Moving cargo from A to B is an inherently complex process involving people, machinery, and a network of transportation hubs working together to keep the flow of freight moving.
About 60% of the world’s cargo is transported inside shipping containers but the process is far from straightforward. Shipping cargo requires supervision, care, and a combination of seaborne & land-based transportation methods to reach its destination. Cross-border issues and regulations cause delays due to logistical problems, language barriers, security threats, and other difficulties. The interaction between elements involved in moving cargo is not optimal by any means, at least in its current form.
Blockshipping is a new ICO that introduces the Global Shared Container Platform (GSCP), a blockchain-based platform to bring together all elements involved in the container shipping industry, such as carriers, ports, and terminals.
The GSCP platform
There are about 27 million metal freight containers being moved around the globe carrying all sorts of cargo. Food, vehicle parts, stuffed toys, and everything and anything in between. Keeping track of all these containers is a mammoth task in itself.
The GSCP platform is the world’s first blockchain-based registry to keep track of all containers, in real time. Blockshipping state that their goal within 3-4 years is to achieve a 60% market coverage with 16 million container units in the GSCP blockchain registry.
According to the website, the GSCP solution will deliver efficiency and savings of about $5.7bn to the global shipping container industry through smart handling and accountability of the containers.
The site mentions that the GSCP solution will be environmentally friendly, as it will help to reduce the global CO2 emission by at least 4.6 million tons yearly.
Blockshipping is the first Nordic ICO to be launched within ICO 2.0 Framework, which is fully compliant with Danish laws.

Competition
Blockshipping’s idea of a shipping container registry is quite novel, so there’s little competition out there. Cargocoin perhaps, and also CargoX are peripheral competitors.
Blockshipping’s focus on a blockchain-based container registry is quite specialized, however, so the company has a good market position from that standpoint.

Introducing to you Volans project — The Best Decentralized Financial and Credit Payment System.
OverviewVolans is a cryptocurrency financial services company, which operates using Blockchain.
The cryptocurrency market is rapidly growing, contributing to the usage of Blockchain technologies in new unknown ways. Our product aims to meet this demand of creativity and introduce revolutionary ideas to the quickly increasing cryptocurrency market. You can learn all the details by reading this document.
The Volans platform enables Users to make instant transactions, including paying bills and making purchases with their cryptocurrency assets.
Market DescriptionIn the modern economy, digital banking has become a necessity as it simplifies and speeds up the exchange publicly accepted units of account, known as money, for goods and services.
However, for the last 8 years one of the leading positions in the economy and finance has been taken by cryptocurrencies. The first and the most popular cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, that plays the role of an absolutely decentralized payment system, which does not depend on intermediaries, such as banks. Also, this payment system doesn’t need any guarantors, that emit circulating medium such as coins or paper money.
Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies allow you to get rid of dozens of inconveniences of using a fiat money such as:
The instant transfer of liquidity is very difficult; the customer must use pretty expensive services such as Western Union. Furthermore, this type of money transfer often needs a client’s personal presence, that makes this method extremely inconvenient;
International wire transfers are made mainly through the international payment system Swift. It is cheaper than the transfers mentioned above, but this type of transaction has processing time up to 3 business days;
The Central Bank has the full and unrestricted right to establish all the parameters of the financial system, including the emission of the additional liquidity; therefore, the residents are exposed to high inflation risks in case of an unpredicted and unexpected cash emission
Problem DescriptionDespite all the advantages of cryptocurrencies compared to fiat money, today cryptocurrencies are mainly used for speculative purposes. That means, that the investors try to earn money on the jumps of cryptocurrency price, but do not use cryptocurrency as a payment item. Therefore, we can observe high market volatility and unpredictable price changes.
During the period from September 2017 to February 2018 the monthly volatility of Bitcoin price was 50% and higher. We consider that to be the main factor, that prevents cryptocurrencies from becoming a totally accepted international payment item. Also, cryptocurrencies are facing legal barriers and bans in many countries.
The Volans team considers this situation to continue in the next 10 years, but the cryptocurrency market capitalization is supposed to increase annually.
These forecasts are confirmed by the world leader in
Consulting and audit Deloitte. According to their research, the cryptocurrency market capitalization will reach 10% of the world GDP by 2022.
The classical banking system is obsolete. It is slow, expensive and extremely inconvenient, especially for international transactions. Furthermore, there are so many intermediaries in the chain. By comparing the main differences of the centralized and decentralized approach, you can see the significant advantages of using cryptocurrencies and the Blockchain technology for developing a financial and credit payment system with advanced contactless payment technologies.
