[ANN][ICO] AIRPOD - Transforming the Travel and Napping industries

[HuP9RX]

 Could you please provide more detail about the project...starting with the team of this project? And how can I see the product? Or its prototype?

[KaDeGrOB(1)]

 I ask a stupid question, but still. How will you collect profit? Maybe it was answered before, haven’t checked it.

[OMLETovich]

Looks like the thread of project is still very quiet. If I look at the thread bounty is not much different, I think you should do something to make the project bustling and look more alive. I think this is indispensable for the future of this project.

[UnIvErS]

Hey, interesting project! Is there any video, demo or something similar where we could see the current product?

[EnterTheLight]

 Interesting project. And already has people interested in it. This is a positive moment.
Unfortunately, from a whitepaper, I still do not understand your concept of making a profit, and also did not understand what benefit I will get when buying your tokens?

What is the ICO needed for? Marketing? Or maybe granted users?

This is a good question! Granted getting users is the hardest part and once you have users you can come up with something. Either way, would be interested to hear what the devs say about it.

[supernva]

do you have a prototype?

[AirPod_project]

do you have a prototype?

Prototype is just being produced. Please follow our communication channels to be in touch with development.

This is a good question! Granted getting users is the hardest part and once you have users you can come up with something. Either way, would be interested to hear what the devs say about it.

Granted users are a part of the concept. But the most important part why ICO:

a) collecting funds needed to kick of the project that will be distributed like this:

61% Production and distribution
17% Marketing
15% Company operations
5% DAPP Platform development
2% Legal

As you can see the main part of budget will be used for Production of new AirPods as this drives the APOD-Crypto-Economy.

b) We see the potential of BC use wider than typical ICO. Beside implementation of our token (which is also one of the ways to rent our Airpod), the BC will be used in the development or DApp platform. Primary use of the DApp platform is general management, economic overview, and control of the individual AirPod unit(s). At the same time it is enabling complete transparency, helping us control and grow our business. More about this is written in our WP on pages: 31,32, 36, 37, 38.
In addition BC enables processes on DApp platform (below) faster, cheaper and more transparent than ever:

OLD WAY

• Auditing.
• Preparation and coordination of legal opinions and contracts (the relationship between participants).
• Signing agreements.
• Sales (trade) "rights" on profits made by Airpod unit (process).
• Transparency - tracking and permissions.
• Cross border Payments.

VS BLOCKCHAIN

• Smart Contract and token solves all of the mentioned problems.

This one is much more important as blockchain is essential ingredient needed for exponential growth out of airports and establishment of world-wide network in other public spaces and thus transforming travel and napping industries.

Unfortunately, from a whitepaper, I still do not understand your concept of making a profit, and also did not understand what benefit I will get when buying your tokens?

The shortest answer to your question is: there are 2 ways:
a) as token holder/owner. The potential increase of value is in execution of: as we split the received FIAT (payment for rent): using 50% for our company costs and the remaining 50% for buying Tokens on exchange at market price and placing sell orders (sell wall) at equivalent value of $2 in both ETH/APOD and BTC/APOD pairings. While the number of distributed AirPods and users will grow the frequency of Tokens we buy from the Exchange grows, as a result, the value of APOD token will automatically increase over time. This simply means that more AirPods are installed and more users are generated, the frequency of Token buyback from the exchange and placing them back at a higher price, will increase with the price of APOD Token.
b) as ICO contributor you will be able to convert APOD tokens to a Sponsorship Program for each installed AirPod unit for an indefinite time period thus establishing a profit-sharing relationship (Reward), giving you the possibility to manage unit(s) and own the right to collect fees in APOD Tokens. This simply means you are eligable to collect profits from profit generated by AirPod unit(s). It is like owning mining machine but better/more profitable.

[AirPod_project]

Do you have the referral program? Also, what are the benefits of holding APOD tokens? These questions are the only one that obsessing me now.

You have an answer to token question in a message above under point a) and b) .

Please check the team in the first message of this thread or on our website: www.air-pod.io.

As I´ve seen from the roadmap, your target of 1000 airpods installed by 2021 is too small. But that´s fine, at least you are not promising too much here. That will just cater one airport alone. Also, can you post the video link once you unveil the prototype this April? Thanks.

[circlesseeker]

Really interesting project! Looking forward to it.

[Lektai]

Nice project in the making here...why didn't i think of this??

You are right about being conservative in numbers. For an individual airport for example Dubai as international airport with most traffic around 31 AirPods are planned. 284 world airports are target market for our capsule as shown in Whitepaper. Yes we will show the prototype publicly.

A couple of questions about your tokens:
0.8% will be reserved for the liquidity fund.
12% will be reserved for the team.
These tokens will be at the disposal of the same persons?
If not all tokens are sold, what will you do with unsold tokens? I wasn’t watching for a while, interested if something has changed.

Look at the messages above, they will sell all unsold tokens for $2 per 1 APOD. It’s not an ICO in the ordinary sense, it’s a crowdsale, so their missin is to distribute all the tokens issued.

I can answer the second part of the question: the unsold tokens will be sold at the price $2, according to the whitepaper.
As for the first part, I don't really know, but I don't think they will belong to the same people.
