On the team the token for team and advisors is extremely high and cannot see any lockin for advisors so risk that they sell and walk away as soon as token is liquid.

What are your liquity management plans for the funds you raise , will you hold them as crypto or convent to fiat? Whats the liquidty and rosk management policy for the ICO funds that effectively are proposed bank capital. With IPO plan how does this benefit equity holders versus token holders ? What is the equity structure and are team and advisors also getting equity ? Interesting project but several questions and answers to these would help reassess

It seems they did not look for advisors that can really bring them to the next level but advisors that have a rank on ico bench. Also there is no fixed holding period for advisors or executives.

The business idea is interesting and also the traction they already have. Nevertheless, why waste so many token on a large advisory board that is only for the Paper?

This is officially my third review of this ICO. My first review was fives across the board because I loved the concept. After remembering how hard it is to start a bank in the US, I lowered my score. After realizing that getting the banking system to change is one of the hurdles the entire industry faces, I am back to fives across the board. Baanx is like the Expedia.com of exchanges combined with a very franchise friendly and scalable banking concept.

Very ambitious project, responding to a real need on the market.
Can succeed as long as there is no competition from existing banks that want to enter the crypto-market.

The team behind the project seems not to be crypto-oriented but have a big experience in the banking world.
