The team have also come up with an interesting economy which sees tokens burned as API fees, and various members of the ecosystem are required to stake VNT tokens in order to participate in the network. This leads to the token having more intrinsic value similar to ETH on the Ethereum network. In addition, they have also stated that 35% of tokens will be sold to investors and all unsold tokens will be burned.
Finally, the VANTA blockchain is a specialized blockchain aimed at real-time networking related services such as high-definition broadcast streaming, group video calls, and low latency data processing. The team are also targeting sectors such as education, entertainment, gaming, finance, and governmental organizations, and plan to build a platform blockchain, and also provide a core module in the form of an SDK and/or API to allow platform-independent access to the VANTA network. Users of current leading platforms and applications will be able to connect to VANTA to access real-time networking and this should help the project’s expansion and ability to onboard new users. VANTA as a company has a large scope and the team’s vision is to reach for the stars. They are ambitious, and judging by their previous accomplishments and the network architecture they presented, we believe VANTA has a good chance to eventually become a solid player in the decentralized industry.
In short, the project has a good mix of solid business experience, secure partnerships, strong team members, and thoughtful tokenomics. Despite, this it may still be a while before VANTA gains traction and develops a significant user base and dApp ecosystem, and only time will tell if the extended roadmap will work in opposition to the prolonged bull run. We believe this is an interesting project which should not be neglected.

✅ MAGNACHAIN REVIEW UPDATE ✅
▶️ Read the full review at the following link: https://bit.ly/2SO3GW9
New Project Rating: 7̶4̶%̶ >> 79%
Updates:
• Hardcap decreased from $20 million to $4.5 million
• The developer community has received a number of toolsets and SDKs through which they can deploy their own environments and start building applications on top of MagnaChain
• Through the hard cap reduction, the team has been able to position the project at a definitive advantage on the market structure compared to the other players of the blockchain infrastructure industry
• Improved website and documentation to better reflect the goals and create a language structured for a broader audience
• Dedicated page for developers on MagnaChain's website - knowledge base, FAQs, and a forum for developers
• New project partners
• Organized game developing competitions in partnership with the Korean Mobile Gaming Association and Bitgosu
• Several games that run on MagnaChain are in production
Since we have initially reviewed MagnaChain, the team have mead great progress. With a successful release of their mainnet and improvement in the business model and development areas. They still somewhat lack marketing efforts and exposure among potential investors, however they should have no problem with raising the $4.5 million that the team requires in order to proceed forward. MagnaChain operates in a very lucrative sector – that is the gaming industry. We believe MagnaChain deserves more exposure and the increase in the project’s total rating is well desrved.

✅ ELROND NETWORK REVIEW UPDATE ✅
▶️ Read the full review at the following link: https://bit.ly/2M9HAJM
New Project Rating: 7̶7̶%̶ >> 80%
Updates:
• Hardcap has been announced - $15.2 million
• Token metrics have been released and 55% of the total supply is dedicated to investors
• Public prototype has been released and test net is in progress
• Elrond Network is now a fully open-sourced project
• Improved documentation and website
• Revamped project roadmap; the team has completed their milestones in a timely manner this far
• New roadmap additions: Elrond's VM with Smart Contracts and Testnet Audit in Q1 2019 + Creation of the Elrdon Hub and Elrond Society in Q3 2019
• Elrond Initiates Cooperation With Leading Payment Provider NETOPIA Payments
• Elrond's team has expanded to a total of 17 team members (from 9), adding new software engineers, devleopers, and researchers, along with marketing and UI/UX designers
• New advisor: Sunny Aggarwal who is a core devloper for Tendermint/Cosmos projects, and one of the Co-Founders of the research group Blockchain at Barkeley
❗️10% of the tokens (dedicated to advisory board and partners) have no lock-up, and neither do we know what discounts they were given at. If the discounts are above 50%, then this can potentially make Elrond a risky investment in the short-term
Overall, we believe Elrond Network have made good progress since 6 months ago, developing their product, expanding their team, and expanding their vision to turn Elrond into a powerhouse one day. The partnership with NETOPIA will also allow Elrond to actually test the product with a real-life use-case, and work on that in order to make their platform commercially viable. With that said, we think there is still a lot of work that needs to be done, but moving forward if they make as much progress as they have done in the past six months we expect that 2020 will be a lucrative year for Elrond. Lastly, the hard cap of the project is high considering the market sentiment, and hence we believe it will not be filled. However, unsold tokens will be burnt, so a shortcoming of the hard cap can actually play in the investors' benefit.

