Hi coin@coin! Thanks for your question. We have a pretty simple vision: we want to make the world a healthier place. And we believe that if people can access their own data, understand it, and use it make their own little part of the world a healthier place, that we’ll eventually make the whole world a healthier place.

In terms of our roadmap, our first priority is to grow the ecosystem – bigtime. We’ve been heads-down in development mode for the last two years, and during that time, we partnered with a number of large business customers to validate the platform and make sure the core capabilities were sound. Now that the platform is operational, we’re ready to grow. Our next big development milestone is to add the consumer interface, so that people can start going onto the platform and controlling their own data. That's why we're doing this BiQ token sale. The BiQ token will be the currency for all transactions on the BiQ Ecosystem, from data queries to buying products and services to donating data for research. By offering BiQ tokens now at a discount, we can start building a community of early adopters for when the BiQ Ecosystem launches in early 2018.

Regarding other industries, the short answer is yes. The BurstIQ platform can manage any kind of data, not just what we typically think of as health data. Over time, we expect to expand the scope of the platform to include water, finance, energy, community, education, and even some verticals that have yet to exist. We're starting with health because we feel the need is the greatest in this industry, but we are already talking with players in other industries about possible partnerships.
