For Developers, By Developers
Crowdsale will help fund marketing and branding of the DEVS TRUSTED MARK and the development of the DEVS PLATFORM
INTRODUCTIONThe concerns relating to transparency, trust and reliability have loomed over the cryptocurrency market since its inception. For the successful establishment of a medium of exchange that everyone adheres to, it is imperative to build a network of trust between participants and for them to possess the conviction that the project would yield the results that they seek. Even though, the stories and developments surrounding crypto currency seem to be arriving into the market at a fast rate, it is safe to suggest that this industry is still reeling in its infancy stages, unbeknownst to the knowledge of the masses and the general public.
The popular ‘brands’ of crypto currency have indeed gained massive attention, but many are still trying to question how a form of currency which is essentially ‘decentralized’ will fare in a market when crucial decision related to its future are put at the forefront for debate. Addressing these concerns has emerged as one of the most critical considerations for proponents of cryptocurrency and customers alike. This is where DEVS comes in, a cryptocurrency which has been developed keeping in view the limitations and drawbacks linked with other variants and especially designed for the millions of individuals that are a part of the global freelance economy.
WHAT IS DEVSEnsuring the provision of a reliable platform, what sets DEVS apart is its focus on bringing skilful developers and reliable customers together on a stage that serves a mutually beneficial purpose. DEVS aims to become a trusted brand name for developers that have established their name in the market and exhibited expertise in the area of blockchain technology development. Another element which is unique to the DEVS platform is that it is not limited to the inclusion of developers that specialize in a specific language, on-board this platform are developers possessing capabilities in all thinkable coding languages be it HTML, CSS, ASP, NET,C+...
As the rapid digitization of the economy takes place in the midst of a booming freelancing industry which has essentially taken over the globe, DEVS’ target market aims to assist individuals engaged in a wide array of freelance projects to make secure transactions over the platform. The decentralization aspect of this currency in this case will reduce the transaction fees related with the exchange which further makes the platform ideal for such a customer base.
The dynamic team behind the creation of DEVS has cultivated this idea after engaging in extensive research on counterpart cryptocurrencies, highlighting and understanding their limitations and assessing measures that could be taken to address these concerns. This aspect truly makes it a one-of-a-kind and unique project within this domain. Building on this idea, the establishment of DEVS FUND has also been supported in line with the vision of making this venture feasible for all stakeholders.
The DEVS FUND will support future open source developments that can excavate technologies which will further enhance the viability of this platform. Accordingly, the platform will also boost of a databank of developers sorted on the basis of their area of expertise, skills, and experience and qualification levels in conjunction with a database of jobs.
The inclusivity of this platform will derive itself from the fact that it aims to emerge as a venture wherein developers of all kinds will collaborate to engage in the continuous improvement of DEVS through the identification of any road blocks or faults within the system.
WHY DEVS?The DEVS platform has been designed keeping in view the unique needs of two critical and unique parties – experienced developers and customers. While developers have been vigilantly seeking a trusted dev mark, customers have been vigorously engaged in exploring avenues where they can interact with reliable programmers. DEVS ensures the delivery of virus free scripts through the use of this platform.
Freelancing platforms that essentially link customers who seek to avail the services of specialized individuals in a particular field have often been criticized for reasons relating to reliability and trust. This consideration has been particularly linked with the release of payments to the freelancers once the project deliverables or milestones have been achieved.
With DEVS, the security offered to both parties becomes a topmost priority and the incidence of jobs that could be potential scams is zero. The way DEVS aims to achieve this is through the release of milestones from the customer’s end who will release all payments upfront upon their step by step completion due to their faith in the DEVS platform.
Another critical consideration which has often remained a point of contention for users of such platforms is the presence of commission fees which is charged for the use of services. However, as a major first for the industry, DEVS has launched the initiative wherein customers and developers will be expected to pay zero commissions for any activity or work that is undertaken by the means of this platform.
It has been noted that in case a freelancer leaves a task unfinished due to any unforeseen reason, the client suffers as a result because platforms do not provide an appropriate backup to take over the responsibility, in the case of DEVS such issues will not emerge for the client.
For the first time ever, DEVS will provide a customer protection policy which will guarantee a 100% completion rate for all tasks if one developer fails to deliver the milestones.
In such a scenario, the task shall be assigned to another member of the DEVS community who possesses similar expertise in the area. Client protection and customer satisfaction will remain the utmost priority for the DEVS community which will not be compromised at any stage of project assignment to project completion.
Full disclosure and transparency in relaying information about project status will be ensured at all stages until the final task is delivered as per customer requirements.
OUR VISIONDue to the ongoing lack of confidence in the online freelance market and the incidence of scams on both sides, developers who possess the skills and the expertise to cater to customer requests are often discouraged from venturing into this arena which is damaging for both parties involved when they could be successfully executing projects together and driving them towards completion.
According to recent statistics, about 36% of the workforce in the United States, United Kingdom and across Europe is freelancers who prefer to work on projects and offer their expertise on customer to customer basis.
The flexibility and freedom that comes with a freelancing opportunity is indeed attractive to many individuals because it equips them with the ability to undertake other ventures rather than being stuck in the monotony of a typical 9 to 5 lifestyle.
With the emergence of the freelance economy, many scammers have also found opportunities of creating fake websites with user reviews that cannot be verified, while some developers have also opted to promote their work through counterfeit reviews – this implies that scams may occur on both sides.
DEVS aims to rebuild the element of trust within this economy and ensure that any online transaction between developers and customers is characterized by the presence of reliability and confidence which will take the mutually beneficial business relationship forward.
