how will you contend with unfair reputation?
This is something i hope they already kept into acxount because there will be all sort of manipulations otherwise I already asked a similar question. It is something they will need to have a solution for. The more important such a reputation is, the more ways people will try to find to abuse or manipulate the system. We have several stages of reviews verification: - At first, we are using an AI machine moderation, that analyses more then 50 parameters, such as tone analyzer, IP, geolocation, reviews frequency etc. - Some of the reviews automatically declined by the system, some of them will get manual filtration. - Second important part - is user rating in the system - it consists of overall score, age of account, number of ratings given for others. If user has low rating or if its newbie in the system, the more filters are provided to his/her rating. - Third part is that we are limiting the number of rating, which can post one account per day/week/month. It depends of user rating. During pre-alpha-testing all of these factors showed 95% of fraud detection. But this is only pre-alpha and we are still working with the algorithms Smiley 95% is a lot considering that they wer pre alpha tests, what is your approach to get to near 100% ? It's possible to reach the 99% mark? I'm surprise that the results are already that high, the algorithms is very developed. When the finish it should de close to 100%. To tell the truth - we cannot guarantee 100% protection, like no one does. But we’ll do your best to reach about 99%. Speaking about deleting reviews from blockchain - we won’t delete them, their will be disabled in users profile and marked as fraud. I like this approach, I think that eventually they will write good algorithm of reviews verification - although 100% it's will not give result, because scammers also always find new ways for manipulation.

Hi. What's your soft/hard cap? what will be token price in the ICO?
I didn't find such informations on the website. All I know is the crowdsale will be started at 15 January 2018. I wish they will add the complete infos on the site soon! We have covered these questions on our website in FAQ https://livestars.io/faq and also in our whitepaper. Our hard cap is $5,000,000 , soft cap - $500,000. Thanks for answering. The project is great and 5M are easy to reach. When the app will be fully functional? I think yes, 5 million is possible to achieve - and it would be great. I hope what in marketing question - livestars team has good strategy. Because I believe that marketing is the key to success.

is there an official topic or where feedback?
I don't know what you mean by that? You want to raport some issues with this project or just discuss about it? In the future for report bugs, but for now i want ask questions to developers. it would be more convenient if they were at this forum. I think the best and more effective will be use their telegram channel: https://t.me/ModulTradeIO

where will user info be stored? what if I delete my account from the sphere, would it be deleted from the DB also?
that's actually a great question. on facebook your pics won't be deleted even if you delete the account. they'll still be stored on their servers. Yes, it is one of the annoying parts of facebook. You can't delete you account you can only freeze it. And even some people die, you just can't delete his page too. I think in the Sphere is also impossible to delete the history. It will be written in stored in the chain. And about the profile deletion an interesting question. I agree that Facebook, despite its popularity, has many disadvantages - one of them, I don't like pop-up dialog boxes. Sphere can be good alternative.

a discount of 90% is frightening, for those who believe in the project and wish it development. for sure many will do with tokens in such a way that they will be merged right after iсo
There will be frozen period after the ICO, therefore the price after ICO will be stable because of impossibility to sell it after the ICO. Moreover, 90% of discount, you can get only if you baked more then 100 ETH at the first day and this is only 5% of tokens issue with frozen period. So, there is nothing to worry about it. still seems a bit excessive. I don't think I've ever seen such a large discount. Honestly I don't appreciate a such large discount, I'm a newby in the crypto land but I understand how the traditional markets work and it sounds me a bit unclear. We'll see. It's just to incentivise big investors. But the problem is that sometimes it occurs that big investors dump their coins after a project hits exchanges. There will be a frozen period to prevent dumping Oh, that's a good idea. Now I'm sure that I can put some money into this project especially that REPU looks great I agree, this is impressive discount, but if this project will be successful, this investors will receive huge profits - courage and confidence, sometimes can help to win jackpot.

Pre-ICO is sold out, great work team!
Four days before the scheduled end, that's totally awesome. I hope the public sale will be as successful. I just wish it would start right now, so we don't have to wait till January 15 to invest. Haha, me too. But then again, it is fair that there's a time interval between presale and public sale, so the early investors really deserve their bonus, since they take (even just a bit) more risk that's true, early adopters should be rewarded. they take the highest risk when going in capital ventures. Exactly, but nowadays you see presales immediately follwed up by public sales and then it's hardly justifiable to give much greater discounts. Think of the Filecoin sale for example Well, who risks nothing - gains nothing. I think in this project the risks are minimal, so nothing prevents early birds will making the maximum profit

Pre-ICO is sold out, great work team!
Wow that was really fast!!! This means the ICO is going to be a succes too! They don't have a unique project but they have a unique feature (one kyc and using it on all projects exchanges) drawing people to it. So probably their ico perform well too. i am getting ready for the main sale. like you said, it has just a plain feature, brought up in the right time where kyc is nowadays needed, thus hitting the jackpot/bullseye of every investor How about the price per token during ico, will it be a lot more than the pre-sale, is it still worth investing during ico? Wow, SelfKey pre-sale has ended four days ahead of schedule - this is excellent result, my congratulations for the team. I think IСO will be with the same dynamics!

