Railz ICO (RLZ)

Blockchain based platform for machine-to-machine negotiation technologies

Railz is a blockchain based protocol for "negotiation consensus" technologies that enable communications between IoT devices enabling them to carry out negotiations on peer-to-peer basis. For example, Railz can enable self-driving cars to negotiate trading of electricity at charging stations.

Railz Score Analysis

Railz aims to create a decentralized IOT communications protocol faster than existing protocols, with the additional and unique negotiation aspect. This is a new niche with few competitors, however Railz fails to explore this in their whitepaper. The CEO and Co-Founder are well-experienced, as well as the CTO and developers. The current roadmap demonstrates the protocol has only begun development in March - December 2018, aiming to implement the first version in November. With a well-experienced team, this product could be promising, but a lack of product development presents difficulty in analysis. The marketing team is experienced, with average levels of marketing efforts seen and a good response from the cryptocurrency community. Some other issues were touched upon in analysis: the hard cap is over 16 times the soft cap (6200 eth - 100,000 eth), 20% of the token allocation is reserved for the team, the whitepaper is lacking information, and there is a lack of discussion of regulation (a legal paper is currently unavailable but will be in future.

Railz Use of Token

RLZ is Railz's native token. RLZ is an Ethereum based ERC20 token. 500 million RLZ tokens will be offered for sale via the ICO, which correspond to 25% of the total token supply.
