[ANN] VQ Marketplace: Reimagining the marketplace industry

[ad_barv]

We are a technology company reimagining the marketplace industry.

Billions of dollars are currently captured by centralized platforms like Airbnb, Uber, and Amazon. Barring these platform giants, it's nearly impossible for new businesses to enter the competition to reach consumers and generate digital revenue. In consequence customers & suppliers are forced to use certain platforms due to monopolistic structures and the abuse of market power.

We are changing this equation by lowering the market entry barrier significantly with a purpose-built technology for on-demand marketplaces and the use of blockchain technology. Through the platform, businesses can start marketplaces quickly, risk-free and leverage the protocol network effects of the marketplace ecosystem.

We reimagine how the marketplace businesses are run. Decentralized protocols for payments, escrows, crowd disputes, and reputation will reinvent the marketplace industry pushing the marketplace giants towards an open, just and transparent future. Our future.

Cryptocurrency payments
It’s often necessary today to integrate with multiple payment providers per each region separately. Cryptocurrency payments will enable users in the VQ Marketplace Ecosystem to transact directly and businesses to start marketplaces without even setting up an account with payment providers.

Crowdsourced Disputes
Resolution layer of VQ Marketplace uses blockchain technology and crowdsourced dispute hubs to solve disputes in a fast, secure, and affordable manner.

Global user reputation
Reputation is portable across marketplaces, platforms, and geographies. Users can earn their reputation and use it on other marketplaces in the ecosystem.

Shared supply listings
Past listings, previous transactions, and user ratings are all curated from various ecosystems and made available to the marketplaces from day one.

We are a company based in Germany, San Francisco and Warsaw with an international team from Poland, Turkey, and Germany. We have been building on-demand and sharing economy applications for the past 3 years. Our founder — Adrian Barwicki — has received innovation awards from SAP, Zurich Insurance, and TechCrunch. One of our key shareholders is innoWerft GmbH — an SAP startup accelerator giving us network and access to the German B2B market.

We aim to set a standard for marketplace technology, build a partner network around it and leverage blockchain technology to build more open, just and transparent future.

Hi. The website looks rather non-typical compared to the other ICOs/TGEs. You've got no advisory board, right? Are you actually conducting a token sale? I'm a bit lost

Hi, here's Adrian. Thank you for the feedback.

Our main audience is SME that can leverage our marketplace technology to build marketplaces for their clients. The website reflects this.

We do have advisors from an enterprise field. We are in good conversation with advisors and will announce them in the future.

We are looking at existing decentralized protocols for sharing economy bookings, payments requests, crowd disputes, decentralized reputation. If we can utilize existing protocols for these use cases, we will. This will determine the exact purpose and economics of our tokens. We plan to announce the details reg. the token generation event once we are further down the line.

The main intention is now to introduce ourselves to this community and let you know what we are working on.
