The idea is interesting.
Will participants know that they are in the project?

Strange question of course they know otherwise it would be just illegal. And in many countries for the dissemination of personal data you will be prosecuted by law. Therefore, everything happens with the consent of the users.

The ability to pay for tokens in different currencies immediately increases the chances for many willing to invest in your project. On which stock exchange are you planning to sell tokens? Is there a list already?

Yes, here I agree with you, it is convenient to pay for many by bank transfers and therefore it is very convenient for many investors. But in any case, whoever believes in the project will find ways to buy tokens.

This is an interesting question but I would like to know when tokens appear on the stock exchange and whether there will be a restriction on the sale of tokens at the initial stages of sales. Since many companies make restrictions to keep the token rate.

How are you going to sift out not real marriages that will be created just to get a reward of $ 1000. It will be very hard to check, I do not understand how it will work

I am also happy to participate in this project. What audience of participants do you rely on in the future? Who do you think will be the main and frequent participants of the platform? What is the statistics of this on the first 70 000 participants?

I read that the results were quite successful. I think in the future the audience will grow very quickly and therefore demand for tokens, too, which will positively affect their price on the exchange.

Such a large number of participants before the start of the main platform - it is already a great success. I do not think that the age of users or other characteristics for participants is important. This is the essence of such a platform. In social networks for example, it all depends on how many people know the quality of the application or its merits. Here the same principle is applied and the audience of users will increase at the expense of attraction of their acquaintances. And it can be a different age type.

I read in white paper that 5% of tokens will be allocated for free distribution in order to motivate the community. Tell me this is due to bounty program or airdrop? When will it be.

Yes the 5% token allocation is to partners that help with distributing the tokens including the bounty program and the airdrop. You can see details of the bounty program on the tokensale website: tokensale.ponderapp.co

This is excellent, I think it motivates the community and will help create activity on the site right after the start of sales. I myself am happy to participate in such a program of generosity. Good luck in project development!

Not sure I follow what you mean. Only people that download the app and register will be shown within the app. If you want to matchmake a facebook friend of yours that is not on the app, you can do so and they will be sent a facebook message to go download the app before they can like another single person.

I hope I've answered your question, but let me know otherwise.

I don't think that this type of service require blockchain. Blockchain is not mechanism for secure storage, more important is reliable and clever InfoSec system.
And how you planning to fight abusers? What will happen if somebody register many accounts and make one of them matchmaker which choose other account to date each other and earn from every date?

The service needs the blockchain because the group matchmaking feature is decentralized matchmaking. Users are effectively creating their own matchmaking business where they set the rules for entry, the prices, and the method of sharing the spoils from successful matches. The blockchain provides a system for tracking and securing the token-based value exchange between the different members of the group.

Secondly, we also are looking for people to create their own applications on top of the Ponder platform. These decentralized apps provide additional value to the community and our blockchain-based platform provides a means for them to participate in the token economy.

The funds are owed from the person who gets married. Everything is p2p

Okay, so system don't pay anyone by itself? How are you going to challenge existing dating services like Tinder? As I remember most of them are barely-free, and don't need user to pay for date.

There is a simple profitable business model already there, where each match leads to a commission to the platform.

The existing dating services have very low success rates. For men match rates are about 0.5%, which means that you need to swipe right 200 times before you get one match. This incentivizes men to swipe right all the time. Women get a lot of matches, but many of the guys are not interested in them because they've been swiping mindlessly. Therefore only 1 out of 20 matches on Tinder actually leads to a conversation. And then ~10% of those conversations lead to a date. So the probability of seeing someone on Tinder and actually going on a date with them is 0.0025%.

We've already seeing that Ponder's match rate is significantly higher than the industry average. For friend matchmaking, we are finding it to be 6x the industry average. So we'll be able to disrupt this industry by better success rates, less time wasted and better behavior (less douchey/flaky).

Hello. Please tell us, if the Union's success, payment for the services of the matchmaker will be paid in dollars or your tokens? After all, to use the usual currency will need to register a purse. Will you take a commission from every successful union?

There are two parts to the platform. The part that currently exists is 'general matchmaking' where you can matchmake anyone in the whole community. In this, fiat currency is used as the means for value exchange. If a matchmaker successfully matches two singles (who both say 'like' on each other), then the matchmaker earns $10, and each of the two singles pays $10. Therefore we, the platform, earn $10 for each union. With the release of the Ponder Gold token, this will confer VIP benefits on all token holders in this general matchmaking. Singles will be shown to the best matchmakers, and matchmakers will see the most active singles, increasing their match rate and earning more fiat money.

The second part to the platform, which will be developed by July, is 'group matchmaking'. Here users can create their own sub-community eg. yogis in santa clara, mormons in Miami, etc. The owner of the group sets the rules, including entrance criteria and entrance price. The value exchange within these sub-communities are entirely based on tokens - there is no fiat currency involved. Successful matchmakers earn tokens, and matched singles pay tokens. Ponder gets a commission on each match that occurs as well as each entrance payment.

Thanks for such an answer, I'm just going through the terms. The question in dollars now fallen itself. Dollars on the platform are called internal tokens PONDER (at the rate 1:1 to the US dollar). They are needed to maintain a positive balance of the gameforge purse.

Hello, team. Do I get it right that ponder is more of a game than a real dating application or something? And I also do not understand why does it need blockchain?

Apparently the administration already has mechanisms for solving fraud issues and other mechanisms to get tokens. 1000 dollars for the couple getting married. How to avoid fraud in this case, I do not really understand.

It's just unreal even theoretically. Even if the will try to check documents, how they can to know it's real wedding or only for money. Maybe you can say about time spended together but real man can say goodbyе, my wife, goodbyе after 5 years as good as scammer.

First rule of apps - if people are trying to game you, then you are probably already successful. People are actually caring about your platform enough such that they are trying to game you.

However, if this happens there are various means we have thought through about how to tackle this. With marriages we will insist that we have a photographer at the wedding. This will provide proof that the wedding was real, and we will also have great wedding photos as testimonials. The payment for marriages can be seen as a very high ROI marketing spend. There are going to be a few hundred weddings each year, when we're at scale. Making that kind of payment for getting the best possible testimonial on the success of your service is worth it.

Hi, interesting idea. I think that success can be in case of good advertising. Many people see themselves in the role of matchmaker. Your difference from the agencies, I understand, is that I can wooing only my acquaintances?

Ponder is a platform for playing matchmaker for others where you earn money by making successful matches. You can play matchmaker for friends, but you can also do so for strangers. Therefore, both single and married people can use Ponder. For singles Ponder is a way to get a curated stream of quality prospects that have been suggested by friends or a community of motivated matchmakers.
