Today we will review another ICO. It is an ICO of decentralized ticket marketplace with low commission and additional costs. The name of it TokenStub. Let`s move on directly to the team. Oh, before that let us review the key dates. So the ICO was announced on August 6th, the presale started on August 18th, today the ICO starts and then the revolution begins. Let's see who will do this revolution. This team got a very interesting combination cause the second person mentioned is a lawyer. They do not have any links to their linkedin profiles. When I searched for Sean McHale I got around 40 results and none of them looked like him. Too bad.
Let`s jump to the white paper and review the Crowdsale details. They are planning to create 200 million stubs which is their coin. They are planning to raise 15 million. So they have a hard cap which is nice to know how much money you are planning to spend.
And this is where the money will go: half of it will go towards development, 23% for marketing, 2% fro accounting, 15% for consulting and 10% for legal issues.
The road map. This year they are planning to launch their wallet. Then in the beginning of next year their platform. After this in the second quarter of 2018 iOS and Android wallet. Then iOS and Android ticket application. So looks like they have a year of development and then they are planning to do the marketing.
Good luck guys.
Lets review their facebook. They got 78 people following. Not much. And they started the facebook page in the beginning of August. Their twitter is a bit better. They got 804 followers.
The other thing I notice they got an unanswered question on bitcointalk forum from one of the bounty team members.
So far the project looks nice. Does not look like the project has an MVP.
Another thing I want to show you is how you can understand if the team did a good job on visualization of their project on the website. I call it Chinese test. You just switch to Chinese or whatever language you do not understand and see what can you understand about the project. This team passes the test only with their faces. The chinese test does not help me understand what the project is about. A bit more visualizations, illustrations might help. Something that will help to visualize how the tokens will be used or how the tickets will be sold.
Anyways we wish this team good luck. Leave in the comments if you will invest into this project or not and why?

Thank you for sharing this!

You should keep a running list in bold with links at the top of all the ico reviews.

What do you think about Etherparty.io (vs. Blockcat?)

Thanks!

You can see video review of LAToken ICO here - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zj2ktmYzl0c

Today I want to review the project that is called liquid assets token. The reason why I want to talk about is because we are joining the tokenization of economy. LAToken is one of the projects that already has a MVP and will be one of the projects that might change the economical situation around depts. Because of this type of companies appeared banking system and huge banks started to attract attention to blockchain technology early this year.
To make a long story short this company is proposing to tokenize real eatate, peaces of artwork and sell them partially to investors. For instance, if you want to buy out your house and instead of paying percentage to the banks you can buy it out by selling tokens and then buy out tokens with less commission during next years. Lets review what they have. I do not want to go through their website too deeply. You can see all that interesting information, eye catching animation. They have a preaty strong team from what I learned. Their CEO did some project in Russia bout getting credits. They have their first round of token sell. By the way they have live support that answers questions which is nice.
They did good job in marketing. They did a presentation which looks nice. Of course some of the ideas are way to optimistic about selling tokens of pyramids in Egypt.
This team is aming to help four groups of individuals to rais money:
1) Equity
2) Dept
3) Real estate
4) Work of art
The main adavantage of this way of raising money is that you have very low commission rates. You can see the differenct between LAToken and ordinary exchange.
Comparing 6 months to 1 week of preparation. Of course you can do an ICO. Everybody knows this.
I am not very strong about leagal issues in USA and I am not sure how they will deal with Securities and Exchange Commission. They are proposing very low fees on the trades which is 0.001% and 0.01% on assets creation.
From what I saw on their website and whitepaper. They have already a working product. I am not sure how real those numbers are. Some of the items are part of the test network. It is a good idea for a prjoect that is constantly updated so you distinguish what they are doing new and at the same time have working with real assets.
Project team is very active in social network. They visit different conferences, make photos with famous people from [Suspicious link removed]munity. They even a have a video with Etherium found where they share ideas and get feedback.
Token distribution. They are planning to raise 400.000 Eth which is now $120 million.
They create 400 million tokens and other 600 million tokens will be frozen for next 10 years. They assume that company and project will grow.
Let`s see how they are planning to use their funds.
40% will be used to engage new investors and owners.
10% spent on development. Taking into account that they say the product is ready it is ok to have such small percentage for development.
They are also going to provide an ability to develop assets on their platform.
The important thing is that team bonus pool is 10% with a cap of $1 million. It means that they will not just take 10% of all the money raise and throw them into a bank account and fly to some islands.
If there are people watching this video who know how legal this stuff is and is there a chance for that project to be block by SEC share with us your opinion. I see this as the greatest risk.
I want to remind you that this article is created only for educational purposes and you invest into any ICO at your own risk.

