Snapshot

[TeamSnapshot]

Only way to gain tokens is by taking pictures? what about investos/token holders for long term?

The fact tokens can be earned through taking pictures is something that will draw attention to our application, but it is not the only way to get your hands on tokens.

You are able to purchase Snap tokens during our ICO, and after that through traditional means such as exchanges. If this wasn't the case users wouldn't be able to pay for our special services like photo retrieval and stickers. We have fiat to Snap token integration scheduled for September, you will be able to purchase tokens right in our application.

I can't wait to find out how snapshot will be implemented with it's app. We have not seen anything like this before.

When this idea was brought to our attention we realized that it was an empty spot in the market waiting to be filled. Just the fact that users can earn money through in a type of application they would be using anyways is going to throw the market on its heads; its a foreign and exciting concept to those unfamiliar with cryptocurrency.

It still is exciting for me

I will hold longterm everything I make. I hope only quality is rewarded though. We don't need crappy pictures spammed all over the place.

We're glad, and we share your excitement.

The weekly rankings are based upon user votes, that is one of the great things about Snapshot. Its the users who decided whats popular, we will not be acting as gatekeepers.

Unique Project,  
Wanted to Know when your coin ico launching?

Thank you!

Our ICO is launching on July 30th, 1:00PM PDT.

You can stay updated on any important ICO information by joining our mailing list on http://www.teamsnapshot.org

ok, waiting for this amazing app, Hope we will find a great app after the ICO.

We are all sure you'll be happy with how intuitive and seamless it is. We have spent a lot of time perfecting the UI, a great app that is hard to use is a bad app.

Can you support your claim: 'WhatsApp Revenue: +1 Billion (2014)' with evidence?

You must at least give them a chance. Is is very true that social media is the driving force behind many brands and snapshot aim to get in there as well.
It will start slow everything does. When people in the community realize the can use snapshot instead of whatever other  service they using because snapshot pays that is when it will really lift off the ground. They implementing interesting features you otherwise wouldn't have. Photo contests it one of them.

 We are a group of four based in California, we met and all currently work in some capacity for a similar application. It's large, you've heard of it. One of our members holds a rather important position and works in exclusivity. Devoting time to other applications is grounds for his termination. That is the current reason we do not have any team information available at this point.

The revenue we make there is what allows us to fund development and other associated costs. Once the ICO is over we have all agreed to put in our two weeks so we can fully devote time to Snapshot. Our team Page will be released on August 10th.

We understand this isnt ideal, but it is the only option available where we have enough funding pre ICO to operate. This will cast doubt on our project and will prevent some from investing but it is necessary to get Snapshot off the ground, and realistically our funding target is set at a price where we aren't worried about our ability to raise it.

-snip-

That will be a big challenge for the team. I don't know if you can attract so much investors with that kind of style.
Since the community is fed up with all those scammers, crappy projects, name it, a lot of them will be hesitant to risk their hard-earned money.
Unless, you know someone who has big pockets, who believe in your platform and who's willing to shell out for your initial fund. That would be awesome.

But who knows, if you have concrete plans and this project is a promising one, maybe you will pull it off.

We completely agree, That is one of the main reasons our target funding is so low compared to similar projects. We feel the low ICO value will properly pay back the users who invest on the ground floor, the profits mirror the risk investors are taking.

Part of the reason we aren't worried is because we brought our project forward to a few select angel investors and after they signed their non disclosure agreements and we pitched they wanted to follow through. We ended up recanting the offer as we felt having tokens in the hands of actual users would be much better for the projects longevity, even if it means lower than possible funding.

So if the worst happens and the offering doesn't go anywhere we will have other avenues for funding, even though we think they are less than ideal.

It is good to know that "if the worst happens and the offering doesn't go anywhere" yo have other avenues because, as is, this thing, even if it is legit -very doubtful at this point- faces very significant headwinds.

