521  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: 80% of ICOs are Scams on: June 15, 2018, 06:29:26 PM
Saw this study on twitter... https://twitter.com/Zeex_me/status/978981735101878272

I've seen a lot of people asking about how many legit ICOs there are, so I thought I'd share

Quote from the article: "The study begins by breaking down ICOs into 6 groups: Scam, Failed, Gone Dead, Dwindling, Promising, Successful. “On the basis of the above classification,” they wrote, “we found that approximately 81% of ICO’s were Scams, ~6% Failed, ~5% had Gone Dead, and ~8% went on to trade on a exchange.”

"Scams were defined by researchers as “Any project that expressed availability of [an] ICO investment (through a website publishing, ANN thread, or social media posting with a contribution address), did not have/had no intention of fulfilling project development duties with the funds, and/or was deemed by the community (message boards, website or other online information) to be a scam.”


DYOR people ...
There are alot of ICO scams out there, they are possible to sort out generally though.

A couple ICOs that haven't launched yet but will in due time, that are worth checking out are Muirfield IP and Fr8 Network.
Fr8 Network's goal is to remove intermediaries from supply chains and bring revenue back to distributors and carriers.
Muirfield is a private equity fund on the blockchain.

I dont think ICOs are going anywhere, anytime soon.
Take a look at a couple of projects, nice communities behind them. I think you'll find them interesting.

I understand that there are many others out there hugely hyped such as Nex, Quarkchain, Sentinal Protocol & these are definitely big multipliers, the contribution & access is tough to get in those ones though. This list is is mainly under the radar that have a working platform ready to go within a few weeks/ months..

Travelblock- Fully functional platform with Resorts, cruises, car rental, flights all paid for with crypto at 30-60% cheaper than expedia by cutting out the hidden fees- 5 ETH investment gets you a free trip anywhere on the platform for 1 week (up to 8 people)

https://www.travelblock.io/

HowDoo- A decentralized social media network, another platform that has an alpha available already with a full platform coming soon- If this reaches steemits market cap its a x80 on investment & I believe it could. They aim to stop the privacy issues that you get with Facebook & pay you for top content with 'uDoos'. Top YouTuber Keith Wareing has just put 50k into this.

https://howdoo.io/

The Acorn Collective-
The Acorn Collective is using blockchain to help founders and startups find access to funding. We provide crowdfunding that is accessible, transparent and more likely to succeed.
It's a huge and growing market in the West and a largely untapped market in most developing countries.
They have recently changed the tokenomics drastically reducing there’s hard cap making the token price very good for some good multipliers on investment.

https://www.aco.ai/

A Worker-
Aworker is a recruitment platform based on Blockchain with an ambitious purpose to disrupt the HR industry. It changes the way of hiring employees via smart contracts. Aworker will reduce costs per hire up to 4 times and increase people's income. The hiring of personnel is one of the most influential markets in the world, its volume is more than $429 billion.

Hello all,

I came across this article that talks about the importance of a community backing a project, how important do you think it is? Do you think they can get by through large marketing budgets instead? and do you agree with the article?

https://medium.com/crowdholding-innovation-platform/why-do-you-need-to-build-a-loyal-community-for-crypto-projects-14b9207608c2

Very important, you should have a community that is passionate and educated on a project.

528  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: how do you choose ICO ? on: June 13, 2018, 06:36:25 PM
There are a lot of factors that go into researching a valuable ICO. IMO you should be looking at the goal that they are trying to accomplish, the problem they are trying to solve, the steps they are taking and willing to take to solve the given problem, what kind of funds they're trying to raise for their project.
Example...if a startup project is trying to raise 400 million, you have to ask yourself, why on earth do they need that much money?

Fr8 Network: May Events in Review
May was a busy month for the Fr8 Network team.
 From attending events to publishing our new whitepaper, we’ve been excited to continue developing the platform and to connect with other movers and shakers in blockchain and logistics. The Fr8 team traveled over 15,000 miles to eight events in three different states this month and here’s a recap of what we’ve been up to.

531  Economy / Economics / Re: Beside Cryptocurrenices where would you invest? on: June 11, 2018, 06:33:55 PM
Private equity. Something like Muirfield IP, their goal is to reinvent and improve private equity investing through the use of blockchain technology.
532  Economy / Economics / Re: Blockchain will help Economy. on: June 11, 2018, 06:31:28 PM
Blockchain was imagined as an approach to guarantee the dependability of the digital currency Bitcoin. It is a genuinely basic idea, an advanced record that record all exchanges that happen inside its framework, much like any firm or individual monitors their funds. The distinction is that the record is freely accessible to all individuals in the framework, making it difficult to adjust records without being recognized. This implies individuals can assume that money related records are totally exact without relying on a reliable outsider like a bank, a legislature or an application to affirm it.
This has expansive ramifications crosswise over numerous businesses. Not exclusively will it cut expenses and enhance proficiency by evacuating outsiders, it additionally considers far more noteworthy adaptability by giving exchanges which are an unchangeable reality, which can encourage the sharing of accounts. For instance, blockchain can enable companions to share protection, or neighbors to have a similar vitality contract and guarantee that everybody pays for precisely what they utilize.
Blockchain will play a massive role in our economy. So long as everything with an issue can be solved in some way with blockchain. Something like Fr8 Network will help solve the fundamental issue of brokers taking most of the revenue in supply chain logistics. They will remove the intermediaries and bring revenue back to carriers and distributors. Something like Muirfield IP, private equity on the blockchain, with a goal to reinvent and improve private equity investing through the use of blockchain technology.

