With this taking care of, any business will be able to get new customers and also certain of retaining current ones with continous louyalty rewards. The data industry today is both complicated and highly fragmented offering a confusing number of choices to businesses desperately in need of this critical information. The existing data marketing ecosystem of data / list owners, managers and brokers is ineffcient and often ineffective costing businesses unnecessary time and money. A Blockchain project DataBlockChain.io in association with Media Direct, Inc. aims to democratize big data and level the data playing field by providing the most comprehensive marketing data solution to all businesses and individuals. DataBlockChain.io will provide a robust interface between the business or individual and the data sources. The backend systems will ensure full confidence in data quality for the end user as well as transactional finality for the data providers.

Project Objectives

To empower Data Source Providers to provide access to their data and monetize it To provide full transparency, traceability, and auditability to the data providers To build confidence between the end user and data sources To give Businesses and Consumers quality verified data To give End Users a simplified easy-to-use interface with a quick payment system

DataBlockChain Use Cases

Below are some of the platform use cases: Data for Digital/Online Marketing Data for Analytical Modeling Data for Media Buying Data for Direct Marketing Data for CRM/Customer Retention Data for Customer Acquisition

Platform Technologies

SMART INDEXING ENGINE- DataBlockChain.io utilizes an open source Smart Indexing Engine (SIE) to index all data sources and assign confidence scores on the sources. The SIE constantly checks and reevaluates the sources updating the scores. The SIE uses predictive analytics to create an appropriate score. The AI in the SIE quantifies each of the discrete values to build an evolving quantitative analysis. Through sample population validation, a qualitative component is built to accompany the quantitative analysis. The SIE periodically runs performance evaluations and uses past performance modifiers to learn and adjust the score. BLOCKCHAIN INTEGRATION- DataBlockChain.io utilizes the Ethereum Blockchain and Smart Contracts for all transactions and payments. The Ethereum Blockchain empowers DataBlockChain.io to make complex payment contracts to diverse data sources. DataBlockChain.io supports Smart Contracts for transactions, payments and auditing. It allows existing data sources to have full faith in the transactions and payments. Transactional history includes data sources used, records obtained from each source, and payments made to these data sources. Every Transaction can be Audited. The Blockchain protocol keeps these transactions transparent, immutable, and verifiable. DBCWALLET- DBCWallet is a browser extension that allows the user to store DBCCoins and use them to purchase services on DataBlockChain.io with a few clicks. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmWVy8eKA2ugMvw3tY8D56e3CXLdUiXd1AA4w8AtQoxu6G/image.png)

Data Assets

DataBlockChain.io has already obtained over one billion records on over 300 million consumers and sixteen million businesses. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhR3UPCKFjrYC2rjiMawppo1HnvSy6PxKuCqj2mu5ruj/image.png)

Token Mechanism

DBCCoin is an ERC-20 Token (with ERC-677 functionality) that is implemented on the Ethereum blockchain. DataBlockChain.io utilizes Smart Contracts written in Solidity for transactions, auditing and payments. The DBCCoin tokens will be used for transactions on DataBlockChain.io and be used to remunerate Data Providers. ![](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmeSZhqCLAZGukkaR6vSECQ6mFqRSTYHoUujAEpnhVVexi/image.png)
