About BLOCKLANCER
The Blocklancer platform is intended as a means to streamline the process of freelancing and improve the cooperation between the freelancer and the client. It aims to solve issues with current legacy freelancing platforms, such as: refusals of payment for the agreed-on amount of money for a project, fake or undeserved reviews, and the uncontrollable influence and potential for abuse of power by a central authority figure.
Competitors: Fiverr, Freelancer, Upwork, Guru
Uniqueness/Advantages to competition: Creates a platform that streamlines legacy freelance services platforms via blockchain technology.
Product
A beta platform is currently available for testing via the website. Further development is expected after the ICO and a public release is scheduled for Q2 2018 (see Roadmap).
There is appeal to the Blocklancer product, given the large number of freelancers and clients looking for freelance workers throughout the world, and the potential / target user-base will grow along with the adoption of cryptocurrency in the general population. There is currently a very large amount of legacy competition in this space, and blockchain competition will greatly stiffen over time as adoption continues, given the size of the target market.
Competitors: Fiverr, Freelancer, Upwork, Guru
Use of Blockchain
The project’s contribution to blockchain development is mainly the development of a Distributed Autonomous Job Market. There is a disruptive advantage as, in theory, it would enable further streamlining and improvement of the currently centralized, legacy freelance platforms. There is need for a custom token as the platform is an independent autonomous marketplace that will also aim to prevent fake or ‘bot’ reviews.
Whitepaper
Multiple documents are presented on the website: a whitepaper, a yellow paper, and a business plan paper. Each document is very well put together, professional and aesthetic, and provides a good mixture of media and textual explanation where necessary. The whitepaper is a good length at 41-pages, can be read easily, and explains the platform and its vision in detail. The yellow-paper provides a high-level, detailed explanation of the technology behind the platform. The important whitepaper sections include: an Abstract, a view of the Distributed Autonomous Job Market (DAJ), the Market and Industry, the Token, the Token Holder Tribunal, the Platform, the System Architecture, the Roadmap and the Team. The business plan and technology behind Blocklancer are thoroughly and concisely explained.
