes it is definitely a long term project.

If the ICO lasts for 6 months, I don't think a lot of people will consider contributing early as their funds are not accessible anymore and subject to volatility.

True that we will see what works best and make changes accordingly. Right now our focus is the fiat banking partner.

The idea is great, but there are doubts about the project team. Although in Telegram group the project more popular. Therefore, I think that the ICO will be successful

And what doubts do you have about the project team? What are you confused about?

Well, the project team is like, take the same 0xproject. At the helm of some of the young guys that look like ordinary students, but nevertheless, virtually no promotion has collected $ 24 million. Sometimes they invest not only in the team, but also in the idea

The organizers of the project now have only an idea. In fact, they offer to sponsor their attempt to develop a new payment system

I do not agree with you in my opinion the platform looks decent and worthy of investment which asks. There are projects that look great and then do not collect anything

Ok that's good. As for the duration of the ICO, you could guarantee a rate for BTC and ETH contributions, but that could put you at risk if the market drops further. Anyway, just speaking from my experience that I refrain from investing when my funds are tied up for half a year or so.

That's a valid point we will look into it and see what can be done so that the funds are not locked for half a year.
