During the preliminary  TGE the  DBIP ( Dolphin  BI  Preliminary)  ERC20 token  will  be  generated. Where and how ERC20 token can be used?

The main purpose of DBIP is to distinguish it from main DOBI token which will be generated during main TGE.
During the presale transfers of DBIP tokens is locked inside a ERC20. After presale finishes and before we start migrating DBIP into DOBI (before main TGE) these tokens can be transfered between accounts by tokenholders with standards ERC20 methods.

50% will be put into Escrow service and withdrawal will be allowed on successful accomplishment of roadmap milestones. As I understood from Whitepaper, there are 8 milestones. After the end of which milestone withdrawal from Escrowal account would be possible?

We will set amount for each milestone. It will be done by the main TGE (~ICO).

Could you please tell me what are Escrow and incubation services, that you are planning to develop in the future? And also what is KYC/AML service?

It's a far enough plans so there's not a lot of details.

An escrow service will allow to lock funds gathered by ICO and allow some Experts with a high reputation to make a consensus decision that a given milestone of the project has been reached and funds should be unlocked.

Incubation means that a project who is preparing for pre-ICO or ICO to receive from Experts with a high reputation a private esimation of project readiness and some suggetions.

Some countries in near future will definitely require to identify project founders and/or project backers. So we could also provide such services to our users.

One more question. Compensation for  prepaid, who pays in advance, gets bonuses. If we imagine that business model will go with "Standard scenario", from which fund you are going to compensate subscribers?

Prepaid bounus don't use a compenstaion fund which is zero in standard scenario. It works if prices for services changes:
- if price is go up then user will use prepaid services without additiona charge (=get bonus)
- e.g. if user has paid for three month and starting from the third month the price has gone down then we need to return some DOBI.
We will reserve some DOBI received in such way to be able to compensate possible price changes. But also the maybe need for some reserve fund for long prepaids. So thanks for a good question and we will thinks and make it clear new WP revision.

OK, The subscriber will pay his fee and 80% goes to the authors and experts and 20% goes to the system. But will the user (simple subscriber) know exactly to whom his money got via using free widget? Maybe he wants to control the percentage of money going to experts or authors? Cause he may distrust widget fund in somewhat way.

In our smart-contract core there will be a voting system. Some number of users can set a question on voting and the community could change the rules of the system.

I didn't get a point from rewards system. I mean in case of experts ( as I understood, experts show their reports and that reports are estimated by subscribers and "automatically".) I didn't get, how reports could be estimated automatically?? Which methods are used?(may be the amount of words in report? Or what?)

We mean that reports of Experts will be estimated by Subscribers. But Experts could also supply a structured information in the same or in another widget: some characteristics estimation (e.g. how much an ICO will collect, how fast an ICO collect softcap etc) which can be estimated automatically by the system.

To say the truth, it's a very interesting and ambitious project. It unites consumers and sellers in efficient way. But it's intersting for me personally, are there any limitations on or max level of price/fee which is set on widget by authors themselves? I mean that if the author sees his widget is becoming more and more popular, won't he establish too high price, so that the widget will be affordable only for small percentage of users? Does your company consider it's as aproblem?

Thanks for warm words!  Smiley

We think that it should be a fair marketplace: if there's a great widget then rivals are also here and can work hard to take their own piece. So competition should bring the best value/cost to the subscribers.

So, you've described your costs in a table. Don't you think that there could arise additional spendings and how would they be covered with low initial investment prediction?

We are sure that planned product development fund is huge enough to cover all development costs until the platfrom starts earning money.
And yeah, our platfrom is more like a traditional business: we plan not only to create a product with crypto tokens but to earn this tokens by ourselfs to develop further the platfrom.

What problems  have you already faced while preparing your project in terms of legalization of the project and the legalization of ICO?
First of all it was a SEC investigative report on the DAO.
Second was a decision of People’s Bank of China to ban ICOs.
Both causes us to rewrite the whitepaper so that our Token will be an utility token for 100% and rewrite token generation event terms.

So, the question is who will be rating the automatic systems of evaluating (how they will get access to blockchain projects if they are not trustworthy) and will the author of them get paid for it?


If I understand you right, you are asking about how automatic widgets will be rated?
We utilize 'usage statistics' for that: if more Subscribers use a widget then more reward will receive widget's Author.

