Eventum - First Mover Advantage

What is Eventum and what is the first mover advantage, and how do they fit together? Eventum is a decentralized real world data feed platform currently being launched, which utilizes the popular blockchain technology. The lifeblood of Eventum is the crowd consensus being used, making data feeds more trust worthy and reliable.

But Andy, isn't there news channels and social media platforms that already have reliable data feeds of current and past events? What makes Eventum different? Well, unlike news channels and those other platforms, Eventum ensures the accuracy of your feeds through crowd consensus before publishing it. News articles, contests, events etc are all verified through this crowd consensus before a platform user is exposed to it. This is sure to decrease all the FUD (fear, uncertainty and despair) that users are accustomed to in recent times.

Crowd consensus is the sourcing of the truth from multiple data sources before publishing, thus increasing the accuracy.
So what is first mover advantage? First mover advantage is the ability to capitalize on being the first within a given space at implementing and executing. Early adopters of the social media platform Instagram took a chance on Instagram and they got first mover advantage.

The early adopters who took a risk then, now have massive followings on Instagram. They are able to leverage this huge following into different revenue streams all because they were the first to use the platform and grow their following. If someone was to start an Instagram account today, it'd be pretty hard work to get to a million followers.

So how can you get first mover advantage in the Eventum platform. While the platform will not be released to the public until the 4rd quarter of 2018, you can sign up to the token crowsale for EVT tokens, and/ or join the Alpha to earn both EVT tokens and ETH. Signing up now would give you tokens at a lower cost than buying when the platform is released and the tokens are on the exchanges. This is the absolute best first mover advantage you can get.

To further capitalize on the first mover advantage, you need to sign up to the platform to be notified of the events that are being scheduled and launched as time goes on. Trust me, there are going to be lots of events. And the more events you partake in as a user, the better you'll be at answering the questions in the event and the greater chance you'd have of placing higher within the consensus. Thus guaranteeing more rewards.

As a developer looking to gather data on your topic, you should be familiarizing yourself with how the developer side of Eventum works, and also participating in other events as a user to better understand how you'd be collecting data.

Users can turn the Eventum platform into a career. With rewards being paid out for every event as long as you're in the consensus, you're guaranteed to be earning lots of ETV tokens when participating in events. And furthermore, most events only take a few minutes to complete. You can surely participate in minimum 5 events per day when Eventum scales, and turn this into your full time career. And even better, you can participate in the events from anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet connection.

As a developer, you can design events for customers on the Eventum platform. You can also provide consultation for events and get paid in EVT tokens for your time. Furthermore, as a developer, you can't participate in your event, but why not participate in another developer's event as a user, thus earning EVT tokens.

Early adopters have the chance to be paid more EVT tokens since they'll be the first on the platform, entering events and participating in a consensus with less participants.

First Movers on the Eventum platform will definetly have a head start and benefit the most compared to late adopters for the same reasons that first movers on other platforms are dominating on their respective platforms currently. Since everyone prefers reliable data, adoption is inevitable.

Will you be an early adopter and reap the benefits or a late adopter and try to catch up?
