Excellent progress so far. Look forward to a little more funding, but aside from that Everything is going well. Mining is great.

The promise of this project looks great. But I'm wondering how the BlockCDN protocol proves to the demand side that the supplying node actually served real content to real end users? If the data about how much bandwidth was used comes from the CDN nodes themselves, then the supplying node could report false data about how much bandwidth they provided.
In a centralized solution, like Akamai, if their bill didn't match up with your expectations based on analytics, and you thought they were defrauding you, then you'd just switch providers or withhold payment or do an investigation. But in a decentralized solution like BlockCDN, you basically pay in advance, and your tokens will be transferred to a node who reports that they used X amount of bandwidth on your content. Is there some sort of "proof of bandwidth" baked into the protocol? Thanks!

The answer lies in the trading platform that sits at the core of BlockCDN. It uses smart contract technology to match orders automatically - Orders are inputted to the platform by the demander who pays per gb of data - the trading platform them matches that request to a sharer who can take the acceleration task on. The blockchain is used to record the workload undertaken by the sharer in order to pay them accordingly so that part of the system is how BlockCDN quantifies workloads - 'proof of bandwidth'. It is open and transparent of course - being blockchain - and so If there were any strange activity it would be possible to see -

What is minimum goal? And what way to return are provided in case of failure?
Please don't be a lazy person and try for read at the first page of the announcement thread. 150k ETH for the minimum threshold. was providing at the first page.
This is a remote failure. The goal outlined in ur copycat message detaches the mind from my body.

It looks good, if the project continue this may have success. They are innovative, and developed by Chinese team.

ICO of BlockCDN now 14502ETH and 242BTC
Does 242 BTC count into 150000 ETH? I mean if ETH is only 10k, but BTC is worth more than 140k ETH, will be the ICO successful?

2 weeks to go & 150000 ETH / around 1.2 million USD is still some distance to reach minimum goal - but investorslooking forward to it getting achieved. good luck!

Over $300,000 raised from 270 separate investors

ico still running 15 days remaining, ico fund collected up today is 14,149.7 ETH + 129,1 BTC = 26,500 ETH
it's good and optimis ICO will reach 150,000 EHT

wow progress very fast, 129 BTC to 242 BTC in a few hours If it goes, goal will be achieved before end of ICO

You should rethink your crowdsale incentives and marketing.
Having concurrent mining rewards during a crowdsale gives small investors less incentive to give and more to mine.
Ethereum price was on a bear trend lately which shook some investors confidence.
Most importantly a total lack of promotion or hype in the months precedeeding your crowdsale and lack of on going community engagement during it. I'm still waiting on that reddit AMA.
I actually don't understand fully the incentive to hold blockCDN after 3 years from start of active service provision since you stop paying dividends to holders after then. It usually takes 3-5 years for a service to build a sizable
What do I gain from holding blockCDN for > 3 years? Do you expect the tokens to appreciate in value? Will there always be a fixed total of tokens or will you increase token cap in future to reduce prices for customers and ensure your profitability and the expense of your early investors?
Perhaps extend the deadline or actually promote actively in threads with ethereum users, investors and audiences e.g. the ethereum or ethtrader reddit sub where plenty of potentially interested people hang.
Your promotion on these threads has been lacking.
If the crowdsale fails aside from refunding the ETH will you:
Do a debrief?
Seek a consultantion on why it failed?
Continue the project?
Seek investment elsewhere?
Relaunch the crowdsale?
Tweak the incentive structure and marketing if crowdsale is relaunched?

Good questions! Would be great if the dev answers them. I think the promotion is alright but mining reward should be given less for now till ICO ends.

I don't get the point of paying dividends only for for 3 years, it takes a project 4 to 5 years to have a solid base and market. The real income comes after 5 years or so. If the project doesn't pay dividends after that, then it feels like the team is just using the investors!

There is a question I want to ask, since the mining of these tokens has started already, why do I need to invest into the ICO if I can mining the token myself?
If BCDN fails as a project starting first with this ICO then you are mining for nothing. Investors are needed in order to fully develop its goal. Although it seems that this project is heading into the right direction and a big tendency of becoming big.
