ANN [DENT] Dent: Tokenizing and Liberating the World's Mobile Data

[disconnectme]

The ICO ends in 10 days time, at this rate I don't see the team raising 150kEthers from this market, most of the recent ICOs has dumped in price when they hit the market, so for me I would rather wait till the end of the ICO and see what happens to the price when listed on exchanges

[kraterion]

Mobile data market is huge, Dent is the only one that will provide a decentralized market for that, in my modest opinion the smart move is to not dump when will reach exchanges. It has a great future ahead if devs work on their promises

The minimum goal was 15,000 ethereum and they already reached that so the development could continue even If they don't reach the other goals they wanted to achieve, the price will definitely decrease after launch for the simple reason that there is bounty campaigns, If they don't want that, they should give the bounty participants funds a few weeks after the ICO finishes.

I wrote an article about DENT in Steemit. Feel free to read it, thank you

I didn't see any instructions on the website or in the emails about how I'm supposed to get the dent coins into my ether wallet.  I purchased on 7/12.  Was that part of the presale?

[MBW_2]

In order to be able to see tokens in MEW, do I need to have access to my private keys? Doesn't coinbase allow that?

[NathanJB]

There are still enough time left. I think there are still interested investors trusting this project who really want to participate and have a share of Dent tokens. More of them will be coming. This project will be a huge success in the actual field.

In Whitepaper and site DENT it is explained that Token Dent will not be distributed until the end of ICO
Note: the DENT tokens will be claimable to your wallet approx. 3 weeks after the Token Sale has ended on 26 July. We will inform you about the time schedule during the Token Sale.

here is my thoughts as someone that worked with mobile operators for long time:

1. reading site and faq i see mostly topic about tokes, its distribution etc etc
2. white paper give very brief technical details how they suppose overcome all obstacles and the list isn't just big... it's HUGE
  a. in order to provide the best coverage for best prices u need (according to your technical details) perform integration with every one of telco u want to work with (i.e. support it's service for interchange). regular user cannot just send it's data bandwidth to someone else and tight integration with telco is needed. have u ever integrated with telco? well... i assume not. since this is THE MAIN CONCERN. telcos are not just paranoid on security, they are total crazy... and providing u "entrance" for getting into holy grail of their premises... well... good luck!

3. let's think on behalf of telco: what intension it has to give it's data that his customer already bought to someone else? for this particular telco it's LOSS! since instead of selling to new customer full package (let's say 2GB for decent price), this customer gets some data from other customer and telco gets NO PROFIT.

and in order to get this "NO PROFIT", telco also need to provide u with the interfaces for connectivity, work with u and support your api etc etc. what i see from telco perspective is NO GAIN. do u think telco thinks about how spare some bucks for its customer? i assume not... they think how to sell u more and earns more money...

if this solution is gonna work only with support of law enforcement why your technology will get mature, but from my experience it shall take 3-5 years. none telco will give u hand till then.

imho, this is totally incorrect bringing basically anarchic scheme to such conservative and greedy world as mobile! the approach shall be different...

[gobbledygook]

just read the thread... well...

1. DENT representative doesn't provide any specific answers on tech questions and respond with standard phrases
2. they stated that talks with telcos is too slow and other option to launch MNVO, though... this option never stated at initial tech papers. looks like they giving tech details just in case to fill the gap... fuckup!
3. even in case of MVNO... do u know how much does it cost to open MVNO even in single particular country? ICO u do isn't enough even for one country... on the contrary, u are building global business where multiply telcos shall recongnize u... too BIG!
4. also regarding the team:

the one that has any experience with telcos is just advisor that looks like just getting money for allowing how name be stated on ICO page. all other check by themselves, has experience that is SOOOOO FARRRR from telcos infra and iternals... who is there: ios android DEV? ok... they will have nice app with nice screens... FOREX trader that has min data of telco business?

who is gonna solve tech part? i don't see...


my verdict: it's bullshit... nice idea that too big to be implemented. at least with the team stated and money they suppose to raise during ICO. i don't state this scam, but also could be...


big aim with almost no support from all aspects IMHO.

I know very little about Telco, but my assessment was similar. The less data you use vs. what you purchase equals profit for the telcos as they say. So it's not in their interests to work with dent because they lose the profit they would have earned from your wasted data & the profit they'd make selling 'new' data to a customer vs. helping them buy yours.

So you'd have to do it against the telcos and I'm not sure it's an easy process to sell unused data to someone else if the telcos don't want you too.

That's an usual event when ICO hit the market because bounty dumper and investors would like to sell their tokens faster and want to get instant money from there, nothing to worry about and with the event of Hardwork the dump trend will be longer than expected.

Maybe only 20000 ETH will be achieved, and whether bounty hunter will still receive their payment in accordance with the terms promised? I hope you are proofessional of this

[Adya]

did not see denttoken on tve few weeks. no more social bounty

I do not understand with what you mean. If you are thinking you will not getting paid from this, just remove your signature and change to other one. They already collected min investment, there is no any problem with payment then.

Are you stupid? I asked for a 280 Million DENT Tokens for bounty, would they still pay me even if it only accumulated 20000 ETH? If you do not know anything do not just talk, you look like a fool

I'm surprised to see this thread has only reached 12 pages. This looks like very interesting project, I'm not invested in it yet. Might check back later. Good luck

"Any Tokens that remain unsold at the crowdsale end date (26 July 2017), will be added to the Company Inventory and will remain in a locked state for at least six months from the crowdsale end date. 25% of the total amount of the unsold tokens will be released from the lock up quarterly, first time at the date of 6 months after the crowdsale end date."

Current tokens sold to date = 8.7 billion
Let's say they double that over the last 8 days of the token sale (which is not likely). Let's make it an even 20 billion tokens sold.
Leaves 80 billion (80%) of tokens in the hands of the company. Which after 6 months they can start dumping 12.5 billion tokens on the market every three months. I think Bounty sellers are the least of everyone's worry.

Ummmm. No thanks!!

Unless they revise their token strategy to burn/destroy any unsold tokens, I wouldn't touch this project with a ten foot pole!
