Experty Crypto Uber for Knowledge Sharings

About Experty

Our mission is to encourage the adoption of cryptocurrency on a global scale by creating an intuitive, easy to use application that is suitable for wide scale usage. We expect mass adoption within the next 3 years. Anyone who needs to make a consultation via the Experty app will also have a cryptocurrency wallet in their pocket.

Our current focus is on solving the talent crisis in the blockchain community by allowing experts to monetize their skills through a skype-like voice and video application. Payments are handled through an automated smart contract system using Experty’s native token EXY. This will let companies obtain the talent they need, allowing the blockchain community to continue to expand and flourish.

WHY USE EXPERTY?

1. Instant access
   There are a lack of incentives to share phone numbers with strangers and answer their calls. Experty aims to solve this problem. Through Experty any influencer, professional, or expert can grant instant access to their knowledge from anywhere in the world to anyone in the world.
2. Instant answers
   Calls can be made over Experty with very little setup. This means that answers from qualified experts can be obtained at short notice. Per minute rates are set by publicly rated experts, and refunds can be given via the smart contract if they fail to provide adequate service.
3. Instant payment
   Experty allows experts to be paid instantly for time they spend on a call, without going through third party intermediaries. Callers don’t have to pay upfront, as payment is handled during the call through our smart contract system.

Product

For now they’ve got their Minimum Viable Product ready, so it’s a big advantage for this project. Product itself has great plans and should be launched at Q1 2018 at beta stage for mobile platforms. Web Application will be released at the end of 2018.

Use of Blockchain

Blockchain usage is limited to the traditional technology’ features. Experty.io basically is a messenger with integrated video and audio calls, so blockchain in it is not necessary element. They are using it to integrate payment infrastructure within the messenger.

Whitepaper

Whitepaper is big enough to make all details for the project clear to the average user. There are use cases of the platform, technical overview and details regarding future development of the product.

Roadmap

Roadmap is one of the best in compare with other ICOs. It’s very long and includes a lot of details about their development process. Also it has pretty well graphic design. Starts from the foundation of the company and ends in 2019 with full functionality implemented in the end product.

Compliance

Internal token EXY declared as a utility token to be compliant with most of the jurisdictions laws. EXY will be used for all payments on the platform, including payments between knowledge seekers and providers, access to premium features, and deposits on calls scheduled in advance. Later on as more features will come up more ways to use tokens will appear. Of course, speculative usage is also allowed.

Token Sale

When Experty.io was preparing their documents for an ICO, ETH price about $300 so declared HardCap in ETH now has value almost 3 times higher than it was at $300/ETH. HARDCAP: $ 9 000 000 or 33 000 ETH (whichever is lower) Basic price is 0.001 ETH per token. Allocation is the following: 40% for SOFTWARE DEVELOPMENT; 5% LEGAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE FEES; 40% MARKETING; 15% LONG TERM RESEARCH TEAM. 3% of tokens are reserved for bounty and airdrop events.

Dock.io Decentralized professional Data Exchanges

About dock.io

Data is The World’s Most Valuable Resource
User data is the core value of all consumer facing apps. Centralized platforms mine and productize data for their own agendas, leaving control in the hands of a few companies. At dock.io we believe in this value being shared between users and apps to create a more connected and decentralized internet.

The Consequences of Closed Networks
A person’s profile and information lives on hundreds of apps which are all closed networks and centralized sources. These apps control data at their will, while users and other companies are left with limited opportunities.

Users Have Limited Opportunities

• Inconsistent information
  Most people have dozens of profiles online, many of which haven’t been updated in years, resulting in inconsistent information floating around the web.
• Lost value and opportunities
  The inability to transfer value in the form of experiences, reputations and reviews, means losing out on opportunities.
• No control
  Apps own and control user information within their platforms. They change rules constantly at their consent and even share user data via partnerships without user’s knowledge. Users have little to no control over what centralized apps do with their data.

Companies Are Stifled From Innovating

• Cold start challenges
  Building a product in this space is extremely difficult due to the “cold start” factor. Every platform relies on the same data, and is required to build their own source from zero.
• Centralized platforms dictate the rules
  Platforms have full control over the information they store, and are increasingly making it harder for third-party apps to access.

Product

Dock.io makes it possible for users to transfer any type of information between apps or platforms and keep their information up to date everywhere. The dock.io app will serve as a connector between apps in the ecosystem, allowing users to manage their information and preferences regarding how information is shared or synced. The app is currently in alpha.

