Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
OFFICIAL INFORMATION 4
INS Ecosystem is creating a new form of interaction between manufacturers and customers, bypassing the existing
paradigm and eliminating intermediaries such as retailers.
The INS Ecosystem team plans for the project to become the first global decentralized platform where customers can
buy goods directly from manufacturers at low and transparent prices.The INS token is to incorporate a customer loyalty
program as a means of encouraging users to buy and hold the token.The INS Ecosystem marketplace directly connects
manufacturers to customers of foodstuffs, and aims to implement various smart contracts to facilitate trade operations.
The project is supported by major partners and has a strong advisory board. The company has signed memorandums of
cooperation with major FMCG manufacturers. Nevertheless, there is no description of technical and legal issues, or a
detailed financial plan. The team consists of retail trade professionals, with extensive experience, but there is a lack of
blockchain technology experts.

Project Concept
Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
10INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept
Does the problem the project plans to solve really exist?
The authors of the project believe that retailers do not have a positive influence on manufacturers and significantly increase the cost
of goods for buyers. In the food market, the "manufacturer-retailer-customer" marketing model is currently well-established and
generally accepted. Retailers occupy a position as middlemen: connecting manufacturers and customers, they provide a stable
sales volume and uninterrupted supply of goods to end-users. Occupying a stable position in this model, retailers provide the bulk of
sales. According to the project founders, under these conditions, retailers’ position becomes a sort of "monopoly". Retailers can
significantly affect production volumes and the cost of goods. Also, retailer marketing campaigns have a low efficiency factor due to
their wide coverage and impersonal approach.
Eliminating retailers from this segment is not an easy task, as they are an integral part of a well-established and continuously
operating mechanism.

Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept
The modern FMCG market is of colossal dimensions. Actively developing, by the end of the 20th century, it created a
well-established model for three participants: manufacturers, retailers and customers. Manufacturers and customers are the
extreme points of the interaction. Retailers in the current market model have the task of bringing the product from the manufacturer
to the customer. Located in the middle of this chain of interaction, retailers not only service the manufacturer and the customer, but
also dominate the market due to their monopoly position, dictating what gets produced and at what price they will buy the goods for
further sale based on their own vision of the benefits, as well as the goods and prices offered to end-users.
Retailers dominate the FMCG market. Retail chains take a high share of revenues and have a huge impact on manufacturers and
on consumers. Retailers often dictate what products will be produced, and how they will be processed, packaged and evaluated.
For example, in the UK, only four large retailers affect 7,000 manufacturers and sell products to 25 million households. This
example demonstrates the strong market dependence on retailers.
INS Ecosystem is introducing a decentralized ecosystem that aims to allow customers to decrease costs by 30% of foodstuffs,
allowing them to buy directly from manufacturers. Direct interaction between customers and manufacturers should lead to a
personalized and transparent approach to the acquisition of goods at lower prices. Consumers are to be able to decide which
products they need themselves.
11
Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept
INS Ecosystem is also to give consumers unhindered access to products from local manufacturers, including farmers whose
products are not represented in large retail chains, thus, allowing manufacturers to sell their products directly to customers.
Inefficient marketing campaigns are also a big and costly problem. Manufacturers of groceries spend up to 17% of their revenues
on marketing. Promotions are a growing category of costs aimed at wholesale and retail distribution, rather than consumers.
Manufacturers spend over $500 billion on trade marketing annually, and, according to some reports, 66% of these costs do not
generate profits and lead to higher prices for the final consumer.
INS aims to change advertising campaigns to a more personalized, direct marketing approach (programs will work on smart
contracts) that it believes will lead to lower prices for goods and effective direct interaction between manufacturers and customers.
Theoretically, the removal of retailers from the system while maintaining or even increasing the effectiveness of their functions
should lead to benefits for manufacturers and buyers. INS Ecosystem is planning to implement this type of alternative system, and
to show its potential and viability. With successful results, the system should prove quite promising.
12
Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept 13
Is the company’s product unique?
Decentralization, and, with it, a direct working channel between manufacturers and customers, appears significant.
Manufacturers get increased control over the prices of products; marketing directly aimed at customers; quick and direct
feedback from customers; and higher prices for their products. At the same time, manufacturers may risk retailers
traditional tasks not being performed properly. Buyers benefit from getting lower total costs for products and an
expanded choice of products.

