UPDATE from the team!

A short while back, we shared a first look at our MVP for iOS and Android that provides small businesses with access to lending through Bright Network. We are now very excited to share a more in-depth introduction.

In this video, Pierre, Arnold and Jaime walk-through how to use the Bright application and give more insight into why we have used a simple and intuitive UI on top of blockchain technology to store user data and ensure privacy and portability so that small businesses an easily build a profile and access the financial services they require.

Hello everyone,

Ahead of the Bright Token Sale, Head of Blockchain Jaime van Oers shares more information on our token economics model.

Introduction to Bright and the ICO Landscape

Bright is building financial services on the blockchain to solve the problem faced by many small businesses in accessing credit. We have spent the last 18 months building Bright Network, the technology that underpins our ability to perform small business lending and credit analysis on the blockchain. Bright is built on a decentralised, open protocol, and as a result we are using token economics (henceforth called tokenomics) to create a robust, healthy marketplace and system of incentives to promote the adoption and growth of the network. By analysing the incentives of the network’s participants and investors, we have created Bright Network and its tokens in a way that provides a clear value proposition to token holders and creates the foundation on which we believe a sustainable business can be built.

Greetings toyo87  ,

More details on the token metrics will be released soon, including the sale dates and distribution.  
As part of this community, you'll be first to know!

What is the timeframe of your ICO campaign?

Greetings Community  ,

Behind Bright — Alicia Botha, MSME Engagement

When Alicia realised she wasn’t going to set the world alight with her talents as a squash player it was time to rally. A natural curiosity and a positive attitude to change led Alicia from South Africa to England to pursue a career in education. However, Alicia’s keen interest in problem-solving and the development of practical innovations eventually drew her to Bright as Head of MSME Engagement.

I have registered to participate in the sale later and have joined their telegram group. I hope you can immediately announce it, so we can prepare for purchases and not be missed.

Hi Bright Community 👋

We want to share another great post with you. This time we feature a question from community member @Ohgreatanotherone: From the roadmap and available literature, seems like this will be on ethereum, so my question is how will be platform be dealing with questions of scalability on ETH network or will you be looking into developing your own BC?

Head of Blockchain Jaime van Oers answers:

https://medium.com/@brightnetwork/featured-question-what-platform-is-bright-using-e0906b570dc3

Hi Untomabur  ,

Thank you for the kind words and do know The AmaZix Team is on the job!

Very good question Ohgreatanotherone! Bright is developing Bright Network to be smart contract platform agnostic, however their choice of platform at this time is Ethereum.

Ethereum has been chosen as an initial solution due to its maturity across multiple dimensions; technology, governance, user experience and developer productivity. It is the smart contract platform with the most active community, the most users and user experience focused projects, the largest knowledge base, and has proven its resilience and thought leadership in times of duress.

Finally regarding scalability, although Ethereum has been challenged in terms of reaching the transaction throughput required for mainstream adoption, Bright will strategically employ scaling approaches where necessary, such as side-chains. They will also benefit from platform-wide scaling projects like sharding as they develop.

The team is monitoring the smart contract platform landscape as other competitor platforms mature, and will evaluate whether such projects reach the maturity and value alignment required by Bright in the future.

From the roadmap and available literature, seems like this will be on ethereum, so my question is how will be platform be dealing with questions of scalability on ETH network or will you be looking into developing your own BC?

Indeed Amazix is a partner and has great experience in the blockchain world, will definitely be of great help bringing their expertise and team to lend a helping hand. Thanks a lot for the kind words, much appreciated .
In regards to TGE dates, more details on the token metrics will be released soon, including the sale dates and distribution.  As part of this community, you'll be first to know! However you can go ahead and register for the official Bright Presale here: https://brightnetwork.io/sale/register-interest 

I don't see when TGE will start, but I see AMAZIX as a partner of Bright, maybe it will help Bright to succeed later, I'm sure that because Amazix is a company in the field of good marketing projects, good luck Bright

In the roadmap, it was announced that public crowdsale will begin in Q4 2018, is there any information about this and what date?

I am very interested in projects that carry blockchain technology, and this time it also deals with banking, so I think there will be many interested people who choose this project as its own attraction.

Head of Blockchain at brightnetwork.io Jaime van Oers wrote an interesting Op-Ed article for Bright Network!

Digital Identity: The Dangers of Centralization

"The only way to prevent bad actions are to make them impossible or provide incentives structures to make bad actions economically infeasible, which is why the utilisation of cryptography and crypto-economics is at the forefront of my technical vision and decision making process."
