WHIRL : The next level in Crowdfunding is blockchain based !

What is WHIRL?

WHIRL is a socially driven, “pay it forward”-style crowdfunding platform that’s built on the blockchain. On WHIRL, you can only submit a fundraising campaign after you’ve donated to others, creating a positive feedback loop of generosity. WHIRL is inspired by historic community giving funds, but uses blockchain technology to enable anyone to participate, regardless of currency or geography. WHIRL is reinventing philanthropy by helping global nonprofits and charitable organizations access a new source of capital.

WHIRL’s mission

WHIRL is improving the lives of people around the world by giving them a new, better way to raise money for their projects, passions, and obligations, without having to ship rewards, ask friends and family for donations, or take out expensive loans. WHIRL is connecting people with one-another in mutual self-support, regardless of what they need money for, where they’re from, or who they are.

What makes WHIRL different?

WHIRL is the only crowdfunding platform that’s built on mutual self-support. Fundraisers raise money without shipping rewards or asking friends and family for charity. Backers earn karma points, which enable them to create their own fundraising campaigns later and determine their campaign’s position in WHIRL’s launch queue.

WHIRL only allows a limited number of campaigns to raise money at once, ensuring that everyone gets to share equally in the limelight. Active campaigns get chosen by a fair and transparent queue. This system solves one of the biggest problems facing crowdfunding today: declining success rate. (In the beginning, WHIRL will only list one project a time, but as the community grows that number will ramp-up proportionally.)

WHIRL is a socially-driven platform that gives special attention and platform benefits to campaigns by confirmed charitable organizations.

Because WHIRL is built on the blockchain, it’s truly global and facilitates payments with cryptocurrency in addition to fiat. There’s much less risk of fake donors, chargebacks, or banking friction. And fees are far lower than traditional crowdfunding platforms.

How WHIRL works

• In the beginning, WHIRL will list one fundraising campaign at a time to maximize exposure. Campaigns can cover any category (within WHIRL’s terms of service), from help paying medical bills to support starting or expanding a business.

• You can donate to campaigns directly with crypto or fiat. In return, you’ll receive 7 karma points for every dollar you spend. If you own WHIRL’s cryptocurrency, WRL, you’ll earn 10 karma per dollar. (Supporting the campaign with partner crypto, like KICK, will earn you 8.5 karma per dollar.) If you donate to a campaign from a featured nonprofit or charitable organization, you earn a bonus to karma.

• Once you reach 500 karma, you’re eligible to submit a campaign of your own. Tell WHIRL more about your campaign and fill out a KYC form. A moderator will review the campaign and, if it complies with site guidelines, they’ll approve it for the queue.

• If you work for a recognized nonprofit or charity organization, WHIRL will give your campaign access to one of two special featured placements. WHIRL will also waive platform fees, fast-track your placement, and incentivize backers with bonus karma.

• WHIRL uses a fair and transparent queuing system that prioritizes those with the most karma, but won’t forget you if you’ve been waiting a long time. No matter what, if you’ve entered the queue, your campaign will get listed.

• Sometimes, disaster strikes and funds are needed quickly. If your fundraising campaign ties directly to an urgent humanitarian crisis (like a natural disaster), WHIRL can fast-track it.
  
• Once your campaign has finished fundraising, your karma resets and the next campaign goes live. Now that you’ve had a successful raise, you’ll be excited to support others and immediately begin to work your way back to a new campaign. WHIRL anticipates that 90% of campaign creators will immediately begin the process anew.

Charitable Giving

Reinventing social giving and philanthropy is one of WHIRL's core values. WHIRL will partner with leading non-profit organizations to give them white glove access to the platform. These organizations will pay no campaign listing fees and have their campaigns featured in a special "charity" slots. WHIRL members who donate to these campaigns will also receive a major Karma boost.

