There is an anticipated increase in the number of freelancing in the nearest future. Already in place like US, it is said to be 1 in every 5. As online businesses continue to grow, i am hopeful that the relevance of Linkchain will be known much more.

Some great engagement and conversations flowing here and its fantastic to see....yes this is invariably a concept that is fundamentally a solution for a problem that currently exists and with costs a major barrier to growth for individuals and businesses, the functionality and deliverance will enable professionals and businesses to apply themselves a little differently and maximise the opportunities that would sometimes be hindered.....with the risk negated of receipt of payment too...how amazing is that!!

There are a lot of parameters and unknowns in this plan. The thing is that the competition is huge and every business has to go that extra mile to get investors and after that, users...So, the less unknowns, the better the business! Good luck, team!
Thanks for the encouraging words and whilst we have been as transparent as possible we still have a few things up our sleeves and major differentials!! We also absolutely do have plans that sit outside of the stated roadmap and initial business plan but firstly we are keeping the first generation laser focused and simple and will focus and expand further later on down the line. Stay Tuned and thanks for your support!! September 07, 2018, 04:18:05 AM
There seems to be some promising news to the whole freelancing career in addition to Linkchain:According to Warner, as many as 42 million Americans — roughly 30 percent of the workforce are self-employed/freelance workers and as such, a Self-Employed Mortgage Access Act is targeted at them. Things are gradually changing for the good of freelancing!

connecting buyers and suppliers to working together and doing business safely is a remarkable thing, because it's a highly sought after facility, especially by buyers who buy large quantities, need a reliable supplier
Yes, by bringing buyers and suppliers together in a way that allows them to transact business safely and with confidence, LINKCHAIN will set the gold standard for the gig economy

do you think the ETH SEC News will impact Icos?
Do you mean the ETF SEC news? If so, it's done it's damage already. Even though there's a worse that could happen. Right now we need to worry more about coins already existing and are plummeting than ICOs waiting to join the trend.
I would be interested to know Jack Bensimon's ideas about this (Jack is our CCO and one of the leading experts on Compliance issues in the ICO world) but I think I am safe in saying that ETFs took a long time to come about, and of course are designed to deal with an existing system (ie the stock market). ICOs and cryptos are so new it is not surprising that at this point the SEC is playing it safe. I refer anyone interested in this to a short CNBC video: "Bitcoin ETF applicants 'don't fit the mold' for the SEC, crypto exec says" blob:https://www.c[Suspicious link removed]m/4eab9c0d-d80b-4553-8d52-4fd2ebb1ace1

Yes, not only will you be able to transact safely, but you will also keep more of your fees as a supplier of services, as compared to other common freelancer sites.
...and that is a critical issue when we are talking to freelancers - it's the different between UpWork's 20% fee versus LINKCHAIN's 5%. That puts a whole lot of money back in your pocket!

when i started using freelancer.com it took me time to get to understand the site, with an innovation that allows users to efficiently use the platform without fully understanding it, is a great one.
Having said that linkchain is all about freelancing and charging very less for commission fee compare to other freelancing
platform, is linkchain playing the role of escrow in between the buyers and the sellers?
That is where the smart contract element comes into play. You see how useful this could be in the case of freelancing? But yes, I suppose you are right, the smart contact acts as a sort of 'escrow' between the two parties.

I also read a few articles about the project, the idea is very powerful, let's hope that the implementation will be just excellent.
The implementation will come a long way to seeing that the project is a success, and with the team they pose, I think they will see some good success. I also read that the CEO has over 10years of experience! Quite impressive!!Thanks to you both for your kind comments and yes I humbly submit that our CEO is a rockstar in the ICO/Crypto world! Conston Taylor has long been regarded as a leading advisor to ICO's. He didn't just jump into his own ICO, it was only when the idea hit him like a lightning bolt that he had this brilliant idea for LINKCHAIN and the LNK Token. This is a very carefully thought out plan, ladies and gents!
How did I miss that during my background check? That's quite a level of exposure, hoping they also get a good review on the same platform, not because of his presence but also because of the value the project will add to the crypto community and freelance industry. Is there any rating for the platform yet?

Having linkchain on a blockchain based platform is really going to bring purchasers and merchants under a sheltered atmosphere, and minimum service fee of as low as 5%.

There is no information about the team in this thread, I think it will be better to add it.
It's all in the pitch-deck and whitepaper, I just checked: The founder & CEO is called Conston Taylor; he has held key positions at Fortune 500 companies inc. United Technologies and Lear Automotive and has a combined 20 years experience in finance, operations and marketing. He's a graduate of the University of Michigan's Ross School of Business. Finally, he served as an advisor to seven ICOs and has invested in over ten.
Seems like he has quite a wealth of experience.
Yes, such a wealth of experience that could boost confidence in the project. Besides, having good hands in charge of the project is just one aspect of the factors that can determine the success of a project. I only hope it ticks in the end although from the key indicators, there is hope that Linkchain could scale through.

I just read some information about the Linchain team on the post by JONH-LINKCHAIN, part of which stated that The team is composed of top Chief Compliance Officers in the blockchain space, and went further to give details. However, personally, the make up of the team is quite impressive and worth the mention.

Alibaba offers something similar from my own point of view, or is there something I'm not understanding?
Alibaba as you know focuses on buyers and suppliers of goods, LinkChain focuses on connecting sellers of services e.g. graphic design, web design, copy writing and so on (similar to Upwork and others), with people 'buyers' - people that want to commission/ outsource or hire someone to do that. Their USP seems to be in leveraging the enormous userbase of LinkedIn (and other social media platforms), but making it easier to find suitable people and to find people that have been vetted as safe and good to do business with.
