2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / ICO-2 This week, Analyzing SELFLLERY on: March 24, 2018, 11:56:28 PM
Greetings everyone and welcome to my second thread of analyzing ICO's, I will be analyzing different ICO's with great potential of succeeding and I am not talking about Pumpin-&-Dumping, I am talking about real investment, I will try to share thoughts regarding different ICO's whitepapers and potential plans, I will also point out different ICO's which can be potential scams. Lets start, This week I will be analyzing everything regarding the Selfflery ICO or most known as (YOU) token, I will try to answer the most fundamental questions needed when analyzing an ICO (my personal opinion), dont forget to share some love, and if you do not agreed with something please let me know and I will be more than happy to make amendments. Let's begin.

What does it do?

Whitepaper: "SELFLLERY is a multifunctional social platform that allows you to receive rewards in cryptocurrency for social activities related to publication and distribution of visual content. The SELFLLERY reward system uses ERC20 tokens built on Ethereum blockchain technology.", now this project its quite interesting since, it will kind of make a platform where you can buy media content on demand, something similar to shutterstock mixed with fiverr and ebay, I believe this project will have as audience mostly the young people who are interested on making a Gig here and there and earn cryto-currencies on the way, I believe the project lacks few things that are not very well explained in detail on the whitepaper, like for example future goal of the company in their roadmap and others, even though its lacking few things I like the fact that they will donate 10% of their earnings to a charity of choice and aswell providing the same option to the sellers, that will bring a bunch of benefits to social communities, so thats a top point for me.


Does it really need a blockchain?

Whitepaper: "Therefore, SELFLLERY rewards such users with YOU tokens. The YOU token entitles its holders access to paid services on the SELFLLERY platform, to make purchases in the SELFLLERY marketplace and stock gallery, donate to charities, and make internal transfers and withdraw tokens to Ethereum wallets." To be honest, from my point of view, this project doesnt really need a blockchain approach I believe this things could be done different without the need of a blockchain, instead they could go for a complex database, to my understanding this project just needs enough founding for it to start working so that will be a ( - minus) for me, since I dont really see the need of using blockchain to create a digital marketplace.

Can the team execute?

Yes, I believe they can, this is not a really complex project, its just a escrow kind of marketplace, where the main currency of exchange will be YOU tokens, similarly to any other kind of service like SCHPOK, Ebay, Fiverr ... and the list goes on

What is the money being used for? and how will the token allocation be distributed?

When analyzing an ICO I always like to see how will they spend the investor's money or in what things it will be used on, in Selfllery case, they will split it this way:

The Token Allocation:

Buyers: 60%
Reward Fund: 12%
Reserve Fund: 10%
Team: 10%
Advisers: 3%
Bounty Program: 1%

Links I have used for this research.

Whitepaper: https://selfllery.com/wp/selfllery_whitepaper_en.pdf

I do not endorse Selfllery at all in any way nor I participate with them in any way, I would always recommend you to do your own research before investing in an ICO, If you have an ICO which you might be interested on and would like me to analyze give me a shout (since I need new material to analyze.)
3  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ICO-1 This week, Analyzing Celsius. on: March 23, 2018, 12:26:58 PM
Very good analysis, but very disappointed that you are just here to promote Celsius project, after weeks  of opening this thread you have not even mentioned any other project with so many good projects in the space that need more visibiltiy
Thank you for the compliment, I wish I could be promoting the Celsius project, to be honest I havent even invested on it yet, but I am planning to invest after the release they have already gathered $50M , which gives me a good sign regarding on how the company is working, I will be mentioning other projects quite soon, so stay tuned (it is a bit hard to find good projects out there, I was very impressed with this one by the fact that you get paid to hold your tokens).


Hello everyone,

other good thing that i heard about this project is that it's competitors (like SALT and LEND) have problem with liquidity and CEL will use some part of it's token sale to have a good initial liquidity.
Also, there are many angry users with lend because they are treated like scammers and don't receive their tokens ( https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2078686.1800 ).
Indeed, I believe this will be a great ICO.


This is very well written article. It's quite impressive. One more question: so how do token holders get benefits?

