With a stellar team and strong financial backing, Ultrain couldbecome a major player by 2019.

Risks

Even with an all-starteam, competing with the likes of Ethereum, EOS, and NEO is no small task. -1

Token metrics are a majoraspect which ico investors consider. Based on current information available,the total market cap valuation is $200 million which is rather high in thecurrent market. -1

The hype factor forUltrain, which carries weight in the current crypto market, isn’t consideredhigh. However, it is currently growing and gaining momentum. -1

Growth Opportunity

Ultrain will releaseimportant R&D milestones and be the keynote speaker at SF Blockchain week in October to kick-start the developer community building for Ultrain. Thereare several products to be released: (1) Public testnet launching, (2)Permitted mainnet launching, (3) Zero knowledge proof demo, and (4) MultipleDApps demo on chain. +3

Unitopia lab, a Blockchainresearch lab of the well-known Chinese video game developer Electronic Soul, announced a strategic partnership with Ultrain. Together, they will aim toestablish a presence in this new market and make Blockchain video games ahousehold product. +3

DApps will be able to usetheir own consensus mechanism or choose PoW, PoS, DPoS, POA, and RPOS. +2

Ultrain has an extensivelist of investing partners including Draper Dragon, FBG Capitol, KuCoin, andBixon. +2

Disposition

While Ultrain hasn’t gotten as much attention as some hyped up ico’s, this could work out in favor of investors who see an opportunity of an excellent project that’s been flying under the radar. The team and advisors are solid, they have a partnership with Unitopia lab, and they have the backing of numerous VC firms. All things considered, Ultrain receives a 7 out of 10 rating.

The year of 2019 is gonna be the age of DApp, whoever holds the most DApps and even a single killer app would be the go to choice for infrastructures. I like the fact that those partners are now working on Ultrian's public chain

Damn, glade to see some of the Ultrain post uphere. This is one of my favorite project out there, slightly low key at the point. If you start dig into the background on their whitepaper for a bit, you can see they have a pretty strong team; not made up by your average joe. There are three co-founders in the team, both the CEO and CTO are from Ant Financial, strong technical background with great experience, whereas the female co-founder is has rich experience in the capital side of things and exposed to great connection. I wouldn't go as far as saying that they are dream team, but i would say they are more than competent to establish a breakthrough public chain. But my understanding of the project is still quite limited on the technicel side of things, but based on some of the press release they are definitely doing stuff.