How can I buy the tokens of your project after ICO?
definitely on etherdelta for sure, but i think the will be listed on some other exchanges too. depends on the devs. I think this will have a big userbase after their service is launched. At least in a few months big exchanges should be very possible for the project. Every project list their token in some exchanges after ICO, they can't tell you which, its a normal policy from exchanges, to not reveal which exchange it will get listed at, or run the risk of not being listed, so never ask a project which exchange they will be at, they won't tell you. I think the priority at the moment is product development, with which developers are coping well, even against the background of blocking the main part of the funds! There will be a demand for a product (and it will) - there will be demand for a token, it's easy! I admire this team, they were able to provide alpha version with limited budget. It's worthy of respect! , I think these guys implement all their ambitious plans!

I signed up at the website 2 months ago and I still have not received a verification email. Is it possible to add the ability to resend the verification email?
Maybe there was some mistake with the Form that you filled. Try again and tell us if something happened Then I would have to use a different e-mail address. I prefer to use the account I used before so I can use my e-mail address. I tried signing up again with the same e-mail but that causes an unexpected error. This may seem like nitpicking, but if the Sphere team are really going to build a social platform these kind of things should be taken care of. Perhaps something wrong with your mail service. I recommend using gmail - with this service I never had any problems.

SelfKey's solution to identity management is Self-Sovereign IDentity (SSID). Is it more than coincidence that that acronym is the same as Service Set Identifier, used for Wifi? Otherwise it is a bit confusing to use the same acronym.
I think meaning of this abbreviation is not related to Wi-Fi, just a coincidence. In the world there are hundreds thousands different abbreviations, so there is nothing strange in this.

Marketing campaigns are always a big factor in the ICO and Sphere is already doing so much in marketing. I think you're right, good marketing for a project is the key to success. If you mean it.

pre sale already sold 12million worth of tokens and is going really good time to jump in and get some tokens >< Many investors are now beginning to realize the immense potential of Selfkey and the good it will bring to cryptoverse. Too bad they don't have a bounty campaign, yet. I'd love to join the signature campaign. Glad that they will probably launch one when the main-ICO starts. well, without a bounty campaign, there wont be any bounty hunter who would drop the token after receiving, resulting in price dump of the token ><" I agree, this is plus. Let's hope that Selfkey team has marketing decision which will attract more investors.

The token represent a share of the project. Its not a mandatory for sphere to has a use case for the token. I think the value will come from the value and the utility of the platform.
Well, I think this platform will be useful and can be good alternative for facebook. So token price will grow steadily with time! i hope so, i hate facebook there have to many infos of the persons and to many privat protections for the user. Better a platform how Sphere This will be very hard for sphere to compete if they want to be known globally by people, there are many big competitors. But >200,000 users is a good start, hopefully it will grow significantly. Blockchain technology is becoming more popular, I think next year will be the year when most people in advanced cities adapt and will use the products of this technology.

Facebook bans a lot of content in my country Germany because it doesn't fit in the political agenda. In my opinion, censorship is in every way a crime. I agree, it would be fair that would be freedom of choice for everyone. Especially in a democratic country, where politicians constantly talk about these values.

US was just ahead on europe on this one, i am pretty sure that EU will follow on the regulations after it sees how much people are avoiding taxes and moving funds without governements knowledge. I don't think that they are yet grasping on the whole scope of the cryptocurrencies.
The powers that be in the EU are aware, but tolerate cryptocurrencies as this is their chance to catch up with Silicon Valley. The EU has no Google, Amazon, Apple or Microsoft, but oh, how they wish they had. In this light, I wonder if SelfKey is in a way a competitor to the Estonian E-residency. In Switzerland there emerges a cryptocurrency valley in Zug. There are a lot of projects and the mayor is very interested in crypto. Oh and I heard about this city, In the future, this city can become place where will conduct worldwide meetings and events of cryptocurrencies.

I just went to check the counter on the website and more than $10 million is already raised! That is almost never happening these days, such a success, and it's just a presale.
10m USD?!?! That's sick! They have a pre-sale cap which is 15.840.000$, with this speed it will probably reach it before it ends on 24th of December. It is now $10.537.422$ Indeed, already collected more than 10.5 million dollars. Even somehow unexpected. Although we must take into account that now the cost of ETH is more than $ 700. Yeah but we have also take into account that ETH price could also go back to for example 500$ or so, which would reduce the amount of money. But I am sure they will raise much more, this is a really useful project for crypto related stuff, so a lot of investors (not just for Selfkey) should be interested in this. I never expect such amount of money so fast. This project future look much better than I imagined. Yes, it's actually quite nice and shows that there is demand for this. I think the demand is primarily associated with the way the team has established itself and the project! I think you are right, this large and experienced team inspires confidence, investors are ready to invest their money in promising and quality project!
