We at Planet Blockchain are very excited to announce that our community token — PBC — will be listed on the Crypto Bulls Exchange on 11 December 2018. We launched the PBC token (an ERC-20 token) to promote a wider adoption and sharing knowledge of the blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. As we explained earlier, we have consciously eschewed the ICO route to ensure a more equitable distribution of tokens to our loyal community members. Participants at our community events will receive tokens for attending, completing tasks, contributing content and taking part in coin draws, while presenters will be able to purchase the token to present to the community. In the meantime, our team has been busy airdropping the PBC token and has also allocated a significant amount of tokens to the Crypto Bulls exchange to ensure liquidity.

The Crypto Bulls Exchange has been established as a result of an agreement between the Al Zarooni Group, Gulf Coin Gold and Crypto Bulls and has become one of the first fully registered exchanges in the GCC. This development is aligned with the Emirates Blockchain Strategy 2021 which aims to capitalise on the potential of the blockchain technology and put 50 per cent of all government transactions on blockchain by 2021. Suhail Al Zarooni, the Chairman of Al Zarooni Foundation, believes that the launch of the exchange is an important milestone in opening up foreign direct investment opportunities from all over the globe in the UAE. The CEO and Founder of the exchange, Shasha Gupta, suggests that Crypto Bulls will be the first exchange providing AED trading pairs, so that traders can convert their crypto assets into AED.

Planet Blockchain has recently interviewed George Jason, Business Head at Crypto Bulls, who shared his thoughts on how the exchange will contribute to the development of the vibrant blockchain ecosystem in the UAE.

We have been growing our member base in the GCC since April 2017, and our upcoming listing, we hope, will strengthen the community. We also have ambitious plans to expand globally.

We thank all our members for their faith and support — we wouldn’t have been able to do this without you!

Planet BlockChain educated SABCO (South African Business Council) on 7 November on blockchain technology, use cases and cryptocurrencies. We had lots of fun with a quiz and the winners walked away with PBC tokens.

https://planetblockchain.io/news/planet-blockchain-at-sabco/

We are not raising funds through an ICO - all we are doing is distributing the tokens throughout the community in various ways, hence we still need a supply. PBC token will offer many utilities, amongst which it offers the community to provide feedback to the new startup projects (not necessary ICOs or STOs) and help to shape it. This way community members are able to earn the token. Participating projects would need to acquire the token in order to showcase their projects.

Just wondering why is it that almost 50% of the total supply goes to the team/advisors/reserve? There should be a good explanation on that. Such allocation is not fair in my opinion. High chance that the team involved will just sell their share.

The Heady Days of ICOs

The notion of an ICO — Initial Coin Offering — is something that most in the blockchain space are familiar with. Richard Kastelein, the founder of Blockchain News, was one of the first to bring ICOs into the spotlight in his 2017 Harvard Business Review article describing them as a new fundraising mechanisms. This mechanism represents a financial innovation as a result of a convergence of blockchain technology, new wealth, clever entrepreneurs and crypto-investors backing blockchain projects which raise funds by creating their own cryptocurrencies (tokens / coins). Projects offer discounted rates on these digital assets in pre-ICO rounds before they go to cryptocurrency exchanges. The investors can then chose to cash out to a fiat currency or another cryptocurrency early on or hold until the currency’s price raises (hopefully).

As a way to raise funds, ICOs have similarities — as well as differences — with traditional venture capital and crowdfunding. In the early days ICOs’ advantages included relative ease and speed of raising money (for a project that was, in many cases, at a concept stage backed by a minimalistic white paper), no oversight by investors (e.g., through a board seat) and, most importantly, high liquidity (which distinguished ICOs from both VC and crowdfunding). Many investors enjoyed extraordinary returns: for example, an analysis of 232 ICOs by Mangrove Capital partners in 2017 concluded that if one invested blindly in every ICO, including the ones that failed, this still would have delivered a 13.2x return (cf. 10% S&P average returns). Some investors in the heady days of ICOs reaped 50,000% returns. A recent academic study of over 4,000 ICOs found that an average ICO investor earned 82%, reflecting high compensation for risk associated with investing in unproven pre-revenue projects.

As the regulatory environment changed by mid 2018 and investors became more sophisticated, with less appetite for pre-MVP (minimum viable product) projects, many of these advantages — alongside with spectacular returns — disappeared. The majority of ICO tokens (nearly 60%) became worthless four months after the ICO crowdsale. Many high-profile industry participants — including Ethereium’s co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Coinbase’s Brian Armstrong– are advocating for a shift from the crypto investment and speculation phase fuelled by expectations of extraordinary returns to the utility phase, when tokens are actually being used in real-world economic activity and in a way stipulated in the white paper. It is quite telling that when Fred Wilson of USV ran a poll on the use of the Brave browser (the BAT project), nearly 80% of those polled said they did not use it.


Enter Community Token Offering (CTO)

Utility and wide adoption is precisely what we at Planet Blockchain are trying to achieve with our community token, PBC. The token gives our community access to physical goods (though a marketplace), content and services (e.g., the community will be able to pay for events and conferences and earn tokens for contributing content). Some of these products already exist, others will be included at a later stage in collaboration with strategic partners. Community tokens are nothing new and are certainly not the invention of the blockchain space — currently there are some 3000–5000 local complementary currencies in circulation predating cryptocurrencies. Bancor is perhaps the best known example of a blockchain project launching a network of user-generated cryptocurrencies to achieve important socio-economic objectives in economically disenfranchised places.