THE PRODUCTAs stated earlier in the oveview, #Volan is a cryptocurrency financial services company, which is based on the Blockchain technology.
All transactions inside the Volans platform are commission-free and instantaneous. Transfer from the module, which implements a cold storage of cryptocurrency assets to debit or credit card Volans occurs through the Blockchain technology. Users pay only a commission fee to miners, who process the transactions.
Moreover, users can save and transfer their assets to other users’ cold wallets without commission and in a few minutes. The recipient can also exchange received asset to any other currency, including fiat money or move it back to a cold storage to ensure the highest level of security and anonymity.
Volans Wallet
Volans Wallet enables users to:
Create several cold wallets with different currencies;
Import other wallets by entering an encrypted private key or directly scanning a private key;
View the current price for the assets in dollar terms;
View the user’s portfolio which displays information about personal funds according to the current exchange rate.
Why Volans conduct the Token Sale
The Volans payment system collects funds for a full-fledged launch of the platform and entering into the existing market. The Volans Company has issued Volans (VOL) investment tokens for this purpose.
· Issuance of VISA / MasterCard virtual cards linked to the system account;
· Instant reloading of a cold wallet by VISA / MasterCard card in any bank in the world;
· Instant transferring of funds from a cold wallet to a VISA / MasterCard card;
· Creation of a public loyalty program for Volans users.
Monetization of the Volans project will be achieved through commission fees from some users` payment transactions such as buying and selling of cryptocurrency assets in exchange of fiat money and transfer of the cryptocurrency assets from the Volans Wallet to the Volans Debit card.
With the steady monetization of the project the instant transactions between Volans debit cards, usage the contactless payment technology, payment by Volans debit and credit cards online, all these transactions will remain for users commission-free.
VOLANS TOKEN SALE
Tokens VOL are equity tokens of the Volans Company. These tokens ensure that all token holders receive a part of company`s profit during the reporting period.
VOL is a token issued by Ethereum platform and supports ERC-20 standard. This standard ensures that the integration of this token with exchanges and other services will not be more difficult than for any other tokens, released on the Ethereum platform. There will be 19 600 000 tokens released during the Token Sale. All unsold tokens will be burned and not be generated again.
Token Distribution
According to the solution, found by the Volans Team, the process of dividend distribution to tokenholders is based on the current tokens distribution between investors at the time of adding the Report block to the Blockchain.
Dividends are paid to tokensholders only at the addresses in the Volans Wallet and can be transferred to any other cold wallet or instantly converted to fiat money via Volans Storage. All tokenholders` dividend payments will be carried out in ETH.
At the moment Volans management is negotiating a permanent legal registration in Estonia because the country’s government is liberal to similar companies and partnership programs with banks are the most convenient. The tax burden in Estonia is 20% and is carried out only with the profits distribution and dividends payment.
The company’s profit after the collection of taxes will be:
According to the smart contract, 25% of the profit after the collection of taxes will be distributed among the tokenholders. Thus, the total dividends will be:
Profit per 1000 tokens:
The details of Volans Token Sale
VOL will not be generated after the end of main stage of public Token Sale or the Hard cap will be reached. If the Soft cap will not be reached during the main stage of public Token Sale, the funds will be returned to the investors. Tokens reserved for founders and team will be blocked for 1 year for a further development of the platform.

Qompass Review
Qompass is an ambitious project with an even more ambitious vision: to revolutionize how the financial markets operate.
What is Qompass?
Qompass is a system that aims to provide users with a new way of accessing financial markets. Qompass comprises of three things: it’s a blockchain platform, it’s a mobile app, and it’s a debit card. It’s the Kinder Surprise of ICOs. The platform will be using Qompass tokens (called QPS), and the mobile app will function as a digital wallet, with which users can load credit onto their cards. The aim of the Qompass is to eliminate corruption on the global financial market by transforming it with blockchain technology.
Who is behind it?
The CEO of Qompass is Emmanuel Lim, who has over three decades of experience in data encryption and cryptography. Educated in Computer Science at Singapore Institute of Technology, his past experience includes working for Standard Chartered Bank as a head of their cybersecurity. Along with CTO Vladimir Okhrimenko and CFO Selena Neskovic, he founded Qompass in Hong Kong last year.
How does it work?
