Just contributed. Without the freebies, should be less likely this coin will be dumped right after ICO like all the other ones out there.
Good point, and its because the quality of the *hype* about this particular project is not just about how much is being offered to advertise... the buzz is much more genuine than the heavily spammed bounty floods. Tierion is backed by legitimate, real life use cases .
Examples with big names, like
Microsoft, who is collaborating on a Tierion based service to generate, moderate and validate
attestations, which is useful among review enthusiasts and people searching through resumes for a potential new job candidate. Also on the list of names is mega brand,
Philips using Tierion for upcoming IoT Data Proofs to collect info from MRI machines making easy to follow historically acccurate audit trails.
Verifai is another one (my favorite use case) in cahoots with Tierion on a mission to even the playing field between artificial intelligence and humans. Humans are constantly subject to annnoying captchas to prove we are human.
Tierion and Verafai collaborated on the first service to make the ROBOTS do some work to validate the artificially rendered behaviors. - Machine Learning Auditability is AWESOME. Also it is worth mentioning the use case example of keeping the data from clinical trials totally untainted and with that more worthy of our trust as consumers.
I absolutely love the project ( hence the enthusiastic endorsement) and anyone who has not yet had a chance to review the whitepaper, here is a link to it:
https://tokensale.tierion.com/TierionTokenSaleWhitePaper.pdf I highly reccommend a read through, and NOW is the time the ICO wont last for long and it is going to meet its goal, anyone can see that.
Good luck with this, cheers to profits. This is a WORTHY project, and not just because Bill Gates is seldom wrong!
