Check out Julian some more, he is part of the biggest telco in Belgium, operating an extensive IoT network and they are actively brokering data already and looking for this solution to push it to a new level.
Thanks for pointing that out, I can see how Proximus might find it interesting - https://eurocomms.com/industry-news/11968-proximus-starts-selling-customer-data-reports-for-700-a-time
Yet, I am puzzled how it translates to the platform. Let's take this Proximus case for example. Your white paper states that sensor owners will be directly remunerated when their data is bought. Does this mean that actual phone owners will profit directly from Databroker DAO? The whitepaper mentions that the average sensor has a value of ~12 USD per year. You based your ICO token value on that number. With 14 sensors in the average smartphone, that would mean that a single phone would be good for about $168 worth of sensor data per year. Granted, not all sensors would be useful or equally interesting to be traded, but still, it's a large amount.
And besides phone owners, will car owners, smart TV viewers, home automation owners profit directly? And will all of them need a wallet and a Managed Identity Contract, as your whitepaper mentions? I'm genuinely curious. If the general public is going to benefit directly from Databroker DAO, that would make the scope and scale of it all massively different than when the benefits reach no further than data harvesters like Proximus, Volkswagen, Samsung and Google. Could you elaborate on this please?