In the whitepaper the team provided a
comparison of INS Ecosystem in the US with
retail stores, online food retailers and the
Amazon Fresh and Instacart projects.
As the company plans to directly connect
buyers with manufacturers, INS can provide
minimum and maximum prices, and relevant
promotions.
It is worth noting that the online food market
is already occupied by major players such as
Amazon Fresh, PeaPod, and FreshDirect,
which are actively developing and increasing
their competitive advantages, exploring and
developing new opportunities in logistics and
distribution, applying and continuing to
introduce new algorithms for analyzing the
collection and processing of big data,
introducing new ways of conducting
marketing campaigns, and increasing focus
on customer feedback.
Business Model
Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
INS Ecosystem sets itself the task of decentralizing the foodstuffs market, whereby key participants (manufacturers and end-users) interact
directly. Nevertheless, tasks previously performed by retailers (the continuous purchase and distribution of goods) must be accomplished
somehow.
The blockchain is able to continuously work with a large database of information on all aspects of interaction: production, logistics, supply,
marketing, transactions, processing, and managing the process.
Smart contracts are designed to facilitate transaction support by creating direct interaction between entities and providing detailed support for
transactions. Smart contracts are to provide trust between manufacturers and customers, as they are to contain the agreed terms ahead of the
transactions. There is to be no need for controlling agencies to accompany transactions. Transactions are to be traceable, transparent and
irreversible.
Is it possible to achieve such goals without using blockchain? Definitely, but this would require significant additional resources.

The procedure for interaction between the participants of the platform is described as follows:
Manufacturers (cooperation memorandums have been signed with Unilever, Mars, Valio, and Reckitt Benckiser) place common
offers on a large database using a decentralized network. Additionally, manufacturers can distribute their own proposals more
purposefully using a personalized approach, such as weekly / daily offers and proposals based on statistics.
In the INS ecosystem, manufacturers are to be able to apply any logic in a smart contract to create individual rewards programs
according to customer needs, varying parameters such as the type of reward, validity periods, lists of products on which the reward
can be spent, the amount, etc. Rewards are to be coded in smart contracts that accept them from manufacturers and distribute
them to buyers, if they provide proof of the right to receive concrete rewards.

Customers purchase products by specifying acquisition parameters using various filters.
Payments are in:
● USD (above $10,000, a 3% commission is taken for all fiat transfers);
● BTC, ETH, LTC, DASH, ETC (a cryptocurrency commission such as Ethereum gas is added, which is
substantially lower than the fiat commission);
● INS tokens (commision free). Depending on the method of payment, consumers are to be eligible for various
additional incentives.
Delivery of purchased products is carried out by various logistics tools, using large courier companies or independent
couriers through various applications. It is also worth noting that the team has not indicated the cost of building the
material and technical infrastructure, such as warehouses, logistics, distribution centers, and vehicles.

The authors of the project identified preliminary terms and stages of development, but the whitepaper indicates that the timing may
change.
The whitepaper describes the stages of platform implementation (issuance of tokens, and publication of smart contracts), release of
the user interface, geographical expansion and INS Ecosystem development.
Additionally, the INS team provided information on three scenarios for the development of the INS Ecosystem platform through
2021, with indicative income dynamics (in absolute and relative terms), forecasts for growth of the token price, a description of the
competitive position of INS on the US market, and a token payment schedule.

Following the ICO, each participant is to receive tokens in the ERC20 standard, which are compatible with the INS platform and
created on the Ethereum blockchain system. According to the roadmap, funds raised during the ICO are to be used to develop and
implement the decentralized INS Ecosystem platform. The launch of the platform is planned for the first quarter of 2018. When the
INS team introduces its own blockchain or chooses the final blockchain from the appropriate alternatives, a new INS token is to be
issued, to which the released tokens can be exchanged at a rate of 1 to 1.
The total number of tokens released is to depend on the number of tokens purchased during the ICO.
Soft Cap ⎼ 20,000 ETH. The whitepaper states that funds allocated for the purchase of tokens will be returned, if the minimum goal
is not met.
Target Hard Cap ⎼ 60,000 ETH. Upon reaching the hard cap, the ICO is to be immediately halted.
After a more detailed calculation, based on consultations with manufacturers, delivery operators and FMCG experts, the team
adjusted target and soft and hard caps, significantly lowering them.
The team is to retain 15% of all issued tokens, with 60% going to investors, and 5% allocated for advisers. Of the total issuance
20% is to be held in a reserve fund that is to be used to encourage new customers to join the ecosystem. In the Telegram channel
for the project, the team stated that they are in negotiations with several exchanges, and tokens are planned to be immediately
transferred to buyers after the successful ICO. Additionally, INS tokens can be freely exchanged and withdrawn from accounts.

The launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2018. Then tokens are to be used as payment within the system.
The project website and whitepaper say that the token is to be used as a means of payment within the platform, as well as carry a
promotional function. The whitepaper also discusses the benefits of using the token inside the platform. According to the terms, the
token is not positioned as a security.
Terms for the sale of tokens, with various incentives, are elaborated in the whitepaper. The biggest discount is given when buying
on the first day for a sum of up to 100 ETH, while after the third week of the ICO no more discounts are provided.

There is no mention of a real asset base that would serve as a "safety cushion" for investors. The whitepaper states
"The INS tokens may have no value and there is no guarantee or representation of liquidity for the INS tokens.
Company Parties are not and shall not be responsible for or liable for the market value of the INS tokens, the
transferability and/or liquidity of the INS tokens and/or the availability of any market for the INS tokens through third
parties or otherwise."
Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO
According to the whitepaper, the INS token is to be the only means of settlement for the processing of all types of rewards and one means of
payment in the INS ecosystem.
The authors of the project envisage referral programs, no commissions when using INS tokens system, and other rewards for users of the
platform, in addition to reducing the cost of goods for customers.
Half of the planned funds to be raised are to go to further development and study of the ecosystem, which is positive for the long-term prospects
of the company. The maximum discount for the first buyers of tokens is small at 25%, which means speculative activity is unlikely to be
widespread at the beginning of the project, which could possibly lead to a sharp devaluation of the token.
INS also plans to organize the use of INS tokens as a means of payment for partner services, but at the moment there is no detailed public plan.

The team consists of recognized professionals in their fields. The founders of the project are the creators of Instamart, a successful

million rubles, with a net profit of 1.8 million rubles. The amount of investment attracted to Instamart is over 100 million rubles.
Due to the shortage of qualified personnel in the labor market, competition for skilled professionals is high, which has a significant
impact on the ability to retain a top management team and attract additional qualified management personnel, which could have a
negative effect on the INS platform.

  • 4. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO OFFICIAL INFORMATION 4 INS Ecosystem is creating a new form of interaction between manufacturers and customers, bypassing the existing paradigm and eliminating intermediaries such as retailers. The INS Ecosystem team plans for the project to become the first global decentralized platform where customers can buy goods directly from manufacturers at low and transparent prices.The INS token is to incorporate a customer loyalty program as a means of encouraging users to buy and hold the token.The INS Ecosystem marketplace directly connects manufacturers to customers of foodstuffs, and aims to implement various smart contracts to facilitate trade operations. The project is supported by major partners and has a strong advisory board. The company has signed memorandums of cooperation with major FMCG manufacturers. Nevertheless, there is no description of technical and legal issues, or a detailed financial plan. The team consists of retail trade professionals, with extensive experience, but there is a lack of blockchain technology experts.
  • 5. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO 5INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Conclusion Considerable risk exposure, high sensitivity to market conditions ● The founders of INS Ecosystem have experience in the field of product delivery. The project participants are active on various thematic forums, which has made the project known in professional circles. ● INS Ecosystem has signed cooperation memorandums with major manufacturers ● The team has not identified a real-life asset base that would protect investors from token devaluation. ● The legal side of the company had limited transparency at the time of the drafting of this report. ● A specific timeframe for the stages of project development is not present in the roadmap. ● The team shared some additional information in the course of our communications, although we believe the information should be available to all project participants.
  • 6.

