BC Startup Wants to Take Down Google
Thrive is a blockchain project that will develop an ad marketplace which rewards data sharing, offers cheaper ad rates due to low fees, and settles the fastest transaction rates in the industry. The THRT token is the means of transacting on the Thrive platform.
Part 1: VRIO Analysis
VRIO analysis gives a crisp and tight snapshot of the odds of success of a project.
I’ll be analyzing whether Thrive genuinely adds value to the overall state of cryptos and whether its value-addition is sustainable and maintainable.
Value: A project is valuable if it allows a better means of exploiting resources.
Thrive’s main source of success could be its value-addition. Thrive provides a new way to exploit ad space; a domain currently ruled by the world’s leading search engines.
By utilizing its own blockchain, Thrive is offering benefits that the current market players cannot offer.
Thrive aims to build an ad marketplace on its own blockchain to offer low fees, fast transaction rates, and seamless rewards for the creators on the web.
Thrive is offering value in the form most valued: money. Advertisers save money and those offering ad space get more money.
Moreover, by making the process of advertising cheaper, Thrive can bring more advertisers into the market, and by making transactions fasters and easier, Thrive can bring more creators to the web.
The company is not just taking a piece of the pie, it’s making the pie bigger.
Rarity: If a project offers something that can be attained without the blockchain, then generating market adoption will be very challenging. The offering needs to be tough to get without the aid of the blockchain.
Thrive is aiming to go in an industry where there are very few players; these is an existing rarity in the supply of ad marketplaces. By merely existing in its target industry, Thrive is a rare business.
Moreover, Thrive is the first of its kind: the platform will be the first blockchain-based ad marketplace that is going to offer low fees and fastest transaction rates.
The crypto market is getting flooded with new tokens on a daily basis.
Coins and tokens are not rare but the service they can be used as a medium for can indeed be rare. Thrive is offering a token that is going to be the medium of transacting on the platform. Moreover, as the tokens are utilized, demand will be greater than supply and this will lead to an organic inflation of the price of the token. The Thrive platform is a rare offering and the THRT token will face rarity due to its design of usage.
Imitation: Imitation is a major threat to any new project and it’s important to analyze whether a project’s key service can easily be reproduced by copy-cats.
The blockchain start-up field faces the common hazard of copy-cats. But Thrive is building its own blockchain and that makes this project a much tougher fruit to target.
Additionally, this blockchain project requires a strong fundamental sense of business mechanisms, especially in the marketing field. A mere action by tech-strong individuals will not be sufficient to imitate Thrive; a collaboration between sound business understanding and tech power will be needed to build a business like this one
External players already sit on a business so large that they cannot risk moving their platforms to a blockchain-based ad marketplace without certainty of success.
Thrive is exploring the waters of the blockchain-based as marketplace and they’ll be a lot of eyes on its performance. Once it’s already established its success, others may follow.
Organization: Any company is essentially a successful effort of a group of individuals. Any crypto project’s success heavily rests on the capability of its team to properly manage and organize all efforts and funds.
Thrive’s team has considerable experience in the target industry and its members are qualified to build the tech necessary to carry out this process.
The challenge will be how well the team remains organized as adoption kicks in and the market begins to desire their product.

Note
As is the case with investments in any security or asset, you should invest in ICOs and tokens only an amount you are willing to lose. Investments in the crypto market are high-risk, high-reward moves and investor due diligence is imperative.
Watch Out
If you intend to invest in the project’s ICO, be sure to utilize the official project website. As disappointing as it may be, scammers are rampant in the crypto market and many try to scam investors through deceptive measures by identity theft of project leaders and phishing measures.
You should only contact official company social media profiles for your informational needs and queries, and you should invest in the ICO directly through the company website.
