Fake team
I tried to find any information about team, they haven't linkedin profiles, just names

okay, they have advisors


i checked information about this people, they have good reputation and they work with airlines, but i can't find any information about Bitfly.

Fake sponsors

I speak with team of some projects, and i sent messages on email, still waiting for answer, but i think but I think they are not related to Bitfly.

I talked with Tomochain admin via Telegram, they haven't idea what is Bitfly

I have used to research this project, I really suspect this is from a previously scam project - BitAir https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2336461.0

And all information about this project are suspicious. But I have not enough solid proofs to claim that project is scam.

Maybe I am not confident to show it  Tongue But I will try when I see other ICOs. Because I think there are some members here can give more solid proofs for me.

No, I mean that seem to be from the same people. You can read the analyzed market of two projects.

Quote from: BitFly
The aviation industry is arguably one of the largest industries in the world. This stems from the natural human desire and needs to move from one location to another. Presently the aviation industry represents for $2.7 trillion (3.5%) of the world's domestic product (GDP). Statistically, well over 3 billion people have transported across the globe by airlines annually.

The cryptocurrency market is developing at an astronomical rate with market capitalization values that are setting and breaking new records. Despite the frequent wobble, the market manages to command an average of up to $2 billion worth of trade transactions on a day-to-day basis. The cryptocurrency technology market is predicted to reach an estimated figure of 2 billion dollars by the year 2021.

Quote from: BitAir
In 2016 the industry grew by 3.1% while supporting 6 million additional jobs in numerous related sectors. In total, travel and tourism generated US$7.6 trillion (10.2% of global GDP) and 292 million jobs in 2016, equivalent to 1 in 10 jobs in the global economy.

The outlook for the travel and tourism sector in 2017 remains robust and will continue to be at the forefront of wealth and employment creation in the global economy. The role of travel and tourism becomes even more significant, as an engine of economic development and as a vehicle for sharing cultures, creating peace, and building mutual understanding.

Aviation Market with High Demand Growth of Passengers

IATA1 (International Air Transport Association) forecasts passenger demand to double over 20 Years and expects 7.2 billion passengers to travel in 2035, a near doubling of the 3.8 billion air travellers in 2016.

They will see an extra 1.8 billion annual passengers by 2035, with an overall market size of 3.1 billion.

I don't know where they take those data of market prediction.

And the problems, the solutions as well as the concepts are almost same.

Quote from: BitFly
BitFly is the cryptocurrency solution to the problems and challenges passengers face when it comes to purchasing airline tickets.

Quote from: BitAir
clients spend tokens to pay for travel and tourism related services such as booking airline ticket, making reservations and accessing other related services.
In fact, recently Bitair was recognized as an effective payment methods - A popular online air ticket agency.

But I think the BitFly team needs to prove that they are not the same company or organization.
