Most promising projects in 2018

iPowow is looking to fund a plan to create a cryptocurrency that would pay people for watching their favorite shows. The currency would also compensate viewers for sharing data — quickly proving to be a precious commodity — about who they are, what they watch and what they buy. And if all of this wasn’t buzzworthy enough, the iPowow folks are planning to use blockchain as the technological foundation for their new business. What iPowow calls HIT tokens and the HIT protocol can benefit the TV business by offering three solutions to problems such as viewers watching on noncommercial platforms, inconsistent cross-platform audience measurement and a lack of data about TV advertising, iPowow CEO Gavin Douglas said. Benefits for Viewers, Advertisers With the HIT protocol, viewers get paid to watch shows, content creators and networks engage viewers and generate more revenue from digital viewing, and advertisers get transparency and audience insights. It would work this way: A viewer tunes in a show and sees a graphic that says they’re getting five HIT tokens. The viewer either clicks his or her remote or goes to a second screen to activate an account and accept the tokens. The viewer must have granted GDPR consent to share data. Later, the viewer can go to a digital shopping plaza to buy things with the HIT tokens. A number of large retailers have expressed interest in letting viewers use HIT tokens to buy real merchandise, Douglas said. Jill Rosengard Hill, executive VP at market research firm Magid, said there was potential to the idea of a reward program for TV. “There is a segment of consumers who are open to the exchange of their data for a fee,” she said. A recent Magid study found 33% of mobile users said they would give up access to their data in exchange for a discount. “Marketers are looking at loyalty programs or the exchange of coins, gifts or money to drive loyalty and to drive tunein,” she said.There have been previous efforts to create reward systems for watching TV. GetGlue, which rewarded viewers with stickers, was acquired in 2012 by Viggle, a mobile app that offered points that could be exchanged for gift cards or access to premium content. For the past seven years, iPowow has been in what it dubbed the “participation TV” business, creating interactive features that can be sponsored for 200 shows on networks such as ABC, Fox and USA, local stations and digital video platforms such as Facebook Live and Twitch. For Twitch, iPowow created an extension that lets viewers pay gamers they’re watching live and have input into how games will be played. Douglas said iPowow has demonstrated that its system works whether on the first screen or second screen, and on all platforms — linear broadcast, VOD, over-the-top and online. He hopes to raise the millions iPowow will need in August. Blockchain Migration for HIT iPowow plans to build its new HIT protocol on a blockchain foundation and migrate its current technology to blockchain as well by year end. Blockchain enables the cryptocurrency HIT tokens, which cost less to distribute initially than real dollars and also provide transparency, immutability and consistency while decentralizing account information. The HIT protocol will also be open, allowing other companies to develop apps, which will increase the utility of the system. iPowow has been scanning the horizon but doesn’t see any competitor ready to implement an effective TV rewards program. “The way we see it is, someone going to do this,” Douglas said. “Someone’s going to produce a media engagement token that’s global and covers all video interactions, and people get rewarded for watching and they can go spend it on things. We say it’s going to be us, so that’s what we’re going to do.These are our official social platforms:

It can be said that 2018 is full of good and promising projects, but because there are too many ICOs, it makes competition very tight and difficult, making good projects fail to achieve softcap.

I think Yumerium and NEL network is the most promising projects for investment in 2018, these projects do not have a decent competition.

I have invested in couple of blockchains projects. Some a doing well, some not. So, Zilliqa, PChain, Quarkchain. By the marketing, quarkchain doing better than others.

This is a very cool and strong idea. There are a lot of speculators and intermediaries now. Because of this, the price of goods is constantly growing. If this system works then it will be of great benefit to many people.

If he prediction of bounty hunters is not necessarily because we as a bounty are just trying and choosing which ones can benefit us more, but that is all an opinion and hope that is not yet certain, hopefully our choice is right and as expected.

So many promising projects so you can check out the development team and product of the project that really potential for future consumers and you choose them to invest.

[Ironmaiden]

DataBlockchain and Yumerium can be your choice for investment,
in my opinion these two projects are very good concept,
and I'm sure to be the top ICO 2018

Spectrecoin (XSPEC) is the most promising project. what drew me into spectrecoin is that it already has good tech compared to other privacy coins, the developers are come of the most professional and highly qualified, the community and developers actually truly care about privacy, but most importantly is that it has the most room to grow compared to other privacy coins.

