The use of current communication media facilities
has grown so rapidly in line with the advancement of communication technology,
where users are faced with many options that to be able to convey / access
information and communicate both through conventional type of print and
electronic. As we altogether know that technology is developed and always
developing, improvement in any aspect such as also sport, education, art, social
environment, and most of human activities are touched with technology including
communication media.
There are various type of communication
media both printed and electronic such as mass media, telecommunication, and
social media itself. Printed and radio media is a communication media that has been
long existed, followed by television and network including interne in around
end of 20th century. But the most developed one among them is social
media supported by internet which is specific part of electronic media.
Nowadays, this social media which is addressed as an on-line media which can
provides conditions to its users to be able in easily participation, sharing
and create a paper, article or video in various manners. The most
often used of social media by people now is social networking which can allows them
to create personal web pages and networks, connecting with friends and
community to share information and communicate each other between them.
The ease of social media just only
requires ownership or presence of smartphones with internet data, anytime and
anywhere. The most interesting thing of the activity in social media is the
abundance of information relating to user activities, both personal and group.
Social media also can serve the users
for freedom to create messages, edit them, add messages or posts, modify posts,
images and video, graphics and so on. All can be done by user himself practically,
easily and with in-expensive without the help of others. This is the reasons
why social media now can grow so rapidly. For this situation, there is a team
who has great idea and really observant in seeing the opportunities of social
media, joined together in ONZ to create ONZCoin.
As quoted from the website through this
link https://www.onzcoin.com/#how-it-works,
it is known that ONZ team strongly believes nowadays the social interactions
are a fundamental human need. However there is a problem impacted by this
social media by facing a crisis of separation arising from differing ideals in
politics and ideology. Through social media, it is easily people turn against
each other that can lead to distrust and loneliness. But ONZ team believes that
the problem can be potentially reduced with the using of technology appropriately.
The aspiration of ONZ team to find solution of the problem is based also on the
fact of social media usage recently are so well established, they presented some
figures of social networks in 2017 as below :
·
Global
users: 2.8 billions
·
Advertising
revenue: 41 billions (USD)
·
Time
spent: 2 hours and 19 minutes (daily)
·
Snapchat
hits: 10 billion daily video views
·
Social
media ad spend surpasses TV
Further will be presented about ONZCoin
to know more it contribution and role to community life in social media.
Who
And What Is ONZ Coin?
As
aforesaid that ONZ team departs from social media situation recently which has
influenced the world community. As says in ONZ white paper, this team see social
media has aims to connect people and community but ONZ team find a number of less
good reports of this social media suggesting that the more time people spend on
social media then this people chances of feeling socially isolated can be
increasing twice. Because of that, ONZ team hope to reduce that report and even
if possible to increase the benefits of.
It
can be seen from ONZ website : https://www.onzcoin.com/#team, persons who joined in ONZ team who believer in quality, they
consist persons who has dedicated, skilled and intelligent person. It is better
to know each key person on the team to increase knowing of this team better
then the trust to the product can be increased also.
Generally,
ONZ team consist of Developer, IT expert including Blockchain Technology,
crypto-social expert and marketing expert for various area. Here they are :

From above list, seems the key personnel of ONZ team can be
trusted as experienced and possess expertise in their each field. Product which
is being created by them surely will appear in good quality, this will be a
strong reference for users to invest in their products created.
This ONZ team at least expect that their minimum achievement is
this ONZ idea could be a critical starting point of social media based on
token. Their expectations are coming from belief of the power of social media
and the effort also the time spent by people on social media and community
network can actually become a real asset to power the world and society. There
will be a transformation brought as result of three factors as follow :
- 1. capability of Delegated Proof-of-Stakes (DPOS) technology which is capable of reliably confirming transactions in 15 seconds which beats the 10 mins per transaction by Bitcoin, or 40 times faster on average as described in the whitepaper.
- 2. blockchain architecture they are developing
- 3. Initial Coin Offering (ICO) community.
From
ONZ team point of view there is a gap between social media and people
interacting in the cyber world and real face-to-face interaction. Hence the
team aim to build a real-time real space token based social media community to
bridge that gap. Through this ONZ, the team expect to restore the connectivity breakdown
in world society and also raise awareness on the problem by a solution they are
trying from ONZ.