1st.- It makes no sense, since you have all those other avenues regardless of the results of the ICO, to wait until the end of it to give your 2 weeks notices. No real reason for it. In fact you need the ICO to be successful or you would just keep your day jobs -a very good option in more ways than one, to keep the day jobs- and forget about the application or go with it the usual route outside of crypto.

2.- Bringing this to crypto only serves one clear purpose: Getting that initial funding and securing your salaries. Given the reduced usage to be expected from crypto people (as opposed to mainstream), any profit is very distant in the horizon... at best.

3.- But lets imagine that this becomes wildly successful very quickly, you break records and the app is massively popular... in that case -in any case, really- your top guy at least -if not the "four" of you-, will be sued for million$ by his current employer (check Lewandovsky, in the real world) and it is clear who will lose in court.

For those and several other reasons, this project is quite doomed as it is. If you are in the clear regarding rights and no proprietary intellectual property is stolen, it can work. In the current structure it would work ONLY for you guys, regardless how many you are, not for the public or the ICO investors, mind you. But you need to take the risk on the faith in the project, not on the price -- and, by the way, there are no other "comparable" ICOs. There hasn't been any ICO so far to fund an app like yours made by anonymous developers, or anyone, really. So just because you say it is cheap and you compare it with real world, proven, successful applications it doesn't mean yours are even remotely, best case scenario, even in that wall park.

Anyway, good luck with your project, you are going to need it. As it stands, so many red flags should keep any discerning potential investor quite far away from it, for it stinks to high heaven to amateurism -at best- outright scam -at worst-.

This can even be good for artists. They take a picture of their art. Would be really good.

That was a complete typo on our part.
It was in no way our intention to misconstrue the facts and it does us absolutely no favors, as situations like this happen. We take this very seriously.

We encourage you to go through all our other market valuations and revenue to look for other discrepancies, as this was an isolated incident.

We are revising the Market View currently.

That's correct, users are only eligible up to two subscriptions per account.

This limit was set because after a certain amount of bonus payouts it just isn't feasible based on our Snap Token holdings for weekly rankings, its a great incentive to get new users but if it is pushed to far it does a disservice to our bottom line, something that will affect all token holders.

Hi TimeTeller,

Snap Tokens serve a very real purpose other than initial funding, Snap tokens are an agreement by us to distribute a portion of our yearly net revenue, there are very few other seamless options to distribute a stake in Snapshot. The stock market has a barrier of entry to the average person where ERC20 Tokens do not. It serves a real use in the application and has a real monetary use, they compliment each other. That is the whole ideological  base of ERC20 Tokens, issuance of contracts and tokens which serve as a representation of 'X'.

We have fully checked the issues of our situation with our lawyers, and would not be taking this avenue if it posed that risk. Him Spreading himself to thin on other projects is simply grounds for termination, it has nothing to do with intellectual property and it hold no other legal basis.

The ICO is a better alternative to angel investors as it gets Snap tokens in the hands of users. There's a higher chance of users making purchases like stickers and UI skins if they have them from the during the ICO, it's a running start. If people understand by first hand experience that Snap tokens earn them money they are going to be honest, verbal supporters and tell their circle of contacts. Even Millions of dollars in marketing from VC's wont beat real, honest word of mouth. Every decision we make is for the growth and longevity of Snapshot

We understand your hesitance and thank you for your comments and wishes of good luck.

[TeamSnapshot]

When can we see the alpha version of the app?

The app will be available at the end of the ICO, August 10th.

[TeamSnapshot]

I think project is cool but how can u get in market? Whatsapp wechat.. They dont let u for get in   but good luck

The fact users can earn cash is something that no other similar app has. That is something very solid that people understand, the ability of that alone  to sway the market cant be understated.

[DylanJones]

When can we see the alpha version of the app?

^ Ditto

[rifatrony5]

Can we use any version before ico?

They might be choose some people for testing the application.

If you want then you can personally contact with campaign manager.
