RocketICO, a decentralized startup accelerator ecosystem where entrepreneurs, investors, and experts interact through smart contracts has raised close to 1,000 ETH thus far during its token sale, which is around $332K at the current rate. The token sale began on November 15th.
So, what is RocketICO? The platform is an online startup accelerator based on the principles of Decentralized Autonomous Organizations. Its ER20 token, symbol ROCK: is limited to 25 million, with funds raised during the token sale to be used for platform development, community building and maintenance of activities of the project, more details of which can be found in the Rocket ICO white paper.
This month, the team is completing a legal review of the utility status of Rocket coins and other legal matters related to Rocket ICO.
It was also announced earlier this month, that Rocket ICO will partner with Bancor to help add liquidity to new project tokens which are launched. Benefiting investors, The Bancor Protocol provides a powerful liquidity solution for all such tokens which will be immediately and continuously convertible through the network following their distribution.
Growing Market of ICO
The Rocket ICO team states that even with the token sale market showing its effectiveness and rising, still today, there are many scam projects and incompetent teams coming to it. There is a lack of professional expertise in the market. Rocket ICO looks to help solve this problem by creating a decentralized acceleration platform: which is Rocket ICO.
Platform and Financial Tools
After receiving funding, project teams start to work together directly on the platform, using convenient tools as smart contract design, white paper and landing page builders, and designing systems of interactions inside the platform and between teams. As a platform currency, Rocket coins (ROCK) provide compensation to each project participant in accordance with their contribution. Through this, industry experts can monetize their knowledge, efforts, or increase their investments. Through the vibrancy and the development of the platform, the Rocket ICO team believes Rocket coin will become a hot commodity.
