ICO Service Will Be Running an ICO Roadshow in Asia For Some Very Promising Blockchain-Based Companies
This month is going to be an exciting month for these innovative blockchain-based companies-Leonovus, Triphop, MorLabs, dApp Builder, Xfinite and ICOVO. We at ICO SERVICE will be running their roadshows in ASIA in 6 locations and planning to raise just a little bit short of 1 Bln for our clients.
Well for starters, the Initial Coin Offering (ICO) market has grown very rapidly and has been a new avenue for blockchain based start-ups and projects to get the funding needed to launch their projects. As a matter of fact, data from coindesk indicate that ICOs raised more money in the first 3 months of 2018 than the whole of 2017. To put that into perspective, ICOs launched in 2018 have already blown past this figure, accumulating $6.3 billion in funding during the first quarter alone, that is, 118 percent of the total for 2017.
Over the past year, many initial coin offerings have generated so much buzz, but the degree of success have varied dramatically. Despite significant interest as investors test the waters in this new concept of funding, the landscape remains full of pitfalls. But don’t worry, because here at ICOSERVICE, we offer start-ups the needed help when it comes to marketing your ICOs and launching your projects as long as they are valid.
Normally, start-ups tend to conduct roadshows in a bid to market their ICOs. A roadshow is a good ICO marketing strategy. It’s an intense and effective way to rapidly gain exposure and link with local partners to gain credibility through network effect. So getting some solid advice from experts who have spent time in the marketing world is critical. ICO SERVICE comprises a team of experts with insights about conducting a proper ICO roadshow.
We will be running an ICO roadshow in Asia this month where we will visit 6 cities in 2 weeks. Start-ups that partner with us will have the opportunity to meet 150+ investors.In fact, as mentioned earlier, we will be running ICO roadshows here in Asia for some very promising blockchain-based companies, and these include:
1. LEONOVUS
Leonovus Inc., (“Leonovus”) (TSXV: LTV) has announced an update to its initial December 21, 2017 news release regarding plans for the launch of an Initial Coin Offering (“ICO”) for securities in the form of a contract called a Simple Agreement for a Future Token (“SAFT”). The SAFT will convert into tokens called GAAX, which is the underlying cryptocurrency for the Anything as a Service (“XaaS”) marketplace called “GALAXA”.
Leonovus is planning to raise up to 300M in its ICO. “Leonovus is applying to the regulators and the stock exchange to make the GAAX SAFT a publicly tradable security on the TSX Venture Exchange. If approved, unlike most cryptocurrencies, the GAAX SAFT will become a regulated security with the requirement for continuous public disclosure. This transparency exceeds the disclosure to investors compared to most other cryptocurrencies,”
said Michael Gaffney, Chairman and CEO.
The current cloud storage and compute marketplace is an oligopoly and GALAXA intends to challenge this market concentration. Gartner predicts 40%+ compounded growth rates for enterprise data storage and compute. GALAXA’s blockchain technology is designed to manage this growth either in the cloud or on premises and provide an open platform for developers to add new enterprise products/services.
The GALAXA protocol seeks to introduce a new blockchain architecture designed to accelerate the global development and implementation of XaaS offerings by independent developers that share a worldwide network of enterprise-grade distributed data storage and distributed compute assets. The company believes that GAAX is the first cryptography designed for the exchange of value between a corporate information technology buyer, an application service provider, and a storage/compute infrastructure supplier. The GALAXA ICO is a solution for the enterprise market – unlike most consumer-focused ICO’s.
2. TripHop
Triphop is becoming a leading travel platform and to connect its Members and Hotels. The platform seeks to create an open source token, Tripcoin. Tripcoin will incentivize Members to share their trip experience with friends and family on their social networks. In return, hotels will offer exclusive perks and Tripcoin rewards to Members to make the stay unique and more valuable. Utilizing the blockchain, the relationship between the Members and Hotels will be governed by the smart contract, where trust and transparency are maintained across the platform. 3. MorLabs
MorLabs is a next-generation blockchain-based mortgage technology platform for consumers, real estate agents, mortgage brokers, lenders, aggregators, and securitization institutions. The platform seeks to reduce the mortgage underwriting process from weeks to minutes, and as a result, undercutting the current ecosystem while saving originators, traders, and mortgage investors billions in opportunity costs and lost revenue.
MorLabs is planning to raise up to 30M in its ICO.
MorLabs Blockchain Labs technology will be automated, accurate, fully compliant, secure, user-friendly and robust. The platform’s focus is to assist all participants in the U.S. residential mortgage industry utilizing a blockchain-based platform that ensures:- Security, verification, and accountability of all mortgage-related documents and information.
- Faster + more robust + accurate underwriting engine which equals more mortgages and this means improved home ownership.
4. dApp Builder - Blockchain Application Builder for Ethereum dApps
dApp Builder is a platform where users can easily create Ethereum dApps from prebuilt smart contracts (no coding) and instantly deploy them to blockchain. The platform seeks to establish a community reviewed smart contract marketplace.
dApp Builder exists to make it so that anyone can start an Ethereum-based decentralized application. dApp Marketplace will enable anyone to create, customize, and deploy their decentralized applications. 5. ICOVO
ICOVO is the world’s first and only ICO platform that can actualize healthy ICOs. The core of its service is the DAICOVO smart contract, which is based on the concept of DAICO, which was advocated by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin in January 2018.
Each country’s government is advancing regulation in order to create a healthy environment for ICOs, but this is difficult to achieve for borderless ICOs using only centralized regulation.
ICOVO seeks to solve fraud and decrease in project motivation – the problems raised by ICOs – through the decentralized approach of DAICO. 6. Xfinite
Xfinite, an innovative social and entertainment ecosystem powered by blockchain technology, Xfinite rewards registered viewers for watching exclusive content, including movies, TV shows, sports and user-generated content.