According to their whitepaper, you earn tokens by holding tokens and by lending crypto currency.
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / AI technology block-chain based? on: March 16, 2018, 01:00:13 PM
I was surfing the web, when suddenly I encountered this ICO which will literally change the game on AI - Block-chain environment, the name of the ICO is called Sentigraph, it seems like a project that just started, but I believe it to be one of the most interesting ICO's I have seen so far to be honest, and apparently they will be even using IBM technology on their app.

what is sentigraph?, "Sentigraph is a system that provides predictive insights aimed at improving future events based on emotion data obtained by analyzing users’ reactions in a given event leveraging Artificial Intelligence and blockchain. A suitable use case is analyzing twitter hashtags using IBM’s Watson and an algorithm to compute the graph index, gi. The system can analyze equity markets, various review systems, social media, politics, healthcare, precog, and security via related twitter hashtags."

Also their Use case scenario really caught eye, "https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JuLS9GREzuv5QtetxkYP40PP50KjxkGSMRTvGhmE4Dw/edit"

I hope there is people out there interested in this kind of technology just as I am, I would really like to talk a bit more about this, for some reason I see this product even used as a police aid to capture potential treats.

Lets get the thread rolling.

5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / ICO-1 This week, Analyzing Celsius. on: February 26, 2018, 09:22:03 PM
Greetings everyone and welcome to the first thread of analyzing ICO's, I will be analyzing different ICO's with great potential of succeeding and I am not talking about Pumpin-&-Dumping, I am talking about real investment, I will try to share thoughts regarding different ICO's whitepapers and potential plans, I will also point out different ICO's which can be potential scams. Lets start, This week I will be analyzing everything regarding the CELSIUS-ICO or most known as (CEL), I will try to answer the most fundamental questions needed when analyzing an ICO (my personal opinion), dont forget to share some love, and if you do not agreed with something please let me know and I will be more than happy to make amendments. Let's begin.

What does it do?

Celsius is the only crypto wallet designed with features that allow members/users to use their crypto-currency coins as a collateral to get a loan in USD dollars and to earn interest while lending your crypto-currencies. Celsius goal is very interesting and good in many ways, there is also a big gap in the market for something like Celsius, it will be interesting to see crypto-holders gain interest just for holding their crypto-currency on the Celsius-wallet, it will not only be beneficial for lenders but also for borrowers to be able to borrow money whenever is needed.

Does it really need a blockchain?

Indeed, According to what I have read in their whitepaper "they not only need a blockchain but a ledger technology, it requires consensus and global footprint of coin holders in order to really gain traction", is it really necessary?, the answer is yes, all the loans which Celsius-Wallet will issue will be gathered from thousands of individual coin holders, that could be switched at any time, only a smart contract capable of tracking and paying in micropayments can handle this kind of complexity.

The open Ledger: Whenever a credit is issued or members borrow coins to others, the system will employ the consensus to issue and track loans from funds given by members/investors.

Consensus: Whenever credit is issued or members borrow coins from others the Celsius-wallet will employ the consensus given to Celsius by members/investors.

Global Footprint: Celsius is building a global decentralized marketplace which allows lenders from all over the world to earn interest regardless of their base currency or local laws which they operate under.

Can the team execute?

Yes, they can, the reason I believe this is because of the Founder and CEO Alex Mashinsky. I have read the numerous projects which he was able to succeed on (he was able to found seven New York City-based startups and two of New York Citys top 10 venture-backed exits), he has a wide knowledge of building business from the ground as well as the experience and contacts in the industry,

What is the money being used for? and how will the token allocation be distributed?

When analyzing an ICO I always like to see how will they spend the investor's money or in what things it will be used on, in Celsius case, they will split it this way:

The Money Allocation;

Loan Reserves: $54,840,625
Research + Development: $10,062,500
Lender's Insurance Pool: $10,062,500
Operations + Management: $7,546,875
Legal + Regulatory: $6,540,625
General + administrative: $6,540,625
Sales + Marketing: $5,031,250

The Token Allocation:

Presale: 40%
Crowdsale: 10%
Treasury: 27%
Team: 19%
Partners: 2%
Advisors: 2%

I will point out something special about each allocation, I can tell you straight away that their "Money" allocation is nearly perfect, even though many people might believe that Sales+Marketing is one of the most important things in every company, the Research + development and Lender's insurance Pool, in this case, takes the top priority, the fact they have invested a good bunch of money on Research and development tells you straight that the idea behind this project is not something that was brought from one day to another, but it shows you a strong process of meditation and research they have done in order to adapt the Celsius-wallet to the needs of the customers/users.