New Project Rating: 7̶4̶%̶ >> 79%
Updates:
• Hardcap has been reduced - 1,500 BTC
• OMI token issued as GO-20 tokens on GoChain
• OMI Non Fungible Tokens (digital collectibles) issued as GO-721 tokens
• Public sale via use of an Initial Exchange Offering (IEO) - the exact exchange is not known yet
• All private and public sale tokens will be immediately unlocked and available for trading post IEO
• Hardware wallets (Secure Wallet & ECOMI Collect Wallet) will support the storage of NFT collectables. ECOMI Collect Wallets will be sold at 4000+ retail channels for $29.99 USD RRP
• Roadmap milestones have been achieved this far - ECOMI Collect V1 scheduled for Q1 2019
• ECOMI Collect App has been revamped and has new functions: marketplace for collectibles, showroom, augmented reality etc.
• Secure Wallet now costs $99 instead of $189
• New partnerships with GoChain, CraneKahn, and 15 major content licensing partnerships with leading television, video game and “lifestyle” brands
• New advisors added to the board: Ben Godenzi, Andrew Lee, and Jonty Kelt - read more about who they are on CryptoCalibur
• Head of Global Licensing is Alfred Kahn, responsible for some of the biggest releases in the licensing industry, including Pokémon, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Cabbage Patch Kids, onboarded the ECOMI team
ECOMI's products have potential to become mainstream. With the Secure Wallet being at the base of the ecosystem, and the ECOMI Collect being the company's flagship product, ECOMI can possibly reach a mass market of the pop culture. Since we've reviewed ECOMI, the team has done a great job in terms of product development and expanding the brand. The team has been expanded, new key partnerships have been made, the first version of ECOMI Collect is almost here and soon after the retail package will be rolled out to 4,000 brick-and-mortar shops. Lowering the hard cap to an amount that is sufficient for short-term expansion and product development was also a good move. ECOMI can potentially be one of the first dozen cryptocurrency companies that will successfully reach a significant number of end consumers.

📈 Lition In-Depth Review & Rating is online!
▶️ Read the full review at the following link: https://bit.ly/2DfiRk8
The team at Lition is developing a highly scalable next generation blockchain project that incorporates both public and private blockchains aimed at enterprises and various commercial entities. Lition enables the deletion of data stored on the blockchain and is tasked with allowing businesses to produce DLT based commercial products, and to move seamlessly from the Proof-of-Concept stage to creating legally compliant, blockchain based applications that are ready for mass-market adoption.
Lition aims to do this by making use of permissioned sidechains that can be altered as required, in addition to permissioned and permissionless nodes, with the project also incorporating a Layer 2 scaling solution to improve speed and efficiency. The team are working in conjunction with SAP, the world’s largest producer of business software, and the combination of a permissioned distributed storage engine from SAP and Lition’s permissionless consensus system provides businesses a high-throughput, low-latency private transaction solution with public validation for select records. Early on in their whitepaper, the team outline the following key features:
• A light client that can run on IoT devices.
• Low transaction costs, smart contract executions now cost $0.60 and are set to drop to $0.01.
• Fast block confirmation times of 1 to 3 seconds.
• Private Sidechains for private data.
• API interface for chain/backend communication for easy developer access.
• Data can be deleted from the blockchain
In order to be a leader in the provision of commercial blockchain services, the team plan to comply with GDPR (General Data Protection Rules) which is prevalent in the EU, and as a result, anyone will be able to store their private data with the knowledge that it can be deleted whenever necessary, while highly sensitive data can be stored on private sidechains and also remain safe from quantum-computers.

Lition is a one of the stronger ICO projects currently in operation and remains a good example of a next generation ICO. Lition already has a working product with their P2P Energy Trading Exchange dApp is in operation in Germany, and the team have employed sensible tokenomics, and are working within the confines of a realistic hard cap of $8 million, while the soft cap amount of $2 million has already been reached. This gives the team significant funds to continue developing the project.
In addition, the presence of advisor Dr. Jürgen Müller who is the CTO and Board Member of SAP is a major plus. Jürgen advises SAPs executive board on all innovation-related topics in the tech field, and as Lition’s chief advisor for innovation and blockchain technology, he should assure Lition develops technically sound, innovative solutions that can achieve widespread commercial adoption. As well as the co-innovation agreement with SAP, Lition has entered into an agreement with GASAG, an energy partner with over 1 million customers, and $1 billion in revenue. Furthermore, LongHash, a blockchain accelerator with offices across Asia, LD Capita, an Asian investment fund, and Alpha Labs, a crypto assets fund based in South Korea are all backing the project. Despite these positives, we will have to take the team at their word that no excessive bonuses have been given out, and that early stage investors will hold onto their tokens. However, to encourage this, the team have come up with the “Hodl Highway” which sees investors who sell within the first 30 days of the TGE receive less than a 5% bonus, and those who hold for 180 days will receive 30% worth of bonus tokens.