Today we are reviewing an ICO project called Tracor. Instead of reviewing 6 ICOs like I did yesterday I decided to pick on that I think might worth our while and that might have a breakthrough in the next few years. This project is dedicated to logistic industry and what they are saying is that they will revolutionize the self-storage, tracking and logistic industry in the future.
First of all I want to mention a couple of mistakes or things that the guys did not think about. On the homepage I did not find anything about the team. But I found it in their whitepaper but without any links to linkedin profiles or any other personal social networks so we can reach them.
The second thing why didn't they put any countdown here. It usually motivates and creates sort of urgency.
Let`s review their whitepaper and see what they are planning to do. Tracor is a decentralized platform allowing users to connect, buy & sell their storage capacity, and buy & sell goods internationally while being able to track it real time. That is a very interesting idea and they had mentioned in their medium blog a self-explanatory phrase "Would you like to be able to list your self-storage and make extra income by renting it out, similar to Airbnb". Those guys have ambitious plans. We can find their team down below in the white paper. The team looks profession and able to achieve the goals they have. The only thing as I mentioned I do not see any links to linkedin profiles. And I do not want to google them to see who they are. May be the team will see and fix that issue.
Now the guys are aiming for a business for many years. You can see it not only from their goals but also from how they are planning to distribute their tokens. They are planning to distribute 700 million tokens. 600 million will go to contributors (investors during ICO), 50 million is 20% bonus. Only 30 million tokens will go to the team and 20 million to advisory board. That will vest over the course of 2 years. That makes me think that people believe in their project and for sure will do the best to finalize it.
The other important thing to mention is that their system will have Proof-of-Stake consensus. And token holders will be able to participate in the evolution process. That will allow to get people involved and get feedback from the community. They say in their whitepaper that they will use most of money raised towards development.
According to their roadmap they are planning to make first release in January 2018 which is less than in a half a year.
I also want to take a look at their twitter account. Let's see where it was.
They have 2600 followers and the number of posts and likes which is close to 0 makes me think they do not use any black promotion techniques for their twitter account.

Let us wish this team good luck, collect the money, do the project and we will look closely at their results in future programs.

Thanks for your question. I had already answered it in my first post in that topic: "I am doing analytics to pick up interesting ICOs to invest and want to share this information with others. However I do not want to tell you exactly where to invest."

you give a logical and appropriate exposure to education for beginners who want to follow ico, want to invest or in bounty projects. But my question is, what do you want to say? Do you have ico project? If yes what is it.

Hello. Sure. Send me a personal message and we will discuss it.

hey! thanks for the information this thread helps me alot.... the way how you look and review ICO is very much concrete and strict. If you dont mind i would pm you one company i am scouting for a month for there ICO and upcoming Coins in the blockchain. i would like to see what is your insight about that company.

thank you and best regard!

Has anyone heard of ATShttp://bounty.authorship.com/ref/Y8114461 not sure how good it is but giving away 75 tokens said to be worth $10 in ETH at the moment

There are some interesting projects for me, spheris, cindicator, rootproject, monetha and utrust. Can you give me a review about monetha and utrust, because I want to invest there.