ONZ
word itself actually as the team found and presented on their whitepaper is a
succinct term used in certain south-east Asian countries to represent a positive
and definitive acknowledgement of a task, appreciation or an appointment. Refers
to that term then team name the project as ONZ in order to be able to recognize
the value of each other and to acknowledge what others do in real life. It can
be observed from social media usage that the most common action of appreciation
in social media is liking someone's post such as sharing of beautiful pictures
or nice sentences. Then it is arisen main idea of the team as a solution of
this social media by transforming a simple "like" into an action and from
an action into a value. This transforming is a most principle of how ONZ work
for social media.
Onzcoin
actually is not a social media platform but ONZ will integrate multiple social
media such as Facebook, Twitter etc and get the user’s data, then evaluate
their information and rewards them with token. Similar scheme for better understanding
that ONZ is a bit like Steemit, people can get rewards by posting good article.
But current scheme is too centralize and can easily be cheated. Hence ONZ use
decentralized blockchain to store the value of social media users.
ONZ
itself is forked from Lisk, but not running on Lisk. Reason to choose DPOS into
ONZ since DPOS coin provide good HODL value, because all coin owners can earn
extra coins by voting rewards sharing pool or become an active delegate.
Later
to be presented and described more detail about ONZ technology.
Timeline and Roadmap of ONZ Project
To realize the idea of ONZ, team has formulated the time
required and the stages of what should be performed. ONZ team had studied cryptocurrency
technology and blockchain networks to be able for integration with social media
on 2016. ONZ team launched a few internal proof of concept projects on a
POW/POS ALT coin platform with social media smart contracts that result to the proved
of feasibility of the concept. Continued In 2017 summer, ONZ team decided to
integrate the concept with a better (the latest) DPOS consensus algorithm
cryptocurrency technology and confirmed the roadmap to kick off the social
media based coin aka ONZ coin.
As time formulation created, there 4 stages with 6 phases
to be executed. Each stage and corresponding activities are illustrated in the
diagram below :
Each phases and stages of the project
timeline are describing as following :
·
Research - The studying phase that
ONZ team has put a lot of effort into searching for the best blockchain
solution, from the architecture of each blockchain down to coding level
details. The best solution should have suitable functionalities to meet the
platform requirements. ONZ team believes that their research is completed and
the outcome as solution is positive that is the DPOS based blockchain. POC -
ONZ team has been focusing on how to utilize DPOS blockchain and how much the
software could be customized to fit ONZ platform. ONZ team has spent a lot of
time on POC coding to make sure the DPOS fork is capable ONZ team has set up a
private TESTNET to test the customized blockchain. The test result is promising
and the team believes the POC phase is a success and confirmed ONZ project
could proceed with the technology.
·
TESTNET Dev - ONZ team is now working on
to take the private TESTNET to the next level by opening it to the public, this
can be referred to ICO arrangement section for the details on how to join the
TESTNET. ONZ team believes that it is essential to allow an individuals who
have the same view with ONZ team to participate.
·
MAINNET Dev -
That development phase will undergo in parallel with the ICO Planning phase as
they are dependable. The MAINNET go-live will be determined by the outcome of
ICO result.
·
ICO Planning -
Current stage of ONZ team mainly focusing on announcing this project to the
public for ICO.
·
ICO - Initial coin offering phase, please
refer to the ICO arrangement section for more details.
·
SM Integration -
Social media integration phase is the next big step ONZ team would like to make
after the success of ICO. The integration includes both software development
(ONZProbe/ONZScale etc) and building up the partnership with the individual
social media platform.
·
Development 1 -
This phase comes after SM Integration to push MAINNET into the full end to end
functional stage. It is to make sure the SM integration functionalities work on
MAINNET, and launch the functionalities to selected pilot users.
·
Development 2 -
The contingency development phase picks up outstanding / bugs / missing pieces
from the pilot testing phase, which aims to reserve resource on development to
round up stage 3 system functionalities.
