ICO For African Netflix, Good Idea?

[CCitiesLZones]

Hi folks, I'm thinking of creating a site to stream African movies to tell African stories. Is it something that would work in an ICO?

What movie ? Even there lot African movie dont you ged bored ? there real netflix 9.99 usd permonth you can watch damn everything start from asian arabian europian, you got what i mean right. If you really want to run an ICOs try something accepted world wide, try make a game using smartcontract like tamaghoci or something.

If you truly consider this, you should provide a bit more information. This vague description gives an impression that you are not capable to launch a ICO like that.

The concept is interesting though, what do you think about competition between other streaming-services in Africa though?

I saw somewhere an ICO called cryptoflix. sounds nice but i didnt read their white papers for now.
I will start researching for that ICO next week. Will post my opinions on here. Sounds nice but need to investigate.

And unless Africans can't buy a subscription to Netflix for 10$? I think your idea isn't viable.

[slaman29]

On the top of that, no I doubt it's a very good idea, but it would depend a lot on market research, which is something you obviously haven't done if you're just asking us if it's a good idea. I know people in Africa already pirate to watch their stories/films, so it will boil down to cost and affordability. If your idea makes it cheap for them to use, maybe. But an ICO? Get the marketing done right, get the target audience excited, and you have a winner. So your ICO is plainly just to raise money, not a blockchain solution, right?

[AravinthP]

Your project should convince me that it has got potential. making what is already there in a different version naah not a big fan

[Ciucas]

Yeah, it could be a good idea if it would be cheaper than Netflix.
But do you think that people from Africa are willing to way for this kind of service ?

[liangweicha]

If this can be positive and positive, I think it will work good, but I'm still curious about what this ICO project  in Africa is going to do. Just to get new money? Or something else?

[CCitiesLZones]

Cool replies. Thanks all. I think it will only be viable when Africans have reliable internet plus lots of disposable cash. Right now, except for a few pockets, that's not the case, so I will hold.

Mogu vam nazvati ICO koji će biti jedan od najboljih ICO-a 2018. godine iz mog mišljenja i pregleda i to je https://marineco.in/ico. Zašto je marinecoin jedan od najboljih ICO jer:
- je prva samoodržavajuća kripto valuta
- je prvi DEV-kovan novac.
- je veštačka inteligencija.
- zaista je decentralizovan.

i love the idea the african diaspora will support it

[PEllis]

Africa is a huge potential market. You never know. Building the network of users is a whole other matter

[Snarks]

I just don't see it happening. Even if the ICO succeeds and the project finds a userbase in Africa, Netflix will notice and undercut them with a better offer. It will also be very hard or even impossible to get redistribution rights from the content owners that are already in a contract with Netflix and other existing platforms.

Not sure if an ICO is the best solution... And an African Netflix is a very broad statement.


What about an ICO for a startup incubator for different african regions and then in the incubator try to make a company to generate African movies, series, documentaries

[Murloc]

There is a plenty of russian websites where you can watch different movies for free. This experience is pretty similar to netflix but the service owners are earning on ads placen on the websites and before each movie. I don't think that in africa anyone will bother about any copyright stuff so you can try to do the same free service.

Why ICO?  What do you need crypto for in this project aside from funding?
