Crowdfinance: The Path to Economic Democracy 43015Dara Albright
We’re living in a remarkable moment in history where due to technological achievement & legislative overhaul, we are witnessing a reconstitution of our entire finance system. Because these changes are essentially democratizing finance by drawing in the crowds, this reformation is being referred to as “crowdfinance”. Crowdfinance will cause Wall Street & Banking to be unrecognizable in a few short years. But, with great change comes great opportunity. This presentation illustrates how modern investors, businesses and underwriters can capitalize on this financial transformation.

How Successful Crowdsourcing Depends on asking 'Interesting Questions'Crowdsourcing Week

Contestant Centered Design: creative approaches to designing competitionsCrowdsourcing Week
Creativity is critical to solving complex problems, developing new strategies, facilitating innovation, and driving organizational change. NIST’s Public Safety Communications Research Division’s open innovation efforts focuses on advancing wireless communications for America’s first responders by leveraging expertise and innovative solutions through crowdsourcing and collaboration. Success relies on creating competitions that achieve NIST’s organizational goals, incentivize world class science, remove barriers to entry, and maximize participation. Not an easy equation to balance. This session will discuss how design tradeoffs are considered for a variety of competition elements as concepts develop into a competition and as competitions are implemented. The goal of this interactive session is to provide a behind-the-scenes view of our process, engage audience ideas, and dive into a discussion about crowdsourcing and contestant-centered design.
Ethan will talk about the opportunity to reward crowdsourcing participants through crypto assets/tokens that allows the possibility of performing many micro transactions, saving costs for both the business and the users. In addition, the topic of transparency coming from the blockchain sector where business are now becoming more open to have the public help with tough R&D questions that in the past would have been kept internal. The blockchain industry is in fact growing communities as their branding strategy from the start, and rely on transparency for their community to trust them. All in all, we are seeing the tools in the making to ignite crowdsourcing’s future potential within decentralized business models. Lastly, we will dive into current use case studies from crowdholding.com, on creating a crowd rewarding mechanism for both crowd intelligence and crowd marketing.

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.

Financial Assets: Debit vs Equity Securities.pptxWrito-Finance
financial assets represent claim for future benefit or cash. Financial assets are formed by establishing contracts between participants. These financial assets are used for collection of huge amounts of money for business purposes.
Two major Types: Debt Securities and Equity Securities.
Debt Securities are Also known as fixed-income securities or instruments. The type of assets is formed by establishing contracts between investor and issuer of the asset.
• The first type of Debit securities is BONDS. Bonds are issued by corporations and government (both local and national government).
• The second important type of Debit security is NOTES. Apart from similarities associated with notes and bonds, notes have shorter term maturity.
• The 3rd important type of Debit security is TRESURY BILLS. These securities have short-term ranging from three months, six months, and one year. Issuer of such securities are governments.
• Above discussed debit securities are mostly issued by governments and corporations. CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSITS CDs are issued by Banks and Financial Institutions. Risk factor associated with CDs gets reduced when issued by reputable institutions or Banks.
Following are the risk attached with debt securities: Credit risk, interest rate risk and currency risk
There are no fixed maturity dates in such securities, and asset’s value is determined by company’s performance. There are two major types of equity securities: common stock and preferred stock.
Common Stock: These are simple equity securities and bear no complexities which the preferred stock bears. Holders of such securities or instrument have the voting rights when it comes to select the company’s board of director or the business decisions to be made.
Preferred Stock: Preferred stocks are sometime referred to as hybrid securities, because it contains elements of both debit security and equity security. Preferred stock confers ownership rights to security holder that is why it is equity instrument
<a href="https://www.writofinance.com/equity-securities-features-types-risk/" >Equity securities </a> as a whole is used for capital funding for companies. Companies have multiple expenses to cover. Potential growth of company is required in competitive market. So, these securities are used for capital generation, and then uses it for company’s growth.
Concluding remarks
Both are employed in business. Businesses are often established through debit securities, then what is the need for equity securities. Companies have to cover multiple expenses and expansion of business. They can also use equity instruments for repayment of debits. So, there are multiple uses for securities. As an investor, you need tools for analysis. Investment decisions are made by carefully analyzing the market. For better analysis of the stock market, investors often employ financial analysis of companies.

2. We cannot connect the dots looking forward,
we can only connect them looking backward
3. Why does crowdfunding exist ?
Internet
Economic and Social crisis
(imbalance of revenues, investment
capabilities and investment returns)
Crowdsourcing
Success stories : Kiva, Zopa, Lending
Club , …
Prominent individuals embracing it
(Elon Musk, John Mack (CS former
CEO), François Hollande (France
Republic President),...)
More importantly, a
combination of factors that
makes it possible
4. Craving crowds for greater investment
transparency
The Crowds crave for greater investment transparency : They
want to know what they invest in and they want feedback
– E.g. crowdfunding replaces investments in « Sustainable » funds
with only large caps (?!)
5. Crowdfunding is more than finance
Social connections
Investment opportunities for companies
Support & Professional services
It is about people… Role of Crowdsourcing
7. Trends in Crowdfunding are
lightning bolt
Growth of specific
crowdfunding types
– Credit crowdfunding / p2p
lending (largest in terms
of volumes)
Growth of specific
crowdfunding industries
– Real Estate crowdfunding
– Gaming
– Connected devices …
8. Crowdsourcing vs. Crowdfunding ?
Global vs. Local
Crowdsourcing enables resources holders to connect globally to
resources requirers
– The same is true for Crowdfunding
But knowledge and risk management are most important factors in
Crowdfunding
– Result is the vast majority of transactions happen locally or within
close communities (potentially online)
Combined models yet need to emerge.
9. On the importance of IT and Data
Crowdfunding is heavily relying on
IT
Transparency and investors
information is only as good as the
inputs provided by the platforms
and entrepreneurs
APIs structures are key going
forward
10. Crowdfunding is a challenge
to the Nations
Too costly for single Nations to re-define entire regulations
for the purpose of crowdfunding
– And too costly in terms of cost of opportunity, since larger market and
Nations will quickly acquire a competitive advantage (e.g.
UK, US, Singapore…), very difficult to catch up later on
In Europe, coordinated action is yet to be seen
– Actions should include incentive for crowdfunding platforms and more
generally entrepreneurship finance support
11. Crowdfunding platform need to become
the Facebooks of project investment
The crowdfunding platforms need more crowdsourcing, more input from the
crowd
They need more services and partnerships from established network of partners
They need innovative ways to raise money and to communicate about their
investment opportunities
They need new ways to tap into the crowd, not just for money but for their
knowledge, social networks and intangible assets
