There is one interesting thing about investors. When did they invested in Endor? Because on every stage of ICO maximum contribution is 50 ETH. We don’t think, that big investment companies will pay attention to the project with such a small amount of maximum investments. Let’s think about it, because it seems that they had to invest in 2014-2015, then ENDOR was founded. And now, then Endor is making ICO – it seems like loss of funds, that they are invested. So, there is no clearness in their further actions.

Value and functions:

EDR token holders will be able to use a growing catalogue of refreshed accurate predictions, provided by Endor. Also they will be able to request their own researches using EDR.

Why do they need blockchain?

For Enabling an ecosystem that provides accurate and affordable predictions. When utilizing predictive analytics in large companies, the data is centralized, predictive questions are customized, and processed by internal PhD data scientists. Endor protocol utilizes blockchain to enable an ecosystem that will share predictive resources across users. Using shared data, shared predictive engines, and repetitive predictive questions across users enables high quality predictions at affordable cost.

Why you should invest?

Ready-to-use product, which has been tested by corporations, such as Coca-Cola

Strong team – world leading experts in big data research

Approved partnership with big companies

A lot of publications in popular, big and respectful media

Positive feedback from clients, who already tested the product

Why you shouldn't invest?

Bad token economy. There are only 20% of total supply for ICO

Tokens are expansive for their amount

Low-medium skill of blockchain developers, despite the fact that they are not core in the project

The result:

Considering background of the project (partners, publications, clients, team), it is worth to invest. But we have to keep in mind bad token economy, even if most of team, advisors and partner’s tokens are locked up. What is confusing? In our opinion, weak blockchain developers, except Mihaela Ulieru. But product developers definitely deserve to be respected. In our opinion, we will see a big pump right after ICO, but after that we are expecting long downtrend, which will depend from token circulation – product users will have to hold it or spend for Endor services.
