I now looked more closely at the ICO timeline, and now it seems to me that these are too big bonuses for whales. For example, 60% + 15% in 1 round if more than 150,000 tokens are sold.
As for me, I'm less worried about big bonuses rather, I'm more concerned and at the same time excited of Sphere's development road map and future improvements and innovations as this factors will be critical to the success of the project.Imho. When is the browser version coming out? I'm wondering if it's gonna have some functions that app doesn't. Probably minor differences, you can do a lot of fo thins in a browser that you can't in a smartphone, but I don't think actual useful features will be in one and not the other, its necessary that you can do the same thing in both, if not, people will try to use more one than the other. Yeah, if they released the PC version then it might have some minor function and features difference considering they are two different platforms. I think the PC version will be more robust and stable as PC application development has tons of API's in its sleeve and also the app is a little easier to test and fine tune.Imho. Probably the PC version is going to have some more functions because of the power it has and will be more stable. The app probably should be less stable but it has the huge advantage that you can take it anywhere. I think web version is the best option, it can be used on both mobile and pc, and also almost all social media have a web version. |

The competition for ticker symbols is getting stronger day by day, I noticed another project which wants to use SAT as the ticker for their token (Sandblock).
Its because there are so many ICOs since 2017, and based on what the system decide the right ticker owner? |

Marketplace of what . What can we possibly sell in social media ?
Virtually everything I would say. But for opening the marketplace based on the Sphere social network, the devs should do many more things, so it's a bit early for that idea Thats not a difficult thing if a social media already has so many users. So yes they need to focus on getting users first. Im waiting for the "More Features Coming" on their roadmap, probably in 2019. |

I see no obstacles in bans such as Facebook, we will soon see projects being launched by those who today call themselves opposers and followers of the law to the letter. I believe that all the segments that exist today in our day-to-day activities will have at least one activity on Blockchain, that's right, in a few years
that's true, the blockchain will have projects for everything in the near future. but we still have a ways to go. There are many other similar platform. So it's best to partner with existing platform It can be beneficial to partner with larger existing platforms, but only if there is a complementary relationship that doesn’t result in the smaller company being suppressed or limited. For example, it would bad to partner with Facebook if it results in Sphere being pushed to only focus on niche audiences - or if Facebook was taking Sphere’s ideas/IP to make their own product. I'm not worries about that. remember when myspace was top dog and then facebook took it's crown? this sort of thing happens all the time. that's the free market and users decide what is successful. Why does it seem to me that such a partnership will turn into a purchase of the company. Facebook already bought Instagram and Whatsapp, and all these platforms are very far from cryptography. It is better to cooperate with Telegram, since this is currently the most promising platform that has held the largest ICO in history. That's usually how it happens. Big companies buy out small ones or promising start-ups just to eliminate the competition. Whether or not they actually implement ideas, that's a totally different question. I'm not worried about that. remember when myspace was top dog and then facebook took it's crown? this sort of thing happens all the time. that's the free market and users decide what is successful. Yes and also about the bankruptcy of yahoo, they were a giant companies. But it will also depend on the progress, i hope there will be some great innovations come from sphere. |

How are you planing to reach to countries like China and Russia where they are mainly using their own social platforms and even Facebook is not as popular like in the rest of the world?
They shouldnt try to reach those countries at this early stage. If even facebook isnt popular in those countries, i think it will also be difficult for sphere except they have a deal / partnership for it. Not to mention that China will just block them if they get too big. Thats what they do with Facebook and Google. They need to have control over whatever social media Chinese people use. I think they have and opportunity to enter in those markets thanks to crypto but I wouldn't start with them. in Russia the most popular social network: vk , I don't think that it can be move to second place in this region. Although one does not need to strive to embrace everything - with time, people will understand the advantages of decentralization. So more Russians need to get blockchain education ? I thought the country is highly educated in tech It has a huge population of IT educated people but majority are still into traditional tech other than crypto I think In my opinion almost every country out there needs to have some kind of blockchain education. It educated people doesn't mean that they can understand this technology I've actually seen couple of programs in universities that major in blockchain technology, so it has already started. With time, I think it will be more and more of it. Blockchain is still a relatively new technology, so it needs some time. Yes it still need much development regarding the upcoming quantum computers, and im pretty sure it can be prevented. If quantom computer will be able to beat blockchain technology, im quite sure it will also be able to make blockchain better and unbeatable. And about sphere, i think all people in this world will be able to afford standart personal computer later considering the old version will getting cheaper as time goes by. So i think social media users will always increase. |

