Risks
Standard Ethereum risks. They do acknowledge this in their whitepaper, though: “Due to the increasing supply and adoption of new Blockchains like EOS, Stellar etc. that could potentially offer the necessary functionalities in a more efficient and/or less expensive way, we may consider using alternative solutions to the Ethereum blockchain in the future.” -1
It’s very common for online companies, such as this one, that have been around a few years, to do an ICO for their “new decentralized blockchain” business. 99% of them have failed or are currently struggling. -1
The token use case is pretty weak and doesn’t seem to stable. -1
The coolest part of their project, the oracles, aren’t even complete or operating at all yet. -3
Their roadmap is a joke. They already failed to deliver the oracles in early 2018. -2
Growth Potential Brands “pay 50% less per engagement: no middlemen, no fees, no management required. Increase your return on investment (ROI) on your social media spend.”+2
According to their whitepaper, they are successfully operating in 10 markets, and already have a strategy in place for global expansion. They have researched and ranked countries based on a wide range of criteria and will be using their information to facilitate growth over the next 3-4 years.+2
“There are no limits to the number of accounts a company can have or the number of campaigns they want to run. With Unboxed, scope is limitless.”+3
Influencer marketing is booming because it’s so effective. According to Tomoson, businesses are making $6.50 for every $1 spent.+4
They have been around since 2014. And have a leg up on the competition. +3
DispositionThere is no doubting the effectiveness of influencer marketing. Can Unboxed actually create and implement their unique AI-powered oracle solution? Well, that’s the million dollar question. 6/10
