Blockchain is known for its ability to scale, decentralize, secure, and tokenize modern enterprise of any kind. It could be personal data trading or financial payment, Blockchain can be used to power that effect timely.
One other area in which blockchain could be deployed is its use in creating smart contracts or values, which could change our workplaces. Today, I want to review a new blockchain project created to usher in what is called the "future of work".
The Blackbox Operating System (BBOS)
Blackbox OS is a new platform designed specifically to manage next-generation work, globally. According to the Whitepaper, it is configured with advanced operating systems for organizing modern businesses efficiently. With this, they are talking of organizations run on Smart Contracts, Artificial Intelligence, Big Data, Machine Learning, Cloud Services, etc. BBOS is meant to provide solutions in these aspects of enterprise.
Further, the system promises to revolutionize the work environment in areas like:
Governance
Reward
Identity or Value
Management
Security
To me, the project looks exciting, but can the team of developers deliver? Do they have the experience to handle such a project?
Founding Team, and Business Supporters
As seen on the BBOS website, the team includes 60plus PhD holders, former business executives, tech entrepreneurs, technologies, all with diverse background and expertise.
Team:
- Jason J Sosa- Founder & CEO

Tom is also a capable hands with over 24 years stint in business management. He earned his PhD at Oxford and CERN.
There are other members of the team and advisors listed on the website too numerous to be mentioned here. While some are blockchain scientists, the rest are either business or marketing gurus.
Supporters:
The website also listed up to 10 business supporters who are partners on the project. Notable names are:
- Dracaena
- TUG
- SpinDance

- NOMOS LEGAL
This project and its founding team look formidable enough. Let's check their roadmap and token model before passing a verdict.
Roadmap
As stated by the CEO, Blackbox pre-sale will end on the 27th of Sept., 2018. A total of $10m is expected be raised through the pre-sale. The Public sale is bound to take off in Jan.2018, while the main Blackbox network will go live by February 2019.
Token Model
The BBOS token is the unit of exchange on the Blackbox platform. Participants will use it to create transactions both as active and passive works.
Ticker: BBOS
Token type: ERC20
ICO Token Price: 1 BBOS = 0.16 USD
Total Tokens: 1,000,000,000

Summary
From the foregoing, it can be concluded that blackbox is a trendsetting platform with great potentials. The key strengths of the project include:
Formidable Founding Team
Limited Competitors
Notable Business Contributors
Detailed Revenue Sharing Arrangement
Realistic Expectations + Well-defined timelines
On the other hand, weaknesses observed are:
- No attempt was made in the Blackbox White paper to compare it with similar other projects
In conclusion, I believe that Blackbox could be a huge success, if the developers can tidy up loose ends and deliver on promises.
