Companies invest in any asset that provide increased earnings, so it’s understandable that most businesses are heavily invested in data as it can provide development of new, successful product. As more companies are taking a more scientific approach to deciding which products should be developed, a data boom is taking place. Any sort of boom usually involves money, and where there’s money, there’s Wall Street hands involved.

In fact, Wall Street is so interested in the data market that there’s a dedicated index tracking the performance of data firms. There’s a even an exchange-traded fund for investing in a basket of data firms. The major banks clearly see a massive potential in this market and have invested heavily in this market.

You Can’t Sit with Them

The major problem with the investment in data firms is that the vast portion of them are still quite small and are not part of the ETF available to the public. Only accredited investors are able to participate in the investments for potentially market changing data-oriented start-ups.

The personal data market is massive and is continuously growing as globalization demands more and more companies to have a greater idea of more and more types of people. Most of the investments in companies participating in the personal data market are off-limits to everyday people. This means investment banks, high net worth individuals, and major private funds are the only ones able to make investments in companies that could be the next market leaders in the personal data market.

But one of the main goals of the blockchain movement is to decentralize opportunity, and that means ICOs provide an opportunity to everyone to invest. Opiria is about to launch its public token sale soon and everyone will have the opportunity to invest in a market that Wall Street has such a strong focus on.

As Tall as the Big Guys

Opiria offers a marketplace where anyone can sell their personal data to any company. This allows Opiria to potentially become the primary source of personal data on any category of individuals.

Since Opiria is running a public token sale, anyone who has had an interest in investing in the data market now has an opportunity to invest in a market where traditionally the big guys have control of all the investment opportunities. Interesting, Opiria is offering investment opportunity in the data market to all at a scale that is rare even in the ICO market: Opiria has not minimum investment requirement as you can buy just 1 token (which is valued at 10 cents).

And in order to ensure everyone gets an opportunity to participate, the first 4 hours of the public sale have an individual investment cap of just 1 ETH. This shows that Opiria’s team wants to ensure anyone who has wanted to directly invest in the data market can now do so.

Major financial institutions are heavily invested in the data market. Now, any individual who has wanted to match heads against them has the opportunity to do so. The sale of PDATA tokens, the native currency of Opiria’s personal data marketplace, begins on May 1st.