·
Development 3 - At
this stage of development before the final stage, optional software component
(e.g. ONZScale comment based weighting algorithm, digital asset stamping
algorithm) and value added functionalities could be included in this phase to
put ONZ platform into the final stage.
How
excellent is the ONZCoin?
As discussed above specifically about
ONZCoin, we have known what and who is ONZ and also the timeline to actualize
this idea. With ONZ team creation and innovation, they finally have a solution
that can guarantee users the simple comfort of usage. That special services
provided only and most possibly the pioneer by ONZ, currently it can’t be found
anywhere else. The special services of
ONZ is coming from the proved technology of blockchain and also excellent idea
of the team. It is necessary to know technology scheme used by ONZ in
order to be more convincing our self how reliable and how excellent the idea developed
by the team.
The main idea of ONZ as preserved
aforesaid is to integrate social media platforms with DPOS blockchain
technology to transform appreciation on social media platforms into ONZ
cryptocurrency network as a transferable token. The value of the ONZ token will
depend on how the community recognizes it in terms of real value. ONZ is
transferable if someone wanted to send ONZ to others as appreciation in real
life. The value of ONZ token will be primarily based on the trust in the community
and the system will consist of the following 6 (six) components:
1.
ONZNet
– DPOS crypto backbone
2.
ONZCoin
- Social Value Unit
3.
ONZProbe
- Social Media Adaptor
4.
ONZScale
- Social Media Weighting Bot
5.
ONZStamp
- Social Asset Stamping Bot
6.
ONZWallet
- Digital Wallet
Each of the components as quoted from
ONZ whitepapers are described as following :
1.
ONZNet-
DPOS crypto backbone
The
backbone of the platform which takes care of all of the transactions with DPOS
blockchain technology, which is the fastest, most efficient, most decentralized
and flexible model. The fee, schedules of blocking forging, and transaction
size could be tuned via elected delegates. The top 101 delegates determined by
the voting weight of voters are actively forging and securing the network. The
DPOS network can average forges blocks at around 10s intervals which is much
faster than POW/POS based blockchain and DPOS network also is very hard to be
dominated by CPU power. The forging party will be rewarded by a certain amount
of ONZCoin which comes from the transaction fee of the platform user. The
ONZNet consists of TESTNET and MAINNET, please refer to the ICO arrangement
section for the details on how to become a participant of ONZNet.
2.
ONZCoin
- Social Value Unit
The
value carrier throughout the platform. The value of ONZCoin varies with the recognition
and level of trust of the whole community. It is not in a physical form but it
exhibits properties similar to physical currencies and allows instantaneous transaction
and borderless transfer of ownership. Potentially, depending on how the
community receives the platform, ONZ team hopes to see an ONZ social value coin
would be used to buy physical goods and services one day. ONZCoin aims to model
the weighting of an individual in social media, which is primarily based on the
following four measures: Active, Recognition, Influence, Asset. Further
description can be elaborated at this link : https://www.onzcoin.com/assets/files/onz_whitepaper.pdf
3.
ONZProbe-Social
Media Adaptor
ONZProbe
is the key component that ONZ team will be focused on because it will be the
only channel to integrate with social media platforms. ONZProbe is not only a
software development sub-project but also a key part the team needs to bear
with in aiming to obtain social media buy-in for the integration. ONZProbe
technically will be built for each social media platform, and the component
will normalize the data and feedback to ONZScale, the Social Media Weighting
Bot for evaluation of individual social value. The primary use case is a user
to grant permission to ONZProbe to access their social media data and for historical
posts.
4.
ONZScale
- Social Media Weighting Bot
ONZScale
is the second most important subproject which ONZ team will be focusing on. The
algorithm needs to be developed to evaluate the data feed from ONZProbe on an
individual. In order to quantify the social media weight of the individual
which is very important because that weighing will be transformed into a
certain amount of ONZCoin. The algorithm could be based on the normalized
social data, the current value of ONZCoin, the ONZNet’s performance and the
recognition of service partners.
5.
ONZStamp
- Social Asset Stamping Bot
ONZStamp
is a component ONZ team would like to have in order to digitize social media
assets and to verify whether a post is original or not. ONZ team is promoting
social media copyrights but technically the team need a way to distinguish
original and reposted content in order to evaluate it with different weighting.
