Could you ever imagine that when the first iPhone was introduced to the world, users could utilize only 15 apps in it, from mail to settings? Everything was that easy. All these apps entitled people to arrange their lives on the move, making the communication easier, and even directing users in life. And the music collection seemed to be a soundtrack to the new digital life. Nowadays, there are apps for everything. Did you know that iOS apps developers earned over $70 billion during the last decade?

However, modern app world isn’t hassle-free today. Despite all the popularity of entertainment and games, the majority of users reject paying for apps, and that’s the reason for most apps to be free nowadays. The adoption of new apps is hindered a lot by the steps necessary for using native apps. As a result, most of the iPhone users set up a very small amount of apps for their daily usage, less than 5. Lots of the apps are maintained by ads. Most of the developers working outside of large corporations have faced a problem when the initial model of paying money for buying an app is totally dead.

Another problem is each of the apps requires a separate login, passwords, and credit cards, and the cards have a tendency to expire, logins have to be reset after the worker leaves the company, and it’s necessary to apply to the customer support. Besides, the apps are very expensive. And there is a risk that the app team shuts down when running out of funds. After that, people have just 60 days for downloading all the data entered into the app. Thus, the competitive market is not coordinated yet, what is very expensive and problematic for the end users.

With the occurrence of blockchain and decentralized apps, the overall situation was only irritated. The users now have to cope with the supply of utility tokens. Majority of the modern generation interfaces for decentralized apps work as the independent web apps interacting with a blockchain through the plugins browser or menu bar software. The users mostly can open only one app at a time. Such decentralized apps are very powerful. A perfect decentralized app would be Etherum-powered and would have multiple approaches to the user interface and various levels of P2P demands. Even the pickiest app user would find it much more helpful than managing 15 various subscriptions.

Cardstack layer is going to give a totally new experience to its users. They will be able to arrange and manage their collaboration through the apps they utilize, decentralized ones. The users will enter the age of decentralized technologies in an open ecosystem. That ecosystem will be adopted by the mass market actually, moving to the decentralization based on blockchain. Decentralized protocols will manage the software, used by people globally. CARD tokens are such smart contracts running that ecosystem. What advantages does that platform give to users? They are able to match and mix lots of apps features without subscribing the cloud or utility tokens. Designing great new workflows is another advantage of Cardstack. It means that users will be able to join different Internet layers services. At the same time, all the users’ data are totally independent.

The main idea of such a decentralized experience is that users will be able to begin, manage, and make decisions on transactions, coordinated locally via logical mechanisms or even through the cloud-based market creators. The Internet is now based around the user, the cloud services are connected with blockchain, and progressive decentralization is possible. 100% open source things are available for the developers and they are able to be refunded for material costs. Moreover, that all gives them an opportunity to develop cool, powerful, and expandable apps. Meanwhile, the end users mix and match various cloud apps and even dApps. Cardstack Hub allows making new combinations of apps along with using just one token and fiat currency without crypto expertise. The analytic miners can also enjoy the advantages of the platform, while they can protect the system against spam, abusive actors or outliers. They can also earn their fees as well, while the tokens can be hold or circulated back into the system. Such compensation allows preventing single parties from controlling the reward function.

Project Team:

The Card token sale is projected for the first quarter of the year 2018, the contribution method is ETH. Cardstack excludes the contribution from the USA, Noth Korea, Cuba, and Iran. The type is ERC20 on Ethereum.
