Hey Everyone,

Although Sparkster was started in 2014, I recently heard about it from Ian Balina on one of his recent AMA (Ask Me Anything) videos. Since this is a high speed platform based project, a lot of people are interested in it.

I think this is an interesting project because they want everyday internet users to be able to create programs using plain English. In other words, you would not need to learn a programming language! Want to know more? Here is a direct link to their website explaining how it works! https://sparkster.me/tech/. The idea is to visually connect ideas together while their open source software writes the code behind the scenes. This is comparable to building a website on platforms like Wix, where all you do is drag and drop blocks and images, and design your page visually.

In addition, to spread the word, Sparkster has created an awards system, where you can earn Sparkster tokens by letting people know about the company, and referring people. There are many ways to get involved. Please see this link: https://earn.sparkster.me/Rewards/index.html

One interesting feature of this company is that their product will not only support Ethereum Smart Contracts, but will also support IOTA! I believe this can lead to many clever innovations from anyone around the world. The technology allows for a Raspberry Pi to interact with your data. For more information on a Raspberry Pi, check out this Everipedia page: https://everipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi/

They have locations in the United Kingdom, United States, and India.

Quick Specs

Token: Utility
Type: Platform, Infrastructure
Speed (Transactions per second): As of June 4th, 2018, they have successfully reached 52,963. Over time, the goal is 10 million.
Main Net: Yes. This is scheduled for 2018, Q4 (Currently SPARK is an ERC20 token)
Total Supply: 290,000,000

Road Map (Highlights)

This is a highlight of what I think are the most important events coming up. For the full road map, please visit their main site.
2018 Q2: Launch of Sparkster Marketplace
2018 Q3: Public release of mobile app supporting sensory input (GPS, gyroscope, accelerometer, (and more) from mobile phones.
2018: Q4: Public alpha release of Sparkster Decentralized Cloud
2019: Q1: Launch of codeless Data Warehousing and Analytics platform for Enterprise customers.

(I think one of the most interested features will be the Decentralized Cloud. This has many benefits compared to centralized cloud platforms on the market from Amazon, or Google.)

Interoperability

Sparkster will also have multi-chain interoperability, which will allow the chain to communicate with other blockchains. This is a major advantage over other blockchain platforms that will not, or cannot, support interoperability. For more information on interoperability, here is a great Everipedia article: https://everipedia.org/wiki/Interoperability/

Team and Advisors

Taking a look at their team, you will be very impressed. Core team members have very extensive, and solid backgrounds. I have reviewed each one of their Linked In profiles, and I believe this is a strong team that will be able to deliver on their promises. For more information on their team, I would recommend their website: https://sparkster.me/?#Team

Overall, I believe this project is under the radar, and will only continue to grow and build momentum.