  • 10. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO 10INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept Does the problem the project plans to solve really exist? The authors of the project believe that retailers do not have a positive influence on manufacturers and significantly increase the cost of goods for buyers. In the food market, the "manufacturer-retailer-customer" marketing model is currently well-established and generally accepted. Retailers occupy a position as middlemen: connecting manufacturers and customers, they provide a stable sales volume and uninterrupted supply of goods to end-users. Occupying a stable position in this model, retailers provide the bulk of sales. According to the project founders, under these conditions, retailers’ position becomes a sort of "monopoly". Retailers can significantly affect production volumes and the cost of goods. Also, retailer marketing campaigns have a low efficiency factor due to their wide coverage and impersonal approach. Eliminating retailers from this segment is not an easy task, as they are an integral part of a well-established and continuously operating mechanism. 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Strongly Agree Agree Slightly Agree Neutral Slightly DIsagree Disagree Strongly Agree
  • 11. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept The modern FMCG market is of colossal dimensions. Actively developing, by the end of the 20th century, it created a well-established model for three participants: manufacturers, retailers and customers. Manufacturers and customers are the extreme points of the interaction. Retailers in the current market model have the task of bringing the product from the manufacturer to the customer. Located in the middle of this chain of interaction, retailers not only service the manufacturer and the customer, but also dominate the market due to their monopoly position, dictating what gets produced and at what price they will buy the goods for further sale based on their own vision of the benefits, as well as the goods and prices offered to end-users. Retailers dominate the FMCG market. Retail chains take a high share of revenues and have a huge impact on manufacturers and on consumers. Retailers often dictate what products will be produced, and how they will be processed, packaged and evaluated. For example, in the UK, only four large retailers affect 7,000 manufacturers and sell products to 25 million households. This example demonstrates the strong market dependence on retailers. INS Ecosystem is introducing a decentralized ecosystem that aims to allow customers to decrease costs by 30% of foodstuffs, allowing them to buy directly from manufacturers. Direct interaction between customers and manufacturers should lead to a personalized and transparent approach to the acquisition of goods at lower prices. Consumers are to be able to decide which products they need themselves. 11
  • 12. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept INS Ecosystem is also to give consumers unhindered access to products from local manufacturers, including farmers whose products are not represented in large retail chains, thus, allowing manufacturers to sell their products directly to customers. Inefficient marketing campaigns are also a big and costly problem. Manufacturers of groceries spend up to 17% of their revenues on marketing. Promotions are a growing category of costs aimed at wholesale and retail distribution, rather than consumers. Manufacturers spend over $500 billion on trade marketing annually, and, according to some reports, 66% of these costs do not generate profits and lead to higher prices for the final consumer. INS aims to change advertising campaigns to a more personalized, direct marketing approach (programs will work on smart contracts) that it believes will lead to lower prices for goods and effective direct interaction between manufacturers and customers. Theoretically, the removal of retailers from the system while maintaining or even increasing the effectiveness of their functions should lead to benefits for manufacturers and buyers. INS Ecosystem is planning to implement this type of alternative system, and to show its potential and viability. With successful results, the system should prove quite promising. 12
  • 13. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept 13 Is the company’s product unique? Decentralization, and, with it, a direct working channel between manufacturers and customers, appears significant. Manufacturers get increased control over the prices of products; marketing directly aimed at customers; quick and direct feedback from customers; and higher prices for their products. At the same time, manufacturers may risk retailers traditional tasks not being performed properly. Buyers benefit from getting lower total costs for products and an expanded choice of products. 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Strongly Agree Agree Slightly Agree Neutral Slightly DIsagree Disagree Strongly Agree
  • 14. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Concept Does the company understand its competition? 14 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Strongly Agree Agree Slightly Agree Neutral Slightly DIsagree Disagree Strongly Agree In the whitepaper the team provided a comparison of INS Ecosystem in the US with retail stores, online food retailers and the Amazon Fresh and Instacart projects. As the company plans to directly connect buyers with manufacturers, INS can provide minimum and maximum prices, and relevant promotions. It is worth noting that the online food market is already occupied by major players such as Amazon Fresh, PeaPod, and FreshDirect, which are actively developing and increasing their competitive advantages, exploring and developing new opportunities in logistics and distribution, applying and continuing to introduce new algorithms for analyzing the collection and processing of big data, introducing new ways of conducting marketing campaigns, and increasing focus on customer feedback.
  • 16. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INS Ecosystem sets itself the task of decentralizing the foodstuffs market, whereby key participants (manufacturers and end-users) interact directly. Nevertheless, tasks previously performed by retailers (the continuous purchase and distribution of goods) must be accomplished somehow. The blockchain is able to continuously work with a large database of information on all aspects of interaction: production, logistics, supply, marketing, transactions, processing, and managing the process. Smart contracts are designed to facilitate transaction support by creating direct interaction between entities and providing detailed support for transactions. Smart contracts are to provide trust between manufacturers and customers, as they are to contain the agreed terms ahead of the transactions. There is to be no need for controlling agencies to accompany transactions. Transactions are to be traceable, transparent and irreversible. Is it possible to achieve such goals without using blockchain? Definitely, but this would require significant additional resources.

  • 17. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO The procedure for interaction between the participants of the platform is described as follows: Manufacturers (cooperation memorandums have been signed with Unilever, Mars, Valio, and Reckitt Benckiser) place common offers on a large database using a decentralized network. Additionally, manufacturers can distribute their own proposals more purposefully using a personalized approach, such as weekly / daily offers and proposals based on statistics. In the INS ecosystem, manufacturers are to be able to apply any logic in a smart contract to create individual rewards programs according to customer needs, varying parameters such as the type of reward, validity periods, lists of products on which the reward can be spent, the amount, etc. Rewards are to be coded in smart contracts that accept them from manufacturers and distribute them to buyers, if they provide proof of the right to receive concrete rewards.

