Initial Coin Offering (ICO) reviews

Hello everyone. Today we will review a project called cartaxi. It is going to ICO. Right now it at the stage of pre-ICO. The reason why I picked up this project because it is one of those project that are already working projects with an MVP and other applications in apple store and google play. Let`s see what this project has. The team had created an application that allows car drivers to get their car towed to a place where it can be repaired. Right now it is a trend that a lot of services like that are being aggregated and the leads from real calls from people are forwarded to the nearest service provider available. This industry is not an exception. Reviewing this project I see that the team has understanding of where their project is going, they did their marketing research and are aiming towards markets of Russia, China and USA. You can see the team here on their website. The team is quite big - over 40 people. They have names and descriptions with linkedin profiles. The t...

Today we will review another ICO. This project is in the stage of pre-ICO. The reason why I chose this project is cause I like there website and they have descent white paper. This project - UTRUST - does a new revolutionary payment platform. They will help people to use fiat currencies to pay in their tokens and at the same time provide an ecosystem for solving disputes and do it faster than it is done by services as bitpay. Now what I like about this website and about this project is they have partners, nice video describing the project, they also have a strong team that makes me think they have all chances to succeed. And everybody in the team has linked in profiles which proves they are real people. It is nice to work with real people at our ICO age. Reviewing their white paper you will notice that they have description of the problem and clear explanation how they will solve the problem. They will try to make an ecosystem for ecommerce and cryptocurrencies to make it mor...

Today is August 27 and we are reviewing another ICO. It is DES - Anti Scam. DES is decentralized escrow service. Reviewing their website I kinda figured out that the guys are from Russia. Not because of their profiles. Just look at their titles here: Main Steps, For Whom. Let's take a look at main steps. Guys have a RoadMap. They will do smart contracts. I believe. Yes. Potentially could be done. They have big enough team to start with. The founder is also a founder of russian blockchain association which is not bad. If you will go to the website of this association you will see that there are lot of representatives from a number of cities in Russia. What  I like here is that they have a bunch of advisors. This list of advisors and list of people who are joining the team makes me think that they gonna do what they are planning to. I do not want to take too much of your time reviewing this project. I will leave it all up to you. I just want to wish good luck to this team durin...

Today is August 26th and we are reviewing another ICO. This time it will be commodity ad network.com. The first that attracted my attention was the amount of languages that this website is presented in. Talking about concept of this project if you remember a couple days ago we were reviewing hubii.network which is a marketplace for content creators to sell their work directly to distributors without resellers and with low commission. This project is close and the idea is close the difference is if hubii.network was more in general about media and stuff. This project is more about alternative video. You can see the team presented on their website. They have almost every social network they might need. They have understanding of how they will be doing business. I am not sure about their business model and if I would invest into this project. They have a white paper. There is one thing that made me confused is this: "A network of the Gоod Guys, for the Good Guys". Well...

Today is August 25th and we are reviewing ICOs again. I want to attract your attention to the fact that there is about 6 or 7 ICOs starting today. I had reviewed all of them. The first thing that was on my mind is it a joke or not? Some of them obviously are a joke. Instead of making a very critical video about all of them I decided to pick on that might worth reviewing on TokenSell channel. This project is called Godzillion. It is done by chilean company. They are from South America. This is first project that we review from Chile. It is ethereum based token that will unable to vote, issue and distribute the tokens within ethereum virtual machine. You can review video with this guy. He seems to be very confident about what he is saying. I do not want to go too deep through their whitepaper. You can do it by yourself. I just want to mentioned that guys had placed a lot of information on their website. I can not agree with the way they designed it: colors, backgrounds. It is mor...

Today I want to review a project that is going to ICO right now. It is called hubbi network. It is blockchain based decentralised content marketplace. You know when I first was reviewing this project I was thinking that since we are right now in the digital age and we are so used to it we do not realize what does it take to product a good piece of content. Right now everybody is overloaded with content that is reaching us in social networks, different news website, portals, ect. Sometimes we stick with some resources that contains good content. Usually this type of content is produced by professionals. By those people who understand what they are doing. This project in my own opinion can possible make this situation better. Hubbi network will allow a lot more professionals to be reached by content distributors and make sort of new wave in that industry. And may be change the situation for people who produce the content to make more revenue from it. The content that is being discus...

Today we will review another ICO. It is an ICO of decentralized ticket marketplace with low commission and additional costs. The name of it TokenStub. Let`s move on directly to the team. Oh, before that let us review the key dates. So the ICO was announced on August 6th, the presale started on August 18th, today the ICO starts and then the revolution begins. Let's see who will do this revolution. This team got a very interesting combination cause the second person mentioned is a lawyer. They do not have any links to their linkedin profiles. When I searched for Sean McHale I got around 40 results and none of them looked like him. Too bad. Let`s jump to the white paper and review the Crowdsale details. They are planning to create 200 million stubs which is their coin. They are planning to raise 15 million. So they have a hard cap which is nice to know how much money you are planning to spend. And this is where the money will go: half of it will go towards development, 23% for...

