The project is a very promising and fast - growing one,as Etherisc's mission is to build decentralized insurance applications, making buying and selling insurance products more efficient, while ensuring lower operating costs and greater transparency in the insurance industry compared to traditional operations.I really like this idea!!!
I agree, the insurance industry is a good candidate,but despite this,there are some doubts about the readiness of the team, the risk for token holders is still quite high.But in any case, the project is developing, let's see what happens!

I agree with you though I see some of the team members to be really well prepared for what they've started already. Good luck to the team and the next App features Smiley

Insurance projects generally do not receive a high valuation. In addition, I think DIP tokens do not have a lot of utility other than staking by developing teams because consumers can pay in other currencies.

9 Reasons Why It’s a Good Idea to support Etherisc

Help us to Make Insurance Fair and Accessible! By supporting Etherisc, you support a game-changing project that can completely reshape the legacy model of today’s insurance industry.

1. Etherisc wants to make insurance fair and accessible!
Etherisc develops a protocol for decentralized insurance applications. We use blockchain technology to make the purchase and sale of insurance more efficient, enable lower operational costs, and provide greater transparency into the industry.

Why the world needs decentralized insurance:
  • Increase transparency and fairness of insurance
    Enable lower operational costs
    Make the purchase and sale of insurance more efficient
    Common infrastructure, product templates and insurance license-as-a-service make a platform that allows anyone to create their own insurance products.
    Independent workers and risk capital providers earn fair share of created value.

2. Etherisc is already 2 years in the making
The founders met in June 2016 and presented a first working insurance application in September 2016. Since then, they have won several awards and built a company with 23 team members around the world (Switzerland, Austria, Germany, United Kingdom, Belarus, USA), set up a proper Swiss Foundation, and sold the first, fully regulated smart contract based flight insurance in October 2017.

3. Well connected with the Core-[Suspicious link removed]munity
All 3 founders are well connected to the core community and did present at countless industry events in the last years.
  • May 18 ,2018 — Chainges
    May 18, 2018 — Consenus NY Etherium Meetup

4. Live Product + many community build products in the pipeline

Currently, more than 20 products are being built from idea stage to production. The most well-known are:
  • Flight Delay Insurance is in production on Ethereum — fully licensed, sold worldwide for ETH, USD, EUR. A developer earns 5% of revenue (set by the developer) and 100% of underwriting profit.
    HurricaneGuard.io is deployed on the Ethereum testnet.
    Crypto-backed lender insurance. Watch for the announcement from market leading crypto-backed lenders. DAO/smart contract insurance is in design/prototyping.


5. Etherisc won a number of Awards & Memberships

ICO Analysis: Etherisc
Publishedon June 7, 2018
By Fredrik Vold


Team
The Etherisc team appears to be fairly large with lots of experienced people from a variety of industries. The team is also more senior than many other blockchain projects, which in our view is better than having a team of only young people with no prior work experience.
There are three co-founders on the team, each one with his own area of responsibility:
    Christoph Mussenbroch, Protocol & Architecture
    Stephan Karpischek, Ecosystem & Community
    Renat Khasanshyn, Insurance Products & Revenue
All three co-founders have Etherisc listed as their employer on LinkedIn.
Other than the three founders, there is also a large team of people with expertise in many different areas, including engineers, blockchain developers, PR staffers, UI designers, and insurance industry experts.
Most team members have listed Etherisc on their LinkedIn profile, which indicates commitment to the company and not just a lose affiliation (which so often is the case with ICO projects).
The team is also spread out geographically with people from lots of different countries.

Verdict
With several working products, a large and experienced team, and an an industry ripe for disruption, Etherisc is in a better position to succeed than many other ICOs we have reviewed recently.
The team also appears to be in a good position when it comes to regulatory compliance with the authorities in their home base of Switzerland, which they claim to be in close contact with.
Despite this, we do have some concerns regarding the team’s preparedness for the ICO (or “Token Generating Event” – TGE – as Etherisc calls it).
Firstly, the many white papers that are published on the website make it difficult and confusing to find the information investor’s typically look for before investing. These documents should be merged and rewritten into a single easy-to-understand go-to resource for ICO investors.
Secondly, we are critical of the team’s decision to only make 30% of tokens available to the public through the ICO. Generally, anything less than 50% public ownership of tokens challenges our view of what a “decentralized” platform should be like.

Risks
    Several long and confusing white papers with key information about the token sale missing. -2
    Only 30% of the tokens will be available for sale, while a whopping 25% is reserved for the team and founders. This goes against the idea of decentralization. -4

Growth potential
    Etherisc already has several products that either have been built or are under development, which is a very positive sign. The blockchain-based “Flight Delay Insurance” and “Hurricane Guard” are the best known among these. +4
    The insurance industry is undoubtedly ripe for disruption, and the “tokenization of risk” is an interesting idea that could improve efficiency and lower the costs for all parties involved. +3
    The team is large and experienced, and there appears to be a strong level of commitment to the project from the team members. +3

Disposition
All in all, we agree that the insurance industry is a good candidate for disruption. We also like the idea of “tokenization of risk” and letting anyone participate and essentially buy risk in return for a profit. This way, there is a huge potential for savings and cutting down on unnecessary bureaucracy in the insurance sector.
However, we believe the team still has some work to do on the promotion and marketing side in order to make this ICO more understandable for the general public. All token sale details also need to be made available in one place, and the team should explain clearly their reasoning behind the token allocation model they have chosen.
Overall, we arrive at a score of 4 out of 10 for the Etherisc ICO.
