Project UPDATE: Anyone got an AD TECH question??
At MAD, we focus our time, energy, and brain power on building a new protocol for the advertising industry... and A TON of progress has been made.
As everyone with an interest in cryptocurrency knows, there are a lot of projects who make extremely bold claims and unrealistic goals simply to boost the price of their token. We don’t do that here. We understand there is frustration in the community regarding MAD Token, but we believe in the long term success of our project. This team has what it takes to revolutionize the advertising industry - but as we’ve said many times, it will not happen overnight. It will take not only hours and hours of coding, but also partnerships with the right industry players to make it work!
We have critical partnerships under our belt already, with more to come. New papers and documentation are coming soon. And we have dozens of conferences booked to spread the word and educate the market about MAD. So for those of you in it to win it, buckle up, the ride has just begun.
As our friend Jarrod Dicker, CEO of The Po.et Project, said yesterday, “ It’s the quietest projects that competitors should be most concerned about. Especially now. Less talking means more listening and more building. The quiet, focused projects of today will be the loudest in terms of usability, utility and user base tomorrow.” We couldn’t agree more.
We love discussing advertising, blockchain, or what tech we plan to implement, because we’re ad tech nerds. We rarely get questions like this from our community and urge you guys to ask about these important things as opposed to the same old questions about topics we can’t legally answer.
Want to help shape the future of ad tech? Bring the ideas! We’d love support from the community about the meat of our project!

MAD Network created the first blockchain protocol for digital advertising with privacy-by-design. Instead of customers’ data be held in a centralized data store, MAD allows their data to be stored completely on their own devices. By leveraging their data locally, MAD can pull in the best ads for each individual at the right time, in the right context, delivering the best possible advertising experience. Over the next year the MAD token will be integrated into the Madhive suite of products - aka advertisers will be able to pay for ad buys using Madhive in MAD token!
The Advertisers can stake MAD token to create an insertion order (IO), which is a smart contract that specifies how ads should be executed.
Madhive has tons of brand equity in the advertising and media world, our key markets. So it’s important we transition that equity slowly and intentionally. We are starting to transition MadHive’s brand equity over to MAD Network in a big way at Cannes Lions this year. We’re also in the process of tweaking both brands to visually reflect each other more.

Hi all - we know you’re eager for updates, and thank you for your patience.
Privacy in advertising is new. Re-engineering advertising with privacy-by-design is not something that will happen overnight - but will be the result of thousands of man-hours of coding, research, experimentation, testing and iteration by the team.
We’ve got new technical publications coming out in the next couple weeks which will give you insight into our technical approach and thinking. But that doesn’t mean there’s no code ready. We’re also planning to open source some of the cryptographic libraries we’ve developed that are critical for privacy. We believe these are a much needed addition to the blockchain community at large. Since privacy is a huge problem to tackle, and we want to encourage as much development with our code as possible, we’re busy vetting it before publication!
Please don’t underestimate how critical the partnerships formed and reinforced at events like Cannes Lions are for success - both in business and for product development! To build great product you need to collaborate with your market - and that’s exactly what we’re doing!
Based on the relationships we’ve forged at events around the world, we have a new partnership in the works with major publishers and the largest blockchain consortium for advertising to begin selling inventory to brands through the MAD Network. Like all good things, it’s not going to all come together overnight - but we hope to have more news towards the end of the summer. Very, very exciting stuff!
We’ll let the community know in this channel as soon as we publish our new papers and code. Stay tuned - and thank you again for your patience.

A user’s set of devices pulls in relevant ads based on their on-device AI powered profiling, pulling in only relevant ads and ignoring the rest. This profiling is secure, never shared, and cryptographically sealed.

Hello MAD Community - here’s our update for this week (June 27):
Cannes Lions 2018: Huge Success!
As you know, the team was at the Cannes Lions Festival last week - and it was a huge success. Following our panel with WPP & Omnicom, the team met with key media executives from top companies including Disney, CBS, Fox, Denstu, Havas, and American Express (among many others) to discuss the MAD protocol and how they can get involved. Developing meaningful relationships with the biggest companies in the world like CBS and Fox, and advertising holding companies like Omnicom, WPP, Publicis, Dentsu & Havas is vital to our success! And we’re proud to say we walked away from Cannes with tons of support and many budding partnerships.
The team is going to carry the momentum from Cannes throughout the summer, taking MAD on a roadshow to continue conversations with companies all over the world. Traditional media companies know that big change is coming -- and the big players are excited to participate in shaping the future together with MAD.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
1.) MAD is officially on the AdLedger Board!
We helped co-found AdLedger many months ago, and we can’t wait to continue working with the new board members, including companies like IBM, Omnicom, IPG, TEGNA, Meredith Corp., Salon Media, & Coindesk to create standards for the entire ecosystem.

At 5pm CET MAD will host Akon on the PrincessAVKYacht at Cannes_Lions on June 18th, for a blockchain AMA moderated by DigitalVisionry of GABBCON. Joining Akon will be MAD CTO Tom Bollich, MAD EVP Rebecca Lerner and MAD CEO Adam Helfgott. Join us! https://buff.ly/2JHOGV4

Hey guys,
Great write up from Digiday featuring quotes from Adam.
The quotes we really like:
“Blockchain has a problem: It’s long on potential, short on immediate utility. The story is no different in media, where blockchain’s boosters preach it will solve everything from consumer privacy issues to viewability problems to cleaning up the media supply chain to even vetting influencer contracts.”
“A lot of the solutions we’re seeing in ad tech is like taking a mechanical clock and slapping a radio on top of it, and calling it a digital clock,” says Adam Helfgott, CEO of the Mad Network, which is attempting to use blockchain to fix ad tech and cut out middlemen.”

What's your difference to compete with another one?
What's your difference to compete with another one?
At this time, we’re not worried about competitors. Most blockchain ad tech projects are simply another tax to pile onto the industry. They aren’t truly solving the underlying problems that advertising has. MAD is by creating a new protocol, built with privacy by design. You can read more about us here: https://bit.ly/2kkXWn2
