Pre-ICO Crowdfunding Campaign
[Website]  ▬  [GoFundMe]  ▬  [Twitter]  ▬  [Medium]  ▬  [Telegram Group]


Overview

Disperse.Network is next-generation social media.  Decentralized, ethical, and censorship proof.

Based around multiple decentralized networks, Disperse.Network is being engineered to enable people to exchange ideas and information, without fear of censorship or control.  By building a tightly-integrated decentralized platform that combines microblogging (like Twitter and Gab), social networking (like Facebook and LinkedIn), and media sharing (like YouTube, Snapchat, and Instagram), Disperse.Network will enable new ways of engaging with people, businesses, and organizations.

Professional content creators (like YouTube personalities and independent filmmakers) will appreciate our content monetization approach, with multiple streams of revenue sharing as well as a larger percentage share than existing platforms.

Users of the platform will like our approach to data control and privacy, including full control over what information is shared and with whom.  They will also appreciate our approach to ethical advertising that does not track or profile them and also provides ways to opt-out of advertising by using their idle computing power or through subscription purchases (completely optional).

Our advertising and distributed computing partners will submit their creatives (advertising jobs) and work-units (distributed computing jobs) through decentralized nodes that can be self-hosted by anyone.  Job submitters that choose not to host a node can use our public nodes to securely submit jobs.

Everyone will appreciate that our platform is designed to break out of “data silos”, and eliminate “information gatekeepers”.  No entity, including Disperse.Network ourselves, will be able to censor content on the platform.  Human expression should be free to everyone, without fear of censorship, control, “shadowbans”, or any other controls over lawful words, pictures, and video.  Inappropriate or illegal content will be removed through community consensus.

The monetary aspects of our platform will operate completely using cryptocurrency.  Content creators will receive their revenue share in Bitcoin, Ethereum, or another major cryptocurrency of their choice.  Subscribers, advertisers, and distributed computing users will pay for their service using cryptocurrency, including with Disperse tokens.

Incubation Period and Launch Method

This fundraising campaign will raise the funds needed to build and launch Disperse.Network, first as a Minimum Viable Product and then as a beta test.  The service is expected to launch its beta test in the late third quarter of 2018.  Disperse.Network is expected to complete incubation and launch as an independent business in the late fourth quarter of 2018.

At this time, it is expected that Disperse.Network will launch as a corporation through an Initial Coin Offering in compliance of Regulation A+ of the Securities Act.  Because regulations in this emerging field are subject to change at any time, this will be reevaluated prior to launch.



Rewards for Contributors

When it launches, Disperse.Network will give us Disperse Tokens, which BTRIC will pass on to each donor to the project and to BTRIC Founding Donors as a reward for donating to this project and/or to BTRIC.  Donors that contribute to our Pre-ICO/Incubation fundraising campaign will receive 10 Disperse Tokens for each USD contributed.

In addition, BTRIC's Founding Donors that hold BFD Token when Disperse.Network launches will receive 20 Disperse Tokens for each USD contributed to BTRIC's launch campaign.  (If you are not a BTRIC Founding Donor, you can still participate in this fundraising campaign.)  Not yet a BFD Token holder?  You still have a little more time, our BFD Token fundraising campaign ends on March 31.  Visit BTRIC's launch campaign to learn more.

A Project of BTRIC's Innovations Incubator Program

Disperse.Network is a project of the Innovations Incubator initiative of Blockchain Technology Research Innovations Corporation (BTRIC).  BTRIC is a U.S. based 501(c)(3) non-profit economic development organization that is focused on the emerging technology field.  Our organization also includes Blockchain Technology Research Innovations UK, which is a United Kingdom based charitable company by guarantee.

BTRIC's Innovations Incubator program works with promising projects as a business incubator and startup accelerator.  When projects have completed our incubation program, they are launched as independent businesses, investment-grade and ready to take on the world.

Donations received will be retained by BTRIC or forwarded to BTRIC UK based on the location of the donor.  In either case, your donation supports this project (we just have to manage funds properly in order to operate as a dual-recognized charity under both U.S. and U.K. law).  Donations from the United States, Canada, Mexico, Israel, and all locations other than those listed below for BTRIC UK will be retained by BTRIC and may be tax-deductible to the extent permitted by the law in your country.  Donors located in the United Kingdom, Iceland, Norway, and member states of the European Union will be forwarded by BTRIC to BTRIC UK and may be eligible for tax relief to the extent permitted by the law in your country. In addition, donors located in the United Kingdom will be forwarded a Gift Aid declaration.  Please consult a tax advisor for information specific to your circumstances.

All funds collected through BTRIC's GoFundMe campaign for Disperse.Network or on Disperse.Network's project page on BTRIC's website will be used to implement this project.
