Conclusions

Feature of the project: Russian team, reliance on the Russian blockchain Waves – successful project with well-deserved reputation. The Russian team guarantees high quality of development and compliance with deadlines. Therefore, roadmap is quite realistic. The development of the project in the event of success ICO is almost guaranteed.
A very good tokenomics – preset motivating, can promise a very good profit even with a slight increase in the token. And the growth is quite expected according to market conjuncture. There may be problems in connection with the B2B orientation – these are extremely distrustful customers. They will enter the project, only after having calculated everything. Success will depend on marketing activity, taking into account technologies that are applicable to B2B. Perhaps, the traditional hype will not be enough. But this will only delay the growth of the token, which most likely will grow.
