Hoq is it innovative?

Our founder Eran Eyal was recently asked how Shopin is different from two competitors who appear to be similar (Shping and Eligma)

Here's what he had to say (we'd link you directly to the comments on Telegram but BitcoinTalk removes posts that link there)

On Comparisons to Shping:

"Fundamentally we are turning the open web and physical stores into a distributed Amazon by enabling them with our product recommendation engines and artificial intelligence.

We then work with retailers to give uses your data back so that that data can be re-served across the web to create the ultimate personalized experience.

On the other end, users are finally in control of their data and receive a variety of different benefits through the universal shopper profile as well as a crypto for rewarding them receiving ads, performing acts of loyalty, gifting, referral of new users etc.

This is fundamentally different from that competitor, but does not really work with the retailers to onboard users and is trying to reshape consumer behavior to scan barcodes.

Fundamentally very different, Nonetheless we wish them the best of luck. Building start ups is hard, and ones that are blockchain and crypto even more so.

On comparisons to Eligma

The retailers will never adopt this and promote it to their shoppers. One of the biggest reasons: cross comparison of pricing and brands.

Brands hate this. They won’t support a product that cross-compares them to each other

I have sat with the presidents of Bloomingdales to the CEO of DuPont and I can give you this as a guarantee. There are major flaws in many of their assumptions.

For instance: that retailers will accept a range of crypto

We had to hack the business model to get around these issues. They also want to replace loyalty points. Not happening - the retailers have spent decades building their programs. We work alongside them with a view to eventually supplant them when we prove it works better.

But we don’t make it the point of the product. Their case study is a company that is crypto centric. Aaaaand it’s owned by a cofounder.

The biggest flaw by far:

With its unique features it will offer users a “one-place”, from where they can shop in all the online stores anywhere in the world, check the value of items in their household and learn the best time to sell them. Eligma will offer users a completely decentralized universal loyalty program and help transform every household into a business.

This is basically Amazon meets Shopify where there is one platform where they cross-sell merchants. More like Open Bazaar.

ICO Analysis: Shopin
Published on April 11, 2018
By Kent Hamilton

Verdicts
Current retailers are looking for a solution to compete with the likes of Amazon, and Shopin could be exactly what they are looking for. Shopin is turning the retail and e-commerce web into a decentralized Amazon, built on the blockchain, with a universal shopper profile and cryptocurrency. Based in New York and opening offices in Korea as well as having successful pilots, Shopin is aiming to become one of the blockchain success stories of 2018.

Risks
    Even with a larger team than some ICOs and Shopin offsetting 30%-50% of retailers’ initial contracts to jumpstart token adoption, a $50 million USD hard cap is still on the high side for an ICO in today’s market. -1
    The team has the required experience from both business and blockchain to be a successful ico and it’s definitely a good sign that the team members are listing Shopin first on their LinkedIn profiles, but most of the team still has outside obligations which don’t allow for 100% of their time to be devoted to the project. -0.75
    Although Shopin lists a large number of highly experienced team members and advisers, a token allocation of 30% is still considered high in comparison with other ICOs. However, this does include the seed investors allocation which is normally included in the token sale section. -1

Growth Potential
    Shopin has already engaged in two successful pilots with retailers Bed, Bath and Beyond and Ermenegildo Zegna resulting in over 719,000 sign ups with Shopin customers purchasing 22% more than customers without a Shopin profile. +4
    Shopin was voted the Best ICO and Startup by CoinAgenda Global. It was also the Winner of Best ICO at the 2018 North American Bitcoin Conference in Miami, FL. +3
    Already approached by significant payment processors for partnerships, Shopin aims to be available to over 3,000 retailers and 20 million consumers. +3

Disposition
The Shopin project has won multiple ICO awards and boasts a stellar team of executives and advisers. It employs offices around the globe, partnerships soon to be announced, and recently completed a successful pre-sale. There is massive upside potential and rewards for retailers, consumers and investors if shopping with Shopin comes to fruition and is able to achieve mass adoption. Shopin receives a 7.25 out of 10 rating.

This is very good result!