Hello Everybody. Today I want to review the project that is called liquid assets token. The reason why I want to talk about is because we are joining the tokenization of economy. LAToken is one of the projects that already has a MVP and will be one of the projects that might change the economical situation around depts. Because of this type of companies appeared banking system and huge banks started to attract attention to blockchain technology early this year. To make a long story short this company is proposing to tokenize real eatate, peaces of artwork and sell them partially to investors. For instance, if you want to buy out your house and instead of paying percentage to the banks you can buy it out by selling tokens and then buy out tokens with less commission during next years. Lets review what they have. I do not want to go through their website too deeply. You can see all that interesting information, eye catching animation. They have a preaty strong team from what I l...

Hello everyone. Today we are reviewing an ICO project called Tracor. Instead of reviewing 6 ICOs like I did yesterday I decided to pick on that I think might worth our while and that might have a breakthrough in the next few years. This project is dedicated to logistic industry and what they are saying is that they will revolutionize the self-storage, tracking and logistic industry in the future. First of all I want to mention a couple of mistakes or things that the guys did not think about. On the homepage I did not find anything about the team. But I found it in their whitepaper but without any links to linkedin profiles or any other personal social networks so we can reach them. The second thing why didn't they put any countdown here. It usually motivates and creates sort of urgency. Let`s review their whitepaper and see what they are planning to do. Tracor is a decentralized platform allowing users to connect, buy & sell their storage capacity, and buy & sel...

Hello. We continue review ICOs and the last one for August 20th is DetectorToken. Those guys have already and MVP. They have some sort of an algorithm working in the background and sending trading signals to their customers in chats or via sms. You can see how their signals look like on their home page. From what I understood they are sending signals from currency exchanges and betfair. Lets take a look at what they are planning to do. Right now they are raising money and adding slack support. Then in September they are planning to do eveyrthing by subscription. At least they have a business model. Right now their website contains sort of admin panel where you can change your profile, track your balance, change your password. You can also connect your profile to telegram bot to receive signals. Lets take a look at their team. Two of three members contain links to their linkedin profiles and they had mentioned that they have something to do with detector token. So they are part o...

We are doing reviews of ICOs and we got an example of how not to do an ICO website. Welcome to torrent chain project. First, I want to mention that I like the idea of mixing blockchain and torrents. You can share your opinion in the comments to this video. But looking at this website scroll down. Crowdsale details. Ok. Torrent distribution. It is good to have percentage of how many tokens will go where. Cause here it is not obvious how many percentage it is: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 percents. Ok. Userfriendly, rewarding. Great. They had described how they will be doing it. But let's take a look at their RoadMap. They had started in 2015 and in July 2017 they had started security and privacy audit. But they are planning to finish it guess when. After the crowdsale. I do not like that idea. I would like to see that report before the crowdsale will start. In any case lest see further they have on their website. Look at the team. No names, nothing is clickable. How should I understan...

Today we are reviewing ICOs and the next project to review is Feeed. This project is about fundraising money for small startups. Hold on is not the ICO about raising money for startups? Well. Let's move on. You can see this nice video that those guys had created for us. You can also find it in the project Wiki. The first thing I did not find on the homepage is the RoadMap. What they say is that RoadMap is on trello. But everything is in progress even the RoadMap. Cmon guys everything should be there including the RoadMap. Make it public and very concrete with milestones. Lets see their trello. Roadmap is in "Progress" stage. That is what he meant. Moving on. What those guys are planning to do is allow people  to vote, to invest into projects and according to their whitepaper here is the functionality that will be in their system: - opinions about project (like kickstarter) - upvoting for the most trusted startups (like product hunt) - follow the evolu...

Hello. We continue discussing projects that are going to ICO on August 20th and the next project is Umbrella Coin. I went through their whitepaper and their website and first I want to talk about the team. This is the first website where I see almost the whole team on one photo. What I notice from their linkedin profiles is that most of them are working for Microsoft right now. Only Terry Tata and SOn Nguyen had mentioned that they are in Umbrella Coin project. Let's move forward. What are they doing? They are sort of revolutionizing the insurance industry by bringing the blockchain and letting community decide if you should receive your insurance payment or not. The crowd intelligence is a nice idea. We like that idea. We can wish good luck to those guys. To be honest I do not like their website with that background and scrolling thing. But what I can tell you exactly that they have very clear videos on their homepage. They are pretty active in social networks. Howeve...

Today August 20th and we are going to review another project that is going to ICO. Current project we are reviewing Imperium intends to revolutionise betting industry. What they are trying to do right now is do the same functionality that betting exchanges have already but make it with zero fees. I have several questions. First of all, is how they are going to compete with such big players like betfair.com which are in that industry for many years. Of course betfair takes up to 6% commission. But still it has being stable. Let`s see what they propose. No fees, no limits, no risks. No risks with the blockchain. It all depends on miners you know. Let`s move on. The team decided to stay anonymous. It is not a bad idea if you are doing a betting project. But if you are planning to raise money on ICO how can we make sure that those guys know enough and have skill to complete this project. Of course the answers to the Frequently asked questions makes me think that they did good job ...
