ICO Analysis: DreamPublished on April 17, 2018

noahsayresVerdictI am extremely impressed with Dream. Not only does their platform seem incredibly well thought out, but they have already built the foundation of it with Moneo and had immense success doing so.
Although contractor marketplaces such as Upwork and Fiverr are entrenched, their core value proposition centers on the idea that contractors are willing to pay 20% of their project payments to Upwork in exchange for access to a large client base and a trusted escrow system. Yet over time, contractors find long-term clients and no longer need the security of Upwork’s platform. When that happens, they cannot take their reputation with them, locking them onto the platform.
If Dream were just a marketplace that solved the reputation issue, they would already be an interesting investment. But they appear to be much more. They are a platform for the blockchain era, using the technology to maximize efficiency. By using a crypto escrow system that they themselves designe, they offer flexibility not available anywhere else. In short, Dream is a next-generation platform that matches projects with workers and continuously improves itself from studying the outcomes of these pairings.
Risks Upwork and Fiverr have huge brand recognition and it could prove challenging to earn the trust of contractors who rely on them for their livelihoods. -3.5
Allowing reputation portability is great unless the accuracy of ratings from other platforms is low. This would then throw off the accuracy of Dream’s recommendations. -3
Growth Potential Dream has a highly qualified team that has already built and refined the core product. +4
They solve essentially every issue that contractors have with existing centralized platforms. +3
There is an unusually low fixed token supply which means that it takes far less capital going in to raise the price. +4
Their platform will continuously refine itself thanks to AI and machine learning. +3
DispositionDream earns a
7.5/10.Although this rating is incredibly high, I believe in this case it is justified. Everything from the token economics to the quality of the team to the product they already have running smoothly begs the question why there is not more publicity around this project.
