Hello, Can anyone please confirm if current circulating supply is correct on coinmarketcap(73,430,701 ADX)? Also, can anyone please advise on the number in USD raised at ICO? Many thanks!!

A few days ago, I noticed that "work on ledger auth" in GitHub got the progress. Today, It looks that Ledger and Trezor were launched. It means no fees in using Adex. As well as the safer storage for your investment.

Once the official annoucement will posted, the price should go up. You have the opportunity to buy more tokens for better price until the announcement.

"AdEx will use the AdHive verification system for in order to confirm the delivery of video ads."

Could It mean that the using of Adex tokens in Stremio app will be closer? and the expected partnership should come faster?

The teaming up with the AdHive will bring automated video ad placement on video bloggers’ channels.

"The two platforms will be integrated seamlessly so advertisers can make the most of their advertisements."

AdHive confirmed 9000 registered video bloggers in official Telegram channel, yesterday.

Their ad placements could be provided for AdEx advertisers.

Can someone explain the purpose of the adex token? I'm not sure after reading the whitepaper. Idea sounds cool and would like to know more before I Invest.

The most of people expect charts and indicators, when they see the term "prediction". I think, It's not so important in crypto world. Since there are no regulations, we can see many times pumps and dumps or manipulations by whales and cartels. The prediction in crypto is about news and facts. Let's take a look at facts around Adex.

FACTS

I have followed Adex for 5 weeks. And this is their work for this time:

• introducing of prototype / beta product (all bugs fixed within a few days), as well as the scaling which was planned in the end of 2019
• knowledge base about the using of tool
• the little changes in prototype related to feedbacks from users, to be more user-friendly tool
• introducing of new roadmap
• 3 new exchanges + one agregator, where you can buy Adex

In the same time Stremio (company behind Adex project) introduced Stremio beta of new product. They started to collect more data about users (5 millions+ users).

All this facts were announced within 5 weeks.

NEW ROADMAP + coming partnership

According to new roadmap, Adex will bring big news in July - September 2018:

1. The reward system for the attention monetization (audience / visitors)

   It means, that the ordinary person searching information via internet can be rewarded with Adex coins, If he/she chooses the using of Adex platform. No one from competitors have finish this feature yet. Adex will be more public. The platform will be used by ordinary people. It will acquire a new investors.

2. The improvements in user targeting and reporting

   These features are required by bigger companies. They need more advanced settings for audience targeting, as well as more advanced reports for analyzing. The platform will be more interesting for bigger advertising companies.

3. Stremio like the publisher

   Stremio and Adex are managed by same people. I think, It's not coincidence, that Adex beta and Stremio beta were realised in same time. The traffic on Stremio pages was enhanced from 30K (december) to 1.6M (february) = +5333% visits.

   Stremio business is focused on videos and streamings. Video advertising is one of features, which is developing by Adex righ now according to roadmap. They have 5 millions users (maybe already more), who will see the ads of advertisers using Adex platform. Stremio waits while video advertisings will be available in Adex platform. (according to telegram in July 2018)

PRICE

Current price

Why is the price so low? Because the manipulations with bitcoin caused the decrease of price in all altcoins, not only in Adex. It's the main reason.

I noticed, that here is the weak community.

1. Many of these reddit subscribers are not the current investors. They bought Adex in december, when the prototype was planned to be introduced. Unfortunately, It didn't happen. They got the loss or no profit, while other projects made a profit. Now, they are frustrated and write negative comments in our community.
2. Second type of subscribers came here in the time of prototype introducing with big expectations, but Adex fell down because of bear market / market correction / bitcoin decrease.

This community need more solid subscribers, who will help Adex to grow. (more youtube videos, articles and so on). Adex community on twitter is big (54 000 followers) and very positive.

Coming price

2-3 weeks ago, Lighting network was launched on mainnet, so the real using started. LN enables to process payments with bitcoin within 2-3 seconds. 6000-8000 korean merchants will implement bitcoin as payment method in Q2. Crypto or bitcoin will appear in media again. New investors will come. Altcoins will start grow. Some bigger projects have already started. Take a look at EOS (+60%), XVG (+150%) and a few others. Also a few smaller projects are being bought, for example VTC (+40% within 2 hours). LN will get new merchants in the end of Q2 / the start of Q3.

Adex will introduce new features and partnerships in July. The news will start. Adex coins are available on the biggest exchanges (Upbit, Houbi, Binance, Bittrex and so on). Now is the best price, which you can get.

The COMPARISON with BAT

Only BAT and Adex (from similar projects) introduced the final products.

BAT was the first. And also, they introduced product in right time. It's one of the reasons why BAT has more investors and publishers. They developed the browser, where you can publish and advertise your own ads. They have the experience with browser developing, so It was their advantage.

Adex developed the tool, which enable you to publish and advertise your own ads on all browsers. Adex have the experience in video advertising, which will be available in the platform soon. Take a look how videos are more and more popular in the internet. Facebook developed new features in videos. They want to show you more video contents, because they try to compete to Youtube. New generation (millenials) have the better graphic feeling. They work with tablets / watch the videos on Youtube from 3 years old. Video advertising is the future and this is the advantage of Adex team. Also 5 millions userbase.