Hi guys, why the token is constantly sinking, is it really going so badly?
Anyone know whether there will be good news in the near future?
From telegram, they said that theyre still focusing on the website. I also want to download the whitepaper, could anyone provide the link? At the moment for some reason, whitepaper is not available for download. http://www.esports.com/whitepaperEsports official twitter channel consists only fresh news from pc game industry, but does not reflect actual development process. ( Let`s just hope Esports team would keep their obligations, they are germans, this nation is famous for qualitative approach to work. In my opinion, White Paper has been removed so that investors do not see the dates indicated in the roadmap + promised actions. Thats a bad move if its true, are they afraid that they wont fulfill their promise? this can be called a scam. |

Im pretty sure there will be many decentralized social media later. And i hope sphere will really have some unique features in the future. Years ago, Facebook was fresh and new and all teenagers loved it. Today, these teeagers are parents and their kids don't want to be on the same platform as them. The same could happen to vk. Social Media is a highly competitive market and this is an opportunity for Sphere. Not so sure if they don't want to be with them on the same platform, but mostely not befriended with them there  Its not actually because of that, its about the trend and a trend is caused by a good marketing and promotion. Well not so sure about the point that mrketing is everything. The best marketing is to have better features so that people talk about it. That is mostly always the case with big social networks snd other things too. I never said that marketing is everything if you read it carefully, even thats what i said on a few posts ago, that unique features are also important things. |

Notice, that after stagnation, VIB made +10% growth in one days. Price went up from 0,26$ to 0,29$
But this is still far from the ATH, i really missed it  They have done a lot of things this year, i hope there will be a good rise in this month. |

So this https://t.me/sphere_official1 is the official or the scam channel Official, i copied it from their first page. It's also the same as the one on the website |

Good to have Android app but are you developing PC browser version, and integrate games like facebook ? A common currency for all the games will be something big
I have checked the whitepaper about informatioen of browser version. Nothing found. The normal way it that ther is the webversion and than the solution on the different app platforms. Anyone got information about the development roadmap and the browerser version? The browser version is already available, you can check it out of the official website. Not sure about the games though, still too early to talk about them I think. What do you mean? when you logged in, you will go to the token sale information, like buy tokens and referral, not the social media platform. |

The 45% bonus for the 1st ICO round is quite attractive and this will surely attract many investors considering Sphere has already a working platform and is now enjoying a steady stream of community members.
It's good that each rounds lasts aprox 14 days so there's enough time for everyone to enter the ICO. I also expect them to reach the HC. It will be very difficult to reach the hardcap unless sphere has 1 or more unique features which distinguishes them with other social media. Like instagram, 9gag, snapchat, twitter. They all came up with unique features. |

Guys, we will not burn any token if there's some left. The reason for this is, some private investors have already agreed to come onboard, and they are willing to buy those unsold tokens higher than the ICO price. Look, our hard cap is 250M USD that figure is not your normal average hard cap that you see every day. Although we are confident that we will hit that target on our own (with community's help) but in an unlikely scenario where we fall short of our goal this is where the unburned tokens will save the project from scrap and cancelation. Case in point, after crowdsale and we only got 200M USD the unsold tokens worth 50M USD will be divided among all private investors. So instead of just burning it and get absolutely nothing out of it, we made something productive out of it. Guys, you have that this project is high tech, it needs tons of money to develop. So we will need all the money that we can muster.
I hate being the antagonist but why would any investor choose come in late for higher cost when they can at a cheaper price point? I understand you need tons of money for this project. Let's hope you can raise it or else that poor private investor will have to make do with left overs. Ladies and Gentlemen, if we let private investors first, how many tokens do you think would be left for the community? These are large private investors, there's no way in hell these guys would buy just 1 or 5 eth worth of KEP Tokens right? If we let them in first I am pretty sure a big chunk of that token pool will be taken by them. Now the question is, what about our aim of DECENTRALIZATION? That thing is gone if we let this whales devour of tokens before our community. I hope you guys get me on this. You have a point, but how to know if that whales will not participate in the ico sales? I am sure a lot of them will join the ico. So what will be the difference in ico and a private sales? Because you have to pass the KYC first to invest there. |

So the conclusion is this ICO is more about an oppotunity for community to join / participate in this big project rather than just an opportunity for the team to get some funds because actually its already guaranteed by the private investors? |

Main ICO started yesterday.
1 SAT = $0.14
Softcap already reached and 14% of token's total sold. What do you think? It has the potential to reach the hardcap ($40M) ? That's not bad at all! Hard cap might be a bit much, because they set the softcap quite low. Well, I would be fine if they could reach 50% or so. But as they already have the soft cap the project is safe, and that is what matters. Agree, softcap is the primary thing and in my opinion hard cap is just a luxury thing. If the token's growth is good , it will also bring benefits to the team. |

So where I can see raised funds? I cant find counter or something on the site  I think they will set up in proper time . There is some sort of counter on the website that shows 11%. If I understand it correctly, then 11% of the hardcap is raised (which is about $4,4 mil). Cant find... 11% - this is with pre-sale or 11% raised only on ICO? How much on pre-sale? Its on their website : https://sphere.social/I think it includes pre-sale. |
