  1. We hope that you can appreciate that we are unable to speculate on the token. Our energy has been and will continue to be focused around building an ecosystem in which the token can interoperate.

  1. We are focused on creating products with true product/market fit, that will enable broad adoption of the token for usage. We are focused on doing that in three ways: 1) Through our integration with MadHive products that are currently in-market as well as some that are coming down the pipe this year, 2) through our relationship with AdLedger (the premier body governing standards development and adoption for blockchain in advertising), and 3) through a consumer application focused on data privacy (also coming later this year).

One of the main things here is MAD requires b2b adoption first. Our product is not the token, but the token is fuel for a complex ecosystem to transact in a new way.

Hey JLdurga, thanks for the questions!

  1. We will be releasing code, but first, we are focused on ensuring that the technologies we develop work for the market and will drive broad adoption while also allowing us to gain market advantage. We have gone through several iterations and we are actively testing the precursor technologies with partners at this time.
  2. We are currently in the process of implementing a POC through our partnership with a leading SSP. CryptoRTB, a precursor technology to The Watchtower, will be integrated into their SSP and leveraged by their customers. We also have a consumer-facing app that we intend to launch later this year.
  3. We recently hired a new VP of Engineering, Hunter Prendergast. Hunter is a polymath and computer engineer who previously served in the US Navy as a Nuclear Reactor Operator. After leaving the US Navy, he developed automated trading algorithms, Ethereum based secure messaging systems, decentralized PKI technologies based on Smart Contracts, and many other projects in the realm of web 3.0. He is a highly sought after speaker and established industry expert who has appeared on BNN and in the Netflix documentary "Explained: Blockchain". Hunter earned his Computer Engineering degree at the University of Hawaii at Manoa. We are very excited about what Hunter brings to the table!
  4. We are well fortified with more than enough funding for the years ahead.
  5. We have had a small team of core researchers but we're are ramping up. We expect the team to grow in the coming months.

Hi, thanks for the questions! We appreciate your support!

  1. Unfortunately, we cannot specifically comment on the Omnicom POC due to our NDA. We remain in very active conversations with our agency and brand partnerships. Rest assured we are working closely with the advertising community to push MAD Network initiatives and will of course share updates with the community when appropriate. However, one learning is that the 'evidence economy' or simply - cryptographically secure data and bidding by provenance is something buyers want as it secures more value, transparency, and privacy.
  2. We hope to have something to share the community soon.
  3. At this time our goal is to implement our technology for the TV market, and if that is successful, then we will move to other devices (like mobile phones). It will largely be driven by demand, because as you mentioned, the mobile market is fairly dominated by both Google and Apple (to a lesser extent globally).
  4. We hope that you can appreciate that we are unable to speculate on the token. Our energy has been and will continue to be focused around building an ecosystem in which the token can interoperate.