LAY THE FOUDATION OF YOUR ABUNDANCE

The idea & concept of basic  income... it is a type of program in which citizens of a country may receive a regular sum of money from a source such as the government... ...pure unconditional minimum income, regardless of their background etc.  People all over the world want this to happen, because its a great way to eliminate poverty......and many countries have talked about this, discussed and debated on the topic. => but it hasn't been implemented because of variety of  reasons, like corruption & politics, inability to manage finances etc.  With the emergence of blockchain & cryptocurrency, we clearly see it happening... ...through a decentralised system/economy which pays out a Basic Income.  It is almost like 'God driven money distribution system'- everyone will be getting a minimum basic income... When the Basic Income Tokens are transferred to a blockchain and becomes a cryptocurrency... (something which no politician, government, group of individuals can do)  Here's the thing Friend, poverty and income is a global problem: ...the idea of basic income is one which the entire world wants to see getting implemented!  crypto is all about people, and their belief in an idea.  the idea of basic income sells itself :) and when this idea hits the market through the Basic  Income cryptocurrency, guess who'll make the most money?  the one who has Basic Income tokens today, which, in  mid-2019 will get converted to a cryptocurrency on a 1:1 basis... the demand will go through the roof! and so will the prices!  here's the good news, TODAY (not sure about tomorrow),you can get 100 tokens/day... you can also get 500 tokens if you refer someone through your referral link.  News that is at once good and bad :  we'll stop the token distribution once we hit 5 Million users.(today;s count is 150,000 @ 23/1/2019) Friend, right now, we've got a lot of activity going on. thousands of people marketing their links, pumping traffic, getting new people on board......this is multiplying like crazy.  missing out on such an opportunity, of 'crypto abundance'  will be extremely painful... so make sure you do ENOUGH, for yourself! :)  - Team Basic Income

TRAKX : DAWN OF THE NEW AGE IN CRYPTOCURRENCY TRADING

For most ends of the world, blockchain, cryptocurrencies and tokenization is the first opportunity that the retail investor has for accessing the object of investment /trading e.g. shares etc directly. Generally, trading is done through a third part called the stockbroker. The stockbroker then is the one who had ever had need to master the technicalities of trading and portfolio management.

For the retail investor, it sufficed to know simply – “Did I make a gain or a loss? “. It is for the same reason that ,  inspite of the reported large wealth that can be made from it, the average retail investor standardly accepted that “ the fear of forex” is the beginning of wisdom”

In the beginning when the number of cryptocurrencies and tokens were few, it was simple enough. There was hardly any need for the complex strategies of the stock trading realm. Simply get yourself a wallet, key into a new instrument at a point appropriate to your capacity to wait – Private pre-sale, Public presale, ICO, Exchange and watch the market for a good time to sell.

As the number of instruments ballooned into the thousands and not just the number of of exchanges but also their variety increased, the old strategies of the stock broking world started getting attractive again.

The uninformed retail trader found out that luck or hope no more sufficed; deeper knowledge of strategies were needed to avoid devastating losses and maximize gains.He started hearing of terms like volatility, hedging, investment basket, FTE, CTI, Leveraged basket, Asset Under Management etc,. He became confused.

One of the main virtues of the Trakx project therefore is what its whitepaper says on p. 6 “ to make investing a seamless and straightforward experience”.

To fully comprehend the import of this help, one needs to recollect that the estimated potential worth of the market is $3,000bn. Imagine yourself the uninformed retail trader , trading without mastery of the sophisticated strategies and making consistent losses.  It is like being thirsty in the abundance of water. Then suddenly someone shows you how to access not just any water but drinkable one.That is how I rate the help that Trakx offers.


 Trakx shows all the signs of being well thought out and being in the hands of competent and sincere persons.

 Some of the signs are :

1.       The decision to make the project a one stop shop for trackers. Trakx plans to provide CTIs for all kinds of strategies, thereby removing from the crypto trader any need to register at many exchanges.

2.       The choice of passive over active portfolio strategies. Passive strategies tend to outperform active strategies on an historical basis and therefore can provide better returns based on cost saving alone.

3.        Use of cold wallet storage. The frequency of hacking and the status of the targeted victims is sometimes reminiscent of the going down of The Titan and makes one shudder . The use of a mix of cold wallets and on-site storage is definitely s sensible choice.

4.       24/7 trading time. This is one of the benefits of passive management. It reduces the cost of operations and ensures that all persons from all time zones of the world can participate in the project without any loss of convenience.

5.       Transparency. Doing business with people you do not know or see is an essential trait of on-line business and the risk is higher when you are not just doing a one-off transaction but actually handing over your investment asset on a medium to long term basis.

Trakx mitigates this through three significant provisions

a.       Auditing by a Big4 auditing firm

b.      Periodical publishing of key indices like holding  and

c.       Giving the user the ability to track what investments their CTIs hold, the relative weighting in the structure and whether or not the CTI has changed in position in any particular investment

From my interaction with other potential users of Trakx, the provision for Inverse CTIs and Leveraged Inverse CTIs seem to give the project a more than ordinary attention. This is not surprising. After all,  one of the main reasons for trading through a more informed third party is to hedge against possible losses. 

I have heard the following  portion of the Whitepaper quoted  again and again. 

“ Inverse CTIs move in the opposite direction of the underlying asset. For illustration purposes, if Bitcoin declines by 10% on a given day, the Inverse Bitcoin CTI will gain approximately 10% on the same day”

Trakx is exciting. Trakx is the dawn of the new age in cryptocurrency trading.

