ViValid is a service that can help you assess the worth of your valuables in a fully objective and professional way. The treasures you have found, the valuables you collect, and even the things hiding in your garage and basement, such as limited-edition sneakers, can make you a sound profit if properly evaluated. Normally, you would have to either do extensive research - which won't guarantee you reliable results - or turn to a random pawn shop owner, who obviously has an interest in offering a lower price than you deserve. ViValid removes such obstacles. Our system is community driven and therefore stripped of potential ulterior motives. You only need to take pictures of your valuables and send them to ViValid for a preliminary assessment and validation of their potential value. Your query requires only one small fee. You will receive competent and objective opinions from several experts and collectors for a fraction of the usual cost of such services. Evaluators will be randomly but intelligently selected from members of the ViValid community to provide you with a truly independent assessment of your collectibles. In addition, our – “Proof of Validation Protocol” will ensure that the evaluation you receive is reliable.
Additionally, ViValid opens an opportunity to create the first decentralized, immutable, and, therefore, trustworthy, community-driven ledger of collectibles that contains the history of their value and ownership changes.
We also offer you the unique opportunity to earn money while doing something you love by becoming one of our validators. If you are a passionate collector who knows a thing or two about your field of interest, we want to hear from you. You can start as a first-tier validator, and progress through five tiers, with each subsequent tier more exclusive than the previous. If you are correct in assessing the worth of presented valuables over time, you will be promoted to the second and third tiers. The first three levels are community driven and anonymous whereas the fourth and fifth tiers are exclusive and only for proven experts. The higher you are on the ladder, the more you can earn and the less you will have to work.
ViValid is a highly advanced service built on blockchain technology, where all transactions are performed in ViV tokens. This eliminates the costs of exchange rate differences, expensive banking services, and the need for transfers between countries. As soon as you register, you are provided with a crypto wallet that stores ViV tokens. Your tokens will allow you to maintain the price of the service at a constant and unchanging level despite the variability of token pricing. We do not require that you have any prior knowledge of how the market of cryptocurrencies works. ViValid is an integrated micro-exchange that automatically removes all the inconveniences of dealing with crypto. If you want to have an object evaluated, simply – use either PayPal or your credit card, and we'll do the rest. You no longer have to search through guides, look for Internet auctions, or visit experts. ViValid is a completely transparent service with traceable contracts that can be reviewed at any time.
We have based the foundation of our system on three tenets that are deeply ingrained in our internal culture :
(_First, we trust, then verify_)
We recognize that the success or even usability of a proposed system must be based on trust and transparency. Potential factors such as ulterior motives, biases, or ignorance expressed by any party would nullify the validity of the service. Therefore, we developed the Proof of Validation (PoV) protocol, which ensures the best possible outcome by using the principles of the "wisdom of the crowds", i.e., the statistics and miracles of blockchain technology.
ViValid is a technology that allows large masses to interact democratically while remaining independent and decentralized. A solution like that is unique and provides an innovative approach.
(_Do what you can to make life easier_)
Time is a precious commodity. Literally. The attention span shortens while the flood of information increases rapidly in this day and age. ViValid understands this and puts much effort into matching user experiences with the challenges of emerging technologies.
For example, current solutions try to introduce a new economy based on utility tokens but are inevitably faced with the hurdle of money exchange.
In most cases, otherwise valid and exciting solutions built on blockchain, require users to understand advanced issues from the outset. For example, the cryptocurrency market works by creating accounts on foreign exchanges, generating wallets, transferring money, purchasing tokens, and transferring them to the registered account within a service. All that knowledge is required before even deciding whether the solution solves the problem or not. ViValid shortens the path of entry by integrating a micro-exchange that automatically removes all the inconveniences of dealing with crypto. If you want to put an object up for valuation, just use your PayPal account or credit card, and we'll do the rest for you. Of course, it is an optional function, and users maintain control to buy and use tokens in a traditional way.