By using a combination of active leverage, artificial intelligence, and neural networks, Qompass aims to create an ecosystem of applications and protocols. In other words, the system will contain a number of services and products that will benefit users interacting with financial markets. As with other kinds of cryptocurrencies, Qompass is completely decentralized and protects the anonymity of its users. One of the added benefits is that the Qompass system will function much faster than current ones like Bitcoin and Ethereum. As a matter of fact, the developers promise that it will be able to process 30,000 transactions every second. One of the ways it will do this is by harnessing artificial intelligence. This will, in turn, lower the cost of usage, which will translate into lower transaction costs for its users. While the platform is built with financial transactions in mind, it is also designed with user customizability in mind.
What are the services and products?
Qompass promises quite a few interesting products and services for its users. The Qompass Trader uses artificial intelligence to analyze movements in the financial markets, and then provide the user with recommendations on what to trade when for maximum profit. The Open API Platform allows for financial institutions around the world to link up with the platform. The Crypto P2P Exchange is a peer-to-peer exchange that will allow users to cash out their QPS earnings through the financial institutions linked to the platform. The Blockchain-Based Financing will allow users to put down their QPS as guarantees on loans in other cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. Finally, the Crypto Payment Cards will be the “debit card” that allows users to access the blockchain.
How much can you invest?
Qompass offers investors packages in three different tiers, that each come with different benefits. The Alpha Package (the smallest one) can be bought for just $1, and gives users the opportunity to double their investment each month, whilst paying a quarter of their earnings back into the platform. For those investing $10,001 or more, the Delta Package will allow for 200% return on investment each month, whilst only requiring 20% of the earnings to be paid in fees. Finally, the Omega Package ($100,001 and more) will give investors up to 300% back on their investment each month, and only requires 15% in performance fees.

Technical Info
Engineering features of the platform The platform is based on the Ethereum ecosystem. Smart Contracts are built with Solidity. The main programming language is Python.
All registered users who make a loan application can independently establish credit conditions: the loan amount and interest rate. The platform allows to automatically search/recommend a counterpart to sign a loan contract. Applications with similar conditions are formed into clusters that operate on the basis of FIFO (first in, first out). Any user of the platform can be both a borrower and a lender. In order to guarantee the declared volume of investments and ensure the speed of funds transactions the lender is required by the platform to open a deposit for the amount of at least 10% of the sum in the loan application. In order to guarantee the assets pledged as security the deposit is transferred to the personal account of the platform user. In case if the crypto asset is not blocked by the current loan agreement, the owner can withdraw it from the platform at any time. Every user can sign any number of loan contracts for a term not exceeding 30 calendar days. The contract can be further prolonged under condition of paying interest and service fees.
Box2table Inc. It is a technology startup, which provides food & beverage companies with comprehensive cloud-based Software as a Service (SaaS) with Point-of-Sale (POS) terminals; an automated inventory management system backed by a protocol intelligence and a decentralized blockchain trading platform between mini and large business owners and manufacturers and distributors of products worldwide.
Box2Table will be a decentralized food market in which restaurants & suppliers interact and conduct their business. The main idea is the possibility of ordering & paying for any product in any country using our Box2Table Dollar cryptocurrency (B2D) currency donation. In this case, new technology as an irreplaceable tool.
Commission commission per transaction is the most popular way to charge a client. Currently the commission may make the goods unprofitable for the buyer. Our platform shows the requirement on which porto is minimal, which will enable us to beat our competitors.
The cash register is a key component based on every retail business. The ability to process transactions effectively is crucial for every new company. If the business has many sales, changing the cash register to the Point-of-Sale (POS) system will save money on money. The POS system is computer software and hardware equipment integrated into the network for tracking & managing sales and inventory. The POS system helps break the poly case for the latest culinary & beverage companies.
The current inventory management platform makes it perfectly possible to determine the amount of goods in inventory. We are solving all the flaws of similar systems contained with AI, Cloud & blockchain technologies.
VISION AND MISSION
The majority of people see cryptocurrency as an investment tool or, in the best scenario, a decentralized instrument for money transfers. Such an approach delayed the masses for utilizing blockchain technology.
We believe that blockchain & crypto-technologies must be used for the sake of simple customers who have never even heard of blockchain and not just as speculation or the sense of fundraising.
Box2Table's mission is to provide entrepreneurs around the world with easier business management, enhanced client and user experience and culinary exclusive goods-ordering facilitation on all platforms.