It is still a very abstract idea from the implementation but it will be factored
into ONZ development roadmap.
6.
ONZWallet
- Digital Wallet
The
wallet is how everyone in the community keeps their own ONZCoin. Each wallet
has a unique address which basically is the identifier in the network. It is just
like a bank account number, all transactions are from/to an individual’s ONZWallet
address. ONZ team already has ONZWallet ready and is actively testing it in
ONZNet TESTNET. Currently, there are a number of ONZWallet versions which can
be run on different mobile and computer platforms. ONZWallet is a software
wallet which is very secure but it also has the same disadvantages as a digital
wallet, the loss of credential and amount transferred to wrong address is
unrecoverable. ONZ team has also planned a hardware wallet in the development
roadmap, subject to the overall project outcome and success.
So, above 6 components of ONZ
that can realize the purpose of team and also can be known how this ONZ serve
social media users for real benefit for their life.
Project
Execution through ICO
To execute this project, team
are preparing fund for project expense. By this ONZCoin then the project can be
executed smoothly to give benefit for social media users and also to drive
social media to be more positive thing in human life of world society.
It is very useful and good to
support this project in the ICO participation organized by the ONZ team. Related
with this ICO, author will present in general because in detail can be found at
this link https://www.onzcoin.com/#pricing
and also ONZ whitepaper.
The ONZ team provide opportunity
to public who are interested to participate in this project by supporting from
the public culminating in an ICO, while the ICO itself is divided by team into
2 phases :
1.
Early
supporter phase
2.
Public
offering which is immediately afterwards
In general, the ICO
arrangement are as below graph :
The arrangement
also provide below information :
·
Minimum Threshold - The minimum amount of value
ONZ team needs to have to take this ONZ project forward and consider the ICO to
be succeeded. The minimum threshold is 100 BTC, the amount that will cover the
costs from P1 to
P3.
·
Target - The target amount of the ICO is 500
BTC, which enable ONZ team to take the project forward from P3 to P4 for
launching MAINNET and further from P4 to P5 for initial SM Integration works.
·
Hard Cap - The ICO with the ceiling of 1200BTC
is confirmed. This is to ensure that those who sent BTC receive a certain
amount of ONZCoin after the end of the ICO. The ICO will be closed as long as
the ceiling has been reached and no
more
participant will be taken from that point.
·
Underlying Coin supported - ONZ team will
accept BTC, BCH, LTC, ETH, SHIFT, LISK, RISE and ARK. And the value of the
tokens used will be averaged across the period of ICO period. The average value
will be calculated by picking the value of each multiple times a day using
Coinmarketcap API.
·
Price per ONZCoin - The price of ONZCoin will
depend upon the amount raised during the ICO as long as minimum threshold has
been reached. For the details of the calculation and examples please refer to
the distribution calculation
section.
There is calculation
scheme prepared by ONZ Team, to understand better of this calculation also
presented 3 (three) scenario as a description of this calculation. Further
information can be obtained in their whitepaper.
Fund Management Planning
Team will manage
the plan through 2 (two) scheme, the first is ONZCoin Distribution and the
second is Outcome of the ONZ selling by raising fund to be distributed as
called Outcome Distribution.
Here is below
general description of fund management planning of ONZ team :
1.
ONZ
Distribution
The total
population of ONZ at the pre-mined stage is 180,000,000 ONZ. As one of the
purposes of ICO, ONZ team would like to get extra support to fund the project.
So the only portion of the total population 135,000,000 ONZ (75%) will be
offered in ESP and ICO. The rest of it will be reserved for the project. The distribution
is shown as below:
2. Outcome Distribution
ONZ
Team has planned to manage the fund raised by ICO as ICO outcome, outcome will
be distributed to support the project including marketing, operational cost,
support for the development, reserved for contingency and founders. In
graphical view, the Outcome Distribution can be presented as below :
As outlined
above that this project is a penetration to drive social media user into
realization in society life in the whole world, it can be expected that trend
of social media usage by world community can become better und useful meaning.
