RE: APPICS ICO Starts In 3 Days | KYC Now Open | APPICS on Cointelegraph!

First, good luck with the oncoming ICO. I am currently evaluating an investment in the coming days. What's not so clear to me is: how is Appics different than Steem? What are the things you think you'll be better at than Steem? So far, after a fast read of your whitepaper I have to admit that I do not see a big difference. Maybe you have the time to shed some light on this questions. Cheers!

these are the main differences between APPICS and Steemit :

• APPICS will be a mobile application, while steemit is browser based. The app will be focused on simplicity and user experience.
• APPICS is focused on visual content like photos and videos, while steemit is focused on text (blogposts)
• APPICS will have a system with 15 different content categories, ranging from fashion to sports to technology, while content on steemit is only organized in tags
• For every category, there will be a team of judges. Those judges are social media influencers and experts in their field. These judges will have a large voting weight and will be able to reward excellent content in their category.
  On steemit, the ones with the large vorting weight are the whales - these are investors / private users who just vote at random.
• APPICS will have an integrated shop system where merchants can offer services and users can buy products with their XAP tokens

Thanks for the explanation. So, I get Appics will be more organized and focused than Steemit and is going to deliver a simpler, more user-friendly experience. Sounds good to me, I am going to try it happily.

On merchants..
What businesses?
Will you target big business?
Or only small businesses and freelance merchants?
