There are many Initial Coin Offerings(ICO) on the net these days and some of them, in my opinion, are certainly based on some spurious concepts. CCRB is one such ICO as it proposes to enable their users to 'mine coin' through consumeristic patterns. In other words, one can earn coin simply through making purchases through their marketplace. Consumerism is the ideology of corporations first promoted by Edward Bernays, the nephew of Sigmund Freud in the early 1900s and it was he that applied an emotional element to marketing. It is consumerism that sees 5% of the global human population consuming 25% of global resources and as such is highly untenable and for many forms the basis of the perception of human overpopulation. In other words, consumerism is not good.
The internet has evolved since its beginning many decades ago. Long gone are the days of an internet without advertising and marketing dominating it. They are now everywhere and more often than not to join social media sites or to use a browser essentially means the data that you produce is collected, aggregated and sold to marketing companies for it is data that is the mainstay of marketing who then provide you with adverts based on your recent choices. The means of collecting such data these days has been taken over by what are called 'Artificial Intelligence', a term that I have issues with largely because the software labelled as such, while they are 'learning machines' and are able to process data at incredible speeds, they are not intelligent and if they were truly intelligent, one would have to question the descriptor 'artificial'. But that is just me.
"The future is here now - its just not very evenly distributed." - William Gibson
Upon opening the White Paper for Synapse AI one is greeted with this quote which will likely say different things to different people but to me, it speaks of the many levels of disparity that exists within society today. The future is here now - if you can afford it. What intrigues me about crypto is the advent of the blockchain technology is a revolutionary technology that has the potential to better distribute the future and as such, is incredibly powerful technology. The BLOCKCHAIN REVOLUTION is about the decentralization of power, but the technology is so powerful and in the wrong hands could be used to further empower the centralized power of pyramidal power structures that have been the curse to human society for far too long. This is why central banks have been investigating Blockchain Technology for it could be used to develop a cashless society where they control your wallet. In this video, James Corbett of the Corbett Report explains the Bitcoin Psyop.
Artificial Intelligence or 'machine learning' has been hitting technology circles in big waves and is being used successfully in medical diagnostics, is a part of Apple's 'Siri', Tesla, data collation and analyses are just a few applications for AI The list is literally endless for future potential applications of this technology.
What Synapse AI intends is to make use of what they call 'AI economies' and to connect them together, to create central hub where the individual earns cryptocurrency for sharing their data. Unlike most data mining technologies being used today, the individual does not benefit financially from the sharing of their data. Fakebook and Google both track everything that you do via your computer or your cell phone, collate and aggregate the data and sell it to marketing companies so that they can shape the ads that you see. It is an entirely one-way process with the corporations getting all the benefit while the individual simply gets bombarded with a certain set of ads simply because they visited a particular website or made a particular enquiry.
From their WhitePaper
"...we believe the future of the web will have three tenets: democratization, decentralization and distribution." ~ This sounds like the BLOCKCHAIN REVOLUTION to me.
In this video CEO Dan Gailey explains what SYNAPSE AI is.
Synapse Ai is presently in its ICO which ends March 12, 11:59 PM UTC and they plan to sell 45,000,000 tokens during this stage. They have a $1.500,000.00 soft cap and a $15,000,000.00 hard cap.
Buy Syn Tokens
10+ ETH = 130,000 SYN (~35% Discount)
1+ ETH = 12,000 SYN (25% Discount)
0.5+ ETH = 5,520 SYN (15% Discount)
0.1+ ETH = 1,008 SYN (5% Discount)
With 0.1Eth minimum.
By joining SYNAPSE AI at this time you will receive 50 Syn tokens and they have a referral system that gives you a flat bonus for any referrals you produce as well as a percentage of their purchases. Here is my referal link
Unlike some ICOs, this one has something going for it. It has a vision, doesn't offer outrageous gains and has put effort into explaining itself via its Yellow Paper and has a human face lending itself some credibility unlike other ICOs I have written about recently such as SwiftDemand, another Digital Currency in its pre-ICO stage and one of my criticisms of their offering is the lack of a human face.