This should fill retail investors with confidence and the team has been transparent with regards to their tokensale and overall token economics. The launch of the Testnet 1.0 in Q1 will also help to build positive sentiment with investors, although the mainnet will not launch publically until Q3 which means investors may have to wait for 6 months. During this time, Lition will face competition from established blockchains, scaling projects, and STO platforms, and will have to hit the ground running to get ahead. The launch of their second use case MVP and syndicated loan dApp is planned to take place shortly, and announcing their banking and real estate partners, alongside successfully tokenizing the proposed €20 million loan may prove crucial in establishing Lition as a viable STO solution. Lition has a lot to like, and the recent strong performance of LTO Network may herald the ascendancy of strong enterprise focussed projects with sensible tokenomics. This far we like Lition a lot!

EOS vs Amazon's AWS | A New Way of Hosting
https://bit.ly/2GI1hc5
A recent report showed that EOS can’t be considered to be a blockchain as it lacks certain criteria like cryptographic proof of validity of state changes, and a byzantine fault tolerant consensus algorithm. We go the extra mile, and take a further look into EOS's potential to become an AWS competitor.

This article summarizes the core ideas of at least two dozen whitepapers and projects that will not be happy with the oversimplified presentation of their contributions. The goal was to cover every major development out there at least briefly. Together they will eventually lead to infinite scalability of decentralized networks with blockchains as a major building block of the world computer for the primary purpose of synchronization.

In 1937 Hayek released an essay noscriptd “Economics and Knowledge” which describes the idea that economy at its core is about organizing knowledge transfer in the most efficient way. The knowledge is stored in the heads of the participants of an economy and the cooperation is governed by rules that allow finding agreements to facilitate connecting the knowledge silos for greater good. In the future, value will be created by the services that are made available on top of the native protocol tokens whose main value proposition is to pay for transaction fees.

The recent January launches of both the Grin and Beam projects have led to a significant increase in the amount of attention being paid to privacy protocols once again. The two digital currencies make use of the groundbreaking Mimblewimble protocol and look set to disrupt a market sector currently dominated by respected currencies such as Monero and Zcash. We take a deeper look at the two projects and the cutting edge technology which underpins them.

📈 Fetch.AI In-Depth Review & Rating is online!
▶️ Read the full review at the following link: https://bit.ly/2GSqnFa
Fetch.AI aims to create a decentralized digital network that facilitates an infinite number of marketplaces and user interactions, and acts as a conduit for a new world of economic activity. Fetch.AI is built using an extended version of distributed ledger technology (DLT), and incorporates Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) technology, combined with advanced measures of a trust protocol, to create a platform where autonomous software agents, working on behalf of their stakeholder (human owners, organisations, corporations) perform tasks such as delivering data or providing services.
There are three core layers of the Fetch.AI architecture:
• Autonomous Economic Agents
• The Open Economic Framework
• The Smart Ledger
Network agents or Autonomous Economic Agents (AEAs) work in a variety of ways, namely, individually, in partnerships, serially or in parallel, and can represent humans or non-human entities such as data or services. Agents are rewarded with the Fetch.AI token for their efforts, and connect to the world via the Open Economic Framework (OEF) which presents a part of the ecosystem specifically tailored to each individual agent.
The Smart Ledger underpins the system integrity and maintains network security through consensus made up of a unique combination of Proof of Stake (PoS), notarized DAG and useful Proof of Work (μPoW®). The Fetch.AI protocol ensures that the distributed ledger mechanism, machine learning and trust combine to create an intelligence driven agent system. Fetch.AI aims to automate a wide variety of common interactions and host marketplaces for the transfer of data, computation power, energy, travel solutions, supply chain management solutions, and a host of tasks and hardware services.