The dock.io protocol makes it possible for a third party application to receive push updates from a user about activity on another application, and send back its own updated state. It also makes it possible for third party applications to use business application data (task management, collaboration, file sharing) to assess individual work history and performance, and to create reputation scores, network centrality scores, performance reviews, or even vouch for whether an individual works at a specific company.

In dock.io, tokens will be used to incentivize applications to share their data rather than hoard it. Tokens will not be used to incentivize users to share data with applications. When a user sends data from one application to another, the requesting application will pay a fee for access to the data (first to the delivering application, then to be burned). Users will not have any monetary incentive to interact with the product or their data; their benefit will come from having control over their data. The company does currently reward users for inviting friends to the network, to help with early network growth, and plans to continue such efforts until a substantial user base is reached. App fee structures are not discussed. There are no platform fees or rent extraction; the company is funded solely via the token sale.

Notable dangers of the model, stated explicitly in the whitepaper, are with regard to applications monopolizing user data or or sharing it without approval, thus effectively undermining the users’ control over their own data, but the model is designed to disincentivize such behavior.

Use of Blockchain

The dock.io app serves as a connector between apps in the ecosystem. Token costs, as well as any exit fees, will be denominated in Fiat, and a centralized oracle will provide live exchange rates to the dock.io smart contract.

Tokens will be used to incentivize applications, not users, to share data. Users will have no monetary incentive, but will benefit from having control over their data.

Dock.io utilizes the IPLD2 specification developed for IPFS to perform content addressable data exchange. The unencrypted delta’s of the data format updates are hashed, versioned, and anchored to the Ethereum blockchain using a modified specification of the Chainpoint open standard. This provides data integrity, making it possible for applications to verify the validity of data format updates without exposing the data itself. By encrypting the updates to the different applications’ public keys, the user remains in full control of who receives push updates. (Also, any account can sign the on-chain data format version hashes of any other account, and applications may require the signatures of certain other applications for verification.) Users can also choose to publish unencrypted updates and data to IPFS directly, so as to make them freely accessible. All versioning of the data formats will happen client-side and off-chain. The first implementation will use simple GIT4; the end-goal is a versioned key-value store similar to Noms5.

Dock.io data formats are essentially “the equivalent of microformats for Ethereum smart contracts”.

Whitepaper

Whitepaper is concise yet detailed, and presents a coherent business model and technical solution overall, but not a concrete development timeline. An unrevealing roadmap is provided elsewhere (on Medium). Whitepaper candidly discloses and explains underlying risks and complexities.

Some aspects of the model are still a bit unclear or difficult to understand, and perhaps should be explained better, particularly the token economics, but it appears that quite a bit of thought has gone into creating a token model that supports a truly distributed data economy.

Roadmap

The currently available roadmap lists the following:

Jan 2018: Release of the dock.io app (currently in alpha) and Rewards program.

Q1 2018: Partnership announcements (currently Remote.com, FundRequest, and SmartRecruiters are mentioned on the website) and Token Sale.

Q2 2018: Remote.com Partner Integration followed by additional partner integrations.

Q4 2018: Network Data Exchange – applications will be able to exchange data via DOCK tokens with encrypted packages over the IPFS network.

Compliance

Generally, the DOCK token provides applications with access to other applications’ user based data. Applications which are also token holders can signal on their contracts which data formats they accept via a simple list with data format names. DOCK token holders also gain voting rights, allowing them to introduce new proposals and vote on the future development roadmap of the protocol, but the mechanism by which this happens (submission and voting process, governance structure, fund allocation, etc.) is yet to be clarified. Token supply is deflationary via burn mechanism.

The company is working with Deloitte, a big four accounting firm, to ensure it is optimally managing funds, as well as with two top US law firms to ensure it is doing everything it can to be compliant. SAFTs are used for presale investors, as well as KYC for every investor, and a few regions are prevented from participating. At the time of token distribution, the network will be live with the full voting utility.

