Too many moving parts to put a rate on things at this point. To that point, the markets might be a factor. Ultimately it's going to come down to the transparency of the financials and the utility of the programs I build. The question is how much do *you* want an Nrg voucher to be worth? The programs I build will be innovative and fun. They will some of the earliest of a new type of program realized using the best technology that sits on top of the best technology.
The governance model will be released soon along with use cases that will make existing holders of the rewards as happy as the people buying more. It's my mission to realize this potential as soon as possible. It's the whole reason I was excited to work with both Loyyal as well as with the NRG token.
The growth potential is monumental. Anyone with businesses are welcomed to sign up under our program and add to the value of our rewards and the growth of the platform. I'm sure most people visiting this board knows someone who could utilize an easy to build loyalty platform. Or know app developers with a clever idea.
For example: take a web developer, mix in a hybrid mobile app platform, this API:
https://abbyy.technology/en:products:cloud-ocr:start and you've got an app to let people earn rewards based on their spending anywhere. Anonomize the data and now it's a dataset to sell to market research firms. Mix in a machine learning API and now the app can make recommendations. Tie in an ad network and offer relevant coupons within the app. Each revenue stream is largely automated and each adds value to the rewards that you all have a balance of.
Most people won't make an app, but every time I frequent a store that's got a crappy rewards program and tell them what is being built their faces light up.
I challenge everyone to take a look at:
Big data API's
Fintech API's
Cognitive API's
Ad networks
Chat bot platforms
Slack
Payment engines
IoT devices
And put a few pieces together in your head and discuss on the NRG slack channel.
Next, come up with creative ways to "spend" other programs rewards. Maybe an API is free that can offer some service for cheap or free. Take fivr for example. Partner programs want their points to be spent, preferable for less than will take place if they are spent at their place of business. If a program will buy "spent" points back from our RApps at 20 rewards for 5$ and our RApp redemption offers fivr redemptions for 30 of these partner points... That's a win of $2.50 per redemption. That's a significant amount of value to back our reward buyback rate.
Don't pick too much on the examples, they were me shooting from the hip to illustrate the potential we've got to work with.
Again I challenge you to start thinking in terms of things we can wire up. As someone said before I can't do this alone, I bring the tools that will allow us to do amazing things.
