Thank you guys for the clarifications! Another thing in your project I am curious about is the authors and experts. What are the benefits for them and what would be the ways to attract them? As I understand from the whitepaper, they have to create widgets, does that mean also the technical part (programming), or authors and experts provide analytics and content only?

Hey, where can we publicly track the amount of presale contribution? Is it even public?

Yes, a ticker and a smart contract address will become visible for all on presale site when public TGE will start (on Monday, 18 September 16:00 UTC).

What skill set or backgorund do the team possess to provide a very good analytical intelligent investment advise for me. I don't think their is need to have a token for this because is more of service subscription for me

Thanks for a good question!

Our team members have a background in OLAP technology and in Machine Learning to bring automatable analytics whe possible.
Also we implement Experts' evaluation method to assess characteristics as market size, team skills and experience, competitors which cannot be evaluated by machine right now. We already have preliminary agreements with some ICO experts to become the first users of our platform.

It's our inportant statement: we as a platfrom developers don't evaluate ICOs by ourselfs so we avoid a conflict of interests. It differenciates our service from any other rating agencies and ICO listings.

We use a token as an utility token:
1) users pay for the service with token
2) Experts and Authors receive a reward for ICO analysis contribution with this token
3) token spendings and daily average balance is used to prevent rating system attacks

So we sure a token is a crucial part of our system.

In your opinion, wouldn't the Expert's financial reward dependency on Expert's grade cause many controversial situations? I am also curious why you preferred this way of analysts monetizing their expertise instead of e.g. just hiring couple or team of experts.

With independent Experts we target the following:
1) make Experts independent from the platform and allow anybody in the world to monetize their analytics skills in part of ICO analysis
2) create a modest competition between Experts

We expect to fight controversial situations by fine tuning rating system.

Thank you guys for the clarifications! Another thing in your project I am curious about is the authors and experts. What are the benefits for them and what would be the ways to attract them? As I understand from the whitepaper, they have to create widgets, does that mean also the technical part (programming), or authors and experts provide analytics and content only?

The authors are people responsible for widget creation. They are usually developers (they have to create a widget using an SDK, connect it to a data source and register it on the platform. After they register a widget, they get a set percentage of the widget's revenue (or all of it, if it's automatic).

The experts, on the other hand, provide actual content, if the widget is not automatic. They can write business plan overviews, technical audit reports, etc. in appropriate widgets. The part of the widget's revenue not going to authors is split among them according to their reputation.

Can anyone become an Expert or an Author on your platfrom? Or do they have to be tested and will you ask them for qualification proof?

Yes, openness is a core principle of our platform.

Anybody can become an Expert but the rating system will help to choose best of them by the community voting.

Also anybody can become an Author (thanks to widget container's isolation) and will get access to basic resoures of the platform. With the rise of popularity of Author's widget it will get more computing resources automatically.

Man, there are so much investment platforms already. How is this different from the rest? And a lot of them are under ICO prices right now. But I'm willing to consider if the devs explain more in detail yet simple to understand.

This, there are so many of ICO nowadays. Could devs explain it more in detail about Dolphin BI?

cool graphics though

Could you please clarify, what do you mean by "investment platforms"? There are crypto investment funds, ICO listings, ICO ratings, ICO marketing agencies, "ICO turnkey" agencies, ICO incubators are on the way. Does it all fall into your "investment platforms" definition?

Our current vision of Dolphin BI is more close but not equal to ICO listings and ICO ratings but with significant differences:
1) we don't select ICO which to list or which do not list. So anybody can put their ICO info on our site to receive a feedback from community. Our community of experts will do a moderation while we only provide a plarform. We also don't get paid for ICO to be listed.
2) any Expert can work for his/her own and build their own reputation in community and receive a reward for contribution.
3) any Author (e.g. third-party developer) can build their own analytical application on to of the platform, to provide some useful analytics to community and also to receive a reward which depends on application popularity.

We think that this way of ICO analysis is more close to principles of reaching a consensus in a decentralized manner.

Agree. See my previous post with some explanation:

And also the first post in this topic is also about our proposals and our key features.
Do you have any particular questions regarding our proposed product, team, terms etc?

Ok, got it.
Also, who is going to be Curators-Subscribers to take care of rating system? Are you going to do this? How are you going to ensure inpartiality?

The entire rating system is handled by a smart-contract. The ratings are calculated strictly according to formulae described in the whitepaper. We are also planning to create a separate contract for upgrade proposition voting that would allow the community to change the rules if required.

ICO list curation is a bit more complicated - we will probably have to oversee the curation process ourselves in the beginning, before the critical mass of trustworthy users is gathered. Then is should become self-regulating - think Wikipedia.