By offering viewers with a direct path from content to commerce, we also provide content providers with invaluable knowledge about what content is most successful in generating revenue. Historically, brands and content providers needed to sort through many disparate data sources to make conjectures about which content led to purchases. By connecting to the HIT Protocol, content providers no longer need to guess about what is working and what isn’t, as HITs connect the dotted lines between viewing habits and product purchases.
Get Started
The entrypoint for all viewers to access their HIT balances is the “HIT Account.” To start, adoption incentives are offered for signing up to the platform, creating a profile, and referring others. Data incentives are also offered for viewers who opt-in to provide their viewing and interaction data to support their favorite shows. This provides valuable data to brands and show creators. Gamification incentives are offered for competing on participation leaderboards, and achieving consecutive login streaks. We include milestone incentives for those reaching and maintaining HITs balance milestones and leveling-up their profiles. This encourages viewers to keep track of their HITs and engage in opportunities to increase their numbers.
In addition to driving engagement and participation, fans have the opportunity to create social profiles to display their earned recognition for activity in the community. The most dedicated and active participants of the HIT community will also be first in line for feature and content test groups as the platform develops and grows, encouraging healthy competition among users.
Earn Rewards for Watching & Engaging
Viewers earn HITs by watching and interacting with shows and ads. Poles and contests are a couple of the ways viewers can engage. Loyalty and rewards incentives are presented by broadcasters, brands and advertising campaigns, customized to viewers.
Viewers can circulate HITs by spending them to influence the trajectory of a given show. This can be done by voting and by sending donations or tips to broadcasters, streamers and content creators. This active exchange of tokens, encourages viewer participation with shows as well as with each other, strengthening the show’s fan base and the health of the ecosystem.
Tools for Shows and Advertisers
In a world where sequels are king, and building on existing universes matters (both for dollars and mindshare), iPowow has the features to match the market. To drive repeat engagement, broadcasters and showrunners are given several campaign management tools. We offer the ability to create show-specific badges and achievements matched to limited-time campaigns for brands. This highly targeted marketing is especially effective with dedicated fans of ongoing series. The incentivized model powered by HITs ultimately allows for fandom to reign supreme, providing a highly effective mechanism for networks to better understand their specific audiences.
Looking to the Future
We are committed to fostering the creation of new and exciting audience engagement applications by rewarding developers with HITs for building novel solutions on our protocol. Our Source Development Kit, or SDK, and GitHub repository will enable easy scaling, pulling from and adding to the codebase. With our application distribution system, iPowow’s worldwide partnerships for the HIT Protocol will be an attractive launchpad for apps made for the HIT token. The true power of the HIT Protocol will be unlocked by allowing developers to distribute HIT-based interactive apps across a global platform.Where do I get the most up-to-date information?

most projects with solid teams, working products and a low cap can be considered promising, and there are a few ICO's as well (iMusify, cgcx, securix, tachain, ...) that can really go the distance as well

[emreunsal10]

good projects.. and i can agree with you with Datablockchain, i hope they will hit hardcap soon. i advise everyone to check their projects and make your own research.

Go and buy PECULIUM. Savings platform combining ai and blockchain. Their product AIEVE is working flawlessly. Do not miss this exceptional project. Just dyor.

[Cornett]

QuarkChain, Metronome, Dfinity, Nos, Nex …

in terms of the future of the team and the project, too much. what's the best project for? its the one who collects the most money. there are many projects of high quality. I'm confused.

The fact is that the problem in small collections of funds from investors is not because of a bad team or because of a bad idea, but it all boils down to the fact that the ico market is full of scammers and therefore investors do not invest their money even in sufficiently promising projects.

First, a content provider integrates the iPowow interface with content, such as a TV show. During the show, viewers are prompted with a call to action to participate in some way with the content they are watching. Viewers can respond to the call to action directly on the device on which they are watching the content or through a second device. Once viewers sign up to begin earning rewards, they can interact with specific elements of the show and accumulate HITs for their time and interaction. These valuable HIT tokens can then be used on the Digital Shopping Plaza to purchase physical and digital goods, access to more content, and experiences offered by our content partners.

Geonodes are a way to geofence your assets in smart contract which can have customisable level of access like 2FA, MFA, LDAP and Biometrics. The mining computer of geonode is kept in physically secure location which has a 100m radius of fencing.

