PETLIFE - Veterists and pet owners ecosystem on the blockchain

Yousuf Atik

I am sure that each of us loves some kind of pets. Someone loves dogs, some cats, and someone loves to get some exotic species. But now we are not talking about this, but rather about the fact that surrounding animals are an integral part of our life.

Problems

However, with the increase in their numbers, there are various kinds of troubles and problems. Because of which not only animals suffer, but we too.Because animals are very often carriers of various diseases. However, they can cause not only mild allergies, but also become carriers of much more serious diseases, such as rabies, plague, and fever. In order to avoid this and not to fall under the wave of zoonoses, it is necessary to regularly and in time produce veterinary vaccination and general assistance to an animal that has already become ill with a particular disease.

But how to be if at the current time the veterinary area is rather poorly developed. Indeed, in most cases this is due to the fact that there is a great demand for specialists, but they are sorely lacking. How to be and what to do?! After all, the statistics can not be fooled, and she says that only in Europe alone there are over 240,000 veterinarians who care for almost 160 million domestic animals and 340 million large cattle. I think you should not explain how many times the number of "patients" exceeds the number of specialists themselves.

But that is not all! Due to the low number of specialists in the veterinary sector, the cost of providing veterinary services is also increasing. Just imagine, in Europe alone, the estimate of veterinary practice is over 11 billion euros, and the cost of animal medicine is over 18 billion euros for 2017. This statistic is impressive and makes many experts think about how to regulate this process and how to make the veterinary industry go to a higher level, becoming at the same time more accessible to pet owners and farmers, both physically and financially!

And believe many providers have been working on these issues for several years now, developing various conceptual programs to solve them. We will talk about this decision today.

About the project

The project that caught my attention is called - Petlife.

This project is based on the Blockchain technology and includes some telemedicine marketplace, thanks to which specialists will be able to provide remote veterinary care. Moreover, all this will be available to users in real time and will solve the urgent issue with a shortage of specialized assistance.

Project Goals

The main goal of the project is the universal union of specialists not only from Europe but also from North America. This approach will allow to combine into a single ecosystem a large number of veterinarians who will be divided into more than 30 veterinary specialties. This will include such common areas as: therapy, surgery, oncology, radiation diagnosis and many other specialties needed to provide all the necessary assistance measures.

Such a principle of interaction with pet owners and agricultural farmers will help solve a number of problems and contributes to the timely detection of a disease, identifying its symptoms and confirming its suspicions about a certain disease. Work will consist in a bilateral mode thanks to which the owner will be able by need to send the specialist various medical data (reports) regarding the current state of his animal. This will include various kinds of analyzes, X-ray images and many other things.

Benefits

The most important advantage of Petlife, I consider its work schedule, as the platform intends to work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and 365 days a year. As a result, it will bring the veterinary services market to a new higher level. And due to the fact that the platform is decentralized, transparent and with a high degree of security, the owner can no longer worry about storing medical data about his pet, since all this data will always be stored in the Blockchain database.

At the same time the owner no longer needs to worry about providing timely veterinary care for his beloved pet. Since he no longer has to make an appointment with a doctor and adapt to the work schedule of a specialist. Indeed, in Petlife, the veterinarian will instantly receive your message and even if it is not online, other specialists will receive this message who are ready to help you.

ICO details

As you already understood, if the platform is based on the Blockchain base, then within its framework not only smart contracts will be used, thanks to which all necessary information about consultations, treatment methods, doctor's prescriptions and many other things will be recorded, but also a token due to which will carry out various kinds of transactions. At the same time, within the framework of Petlife, the billing system of payment for services will be available, that is, you have the right of a possible choice to pay your bill through cryptocurrency or via fiat money.

If we talk about the token in more detail, it is called PETL. It is based on the basis of Ethereum (ERC-20), it is also a token utility with a total production volume of 143 million units. Of these, 92 million PETL will be allocated for sale. The initial cost of which will be $ 0.163 per 1 PETL. In total, there will be 4 stages of sales, the start of which began from 29.10 2018 and will last until 29.04.2019.

The distribution of tokens is as follows:

Conclusion

I would like to note not only the high level of preparation of this project, but also the fact that Petlife is an officially registered company and has its own personal identification number. At the same time, she knows her strengths well, has a clear strategy for her development and is well aware of her advantages over current competitors.

I consider such projects very necessary, as the world of domestic animals needs highly efficient assistance not only from their owners, but also from qualified specialists who have the opportunity to provide the necessary veterinary assistance in real time.

However, you should not forget that in my review only a small part of the information about the project was published, the rest is intended for your further independent study. Therefore, if you are not indifferent to the fate of your pets, I suggest you explore this project in more detail. All links to official Petlife resources will be available below.
