Ziber, a blockchain platform offering inexpensive and secure communication solution over mobile phones has announced an ICO.
A majority of communications across the world happens over mobile phone networks and the internet. Almost everyone these days own a mobile phone, but not every one of these mobile phone users are happy with the prices charged by their respective carriers. Ziber is a revolutionary blockchain-based product that offers mobility and connectivity over decentralized VOIP connections. The platform has gained a name for itself as the “first blockchain mobile operator”.
Ziber makes use of masternodes set up on various servers and VPS around the world to provide VOIP services. The service can be accessed using mobile applications, available for Android and iOS devices. The platform redirects VOIP calls originating from a host of devices to the main blockchain system, connecting the recipient without making use of carrier data/bandwidth. With Ziber, users can enjoy free calls within the same network and city. It also offers subscription packages for long distance calls and on different networks.
Apart from offering free to low-cost telephony service, Ziber also incentivizes the contributors on its network. The masternode owners get a share of the revenues. In order to make low-cost communications, over secure protocol a reality, Ziber has announced an ICO campaign. The crowdsale will go live on July 27, 2017, at 12:00 GMT, allowing investors to purchase Ziber tokens. The platform will be offering 80% of the total 100 million tokens on the crowdsale. The remaining 20% will be split equally between the team and bonus payouts.
The Ziber ICO will go on for ten days, raising a minimum threshold of 1 million GBP. The maximum fundraising goal is set at 10 million GBP. If the ICO fails to reach the minimum threshold, Ziber will return all the funds received from ICO participants.
The funds raised through the ICO will be used to strengthen the infrastructure further, spend on marketing and advertisements and to create legal entities across the world to support a genuinely world-class blockchain based communications solution. More info about the platform and ICO is available in the whitepaper and website respectively.
The London-based company aims to become the “killer” of IP-telephony and services like Skype. To reach that goal, Ziber sees only one clear way forward – a radical reduction in the cost of international calls.
Currently, placing an international call using Skype can cost anywhere from 2 to 4 cents or more, depending on what country you are calling from and to. Another service, Viber, can cost as much as 14 cents or more per call. With Ziber, the average cost of an international phone call will be 1 cent or less.
So how come nobody has heard anything about this company and its technology before now? According to the company’s founders, the entire project was kept under close wraps during the months that were spent on the development. Ziber is a classic start-up with a small budget in comparison with other industry leaders. As such, they couldn’t risk letting information leak out.
The launch of the service has already taken place and the PC version of the product is currently available for download on the company’s website. Users can test-drive Ziber themselves and will be able to place free international calls using the service until the end of the company’s ICO, which begins on July 27, 2017, and will last for ten days.
In addition to the PC version, mobile apps for both Android and iOS devices have been fully developed and tested and will be released at the conclusion of the ICO.
100 million Ziber tokens will be distributed in total, with 80% being sold during the ICO. The remaining 20% will be split evenly, with 10% set aside for the development team and 10% paid out as bonuses to investors. Accepted methods of payment are Bitcoin and Ethereum.
All tokens will be immediately distributed at the end of the ICO and can be traded on any cryptocurrency exchange or used to pay for international calls within the system.
The minimum goal for the ICO is £1 million. If this threshold is not met, all funds will be returned to investors.