We are doing reviews of ICOs and we got an example of how not to do an ICO website.
Welcome to torrent chain project. First, I want to mention that I like the idea of mixing blockchain and torrents. You can share your opinion in the comments to this video. But looking at this website scroll down. Crowdsale details. Ok. Torrent distribution. It is good to have percentage of how many tokens will go where. Cause here it is not obvious how many percentage it is: 1, 2, 3, 4, or 5 percents.
Ok. Userfriendly, rewarding. Great. They had described how they will be doing it. But let's take a look at their RoadMap. They had started in 2015 and in July 2017 they had started security and privacy audit. But they are planning to finish it guess when. After the crowdsale. I do not like that idea. I would like to see that report before the crowdsale will start. In any case lest see further they have on their website. Look at the team. No names, nothing is clickable. How should I understand that you guys are real? That you are not a teenager that did not graduate from high school and trying to raise some money using ICO instruments.
I decided to take a look who and when registered the domain name. Looks like the domain name was registered just a few weeks ago. All that makes me think that this is not something serious. May be the team of TorrentChain will get in touch with us and how what they are doing, their github, social networks, so we can talk to them and ask if they are real or not.
Leave your comments to this video and let's move on to the next one.

What do you think about this project?

Today we are reviewing ICOs and the next project to review is Feeed. This project is about fundraising money for small startups. Hold on is not the ICO about raising money for startups? Well. Let's move on. You can see this nice video that those guys had created for us. You can also find it in the project Wiki.
The first thing I did not find on the homepage is the RoadMap. What they say is that RoadMap is on trello. But everything is in progress even the RoadMap. Cmon guys everything should be there including the RoadMap. Make it public and very concrete with milestones.
Lets see their trello. Roadmap is in "Progress" stage. That is what he meant.
Moving on.
What those guys are planning to do is allow people  to vote, to invest into projects and according to their whitepaper here is the functionality that will be in their system:
- opinions about project (like kickstarter)
- upvoting for the most trusted startups (like product hunt)
- follow the evolution of the startups.
- track accounts on feeed.
- track the amount of feeed in circulation.
- knowing the total valuation of the fund.
Good. Lets see what they have about tokens. Token distribution. 90 million tokens will be distributed. The top cap is $20 million. At least they show what their hard cap is.
How are they planning to spend money they will raise? Do not see here.
Oh, the roadmap is part of the white paper.
So they are  in process of development. They are planning to launch it in september.  Open feeed startup investment already in october. Good for them.
Those guys are pretty active and open on their social networks: facebook, twitter. Not afraid to show their faces. Looks like  they are working. Doing some commits on github. They are being discussed on bitcointalk. Everything looks so far transparent and clear.

Now. Things I do not like and I want to mention. The first thing that I did not find how they will use the money raised. I understand that it looks like there are only two of them in the project and it is hard to do everything: development, put all of the updates on the website, etc.
I do not want to be too unoptimistic about this project. At least I see all the attributes the project should have.
I wish them good luck.

We continue discussing projects that are going to ICO on August 20th and the next project is Umbrella Coin. I went through their whitepaper and their website and first I want to talk about the team. This is the first website where I see almost the whole team on one photo. What I notice from their linkedin profiles is that most of them are working for Microsoft right now. Only Terry Tata and SOn Nguyen had mentioned that they are in Umbrella Coin project.

Let's move forward. What are they doing? They are sort of revolutionizing the insurance industry by bringing the blockchain and letting community decide if you should receive your insurance payment or not. The crowd intelligence is a nice idea. We like that idea. We can wish good luck to those guys.

To be honest I do not like their website with that background and scrolling thing. But what I can tell you exactly that they have very clear videos on their homepage. They are pretty active in social networks. However some of the posts looks to me having too many likes and reposts compared to the number of subscribers. But all this depends on how your audience is.  They are also presented in the facebook. They had mentioned in one of the articles on their medium blog that they made some big steps forward. So I decided to take a look at their github. And guess what, yes they have some progress. The way I figure out they are doing something is cause they got 41 commits in one of the branches and in another one they have 65 commits. Here are the updates.