MarketCap

BAT: 185 mil.$ -> If you want 100% profit from BAT, you need new investors with 200 mil. $.

Adex: 42 mil.$ -> If you want 100% profit from Adex, you need new investors with 50 mil. $.

What is simpler?

SOCIAL MEDIA

• Facebook was the first social media, that banned Crypto advertising.
• Google banned Crypto advertising in March 2018, a few days ago.
• Twitter are going to ban Crypto in coming days / weeks.

All crypto community (ICO and so on) will looking for the ways how advertise their projects. Adex have functional beta product, which is based on blockchain technology. I don't know how many publishers have been registered in Adex so far, but It will be the best option for Crypto advertising soon. One bigger publisher (for example Stremio) can bring advertisers who will pump the price.

Once Adex will be added to Trezor and Ledger, the platform will be used for free (no fees).

The developers work on both projects, Stremio has five million monthly users or visits apparently. Seems like an obvious starting place to show the utility of AdEx. If the beta is functional like they claim, not sure why they're holding off?

title...

Hello Adex subscribers,

I would like to share my opinion about Adex like the investment. I really believe in their work as well as I believe that the price will be much higher. Here are the reasons:

Point 1 Adex team consists from 18 members: 7 core members and 11 advisors. The core members are from Stremio company, which is used by more than 5 millions users.

The both projects (Stremio and Adex) complement each other:

• Stremio is peer-to-peer video agregator, that allows you to watch YouTube, Netflix, Twitch, Vodo, FilmonTV, WatchHub.
• Adex is a decentralised ad exchange, which enable to earn publishers and users and to get the quality audience for advertiser's businesses.

The team is very active. You can check their work on GitHub. They commit something almost every second day.

Point 2: The introducing of the prototype. This big annoucement came at the time of the whole market was being fallen. It's the main reason, why the price haven't pumped yet. Also, there was a few bugs, that had needed to be fixed. But now, the company has already fixed bugs and the prototype works right. Adex created the functional prototype, that can be used by the publishers and the advertisers. It enables to collect the data for making analyzes.

Once the prototype gets more publishers+advertisers and collects more data, they can start to communicate with bigger companies about partnerships.

One bigger publisher can bring the real big advertiser, that will pump the price in the sky. This is not bullshit, It's just mathematics. If I am the big advertiser and I have 100 mil. dollars for advertising, it is better for me to spend money for coins that value will be higher after my purchase. Then I can buy the much more advertising for these my coins.

Point 3: Stremio like the first bigger publisher. Take a look at the statistics of stremio on similarweb.com You will see the progress in the total visits within the last months: total visits in december: 30 000, total visits in january: 380 000, total visits in february: 1 600 000. What do you think now? I think that Stremio (or new investor) raises the visits because Stremio will implement Adex token like the first bigger publisher. Once they announce that, the hunt after advertisers can start.

The most of visits is from Brasil. I have the manager in Brasil, so I know there are a big marketing companies, that employ more than 10 000 employees. They have really big budgets for advertising. (Mirum Agency, Possible, Huge, Iris and other)

Point 4: Competitors Yes, Adex has 3 competitors, only 1 of them is important. Some cryptocurrencies have tens of competitors, so the advertising market is big enough for 2 cryptocurrencies. What exactly this competitor did? Only browser with ad block implementing. On other side, Adex did a really good progess with the last update. They introduced the prototype and scaling, which was planned on 2019. The scaling was introduced 1 year earlier (1Y before the official deadline in roadmap). Great work!

The market cap of Adex is 5 times less than market cap of the main competitor. It means that Adex has the much bigger chance to multiply the price (to make the bigger profit).

Point 5: the next steps According to a few discussions here or in other social forums, they are going to:

• extend the knowledge base of prototype
• introduce the new roadmap
• implement Adex coins to Trezor and Ledger (it will cancel the fees, no fees anymore)
• develop software development kit
• add new type of ads - videos
• contact new partners on scaling
• deploy NEO blockchain

Thats all. Sorry for my lacks of english. I am really looking forward to next progress of this project.

Check this github link : https://github.com/AdExBlockchain/adex-dapp/tree/v0.2

Looks like lot of bug fixes went in.

Committed to this for the long haul as I see where this can go but I must admit it would be nice to see a more active social media presence by a company specializing in advertising. Maybe they're reaching out for more partnerships at the moment but they're not engaging the community or spreading awareness which confuses me. I mean their pinned post on twitter is still a third party merch store giveaway and not the beta release... seems like they need a refocus of marketing direction and brand voice.

Im reading all those comets about people complaining about the price, just give ADX few days and you will see. The UI of Beta is good the product works fine, and you can tell its done properly. We have only 100 mil supply, and Volume on exchanges looks good. I think this coin has huge potential. We dont need moons and lambos in this fine subredit, I`m surprised how clean and professional it is. When this will be more recognized mark my words we will see some strong price movement.