We decided against a traditional ICO with this particular project, as the process in today’s environment has become complicated due to legal compliance and marketing costs and often undemocratic, preventing an equitable distribution of possible gains amongst a wide pool of early investors and users. The main difference between the mainstream ICO model and our CTO is that we seek to distribute the PBC token (ERC-20 token) as widely as possible to our global community members while also ensuring liquidity on exchanges. Available evidence on the vast majority of ICOs to date suggests that neither wide community distribution nor listing on exchanges appear to be the case, thus hindering the adoption and diffusion of the revolutionary technology. And without community, there is no liquidity. Naval Ravikant, AngelList founder, has recently emphasized the critical importance of crypto community building: “The top two skillsets for blockchain entrepreneurs, in order: Technology development. Community development. That’s it”.

Our token distribution — 100,000 tokens (worth US$ 20,000) will be given away to the first 10,000 participants — will be achieved in several ways, including AirDrop Campaigns on Telegram and coin draws during our events.

As the ICO model and financial markets continue to evolve despite the recent turbulence, we are likely to see other viable and more equitable models of fund raising and token distribution. Meanwhile, we encourage everyone to take advantage to participate in the emerging crypto economy. Why should communities care? Tokens are a classic network effect: as more people use them more frequently, the tokens and the networks they are built on become more valuable. We look forward to continuing this exciting journey with our global community.

Don't be so soft, he was correct in calling them out. Many still don't understand, that 90% of this section's ICOs are faked and scams.

It takes a wolf to catch a wolf, and how many individuals did he stop from investing? This thread seems dead after that comment. Some of you still don't realize the severity and the amount of useless and scams occurring.

Next time thank dudes like this, he's doing the community a big service.

Dude, chill! I think you're being overly harsh on them. There's enough space for more competent/unbiased news sources and crypto educators, whatever you may call it.
I think they're just not that great at stating their main goal, that's all.

Thank you resotendocappa! 

the concept is very complete and you say you are a reliable person in the area of blockchain knowledge, if you are right it means you have no problems in raising funds through Presale and Sale

so in essence you want the muppets on bitcointalk to fund all your travel expenses while you go "preach" about blockchain worldwide....

how about you fund your fucking shit yourself instead of conning noobs with your scammy ICO?...

 

Hi Fu.Sin

You are correct. Planet BlockChain is not just a news website. We have been very successful in building an offline community in the Middle East trhough offline events and online groups. We are the one stop shop for ICO roadshows and we also give a stage to service providers to reach the community. Our platform connects individuals, entrepreneurs, enterprises and investors so that we can learn, collaborate and innovate. We will scale globally and have events across the world.

Whether correctly I understand, what your project is a news site in the world кpиптoвaлют? There are already a lot of sites of this kind. Than your site is fundamentally different from these sites?

Who we are
We are an international team of professionals and technology enthusiasts who are passionate about sharing and growing the knowledge about blockchain technology.

Our platform connects individuals, entrepreneurs, enterprises and investors so that we can learn, collaborate and innovate to realise blockchain’s full potential.

The Problem
The problem we are trying to solve with our project is to enable a wide adoption of blockchain technology through: Providing access to, and advice on, courses, workshops, masterclasses and other learning opportunities which are novel, relevant and informative to enhance the members’ skillset, which in turn will give them the edge in the current labour market, Improving the odds of success for blockchain start-up founders, the key drivers of the blockchain revolution, Global community building to share knowledge and increase awareness ofthe opportunities that the blockchain technology presents to entrepreneurs, corporates and members of the general public. Rewarding those who participate in the ecosystem by giving them opportunities to earn tokens, fueling adoption and driving the new token economy

Planet Blockchain Solution
Our proposed solution is to scale Planet Blockchain, a digital platform connecting communities globally through knowledge sharing and education. To drive innovation locally through virtual and physical meeting spaces for innovators and entrepreneurs, industry events, conferences, seminars and relevant research. We aspire to become a leading collaborative platform in the blockchain space with global scale offering our members opportunities to: Develop new skills, Earn rewards for contributions, Expand their social, business and professional networks and Grow their businesses. Our community will be able to access our platform for free through the website and the App. Free membership, which is particularly important for growth in emerging and developing economies, will ensure frictionless access and will help to overcome the proverbial chicken-and-egg problem as the platform scales. Members joining our platform will be offered a limited number of free services (e.g., newsletters). Other content such as courses, conference tickets and vendor services can be purchased on as needed basis using the PBC Token. In future, onboarding of new members will be done through the mobile App.

PBC Token Utility
The PBC Token is an ERC20 Community Token and a transactional currency. Fiat money and other established cryptocurrencies are unable to provide the desired features for global scale: Fiat money and central currencies have failed to create vibrant economies; the rate of return on capital exceeds the growth rate of the economy; money makes money faster than people or companies can create value . Fiat money has non-trivial transaction fees when used to transact across borders. BTC is not a transactional currency and hence promotes holding rather than spending. Credit cards and ACH (automated clearing house) systems are expensive transactional networks. Credit cards charge 3-4% transaction fees, which is more than the rate of growth in most economies. Currency monocultures lead to crashes; economies need multiple complementary currencies (e.g., local community currencies) for diversity and economic stability. The PBC Token will be one of these currencies.

THE PBC TOKEN WILL HAVE THE FOLLOWING UTILITIES:
Payments - event attendance, downloads and services,
Marketplace - used to buy merchandise from our website,
Rewards - earning through contribution, providing advice to new projects,
Access - to ICO related services, ads placement, job listings, sponsorship,
Exchange - tokens can be converted to other cryptocurrencies, or fiat