Write in the comments to this video what do you think should we invest into this company or not? Do you see any concerns besides those I had mentioned? Do you think insurance industry is ready for such blockchain project or will it be ready in the next two years?
Ok. Lets move on

Current project we are reviewing Imperium intends to revolutionise betting industry. What they are trying to do right now is do the same functionality that betting exchanges have already but make it with zero fees. I have several questions. First of all, is how they are going to compete with such big players like betfair.com which are
in that industry for many years. Of course betfair takes up to 6% commission. But still it has being stable. Let`s see what they propose. No fees, no limits, no risks. No risks with the blockchain. It all depends on miners you know. Let`s move on. The team decided to stay anonymous. It is not a bad idea if you are doing a betting project. But if you are planning to raise money on ICO how can we make sure that those guys know enough and have skill to complete this project.
Of course the answers to the Frequently asked questions makes me think that they did good job research. But I can not find anything proving me that I need to invest into this project unless I see something like an MVP.
What about Roadmap? They are planning to go to the exchange in the last quarter of this year. Right now they are raising and then they are going to exchanges. I wonder when are they planning to do the development?
May be I am missing something here. If you have any additional information please share it with us in the comments.
Now let's move on. According to their blog on medium.com they are saying that they do not want to show their names because they are aiming to a multi billion industry where some part of it is controlled by black market. I can understand that. However from what I read in articles when Betfair appeared they were also going into the same industry competing with the same bookmakers or bookkeeping companies. and they were completely open and transparent.
I decided to take a look when did they register their domain name. It was less than 5 weeks ago. Not much time has gone since then.
The twitter account. They got Spart. Twice. Hello Sparta. This is Sparta! Cmon. They started social activity less than a month ago. And their facebook fan page. They are trying to be active here but the anonymousness does not make me confident to invest into this project.
The decision is up to you. Write in comments if you will invest into this project or not? What concerns do you have about it? And may be the team of Imperium will get in touch with us and answer our questions.

thanks for the infos! added to my bookmark and will follow this topic closely!

MEDX token sale date and details will be announced in a few weeks. The launch will be in Q4 2017, but we have not announced the date yet. Good idea about adding LinkedIn links. Look forward to staying in touch.

Today is August 20th and we are going to review several ICOs that are coming soon. First I want to remind everybody that all videos on TokenSell channel are only for educational purpose only and you invest into any of the ICOs at your own risk. Please before investing anywhere go through the project website, get in touch with the team and make sure everything is real. Here we are only to express our own opinion about what is going and what we see.
The first project to review will be FLiK. FLiK is an end-to-end entertainment ecosystem that allows for creative projects to be funded, filmed and distributed.
Let`s take a look at the team. So we see the founder and co-owner T.I. The first thing I thought about Clifford Harris joining the project should be mentioned somewhere in the social. So let`s check it. I saw on his account in twitter that he retweeted that announcement and even got 2700 retweets. Let's move on. Tony Gallippi is also part of the team. Looks like those guys already did a project called BitPay. In any case we are trying to figure out if FLik worth a while. While reviewing their whitepaper I had noticed that those guys are planning to raise more than 100 million bucks. Here are the token distribution part. They are planning to sell 540 million tokens. 1000 tokens costs 2 eth.
I did not see anything about the tech team but in their blog I saw that they are planning to outsource some of technical work. Digital Glue will help them in deployment in network installations. But how will you create the coins? And will you distribute them at all?
If you see where this information is please let me know in the comments to the video review.

Do you have ICO date already identified? I do not see you in any of the ICO calendars online. I am trying to review most of the ICOs that will start soon or just started.
In any case your project looks interesting and promising. You might wanna add links to your linkedin and other social profiles in your team section.
Let`s stay in touch and do your full review later on.

Thanks. I really appreciate that. I will review DIMCOIN in the nearest few days. As far as I see they had almost raised $10 million which is their goal. Anyways I will take a closer look and will share it here.
