newbie ICOs, will they really go anywhere? I guess there are too many stupid "investors" out there.

Same thought, the idea in general is always good, but it's doubtful that someone just pops up with a working technology to do all this.
Nevertheless, the guy who appears in the Youtube video does appear to exist, address and further information is easy to find (even FAA registration seems to check out). For as far that can be verified without having actual contact. Either a near perfect identity theft or just a normal guy.
He seems to believe in it though

/edit 1: And seems to have put more thinking and less marketing in the white paper than similar projects. In general that's just always the other way around.