Regarding the "Token" Allocation, I couldn't stop noticing the fact that they didn't go for "Bounty Campaign" or "Marketing pyramid scheme" this tells quite a lot of good things about the Celsius Project because bounty programs are very very bad news when promoting an ICO, bounty campaigns indirectly pay bounty hunters to drive investments through artificial hype as well as wasting big part of the tokens on paying bounty hunters.

Celsius Advertising and Status:

Celsius advertising is not poor but its not massive, I have made the time to scan/crawl google for Celsius, and their advertising is average, to me personally the fact that they are not shoving ads on my face about their ICO in popular crypto-website is something good, since its clear to see that their product doesn't really need any type of Crazy and Spammy advertising, their ICObench rating looks very high compared to advertised ICOs, they have also passed their KYC which is good, since the process of Knowing your Customers its one of the most important parts when starting an ICO, you dont want any type of hacker-thief to invest their stolen crypto-currencies on your ICO.

Other Important information about the ICO:

Symbol: CEL
Category: Finance
Platform: ERC20
Crowdsale: March 15th, 2018
Total Token Supply: 1,000,000,000
Total Tokens for Sale: 500,000,000
Accepted Currencies: ETH, BTC & USD
Presale token Price: $0.20
Crowdsale Token Price: $0.30
Soft Cap: $15,000,000
Target Cap: $100,000,000

6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / My first and hopefully Last investment - HELP ! on: January 14, 2018, 07:27:12 PM
Greetings everyone,

I happen to be quite new (as a user) in here but not that new (since I happen to read this forum nearly everyday), I would like to start by saying that I have never done any type of investment on the crypto-currency market but I have few experiences when trading and at doing normal payments and so on, recently after reading and reviewing about so many alt-coins out there in the market, I came to a point where I felt very confused, angry and stressed because many of this alt-coins promise so many things but after reviewing their success is pretty upsetting since most of them had to stop and many of the investors who believed on such projects lost their valuable money & investment.

After a good 5 months research I have encountered many but many good project ideas, but few really captivated my attention, since my goal or resolution for this 2018 year is to actually be able to make crypto-currency exchanging my full-time job I have decided to invest in at least 3 alt-coins and perhaps make a living from them.

One of the Alt-coins I am most interested is BABB (I believe the pre-sale just closed but I am looking to enter into the main sale anyways) there are more than 3k subscribers for the pre-sale I believe, they have a great customer service over the telegram app. Each coin is 0.0012$, meaning that from 1$ I will get 120BAX token, now I am looking to invest around 3k$ into this project, since there is many people actually interested on it, and they will take the same route as Western Union, and I know what you are thinking, "but there is many other alt-coins out there that do similarly the same thing" but for me is the fact that this is an ICO and they will be able to provide you with a UK bank account, you will be able to send and receive money, as well as loan money to others through the app and exchange it for FIAT.

Now my question is, what do you guys think about this coin, what would you do if you were in my position, would you take the chances and invest into it or not? please feel free to criticize the token I would like your most honest support.

'BABB is a World Bank for the micro-economy; a decentralized banking platform that leverages blockchain, AI, and bio-metrics technologies to offer anyone in the world access to a UK bank account for peer-to-peer financial services.
On the BABB platform, everyone is a bank. Once you open a BABB account, you have all the same powers that banks have. You have ownership of, and control over, your money. Through the BABB app, you can connect instantly with all other account holders and participate in peer-to-peer financial services. Lend to and borrow from one another; exchange currencies; and deposit and withdraw cash, all via self-executing smart contracts. (‘Kian AmaZix’ team member of BABB telegram community.)'
