   What is Block66 (https://block66.io/)?   


Block66 introduces the first platform where lenders can access a marketplace of vetted borrowers looking for mortgage finance. This marketplace is public, transparent, and highly automated, so lending is streamlined, with lower costs, and lower risks. Each loan is represented as a pool of "proof of loan" (PoL) tokens that can be individually resold to investors, providing lenders with liquidity, and empowering a diverse pool of investors.

Block66 is building a new blockchain-enabled marketplace for mortgages. Institutional and private lenders can use the service to offer loans to a wide range of borrowers, introduced by Block66 broker partners. Through the practical use of smart contracts, loans can be taken from origination to facilitation, quickly and efficiently. All loans are also represented as tradable tokenized securities,providing a liquidity mechanism as standard. The ability to trade fractions of loans, and reduced order and issuing fees makes investing more inclusive, providing an attractive investment vehicle for all manner of investors. Thanks to the use of cryptocurrency, Block66 eliminates the need for a bank account, overcomes geographical lending restrictions and reduces counterparty risk to mere minutes. For borrowers, the transparent and competitive nature of the marketplace will benefit the consumer and give them confidence that they’re getting near enough the best offer achievable.





   The Problem   


The mortgage market in the USA is $9.9 trillion dollars, $32.9 trillion worldwide, and growing but risk averse institutions are reluctant to lend to many creditworthy consumers. Willing small lenders struggle to enter the space at scale. Existing processes and technology are cumbersome and siloed, compounding the problem for borrowers.



   The Solution 





Block66 streamlines the entire mortgage software and operations stack. For brokers, a one-stop-shop, including credit scoring, property appraisals and lender matching. For lenders of all sizes, a sustainable loan pipeline, auditing tool and mortgage securitization platform. For borrowers, a quick, hassle-free way to access the best credit opportunities.

I like Block66 because yes, it's cool that you can buy a house with crypto through its competitors, but in reality - Block66 is a platform that people can and will actually use.

even though, according to the pressures of many people, this will be one of the highest interested projects, but giving loans to institutions and the private sector has different levels of risk, seeing from the solutions that this project thinks, that does not mean it can be the best solution, so I hope, this project has a sophisticated and accountable audit system

The team is filled with people from the mortgage industry, people who have successfully exited FinTech companies, and people with prior crypto experience. This project is a shoe-in in my opinion.

The very idea of such a project also seemed very interesting to me, and I think this idea is quite possible to implement.After all, the platform simplifies the workflow of mortgage software and all related operations.Personally, the team and its idea inspires confidence in me, so I will monitor the development of the platform.

Block66 is shaking up the mortgage industry by providing a fully transparent and comprehensive lending experience.

The upcoming network is a matchmaker connecting borrowers with lenders. No longer will prospective homeowners be solely reliant upon local banks and credit unions.

The mortgage industry has been ripe for disruption for years. After all, there’s been very little change in the industry for years, even with the financial crisis a decade ago. However, that’s set to change with the Block66 a project that is currently in its ICO phase.

ICO Analysis: Block66
Published on September 16, 2018
By Daniel Won
Proof: https://hacked.com/ico-analysis-block66/

Verdict
Below is a breakdown of the risks and growth potential of Block66.

Risks
    MVP will be launched Q1’ 2019. (-1.5)
    Cryptocurrencies’ volatility is quite a big problem for lending platforms. (-1.5)

Growth Potential

    Due to the money lending market’s unrealistic standards and unfair restrictions, so many people’s demands are rejected. Once projects like Block66 earn these people’s trust, this area will be definitely a hot one. (+2)
    The presence of team members experienced in mortgage and real estate markets. (+2)
    Fair token metrics. (+2)

Disposition

The mortgage market is one of the biggest financial markets in the world, but due to institutional lenders’ risk-averseness, many credible people and small companies are not able to get a loan even if there are smaller institutions and private lenders out there willing to make loans. Block66 is the first mortgage-focused lending and borrowing cryptocurrency project, aiming to break down this wall between these two sides. Although it is pretty much established between the cryptocurrency community that lending platforms provide an important use-case, the expected success is not met so far. Block66 has a fair shot at relative success by having team members experienced in mortgage loans and real estate. Yet, since MVP will not be released until next year, it is too early to tell. Block66 receives a 3/10.