(_Reward excellence_)
As a ViValid user, you may want to share your knowledge both for fun and for recognition. There is nothing wrong with that. Being compensated for a willingness to share your knowledge is completely justified. The ViValid service introduces a new form of mining to the cryptocurrency community -- the mining of minds. Every single person has accumulated knowledge that may be in demand on the free market. The ViValid service introduces the opportunity to monetize gained knowledge. Whether assessing the value of collectible items is your full-time job, or you are a passionate amateur, ViValid pays for your expertise. More accurately, you assess the market value of the items in the system, and the higher the tier you work from, the higher your stake. You may hold the tokens as an investment or liquidate them straight away - either way, we're here to help you.
We believe that the usefulness and transparency of our solution will spawn credibility among the collector community, leading to the ViValid brand being commonly recognized as a guarantor of validity among collectibles.
The other substantial market segment covers comic books. The most well-known and expensive is Action Comics No. #1, published in 1938 and sold for 1.4 million USD. However, the old comics are not the only expensive ones. New releases of The Walking Dead No. #1 from 2003 are worth 11,000 USD.
Some 1980s video games can reach up to 40,000 USD, e.g., Stadium Events, released in 1987. Games from the 1990s that are rising in value include Super Copa and Nintendo Campus Challenge.
ViValid offers a transparent and accurate service to the memorabilia-collector community, in which the risk of fraud is ever-present. To the unsuspecting buyer, an autograph could be forged, or an ordinary item can be substituted for a rare one. ViValid validation increases consumer confidence, which leads to higher prices.
Another 1 billion USD collectibles market is vinyl records, 40 million units of which are expected to be sold in 2018. The rising interest in vinyl records has increased demand for collectible vintage pressings. The market value of vinyl records depends on the album, special features, rarity, and condition. Because the value of a particular record is tied to so many factors, it is difficult to determine the value unless you are an expert in that area. Again, ViValid opens new avenues for accurate price validation based on community reviews.
The last example, with a market value of 400 million USD per year, is Hot Wheels. If you're lucky, your Hot Wheels cars may be worth more than actual automobiles. A pink Hot Wheels 1969 Rear-Load Beach Bomb Volkswagen – currently is valued at 100,000 USD.
Other branches of collectibles include art, jewelery, and other valuables, estimated to total 1 trillion USD in annual sales. Art and antique sales in 2016 in Europe totaled 20 billion USD, including public and private sales, with the Americas at 15 billion and Asia at 10 billion. The growth in the market is a natural reaction to the cultural and societal changes fueled by the economic conditions.
The graph below represents the most prominent numbers for annual collectibles spending in billions of USD.
One of the reports from Unity Marketing from October 2000, based on its regular omnibus questionnaire, said, “Some 42.9 million U.S. households, that is, 42% of total households, report that someone in their household collects any collectible item, according to Unity Marketing’s latest consumer survey. With an average of 1.7 individual collectors living in each collecting household, the total number of U.S. collectors is estimated at 72.9 million — about 35% of the total U.S. population!”.
The Internet has spurred invaluable growth and evolution of collectibles. First, it is reducing the transaction cost for many collectibles, a trend that likely will apply to very expensive categories. Second, the Internet provides an opportunity for direct contact between collectors in most areas, which can lead to private sales. Online sales of art and other collectibles grow 15% a year, and this is steady growth.
has been designed to serve two primary purposes.
Firstly, it provides means to distribute validation and valuation jobs within the decentralized blockchain-based network and ensures token flow between users of the system.
Secondly, the intrinsic algorithm governs neutrality and accuracy of validators' responses, paving the fundament of trust on which any system of similar kind must be built upon. Combination of statistical data and incentivizing model of different tiers of validation lies in the heart of the system. On one side, the system automatically analyses the expert's valuations looking for discrepancies, and on the other, it rewards validators with the highest success rates by providing the chance to upgrade an account to the higher tier.