The tighter integration of geolocation by GPS in TIM Blockchain provides this unique feature by which one can write smart contracts to allow/disallow it’s execution in a given geolocation. And there can be many use cases of this feature. One of which is to create specific locations where smart contract based wallets can be secured. Having telecom partners for this is going to improve the geolocation security as well. Telecoms companies use GPS to synchronize their towers. Therefore Telecoms are a natural partner for TIM.

How will Bitcoin and Ethereum benefit?
TIM is getting ready with atomic swaps and all cryptocurrencies having this interoperability can work with TIM. This way one can secure bitcoin and ethereum by geonodes. This will put an end to next 4 million bitcoins being lost to theft and losses.

Ecosystem Driven Development
Our core effort has always been to build the state of the art blockchain to enhance our enterprise partnerships. And there are so many new frontiers to cover. We want your opinion and advice on how to build the adoption roadmap. There are so many alternatives and choices. Which interoperability features should be tackled first? What level of interoperability should be developed? Should it be limited upto smart contract to smart contract based interoperability or transactions based swaps as well?

Geonodes Bids open on 11 October 2018
The Request for Proposal has been initiated for inviting bids to build the enterprise security framework. TIM Blockchain will dedicate $5M towards developing this framework.

I have made too many researches to find new high potential projects in crypto world. I have found a new project which is Spl.yt Core Foundation, a Science Blockchain-backed nonprofit operating out of Santa Monica CA, is an open-sourced smart contract-based e-commerce protocol that will support the foundation of a more efficient, transparent, and secure e-commerce system. Spl.yt will help buyers and sellers save time and money by removing middlemen functions and services through decentralizing the e-commerce stack. Spl.yt’s top smart contract capabilities include an automated global inventory system, fractional asset ownership and management, inter- marketplace reputation tracking, fair dispute resolution system, and automated affiliate marketing rewards. All of these features are powered by the blockchain, assuring anyone who buys or sells things online that they will have the most fair and efficient e-commerce experience possible.

They are developing a public social utility protocol to form the foundation for a decentralized e- commerce system. The Spl.yt protocol will help buyers and sellers save time and money by removing middlemen functions to empower e-commerce participants to achieve their economic goals. The design and intent of this protocol is such that, ultimately, it will become a self- sustaining system that is operated and governed by the community with little involvement from the Spl.yt Core Foundation.

I would recommend you to look into following two projects, I've done a through research on it and quite confident about them getting successful in the near future.
1. TV-TWO: Targeting TV advertisement industry, already have a working product and there app is available in LG and Samsung store, rated 5/5 stars on both the TV app stores.
2. PRIV: Targeting anonymity, they've been forked out of DeepOnion and following the same strategy of doing many number of airdrop rounds to community members, not doing any ICO.

According to my best project in 2018 is SCAVO, it has a serious case and the ICO investment figure is up to $ 100 million. The purpose of SCAVO is the construction of large-scale mining farms.

Spectrecoin

Lots of coins can stake, but is there a single coin that give you anonymous awards, while you're hiding your private balance in secret?
Nope

Spectrecoin will do just that:
Proof-of-Stealth algo

Basically it will allow you to stake on private anonymous stealth addresses with anonymous PoS rewards
Going to become first ever in Crypto space to do that

And that is called USP (unique selling proposition)

Once they release this then the rocket ship can launch 😂

TIM Blockchain in partnership with SOLYD and BCTCLabs is dedicating $5 Million for developing Enterprise Security Framework for all interoperable blockchains
Geonodes will make exchange operations more secure and efficient
Enterprise security is key to mass industry adoption of blockchains. So far 4 million bitcoins have been lost as per reports. And this is scary.

No valuable asset can have adoption if their theft and loss rate is 25%. And this situation will be a history very soon. Thanks to Geonodes.

unfortunately in 2018 there are very few costing projects in which one wants to invest. There were several projects in which one could invest

[jeanniej4]

In 2017 I headed into the 4th ICO. 2 failed projects, one was underdeveloped and only one quarter away from ICO. Only 1 project is successful and is giving me a profit, not much. And that successful project was underestimated by the other 3 projects at the beginning of the ICO.
So when it comes to saying that "most good ICO projects" are just relative, you can not be sure which ICO is really good with a general rating.
This year the new ICO is too much and I do not see them as good, probably investing in altcoin in the top 50 CMC will be more certain.