  • 18. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO Customers purchase products by specifying acquisition parameters using various filters. Payments are in: ● USD (above $10,000, a 3% commission is taken for all fiat transfers); ● BTC, ETH, LTC, DASH, ETC (a cryptocurrency commission such as Ethereum gas is added, which is substantially lower than the fiat commission); ● INS tokens (commision free). Depending on the method of payment, consumers are to be eligible for various additional incentives. Delivery of purchased products is carried out by various logistics tools, using large courier companies or independent couriers through various applications. It is also worth noting that the team has not indicated the cost of building the material and technical infrastructure, such as warehouses, logistics, distribution centers, and vehicles.

  • 22. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Tokens Is the issuance of tokens limited? INS tokens are to be issued for the INS Ecosystem platform. The maximum limit of tokens is 50 million, while the exact number depends on the amount of funds deposited. Following the ICO period, no more tokens are to be issued. 22 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Strongly Agree Agree Slightly Agree Neutral Slightly DIsagree Disagree Strongly Agree
  • 23. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Tokens Following the ICO, each participant is to receive tokens in the ERC20 standard, which are compatible with the INS platform and created on the Ethereum blockchain system. According to the roadmap, funds raised during the ICO are to be used to develop and implement the decentralized INS Ecosystem platform. The launch of the platform is planned for the first quarter of 2018. When the INS team introduces its own blockchain or chooses the final blockchain from the appropriate alternatives, a new INS token is to be issued, to which the released tokens can be exchanged at a rate of 1 to 1. The total number of tokens released is to depend on the number of tokens purchased during the ICO. Soft Cap ⎼ 20,000 ETH. The whitepaper states that funds allocated for the purchase of tokens will be returned, if the minimum goal is not met. Target Hard Cap ⎼ 60,000 ETH. Upon reaching the hard cap, the ICO is to be immediately halted. After a more detailed calculation, based on consultations with manufacturers, delivery operators and FMCG experts, the team adjusted target and soft and hard caps, significantly lowering them. The team is to retain 15% of all issued tokens, with 60% going to investors, and 5% allocated for advisers. Of the total issuance 20% is to be held in a reserve fund that is to be used to encourage new customers to join the ecosystem. In the Telegram channel for the project, the team stated that they are in negotiations with several exchanges, and tokens are planned to be immediately transferred to buyers after the successful ICO. Additionally, INS tokens can be freely exchanged and withdrawn from accounts. 23
  • 24. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Tokens The launch is scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2018. Then tokens are to be used as payment within the system. The project website and whitepaper say that the token is to be used as a means of payment within the platform, as well as carry a promotional function. The whitepaper also discusses the benefits of using the token inside the platform. According to the terms, the token is not positioned as a security. Terms for the sale of tokens, with various incentives, are elaborated in the whitepaper. The biggest discount is given when buying on the first day for a sum of up to 100 ETH, while after the third week of the ICO no more discounts are provided. 24
  • 25. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO INVESTMENT EVALUATION | Tokens Is there an asset base that would protect current holders from token devaluation? 25 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 Strongly Agree Agree Slightly Agree Neutral Slightly DIsagree Disagree Strongly Agree There is no mention of a real asset base that would serve as a "safety cushion" for investors. The whitepaper states "The INS tokens may have no value and there is no guarantee or representation of liquidity for the INS tokens. Company Parties are not and shall not be responsible for or liable for the market value of the INS tokens, the transferability and/or liquidity of the INS tokens and/or the availability of any market for the INS tokens through third parties or otherwise."
  • 26. Investment evaluation of INS Ecosystem ICO According to the whitepaper, the INS token is to be the only means of settlement for the processing of all types of rewards and one means of payment in the INS ecosystem. The authors of the project envisage referral programs, no commissions when using INS tokens system, and other rewards for users of the platform, in addition to reducing the cost of goods for customers. Half of the planned funds to be raised are to go to further development and study of the ecosystem, which is positive for the long-term prospects of the company. The maximum discount for the first buyers of tokens is small at 25%, which means speculative activity is unlikely to be widespread at the beginning of the project, which could possibly lead to a sharp devaluation of the token. INS also plans to organize the use of INS tokens as a means of payment for partner services, but at the moment there is no detailed public plan.
