"dock.io is a decentralised data exchange protocol built on blockchain. We’re building an open and connected solution allowing users to truly own their data, and enabling applications to communicate and transfer data. dock.io is not a product or application, but a protocol capable of powering data for thousands of applications and technologies beyond what exist today. dock.io enables seamless connectivity of data across the web, allowing a user to update their data in one application, and instantly push that update to any sources they wish." (Medium)
Main Positives
dock.io already has 3 relatively strong partnerships created - Fund Request, Remote (+2.5M users), SmartRecruiters (+12M users). They have made it clear as well that they will announce more after the crowdsale ends and they will also reserve 30% of the raise funds in order to incentivise partnerships. In the competitive environment of today partnerships are the key to expansion.
In the Whitepaper the possible issues that the protocol could encounter are also specified. Most ICOs avoid the issues and only mention the positives about their offering. This just shows that the team is very transparent and that they are aware on what the weaknesses are and where the focus should be. For eg. one of the hurdles could be Ethereum's scalability issue which could hold back dock.ai if they manage to get many users on board. However, I believe Ethereum will solve their scalability issue by the end of the year.
They have a working Alpha that they claim is growing by around 3K users every day.
This is a protocol built on the Ethereum Blockchain that can potentially link datasets between LinkedIn, Facebook, Udemy etc. This is a huge deal and furthermore DApps should eventually start being built on top of dock.ai.
Main Negatives
The roadmap only runs until the end of 2018. I cannot find a longer-term vision of where the company is planning to be or any expansion plans.
Native token is not necessary for this business model in my opinion. Could work but there is no real advantage to it in my opinion.
59% of the tokens have been sold out during the pre-sale at a 40% discount (50% of the bonus is locked for 4 months).
Team Highlights
Todd Scheuring (Head of Design) - He has extensive relevant experience in web designing and front-end development. Worked for several medium-sized companies in the past. All seem to be startups to a certain extent.
