[ANN][ICO] 📱 AppCoins - The New Blockchain-Based Protocol For The App Stores 🔋

[kabzon_btw]

I think there's some confusion here about this:

One thing is Aptoide, which is an independent Android app store that has been around since 2009 and it's very successful. The Aptoide model is based on its social features. Any user can upload APKs to their own "profile" (their own store). And they can share those APKs with other users. This is similar to what Youtube does. Users can share videos. Of course, many videos are not made by the users themselves and may be copyrighted. That's why they have a DMCA compliant process where copyrighted content is removed on the request of the intellectual property owners. Aptoide follows the same process. Now you may ask, why would users want to upload and share APKs? The logic is somewhat similar to Spotify. You can make lists of apps by theme or your own selection. But also, it allows you to use Aptoide as a way to Backup the apps that you have in your phone, since as we all know, our phones have limited space, and Aptoide provides a kind of storage for that as well. This is why the model has been successful because it ensures that developers get recognized as the owners of the intellectual property, but also gives users the flexibility to help distribute and backup their apps. Additionally, as a quality assurance process, every app is filtered for malware, and fake apps are removed automatically. A seal of approval appears in the apps (Trusted badge) that signals to the community that the app can be downloaded. Parallel to this automated system, the community can also vote and mark content as malware, fake, etc...

So Aptoide ensures that a decentralized content distribution model works for everyone involved: user, developer and OEM (since they can currently make money off Aptoide based white-label app store solutions).

Now, what does this have to do with AppCoins?
Aptoide is supporting the development of AppCoins as an open protocol for all app stores. To be clear about this, the larger part of the team working on AppCoins is part of Aptoide, for now. In 2018 when the foundation is established, the management of the project will shift to this foundation, and Aptoide will no longer control it. Just think of Apache Software Foundation for instance. One of the reasons why Aptoide is involved with AppCoins is that decentralization, transparency, and openness are already part of Aptoide's DNA. Blockchain helps Aptoide (and in the future other app stores) to take a further step into decentralization and transparency, by decentralizing the advertising, in-app purchase, and app reputation processes and proposing a protocol that makes these processes universal.

So "powerful" answer, I will read it, thanks

I think this is a very nice project and also will reach a great height. Looking forward to support it. I think investors will get a good profit from this by looking at its extraordinary features.good luck.

People may not know about the important of Protocol. It means that if Appcoins is successful developed, the system does not need to just apply to Aptoide but anyone can also use it to integrate to their own system.

 I would like to know if app coins could be purchased in the crowd sale through credit card?

What is the hard cap?

[hassanchahrour]

What is the hard cap?

hardcap is 15.3M, 40% of token supply or 180,000,000 APPC

is this correct

[tientien6]

As of now, the peg rate was not changed

[kevinantonio]

As of now, the peg rate was not changed

Meaning that the price of appcoins during presale and crowdsale are the same rate in ETH

Yup I realised that...so you'll have a lot of questions about that.

and a lot of unhappiness from crowdsale which is what Simple Token has encountered

Moving forward we will not be re-defining the price of an appcoin in USD for public sale as it is expected that the price of eth is changing significantly

Presale was special as we wanted to help our aptoide community participants to ease into the buying process

[hassanchahrour]

i think the team will need to revise the whitepaper to denominate crowdsale in ETH

[rayazasheva]

i think the team will need to revise the whitepaper to denominate crowdsale in ETH

at the end of the day appcoins has created the most fair system for investors for both presale and crowdsale, so as long as they understand how we went about correcting the issues, I think this is the best way moving forward

Yes agree, sorry for the late reply, was busy reading the details of GoNetwork's fud.

The dev team already have revise the ico crowdsale structure. It is carefully designed so that it will benefit both the early investors while it does not penalize the current investors.

Q&A

1.Minimum quantity to buy from Tokem
The minimum investment will be around $70


2. Will they be blocked for 12 months?
No, the initial implementation and promotion of the platform and to its first release will be in 12 months. About the tokens they are only released (to transfer) after the sale ends.


3. Is there a verification process before buying
The ICO will be 100% public sale, meaning that no whitelisting process will be necessary, only the KYC details. The crowdsale will open on December 13. If you want to stay updated you can register to our newsletter directly here ...> https://appcoins.io/


4. If there is verification that happens if it is not achieved and I have already bought ??
If you can not see your tokens please follow the instructions to view/access your APPC balance in MEW as mentioned in the previous post

Thank you for answering all the question they are very helpfull in build a base about supporting and buying the coin. Many people will have this questions but now they are solved.

I feel this project is a very high potential and I am looking forward to support it. As the Apps in the world  grow thid project will face success. And I am also waiting for a signature campaign where I could support it.

[Maingtoled1958]

This is a very legit app which will grow its importance
very fast in the future and will also be available for paying at any platform. The main feature is that it has a Aptoide support and the appcoin is an integrated function of it will is a very big advantage. I think on should try to invest in this project.

There's one thing that I don't understand. You claim this coin is a circular economy. But what is stopping developers from withdrawing the coins

My $0.05 cents.
At a certain point, the developer can withdraw funds but there will be always new developers and new users buying coins, leading to the appreciation of the token.
So, we can see as a circular economy with some entry points (users and developers buying tokens) and some exit points (developers cashing out).
Comparing with other markets, App Store market represents a huge demand because there are 2 billion users using smartphone and a significant part of them (in more developed markets) buys things inside the apps.
The total amount of the transactions are $58B yearly for all app stores and is growing.