Fetch.AI is an ambitious project with a number of strong points and these include a strong team with a solid academic foundation and core members with decades of experience of working in AI and ML. In addition, a significant number of developers have experience of working with leading corporations such as Google, SAP, Bloomberg, Sony, and Nokia.
Fetch.AI has also partnered with Trusted IoT Alliance, MOBI, Warwick Business School, Blockchain for Europe, and crucially Outlier Ventures. The latter still retains a good reputation in the space and isn’t known for taking part in some of the practices conducted by the more “cutthroat” Venture Funds. The team have also arranged for their public sale to take place on Binance Launchpad which allows them to benefit from their exchange’s vast network and influence and also highlights their ability to network and achieve actionable results.
By going through Binance, Fetch.AI has also been highly transparent and produced a large amount of information about various aspects of their project including seed and private sale rounds. However, this leads us into areas of concern according to Binance; the team had already used approximately 85% of SAFT funds by December 1, 2018. This is worrisome, and may be the reason for such a high valuation, and the large team will surely lead to a high burn rate with a high proportion of funds being allocated to staff and salary costs and securing commercial and academic partnerships.

The possibility of a high burn rate brings the fact that the merger of DLT, AI, and ML is still highly theoretical and combines features that are still to be proven to work in the real world. Furthermore, the mainnet release is scheduled for Q4 2019 meaning that investors may have to wait until 2020 or beyond for significant developments on the platform. The burn rate may also explain why the team first aimed to raise $30 million for 20% of the total token supply thus giving Fetch.AI a valuation of $150m, and even after reducing the hard cap to $6 million for 6% of the total token supply, Fetch.AI still has a valuation close to $100m. Crowdsale participants will only have access to 17.6% of the tokens, half of the supply being allocated to the tokensale, mining, and future releases, meaning the other half remain in the hands of the foundation, team, and founders.
Depending on your stance these metrics may prove to be off-putting, however, the team have been highly transparent and produced all the necessary information on vesting periods, and the FET token release schedule. Public sale participants will receive their tokens immediately and be free to trade them on Binance which may prove attractive in light of the performance of BitTorrent’s BTT token.
As a result, Fetch.AI may suit braver members of the community who may be attracted by the possibility that FET matches the performance of BTT. More conservative members may choose to keep an eye on project developments of get involved in the project later on once significant milestones have been achieved and FET tokens are less prone to speculative interest.

PRISM | A Proposed Update to Proof of Work (PoW)
https://bit.ly/2Xk7Kji
The PRISM algorithm focuses on the problems that are limiting the capacity on the Bitcoin network. Bitcoin is not the fastest blockchain, but currently the most secure one. The main reason for the scalability limitations is seen in the occurrence of forks which have to be avoided at all costs. Two naive measures that would immediately increase transaction capacity are therefore ruled out, namely bigger blocks and faster block times. This limits the utilization of the underlying network infrastructure for the sake of security to the available capacity minus the security margin to keep the risk of forking small.

✅ ELROND NETWORK REVIEW UPDATE ✅
▶️ Read the full review at the following link: https://bit.ly/2ULHkoL
New Project Rating: 8̶0̶%̶ >> 84%
Updates:
• Hard cap has been reduced from $15.2 million to $5 million
• Iteration of the network is now being written in GO code language, bringing more efficiency and usability to developers
• Team has achieved +3,750 TPS in a single shard
• V1.0 of the testnet has been released
• New partnership with the Distributed System Research Laboratory - expanding the projects' scope into researching areas of applicability of blockchain and the possiblity of Elrond being utilized for decentralized management of demand response program in smart energy grids
• New reoadmap has been released - mainnet is expected in Q2-Q3 along with token swap and the integration of Elrond with a payment provider to create a payment gateway
• Team growth to 18 members (1 more added since last update) and partnership with Sunny Aggarwal is on hold as he is currently busy developing the Tendermit/Cosmos environment
• The team has recently debuted their marketing and community program, with the launch of their community platform where they have a mechanism to reward users based on engagement
Elrond’s team have been making considerable progress since last time we have reviewed them. Their team have self-funded the research and development for more than a year, and now they are preparing to finalize their raise through an upcoming ICO. The core team have been in the cryptocurrency space long-enough to learn the ins and outs (icomarketdata.com creators), and on top of that they have impressive technical expertise. Elrond Network’s main mission is to offer a blockchain that is both decentralized and secure without sacrificing one or the other. We have seen their testnet in action, and thus far they are on the road to success. Moreover, we expect Elrond to gain some massive traction in the following weeks, and if they continue focusing on the community and deliver milestones in time, Elrond can become the next best blockchain.
