Stacktical - Downtime Blockchained
The World has shifted dramatically into the Digital Age with more and more people getting to try it each and every second. Even as you read the first line of the article, about 10 new internet users have cropped up. This pace of growth and development is unprecedented and unheard of in the previous age where physical objects and machinery were money, wealth and power.
The infrastructure for these are not already in place, with many of it being developed as the technology reaches newer hands. There goes a lot of thinking and work into the making of these infrastructure and it is improved as it is being used.
Now these are mostly from the developing countries than developed countries. We know that the infrastructure for these are not in place and this is more so in the case of developing nations. They'd have to create everything from scratch and they are developing nations and even the developed ones find it hard to create a new system that allows for the large scale of users to be able to use it easily.
This means that there is a lot of fixing and maintenance to be done and that means more downtime. This means that a lot of revenue is lost and causes a lot of other problems due to the service being down.
These issues cannot be compensated the same way that we do for anything in the physical world and not so easily using the current infrastructure. It requires for a new platform that is much more scalable and flexible than the current one. It must also be enterprise ready since this is an issue that mainly affects enterprises.
Stacktical Platform
They plan on solving the above mentioned issues by creating a platform that allows for its users to be able to compensate for the losses that occurs due to downtime of any services by using predictive analysis and rewarding those who fix it fast and provide good responses.
This being powered by the Blockchain means that is is decentralised and the power of say lies in the hands of the users and not in the hands of few individual players in the field. It also means that it is more secure, flexible, scalable and enterprise ready than existing methods.
ICO & Team
They plan on powering their platform by introducing the Stacktical (DSLA) Token which is based on Ethereum's ERC-20 Token standard. They plan on holding their Pre-Sale on 1 October and their Main-Sale on 1 November. It requires for you to be Registered, Whitelisted and KYC Verified in order to be able to participate in the ICO.
The Founders have adequate experience in Software Development, Dapps Development and Cloud Development respectively. The advisory board consists of renowned and experienced Programmers, Advisors, Analysts, Investors, Entrepreneurs who also bring along their expertise in fields of Machine Learning, Marketing, Cloud, Business Development, Blockchain, Investments and Finance.
Conclusion
They seem to have a great and unique idea of being able to compensate for the downtime of various services. This means that quick fixing or promising performance is rewarded more and that acts as an incentive to maintain the services properly. It's a win-win for both sides.
However, they seem to be lacking quite the few members in their Team which currently consists of two of the FOunders themselves along with a impressive Advisory board. But as the name implies, the Advisory Board is not exactly the Main part of the Team and the core part of the team is yet to be formed.
This can be taken lightly as they are at a very nascent stage and may include more members on board their project in the coming days. It also remains to be seen if they can deliver on their promise and stay relevant in the coming weeks leading up to the ICO.