Token Sale

• Total Supply: 1 Billion tokens
• Token Price: $0.07
• Hard Cap: $20M USD (includes both private pre-sale and public sale). The company has already raised $12M through the presale and has a very high likelihood of reaching the $20M target.
• Token Distribution: 30% for sale, 30% for ecosystem incentivization, 20% for the team (2 year vesting), 10% for the company’s future use (2 year lock), 6% for investors, 4% for advisors (2 year vesting).
• Minimum investment in the presale was $200k, and all presale investors received the same terms: 40% bonus, and 50% of all tokens locked for a 4 month period.
• The public sale will have an individual max cap on participation, to be set after KYC is completed.
• Use of funds: 60% for research and development, 25% for marketing, sales, and biz dev, 10% for operations, and 5% for legal, compliance, and governance. The company is being funded solely via the token sale, as well as the 10% reserve for future use.
• Whitelist: February 8, 2018, Sale: February 21, 2018. KYC Required.

TruePlay B2B Platform for online gambling Business .

About TruePlay

TRUEPLAY TECHNOLOGIES

The honesty control system is based on blockchain technology that allows controlling the invariability of the game results. Now casinos cannot tank the game results or rig the algorithm of the game according to the player strategy.

Using blockchain technologies as a form of currency, webmasters have an opportunity to control financial flows and be sure in honesty and transparency working with all the casinos under the platform.

At the moment, a large part of the functionality is realized and ready to integration with existing casino. Further development of the platform is regulated by Roadmap. The main part of development is the use of own blockchain in the future, which will be adapted to the needs of the gambling business. Node holders will ensure decentralization of TruePlay blockchain. They will confirm transactions and then be rewarded for it.

TRUEPLAY STRATEGY

TruePlay has stood as a part of the global online gambling market. This’s a market with the high indicators:

• 85 countries have already legalized online gambling at the legislative level
• 49 bn$ made an annual revenue from online gambling in 2017
• 82 bn$ will make the volume of the online gambling market by 2022

Many partners thanks to a huge experience surround TruePlay. Moreover, they’re the market leaders:

• Gamingtec – a world-level platform for creating and launching online casinos
• NetEnt – one of the most popular game providers of the world with a turnover of more than 150 million euros
• Microgaming – more than 450 slots in 45 languages
• Pokerdom – one of the leaders of online poker in the former CIS countries
• Spinomenal – developed more than hundreds of HTML5 slots

The detailed business plan of the platform is developed of TruePlay analytics. It reduces the risks and includes opportunities for the platform development.

A separate aspect is the token economics. TruePlay analytics modeled high-grade economy of the token that includes the cooperation with all the participants: exchanges, players, token holders, node holders, gambling operators, and webmasters.

At the moment TruePlay is well ahead not only ongoing ICO by technical characteristics but successfully completed ICO as well.

The first pilot project was launched on the TruePlay platform and already received a license to organize gambling. Fairplay.io is operated by Goldenrod Securities Ltd, which is licensed and regulated by the Kahnawake Gaming Commission.

Carding, payments from stolen plastic cards are an old problem for gambling site operators. Currently more than 33% of operators point to this problem in the segment (according to a survey conducted by the CASEXE research department). Operators are practically powerless against this type of fraud, as they can not prove the fact of providing services, even if the payment is made by the cardholder himself.

Operators can not pay wins to players instantly for various reasons. They need time to check documents, win legitimacy and no fraud on the player’s side. Game operators and providers invest huge amounts of money in licensing, brand building, and gaining the trust of players. At the same time, as soon as the brand became popular, soon there was a copy of the project that seemed indistinguishable from the original, but with a changing math game and problems in paying the victory. Such copies undermine the brand’s reputation, selecting some of the ever fraudulent audiences. These players will never again believe in the original project.

New operators must build long-term trust relationships with affiliates, and invest big budgets in marketing to get quality traffic for the project. To start as a new operator, significant investment in licenses, marketing and into the organization of operating activities is required. Therefore, often, new projects do not have enough reserves to pay big wins, expect to get the money first and form the necessary backup reserves.

Players who prefer to play with big bets are faced with various inconveniences when making large payouts. Due to the limits and limits of banks and processing companies, they must divide small payments, and often provide supporting documentation for each payment. All this takes time and creates additional costs.

Game operators and providers do not publish full statistics of all games, thus reducing the player’s chance to analyze real game results. layers have no chance to check the integrity and impartiality of the game results. No one gave them such tools. It is widely believed that casinos can change the outcome of the game, for example, depending on the size of the wager, resulting in a successive defeat for the player. In fact, every gambling has a mathematical expectation of less than 100%, and gives the casino a long time benefit. But even a small percentage of dishonest establishments can shape the field of negative information across the industry.

