Sapien

I upgraded my rating after getting feedback from the team and deeper insight. The team is devoted to the project and product development. Good luck!

Great team, vision and product! Best of luck guys!

Great Team. Awesome projects that seems to have been very well thought out. I look forward to seeing what Sapien does after the ICO

The team is a bit inexperienced, but they're passionate and dedicated. It's a great idea and if executed the right way will become very popular, a lot of potential here.

Team is a bit unexperienced, but the idea and approach are intriguing.

Interesting project with some potential

I love the vision. Empowering a new social media network in combination with News that can start to draw people from the incumbent network by rewarding them for sharing their data and allowing them to control it. It's not a new idea, but one that has not been executed well with Blockchain yet.

The two founders are young and building their first major product - but I've met them in person and what they lack in experience they make up with passion. Ankit is pouring his heart and soul into this project. And don't forget just how young Vitalik was when he took on the status quo with his vision for Ethereum, built it and rocked the world. Plus any number of dot com and Web 2.0 products came from folks still at college - just look at Facebook.

The vision is clear - to turn our current centralized social networks inside out and put people and freedom of speech first. It goes far beyond what Steemit is offering and has better economics IMO. Based on my experience as a Steemit user I think there is every chance a well executed Sapien could be extremely popular.

I have tried the beta site and they already have a lot working, I was actually impressed how much you can do. Just needs users and of course it needs to be ready to scale!

In the era where social media platforms are under more and more scrutiny due to their content, Sapien looks to help clean up many of the issues that are present. I look forward to seeing where the project will go.

Looks good, like it.

Very Interesting concept. Looking forward for it.

Yet another social platform. Neat Whitepaper, team and advisers are ok, not very unique
product and vision.
"ERC20-compliant cryptocurrency that will incentivize quality content"? You must be kidding. You have to learn more about cryptocurrencies, tokens and distributed technologies and difference between them.

The project has several strong and weak sides.

What I like about this project:

- Passionate team;
- Transparent and clear business model;
- Good token economics;
- Great marketing;
- Relatively unique concept;
- Experienced advisory board.

What I don't like about it:

- Democratized or decentralized social news platform doesn't exclude "fake" news, as marketing of the platform promises. In fact, various misconceptions and fake news could be unintentionally promoted by majority of population. Thing like "fake" or "not fake" can be very subjective and can't be solved by decentralization process;
- Majority of blockchain social platforms are not as successful as they look on the paper;
- Road Map is not clear and detailed enough;
- It might take a long time before the platform will be able to form its basic customer base;
- Product is not ready yet

Excellent team / product. Only roadblock I see is user adoption.

Very good traction on social media and telegram. Great project, very good potential.

Like the idea. Good luck guys!

Great team and excellent project. I have re-rated Sapien after a thorough review.

Team is raw, young and unproven, but I think a good team should have more than just past ico experience. This team seems dedicated, and has a decent amount of advisors.
This product has a unique vision to deal with a Fake News problem that we have in our society. I agree with other reviewers that this product takes Steemit a step further and aims to provide more control to the users.

It has the potential to be a popular network and the pre-ico numbers are showing quite an interest so far.
