Following on the heels of the success of @steemhunt with the IEO on IDCM, another application is following suit.
@dlike is the second Steem based DApp to enter into the IEO market. They will also use the Korean exchange IDCM to host it.
The token sale will take place April 8th through the 14th. There are $45K in bonus tokens available for top buyers who get in early.
Dlike is a DApp that is following the proven model of Reddit and Pinterest. In an effort to become a news and information source, it is rewarding users for posting links to informative articles. Reddit is worth an estimated $3B based upon their different rounds of fundraising and proclaims itself to be "The Front Page of the Internet".
Pinterest took it a step further by declaring itself a visual search engine whereby users post different links and pics, all tagged in way to provide valuable and fun information to people.
The advantage that Dlike has over these two is in the rewarding of users. In Reddit and Pinterest, those centralized entities receive value from the users without paying them. Dlike rewards the users by through upvotes. This results in a payout of both Dlike and STEEM tokens.
Dlike is a very simple platform to use. Anyone who can post a link on Reddit or any other site can utilize Dlike immediately. The learning curve is almost zero which makes it attractive to mainstream users who are accustomed to the centralized applications. The fact that the app is located on a decentralized blockchain has little importance on the use of the platform.
By having the IEO on IDCM Korea, Dlike is going to be a token that has market value. This should enhance the appeal of it. Many newer people to the world of cryptocurrency have a difficult time understanding where the value comes from. Having a token that is traded on an open market shows people what the value is of it and provides an opportunity to truly monetize the user activity.
IDCM Korea put out an announcement earlier today to notifying everyone of the upcoming IEO.