The main task faced by game providers is to increase player turnover rates with the constant expansion of player audiences. Nowadays, as a result of the lags of big companies, the segment of players who want to play with cryptocurrency is not completely closed. Maximum technical accessibility of the game, especially this applies to areas with poor or unstable internet connection. The slowness of major operators in terms of integration of new games.

For affiliates, the operator has always been a “black box” and potentially distorts game and financial statistics, to reduce the amount of reward partner payouts. Over time, dishonest operators remove affiliate players to affiliates that cause players to become games. For an affiliate, it looks like the new player stopped playing. The operator, at the same time, stops paying his prize partner and receives 100% of the profit. Partner delays and restrictions on payment for any reason.

Operators may no longer freeze reserves that can be used for marketing and loyalty programs for players. A unique honesty control system based on blockchain technology allows players to check the independence of the results of the bet made: the early generation of a series of game rounds before the start of the game while maintaining the hash in the blockchain allows the player to ensure unchanged results from player bets.

Operators will no longer delay payments for a variety of reasons – the TruePlay platform ensures ALL winning payments received during the game from carriers connected to TruePlay. This will eliminate the need for a long and complicated documentation check of each individual project, for all players on the Trueplay platform.

Aworker multi-chain Verified Data protocol .

About Aworker

Aworker is a multi-chain verified data protocol for applications creation where people control their information. We connect blockchain technology to the real world by providing decentralized reputation network for the business and people.

Aworker is developed to:

• Create a unified standard of data storage and reputation of people
• Give people an opportunity to control the data in one place and receive a reward when selling the information.
• To extend the development of blockchain technology by solving such applied tasks as hiring employees, checking information about candidates, storing the most important information in the blockchain (certificates, diplomas, and other documents).

For these reasons Aworker creates:

1. Multi-chain verified data protocol for applications creation, where the information about people is needed.
2. Decentralized applications Aworker. Aworker P2P job marketplace with skills verification and a system of reputation is the first application where people can find a job and create a professional reputation. The application is working and it is available on the main Aworker website. Aworker Identity and Aworker Pay will be developed soon.
3. Identification system.

We use data storage in public blockchains, depending on the applications’ requirements, in order to keep information in accordance with the laws of different countries. With the use of several blockchains we can store data locally in certain countries and guarantee information protection.

After much considerations we decided not to keep verified users’ data only within our platform. We want to create a united standard in verified information about people to make it easier for everyone to prove their identity, education, work experience, make payments and participate in professional rating where anyone can show what he/she really worth.

Our mission is to build a better ecosystem for reputation giving people an opportunity to verify their identity and professional competence easily without the involvement of third-parties, where every person will be able to control his/her data and receive rewards for what they know and can do.

The Aworker Protocol

We create a decentralized and reliable solution for applications and people based on public blockchains and distributed ledgers. Our solution consists of multi-chain data protocol for third-party applications, a people identification system, data exchange, P2P job marketplace, a verification system, payments and reputation. All together, these features form a multifunctional infrastructure for the creation of a unified Reputation system. Aworker Protocol is built on an open, distributed, and shared data layer to promote transparency and collaboration. Open, shared data also has the positive externality of encouraging competition and ever-improving updates to the community.

Our vision is to develop an open and free solution for sharing verified data to create a reputation ecosystem in a decentralized world. To do this, we need to create a platform that will help people in key areas of activity, specifically, job search.

We use data storage in public blockchains, depending on the applications’ requirements, in order to keep information in accordance with the laws of different countries. With the use of several blockchains we can store data locally in certain countries and guarantee information protection.

Why protocol?

We want to make the most of use from users’ ability to control their data which is not the case now. They will be able to sell it to companies interested in them as potential employees. Verified data can also be helpful in any sorts of background checks like banks do.

Why multi-chain?

We acknowledge the advantages and limitations of Ethereum blockchain as well as we know about a lot other promising blockchains that can benefit from having consent from people to use their data.

Roadmap

We plan to release the Aworker Data Protocol, data exchange logics, smart contract of exchange and API to connect applications in 4Q 2018.

According to our Roadmap, in 1Q 2019 we’ll work on development of a smart contract for contractual relations between an employer and an employee. Development of a payments mechanism and automatic exchange of tokens for fiat currencies. Development of API for connecting companies.

At the same time we plan to work on development of the Aworker Pay application for payments between employers and employees based on the Aworker protocol.
