Exploring the ICO listing space has become a painstaking task of choosing from the diverse platforms that offer just that, an actual list with endless scrolling. TokenBubbles aims to change this. It is a unique platform, with an innovative user interface, filled with useful information from the crypto space. The goal is to bring ICOs closer to a meaningful audience group that exchanges relevant ICO news, comments and reviews behind them.

Why bubble chart diagrams you may ask? The original idea came from a desire to bring in an extra two dimensions to the representation of ICOs and their relevant relationships and inter-dependencies. Besides two extra dimensions (size and color) bubbles can position in the screen space to form different groups for easier navigation. People in general tend to visualize the importance of an object (in our case, ICOs) not by numbers but by size. Bubble charts gave us the added value for users to gain a better understanding of ICOs through size i.e. engagement. Bubbles facilitate the analysis of different ICO attributes like token type, rating, industry, ICO start date etc. allowing the user to see the full picture, across all dimensions.

TokenBubbles is a visually compelling and filter-friendly community based ICO listing platform.

The bubbles are used to quickly navigate through the packed world of ICOs, to see the “forest from the trees” in order to discover the best ICOs to focus your attention and potential investments on.

With it, one can easily monitor and follow the progress of tokens and ICOs quickly and efficiently with data-driven visualizations and a fast user interface to interact with community members in the pursuit for the right information.

Ratings and reviews are community based, so the more votes, positive comments and reviews an ICO has, the better the rating is. We want to encourage the community to get involved into the space and through joint action find the pros and cons of what is offered on the market each day.

Crypto-sphere path to self-regulation

With external factors threatening to bring enforced centralization and more stringent regulation into the crypto-space there is now a need, more than ever, to show that the community is more than able to self-regulate. It is fully knowledgeable and empowered to do so. It can deduce the good from the bad ICO projects and voice its opinions on the matter. The only thing it needs are more engaging and compelling tools to perform such an analysis.

The crypto sphere needs to work closer with regulators to help them better understand which ICO projects are legitimate. For example FINMA (Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority) stated at their latest round-table sessions, that every project will be dealt in a case-by-case manner, so it is essential for not only regulators, but also crypto projects to better understand the correct path of action to comply with regulators with respect to different jurisdiction, token functions and other crypto-company attributes.

ICOs should strive to ensure their projects comply with the current industry standards and in a decentralized investment environment, while the community which is now taking on the role of crowd-funding these projects, should also participate in evaluating and helping all the stakeholders, including companies and regulators.

Filters

TokenBubbles is elegant in exploring and pinpointing ICO preferences. The various filters allow us to sift through the sea of information. We can use filters for various token types, their jurisdictions, the phases of the project, but also community ratings, votes and overall feedback of the community on each token. A user can mix and match their preferences, according to their unique choices; they can sort by layout, color or size to fine tune the search for the ICOs they are interested in.

Using the personalised Dashboard

Through the user dashboard, a user can keep track of the followed and favored ICOs. They can be ICOs that the user is passionate about, wants to invest in or just keep track of their progress. Here they have quick access to all the relevant information. There is an added option to explore the ICO in full display, with one click.