Thank you for the answer! Smiley But I have another question. Could you please explain how the smart contracts are going to be used in the Dolphin BI?

Thanks for a good question!

We plan to use Ethereum smart-contract as a platfrom core which implement the following functions:
- update Experts’ ratings
- distribute reward among Experts and Authors (in DOBI tokens)
- accept monthly subscription fees (in DOBI tokens) and assign widget access rights for Subscribers (e.g. on pay-per-month basis)
- voting on platform rules updates

This contract will use ERC20 tokens named DOBI. A gateway with Waves Platfrom is planned to be implemented to allow a user to buy and sell DOBI tokens through the Waves Platfrom wallet and DEX.

Frontend is planned to be implemented as a webservice initially and then also a mobile apps will be developed (as descibed in our roadmap). If DApps become widely adopted we will think to implement our Frontend as DApp.

Widgets and Data Providers are to be implemented as Docker containers (we already have this architecture in beta.dolphin.bi). If a decentralized computing becomes widely adopted (Golem, SONM, iExec etc) we will think on moving to a decentralized architecture in this part.

There were some questions regarding our product demo which consists of three parts. We wanted to clarify these things for everybody.

You can already use Bitcointalk Sentiment Analysis – it is an MVP. We take the first 100 pages from altcoin announcement topics, and grade each post as “negative”, “neutral” and “positive” using machine learning algorithms; the grading updates each 10-20 minutes. The graph shows the number of posts and their polarity chronologically.

ICOFaces is a prototype, its value is proportional to the database size – it is now small, but we are expanding it each day.

The dashboard is a prototype as well and it displays basic functionality the widgets will have – the user can freely move them around the dashboard. The widget contains visualization for some data from a Docker container, so the dashboard prototype follows the general architecture the platform will have – the widgets and data sources are isolated inside Docker containers, while the dashboard provides a user interface where one can freely manipulate widget sizes and locations.

Here's a video demonstration of how to use these three modules: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS2QCivN3tU
We hope that this demo will give you some initial understanding of our platform's design.

Ok, got it.
Also, who is going to be Curators-Subscribers to take care of rating system? Are you going to do this? How are you going to ensure inpartiality?

The entire rating system is handled by a smart-contract. The ratings are calculated strictly according to formulae described in the whitepaper. We are also planning to create a separate contract for upgrade proposition voting that would allow the community to change the rules if required.

ICO list curation is a bit more complicated - we will probably have to oversee the curation process ourselves in the beginning, before the critical mass of trustworthy users is gathered. Then is should become self-regulating - think Wikipedia.

Exactly! And I would like to add that initially Curators-Subscribers will be that users who hold a huge part of tokens. We expect it would be a dev team and early backers.
These tokenholders are motivated (because of their tokens, furthermore dev team has vesting period) that platform will develop constantly and community of Experts and Authors will grow and bring values to Subscribers as expected.

Later when desired culture will be developed we will propose to change voting function so huge tokenholders won't have significantly more voting influence as regular tokenholders. So community becomes self-governed. So it becomes a DAO.

This, there are so many of ICO nowadays. Could devs explain it more in detail about Dolphin BI?

Agree. See my previous post with some explanation:
Our current vision of Dolphin BI is more close but not equal to ICO listings and ICO ratings but with significant differences:
1) we don't select ICO which to list or which do not list. So anybody can put their ICO info on our site to receive a feedback from community. Our community of experts will do a moderation while we only provide a plarform. We also don't get paid for ICO to be listed.
2) any Expert can work for his/her own and build their own reputation in community and receive a reward for contribution.
3) any Author (e.g. third-party developer) can build their own analytical application on to of the platform, to provide some useful analytics to community and also to receive a reward which depends on application popularity.

We think that this way of ICO analysis is more close to principles of reaching a consensus in a decentralized manner.

And also the first post in this topic is also about our proposals and our key features.
Do you have any particular questions regarding our proposed product, team, terms etc?

Man, there are so much investment platforms already. How is this different from the rest? And a lot of them are under ICO prices right now. But I'm willing to consider if the devs explain more in detail yet simple to understand.

Could you please clarify, what do you mean by "investment platforms"? There are crypto investment funds, ICO listings, ICO ratings, ICO marketing agencies, "ICO turnkey" agencies, ICO incubators are on the way. Does it all fall into your "investment platforms" definition?