Looks very good !  Do you plan a promotion company ? Bounty company? I think many would like to join the promotion of your project and earn tokens . My best regards.
We appreciate that! We do not have any bounty program running quite yet as the ICO is not active yet. We will update the thread and website once such a thing is running. Thanks!

A Single Source of Truth for Blockchain Enabled Logistics
We're building the efficiency layer and developing the standards protocol
 behind it to solve today's challenges and power the future of supply chain.
A tokenized blockchain marketplace for contracting, financing, and tracking of
 the supply chain industry. Fr8 Network is a set of decentralized applications
 designed to streamline the freight industry’s fractured value chain by
transparently connecting key stakeholders, removing high-cost arbitrage, and redistributing revenue.
Fr8 Network redistributes revenue back to shippers and carriers.


Decentralized- Decentralization prevents intermediaries from controlling
 reputations and price discovery, fueling market efficiencies.

Transparent- Fr8 breaks down walled gardens and enables data to be used
 programmatically, driving value in an open, free, and fair marketplace.

Self-Regulating- Using a proprietary algorithm, Fr8 combines historical performance
 with peer reviews to generate a rating for every user, creating strong incentive alignment.


Our Solution : The Fr8 Protocol
The Fr8 Protocol defines the four necessary components a shipping, credit, or
insurance contract must contain — for any stakeholder in any region. Clear standards
 enable new efficiencies and capabilities for logistics systems worldwide.

Data Standards
Communication standards create a single source of truth regarding a shipment's location,
state, and contents for coordinating multi-party workflows. Documentation standards shift
 the marketplace away from costly physical paper and into the digital era.


Payment Standards
Bitcoin showed the capacity of blockchain technology to transfer value programmatically.
 The Fr8 Protocol for settlement defines payment terms that are enforceable across the
 instances of applications built using the Fr8 Protocol.


Regulatory Standards
Regulatory bodies publish embargoes, tariffs, customs requirements, and more at intervals
 that make it very challenging to remain compliant. Fr8 Protocol
 enables baking this data into the base level of contracts.


Cybersecurity Standards
Fr8 Protocol defines how information systems interact with the blockchain
 requiring different levels of encryption for messages passed to a smart contract.



Origins
Fr8 Network was born from a successful, pre-existing distribution business that
 shipped over $1B in freight over the past 15 years.
 The Fr8 team experienced first-hand the deep inefficiencies of the trucking market:

Shippers struggle to find available carriers while trucks drive almost
 30B empty miles every year. One-third of capacity is wasted
 but businesses struggle with a shortage of drivers!
 The U.S. Trucking business alone is a $700B industry.

Margin is compressed by intermediary brokers who extract fees of $100B
 per year for matching supply and demand by hoarding valuable data on
performance and pricing - A rich target for disruption.



The Fr8 Token
The Fr8 ERC-20 Token speeds up payment remittances, ends double
 spending problems, and incentivizes fragmented stakeholders (shippers, carriers, and brokers)
 to use smart contracts. It can be used to stake transactions, drive efficiency and get
access to a suite of valuable products and earn Fr8 tokens.

What Do We Do?




Why Artificial Intelligence?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is rapidly emerging as a transformative technology.
Recent advances in the availability of computing power and large training data sets have allowed machine
learning algorithms to tackle problems of impressive complexity.
From mastering the game of “Go” to powering voice-controlled assistants, AI is already making an impact.
Yet we only stand at the threshold of a revolution.
The global benefits of AI are estimated to exceed $15 trillion by 2030.
An AI industry is scaling up to deliver these benefits, with a predicted annual growth rate of 52% over the next eight years.
The AI industry alone is expected to generate annual revenue of $58 billion by 2025. However, there are some constraints that are
currently holding back the development and wide distribution of the benefits of AI.


Why a Token?

1. AIGC as a Reward
Users are paid to earn certificates, increasing incentives to learn,
subsequently increasing our pool of AI developers.

2. AIGC as Game Currency
Users then use AIGC as their entry fee for games and challenges,
and receive their rewards in the token if their bot wins a game or tournament.

3. AIGC for Crowdsourcing
Crowdsourcing customers pay micropayments in AIGC to the users
 that collectively participate to solve the problem.

4. AIGC for Recruitment
Recruiters will pay AIGC to access our recruitment system and proceeds
will be shared with users that have opted in to the recruitment platform.

5. AIGC in the Marketplace
Micropayments will be made in AIGC to bots in the Bot Service Marketplace,
 by users who choose to utilize a bot’s AI services.

6. An Immutable Record
The blockchain records users’ course progress, game results and crowdsourcing history,
giving a proof of AI development ability to businesses.



Token Economics

50 million Hard Cap (Token Sale)
Hard cap for the token sale is 50m (excluding bonuses), to be sold over 3 phases.

25 million Community Reserve

25 million Company Pool (Retained)
Retained by us to aid with the sale, e.g. bonuses, token sale costs, bounties, partner compensation, and future fundraising.


Token Sale Phases
May 15th – Phase I Public Sale Opens
The token sale opens to public sale.
50% bonus – cap 1m tokens
