Want to share with all here an interesting part of the interview with the ZED CEO, Alan Safari, where he answers the question about how does he come to the idea of concept for the ZED network. This IMO shows the potential of the project at all!

And here is his answer:

"I launched a small digital Money Transfer Operator (MTO) in Canada called ZipZap which was very successful and was getting good user adoption. We were approached by a number of other MTOs in the US and Canada asking if they could license our apps to use for their own clients.
We looked at the value proposition and costs and couldn’t make the numbers work with a typical licensing partnership.  Plus, our mission was to reduce remittance costs not add to it!
It wasn’t until the popularity of tokens and ICOs in 2017 that we were able come up with a plan to license a comprehensive white label solution to the MTOs at no cost that the idea just took off.
"  


Good to know that the CEO itself has a lot of experience in running this kind of business, it will encourage people to invest in ZED because the team have experienced the problems and found a way to resolve it using modern technologies.

This would be the most promising project that would attract more investors in the future.. the team is really giving there best yo prove that this project will success.

We plan to host our own instance of Stellar Core in order to submit transactions without depending on a third party, have more control over whom to trust, validate the identity of the ZED token holder and simply to help make the Stellar network more reliable and robust for others.

That would be great  to hear. Since then Stellar network is a reliable one.

Also, I`ve found some more information about the company behind this project. Looks like they have already had some revenues by today and 18 employees on the board)
That`s definitely a good fact that brings more confidence to this ICO.  

I was a bit confused how they got the revenue for ZED even though the platform is not fully functioning or that revenue came from the small digital money transfer that is owned by their CEO?

Guys, is there anyone who already bought ZED tokens? Did you receive tokens immediately or do you need to wait for the completion of all sales phases?
Most of the ICO's released tokens after the sales but I'm also wondering about if ZED will issue the tokens earlier because they have a long way to go for completion of the token sale.

Where can I see fundraising progress? I have not found information on the site.
ZED does not provide data on fundraising. Perhaps such information will appear for public sale - on phase 3 and 4.

As far as I remember they are currently in private sale so there will be no public information will provided during this stages.

I am not sure I understand how ZED works. Is it a currency running on a blockchain or how does it work? It is not proof of stake?

As it is stated in the WP ZED is built on top of Stellar platform with connectivity to BTC  and ETH methods of payment.
It is running on the top of the Stellar blockchain with all of the specs of its technology but ZED team plan to host their own instance of Stellar Core in order to submit transactions without depending on a third party, have more control over whom to trust and validate the identity of the ZED token holder.

In other words Zed is anchored in the Stellar blockchain? That's a solid foundation for ZED.

Did I miss the Pilot Launch announcement? If I'm not mistaken, he was supposed to be this week.

Hi!
Do You mean the pilot that they was going to launch at the end of the previous month directly with pilot program MTOs? That was announced anywhere or only in the telegram by Andre Flores? 

I tried to look around on their social media and telegram channel and it looks like they didn't launch it yet so maybe in the next few days because they didn't says an exact date of the launch.

Found it! It is mentioned in the Final version of White Paper in the roadmap in the "Key Dates" chapter (page 16 of the WP).
So pilot launch was planned long ago as a key date and also this one is the last before the Public Product Launch (1/30/2019).
It`s strange that we had not any announcements about it yet.

Finally, we have some clarifications from the CEO - Alan Safari about the development of the SAaS platform. As Alan posted in the telegram grout some days ago "We are currently integration with 3 pilot clients and will be testing in Dec/Jan"!
Looking forward to more news on it in the nearest future. 
Seems like ZED network is following their Roadmap, it is good to hear that there 3 MTOs who are willing to test the platform before it goes live to the public.

What do you mean by "ZED team plan to host their own instance of Stellar Core"? does it mean that they might create their own blockchain on the future?
No they are not planning to create their own blockchain as of now because ZED want to stick in Stellar platform but planning to have their own server or mining system to process the transactions much faster.
Stellar is a good platform. I tried this wallet and exchange many times and With high volume.
I think the main concern of choosing Stellar blockchain is because of the cheaper transaction and much secure compare to other blockchains, I also see a lot of projects that is drifting away from Ethereum-meta so I think the team has a made a right choice for using Stellar.

This projects deserves our attention. It has good idea, good product and good opportunity.. I will support and promote this project.

Indeed! the team takes a lot of time to plan and develop their platform based on the problem of any MTO's that they are facing today especially the slow transaction with an expensive fees.
My friends and family also having trouble with these money remittances so I hope that once the ZED platform is available more and more MTOs will use it because it benefits them and their clients.
