 I found another one fresh review of this project, if you look at the thing from different angles you can fully understand it:

What do you want? They don't have a working product on the blockchain yet, they still in pre-ICO phase.
Of course the firstly will develop the product and then will start to expand, it will take amount of time.

Wish they assigned someone to answer our queries. Only devs can tell you about their plans and strategies.

Only US, China, South Korea and Singapore citizens are not allowed to participate in ICO. You can find this answer in Q&A section of the website: https://air-pod.io/qa/.

I don't think so, I think that the popularity of the project will come next year.

It's not just good, it's the perfect time now for this kind of platform. =)
 

It's the good time for this kind of projects, it will take some time to expand, so start now is the right thing to do. AirPod can become a big platform in the future.
 

Hi, I'm interested in this project but where are you going to operate?
Are you sure you can operate despite the various national laws governing advertisement?
Sorry if this question has already been answered.

Where can I find document list for KYC and supported countries?
 

We will enable additional Token Models, but not calling it payout from dividends. ICO contributors will be able to convert APOD tokens to a Sponsorship Program for each installed AirPod unit for an indefinite time period thus establishing a profit-sharing relationship (Reward), giving them the responsibility to manage unit(s) and right to collect fees in APOD Tokens.

If you are referring to the speculative value of token it is impossible to predict and not something we would consider discussing. What we do know is that out of advanced economic calculations, we are able to simulate potential value on a basis of the business model and token flow. But again, it is not something we would consider to discuss publicly yet.

Strictly technically looking the basic value of token will increase because it's linked directly to company's revenue stream. Please read the explanation: We split the received FIAT (payment for rent): using 50% for our company costs and the remaining 50% for buying Tokens on exchange at market price and placing sell orders (sell wall) of 0.023 APOD/ETH or/and 0.0002 APOD/BTC at today's equivalent value. While the number of distributed AirPods and users will grow the frequency of Tokens we buy from the Exchange grows, as a result, the value of APOD token will automatically increase over time. This simply means that more AirPods are installed and more users are generated, the frequency of Token buyback from the exchange and placing them back at a higher price, will increase with the price of APOD Token.

ICO wise: APOD token is linked directly to company's revenue stream which ensures long-term stability and a potential increase in value, therefore it eliminates speculations and volatility (instability). Our ICO is one of the fewest on the market Backed by Real Product & Economy.

Business wise:

Partnerships on the production side with globally recognized companies.
10.000+ possible AirPod Locations Worldwide
Global Airport Distribution Partner
Revenue stream Token Profit sharing Relation in 2nd, 3rd Stage
ICO contributors will have "Priority Pass" to participate in profit sharing in the 2nd phase

Thanks for your comment! Current business model is very profitable and main reason for possible token implementation. We have extracted financial data projection, please see below:

1€ is approximately $1.23 on todays date.

Sure.  ICO contributors will be able to convert APOD tokens to a Sponsorship Program through DApp platform for each installed AirPod unit for an indefinite time period thus establishing a profit-sharing relationship (Reward), giving them the responsibility to manage unit(s) and right to collect fees in APOD Tokens.This stage is planned at (1) 400 installed AirPods; or after or (2) 1 year of business (whichever happens first). Since APOD token is transforming to a security token, we plan to act accordingly, listing it on the exchange that will support our token type.



As mentioned before, the DApp will offer APOD token holders (ICO contributors) the option of token conversion to a Sponsorship Program of the already set-up AirPods. The platform will enable contributors to make a financial analysis of the individual AirPods free of charge and help them decide which AirPod they choose. The price of a Sponsorship Program (value of a single AirPod) is adjusted in accordance with its projected financial performance - the initial price algorithm is set by us.

In case multiple parties express interest in a specific AirPod, token holders will be able to bid for the chosen AirPod. When interest is high, the cost to participate in the Sponsorship Program will rise accordingly. Tokens are the only currency used for the Sponsorship Program as well as for the reward percentage payouts. The Sponsorship Program gives contributors a chance to participate in profit shares (rewards) for the specific AirPod.

Participants in the Sponsorship program can buy a percentage (depending on the number of purchased APOD tokens), of each Sponsorship Program which can also be sold to other interested parties. Also, additional Sponsorship Program(s) can be created for a specific percentage of other AirPod unit(s). Sponsorship Program participants get their monthly reward payouts to the account they've created on the platform.

Correct.

That is a good point. Marketing is our TOP priority activity after ICO end. 

Dealing with exchanges is already in process. At this point we can't disclose more.

Right after the ICO, we depend solely on post-ICO activity until we start placing Airpods across International Airports. Once distribution has started, our token, which is linked directly to company's revenue stream will ensure long-term stability and a potential increase in value.

Strictly technically looking, we split the received FIAT (payment for rent): using 50% for our company costs and the remaining 50% for buying Tokens on exchange at market price and placing sell orders (sell wall) of 0.023 APOD/ETH or/and 0.0002 APOD/BTC at today's equivalent value. While the number of distributed AirPods and users will grow the frequency of Tokens we buy from the Exchange grows, as a result, the value of APOD token will automatically increase over time. This simply means that more AirPods are installed and more users are generated, the frequency of Token buyback from the exchange and placing them back at a higher price, will increase with the price of APOD Token.

Before going into mass distribution our plan is to do a commercial test. Users will be able to test AirPods in the UK airports and giving us important feedback for further improvement. After this stage is completed successfully we plan to install 100 AirPods until Q1, 2019 in the first mass distribution phase.

I am not sure what are you referring to. Anyways, we are not planning to use any identity authentication software in the AirPod. As for the ICO, we are identifying contributors via KYC.
