Title: [ANN] VERITAS - Decentralised, Censor-Free Platform for Journalists
Post by: mashcom on December 12, 2016, 09:16:28 PM

" We are building a Journalism platform which ensures the quality of a trusted journal without censorship by giving you the control. "


To make everything possible the core will need differents essential features:



- Fully decentralized platform
- Open source code
- Automated payments
- Community-based validation systems
- Encrypted documents storage

VERITAS CLIENT

We will build all the apps needed to make VERITAS available on any platform.
To make all members unique we will make it as personalizable as possible.
In addition, an API of the core will be released and that will allow any individual to build an app based on it.

For example, a writer could make an app focused on their own journal and increase the view and the profit of it.


VALIDATORS


Validators are foundamental users for VERITAS, as the quality of the content is guaranteed by them.
In addition, they will also have the role of organising the platform by selecting categories for every article.
Every person can easily become a validator for free, and start earning money with the new quality validation system.


WRITERS

The platform shall be profitable for writers as they have lots of ways to earn money:


By publishing articles for free the platform shall share profits based on readers appreciation
By selling articles
By creating a journal and selling a plan (weekly, monthly, yearly)
By other member donations
By building and selling a personalised app based on their journal


READERS

Without a good community of readers VERITAS can not be profitable, so we do our best to build an interface that enable VERITAS to be easy to use for everybody.
As the community validates all the articles, readers can access uncensored contents without getting caught in dangerous or unwanted information.

nice idea but since the U.S. is 50/50 split all articles would be approved - at least in the U.S.

Nice graphics but looks like a get-money-quick-scheme. White paper is full of blah-blah of high level, does not mean anything, a high school student can write it this way easily. Nothing concrete (like algorithms) is there. So it is almost certain that it is a crap does not worth anything.

ICO (meaning qiock money for "dev")? no thanks.

Not to defend this bum but changing the email on his own account is not a bulletproof of wrongdoing.

hmm, nice to see you raising concerns :)
ya its generally a bad sign to trust ANYONE involved in account sales in any form, just an integrity thing.
I will watch for you to delist if this ends up looking sketchy upon further investigation.

 btw, I notice you trying harder to do your part to not list scam projects, know that i for once notice the effort  ;)

You have a good intention but you must clarify this in your announcement post,you have a good intention ,but members are reacting here,based on their past experiences from the past newbie account that launch their ICO if you are transparent,people will see it.

First impression last,the guy who posted it has a red tag on it but anyway since he stated that they commissioned him to post in their behalf,
The plan and the roadmap looks good,I don't think there's already a coin for this kind of project so we'll keep an eye for this one.

Since Veritas is already a technology company operating worldwide, what do you plan on doing when they ask you to stop using their name?

Veritas mean "Truth" in Latin language, so I do not think that they have control of this word .

however, we are "Veritas Platform" on our website.

VERITAS TEAM UPDATE 27.12.2016 - VOTE SYSTEM AND CLIENT

VoteSystem:

We are currently developing a server-less application for Mist, this will be the main function vote system for veritas

The concept is to allow the Veritas Community to vote on anything they want, and the app will tally the total ether/veritas balance of all those who agree or disagree with the article

https://github.com/veritasplatform/Votelog/blob/master/README.md



User Identification:

Using Mist, we have no information about the user, until the user decides to reveal itself to the app. if you want to query what you know about, simply call getaccounts:

https://github.com/veritasplatform/IdentifyUser/blob/master/README.md


This will allow the user to have access only to centralized authenticators, like two factor authentication or cloud backup, and to smart contracts, and allowing a few trusted friends to give you access to an account

Voting:

Once you have the contract as an object, voting is added form javascript: that will pop up a mist transaction panel where the user can check their info :

https://github.com/veritasplatform/vote/blob/master/README.md


Contract:

to count up all the votes we need to watch the contract events and see the votes , to do that we run this function :

https://github.com/veritasplatform/Calculate-Vote/blob/master/README.md




we are currently developing this from the example of stake voice from eth forum . (work like a charm)


hope you like the system and see what we can do with this.

enjoy



this is an alpha gui-like of veritas from mist :

You don't see future on freedom of speech? or from the power of the informations based on the blockchain?

Put a community in a system to validate informations and get rewarded by their Participation  is the future . Maybe not our future. but we think that is an important step for the blockchain

This project is not taking off,marketing is absent in this coin,as you can see there were only two pages and not generating interest,you need to think your marketing especially that you are holding an Ico,better make this a pow coin instead of an ICO one.

They lack more exposure to the community, they need a signature campaign to make the ICO bigger. If they can deliver, surely it will be a great project

Hi Veristas  Platform, Could you pls post some updates about what's going on with this project?
The ICO ended and investors have not heard anything; we need to know what's going on?
When will investors be able to remove their tokens from the ICO site; which exchanges this coin will be on, web wallet/wallets etc.
