I want to know, will you at least try to invite professionals, or you will just leave it for them to sign up by themselves?

ASKfm 2.0 will be a place where you can get exclusive answers by professionals / opinion leaders / content creators. A place for learning and getting insights & perspectives from interesting people. ASKfm already has celebrities, influencers and experts on the platform, but the goal will be to attract more.

Why do you need blockchain?  

[ASKfm_official]

Why do you need blockchain?  

We are opening a high-loaded blockchain Q&A platform. That’s why we are introducing a new cryptocurrency token not on a whim but out of conceptual necessity, as without it, the product wouldn’t be able to exist. The decentralized economy we aim to create is built on tokenizing social interactions, so tokens are the life-blood of the new system.
Blockchain opens a path to democratic environments, to self-regulated economic models governed by market laws and mechanisms. Knowledge evaluation is possible within conventional systems, but for it to be fair and independent, we build it on the blockchain. A transfer of 215 million people to crypto makes this the single largest mass introduction to the future.
• Blockchain is used as a security protocol, an immutable history ledger, and a value transfer service to cash out your in-app activity.
• Humanless escrow service moves funds on pre-agreed conditions executed on the blockchain.
• User is rewarded for quality content and activity (likes, questions, reporting, inviting users, etc.) via an in-app token economy mechanism.

What is the global aim of the project?

The mission of ASKfm 2.0 is to help people share their knowledge, opinions and experience openly and independently. We are going to redefine the ways of modern communication and learning, both on the global scale and on personal and group levels.
We are building a new system of values along with a new decentralized economy in which people, their skills and knowledge become the main asset. We combine the strengths of blockchain technology, size and quality of our existing audience, and the willing participation of the best experts with economic and technical mechanisms to make that future possible even today.

What advantages does ASKfm have over the rest of crypto projects?

ASKfm 2.0 will be a place where you can get exclusive answers by professionals / opinion leaders / content creators. A place for learning and getting insights & perspectives from interesting people. Focus on sensitive, ’taboo’ issues where anonymity is appreciated.
At the time of the sale, ASKfm will be 8 years old, boasting users in 168 different countries, with over 600 million questions asked every month. These users come to ASKfm to express their identity in a conversational way, either resolving their own personal queries or by adding their expertise to discussions where it’s in demand. This proven formula has made ASKfm the largest Q&A social network in the world, but it has recently identified a method to improve its value proposition and invest further in the experience of its users.
We have a team of professionals based in Latvia, UK and Ukraine, who have successfully launched dozens of projects, work in the company from the very first day and have vast experience in launching social, dating and gaming projects and new business models. Top notch blockchain developers from Ukraine give us an opportunity to implement the most complicated tech tasks.

Who are your competitors?

Who are your competitors?

I'll need to explain more what current ASKfm is, so it will be more clear with whom ASKfm 2.0 will be competing with on the market.
Current ASKfm is a secure social network where young people can hang out together and ask for advice or opinions on anything that's on their minds, without worrying about the social barriers that exist in the offline world.
On ASKfm, there's no need to feel self-conscious or nervous about what you ask, or the answers you'll receive. What's more, the feedback comes directly from your peer group, meaning it's relevant, helpful and delivered without judgement by people that want to be heard.
It's getting opinions on which outfit to wear, or what album to listen to next.
It's finding out more about that person you like, in an anonymous way.
It's discovering the rules of social interaction in your own time, at your own pace.
Current ASKfm is a hybrid between Content generation and Messenger with Anonymity being its key differentiator. We were not competing with features of other apps, social networks and messengers directly (Instagram, Facebook, Messenger apps), but we certainly were competing for attention of our users and space in their phones.
ASKfm 2.0 is about adding more meaninful content through incentivizing the knowledge sharing, and about adding the fun learning option for users. But as a conversation goes through Q&A format we might start to compete with existing Q&A apps like Quora, and e-Learning platforms.
So, the short answer about ASKfm 2.0 competitors would be Social networks + Messenger apps (Instagram, Facebook, What's App etc), Q&A (Quora etc.) and e-learning products (Coursera, Udacity etc). Please stay tuned for the detailed positioning schemes in the whitepaper.

Why do you need token?

[ASKfm_official]

Why do you need token?

ASK token is going to be a native cryptocurrency of ASKfm 2.0. It’s a utility token that will be a unit of value exchange for users within the platform, granting them access to the internal economy of it.

Any user of the ASKfm platform owning ASKT will be able to participate in the value-based content internal transactional economy and earn tokens for providing valuable (smart, insightful, useful, creative) answers to questions. Market forces will drive the internal economy. Users will act as market players supplying and consuming knowledge. Once the consumer demand for valuable information increases, the supply will follow (and vice-versa). Thus the market will automatically regulate itself and distribute the rewards based on the value proposition.