It probably would still be in place to advise every potential user that while Trakx is sure to be a good hedge, there are still choices to be made and he, the user , looses nothing from acquiring some more knowledge about how Trakx particularly and the entire investment environment operates.

SPHEROID UNIVERSE: YOUR CHANCE TO ACQUIRE A PORTION OF AN IMMENSE NEW ADVERSTISING MARKET

Billboards are the least avoidable channels of advertisement. They are located in places that we can neither avoid nor fail to look; more precisely stated, they are located in places we like to visit or look.

Has it ever occurred to you that some people own and make money from these billboards?

Imagine for a second that all billboards located across the world are documented in a single location and that these billboards are being offered for sale. Imagine further that you could purchase any billboard anywhere in the world provided only that nobody else bought it before you. The terms of sale are clear; once you purchase a billboard, you own it for life, yours to sell, use or hire out. Would you or would you not gladly pay for and own those billboards which you consider to be strategic e.g. the ones on Trafalgar square, at the Kremlin, on Eiffel Tower etc.

Now suppose the offer is made even more  juicy by a promotional period in which you can get a grant to purchase some of these billboards? I think I know your answer because it cannot be different from my own and I do know that I will jump at such an opportunity.

Well, a situation very similar to the one described above is here and there is indeed a  promo window in place so it can be yours for FREE( a version of what is known in the industry as airdrop or bounties) It goes by the name SPHEROID UNIVERSE ;

Spheroid Universe is the equivalent of  billboards in the realm of Augmented Reality. Now, for those who are new to the world of augmented reality and the like, it is a new technology by which a person can be transported into a new environment and impacted with a new experience  not through actual travel but merely by putting on a spectacle like gadget. Augmented reality (AR) is the superimposition of layers upon existing reality as the result of which the existing reality acquires new capacities.

This technology has been around with us for quite some time, being researched, developed and deployed by the technology giants like Google, Apple, Samsung, Facebook etc.

Assessed in accordance with the Hype Cycle model developed by Gartner this technology has already passed the hype stage and is ready for more widespread usage and investment. 

Digi- Capital, the largest market research company in the industry estimates that “in the next five years AR Apps will be installed on 3.5 billion devices with market revenue totaling $90 billion. Already, according to The State of Mobile Flurry Analytics Blog  https//flurrymobiletumblr/post/155761509355, more and more persons around the world are spending increasingly more time in virtual worlds  for both leisure and work .This has so far been predominantly in 2D interfaces such as the web and mobile phones. But a transversable 3D world (which Spheroid Universe represents) adds an immersive component as well as adjacency to other contents, enabling physical clusters of communities. 

As said before, spheroid universe spaces are the “bill boards” of the augmented reality universe. Advertisers can use the spheroid universe as sales channel for their products and services or the goods and services of the brand they represent . They develop and implement their advertising strategy within the Spheroid Universe. Depending on the strategy and script complexity of audience interaction, advertisers implement them using platform capability or turn to Developers for the creation of new types of AR publication. 

Spheroid universe is an immense new advertising market. Its content is not limited by physical properties. For example a single space can simultaneously contain the ads of an unlimited number of Advertisers, each advert rendered only when the User expresses interest in something that can be offered by the Advertiser. 

Within its allotted segment of the space, an Advertiser can inhabit its universe with characters who will be able to escort people to the storefront while informing them about new products Or these characters can transform into a store themselves, display the product that a person is interested in, tell him or her about it and take the order.

Advertising (along with games) is one of the two monetization factors of the spheroid universe platform. Platform feature allows space owners to open their spaces up to direct advertisers and advertising agencies from all over the world; also to find the most lucrative bids from advertisers and automatically conclude on preliminarily mutually acceptable terms.

With the spheroiduniverse, the main share of advertising profits is received by Space Owners rather than IT corporations. The purchase of Space entails, first and foremost, the acquisition of rights to obtain revenue from advertising within the purchased spaces and acquisition of rights to control and the terms of Advertisers AR publication.

AR publication tariffs are determined for each space by its owner. The main revenue from advertising campaigners is received by the owner of the space where the communication with the User is taking place. All that the  platform receives is a commission from the Advertiser’s payment to the Space Owner.

Bill Gates said “The main thing is to know where the world is heading and be there before them”. As made clear in the Spheroid Universe Whitepaper: Market players and Analysts are all in agreement that this technology will take off- the only issue is who will be there to benefit from it. 

If you want to be there, go over now and acquire a portion of this immense new advertising market for yourself.
