BIRDCHAIN (Global Decentralized Instant Messaging APP)
hi warm regards today i want introduce to you about birdchain project birdchain very usefull to messages to local or business
What is an A2P SMS?
A2P SMS stands for Application-to-person SMS. There are two types of A2P SMS.
Transactional - These are the A2P SMS sent for two-factor-authentication, One-time passwords sent by Social media platforms eg: Google and Facebook. Booking confirmations sent by Airlines. One-time passwords sent by financial services.
Promotional - These are the A2P SMS sent for promoting products or sale, advertising by e-commerce companies like Amazon, H&M.
Okay, how does Business send Transactional and Promotional A2P SMS to users?
Through SMS Aggregators companies.
Aggregators are the bridge between Businesses who WANT to send SMSs and Operators who CAN send SMSs.
They have contracts with many Operators.
They manage the SMS traffic.
Sounds straightforward, right?
Not so in the real world
Problems with A2P SMS market
From the above picture you can see how complicated the A2P SMS architecture is.
The global players monopolize the markets and set their own SMS prices.
To reduce prices aggregators started sending SMSs through other aggregators.
This resulted in many SMS aggregators, sometimes the messages get trapped in a loop and never gets delivered.
If you are a new company, it is impossible to enter the market because it is competitive and needs a lot investment.
Businesses who wants to use A2P SMS aggregators are looking for transparency and reduced prices
Alright, if the A2P SMS industry is complicated why use them?
SMS is platform independent, network independent, app independent and geographically independent.
SMS is the cheapest and effective way to reach customers.
98% of people read SMS with 3minutes from receiving it.
SMS is the preferred method for two-factor-authentication

We as People use Facebook messenger, telegram and WhatsApp to send messages to our family and friends. We don't use SMS as often as we do 5years back but still Operators include limitless amount of SMS messages to our mobile plans for which we pay every month, a service which we do not use.

SWOT analysis
Token
Token - BIRD
Businesses will use BIRD tokens to place bid on their SMS campaigns.
The tokens will be frozen until the SMS has been delivered to the Users.
Birdchain will minus their commission price from the tokens and pay Birdchain app users with BIRD tokens.
ICO details
Their Pre-ICO starts on Jan 18th https://www.birdchain.io/
My Thoughts:
Birdchain seems like a novel idea. Unlike other ICOs where the team doesn't have much experience, Birdchain team has 10years of experience in A2P SMS market.
Through their platform there are solving problems for Business who needs cheap SMS marketing campaigns and People who can sell their unused SMS.
Birdchain estimates 30-300USD as earning per month depending on how many SMS messages has been sold. However, this is not guaranteed by Birdchain.
Birchain growth depends on how widely people use the Birdchain App and Business who wants to send SMS campaigns. They already have customers through their existing A2P SMS market company called VertexSMS https://www.vertexsms.com/, so IMO it shouldn't be a problem.
I will definitely be using the Birdchain app, once it is released so I could earn some extra cash.

=============
What does Birdchain offer? Birdchain offers solutions for companies to be able to reduce the cost of sending SMS messages while sharing profits with others. Although in general almost everyone has an unlimited SMS package, but certainly almost no one will spend it as a whole. Birdchain offers to transfer the unused SMS as a corporate message, thereby earning some money.
The only way a user should do is to simply download the Birdchain app. The next will be done automatically by the application. Based on this Birdchain project, Birdchain application owners, who have transferred the unused SMS messages, will earn approximately 30 - 300 euros per month. Quite tempting too is not it? Market Potential Written in their White Peper, Birdchain states that the global market for A2P SMS is currently worth about 60 billion dollars, and every year it grows up to 4-5 percent from the rest.
Potential Clients The Birdchain service is b2b, so their customers are companies that want to send messages via SMS. Generally companies will find it difficult and time consuming enough to be able to sell goods to customers, especially for companies based online application services. Companies like Uber, Amazon, Airbnb, or Google will not purchase the service directly from any A2P SMS service provider.
Instead, they use the auction. In this auction, will be based on the principle of the company that has requested through a platform, to send SMS with a certain amount and at a cost of approximately 0.0x euros per SMS. All A2P SMS vendors who participate in such platforms offer their respective prices.
Vendors offering the lowest price will win, and the companies that use the vendor's services are then used to send messages to their clients. So what does this mean for Birdchain? We can see above, that basically the company does not have a close partnership with SMS A2P service provider because the most cared for is the lowest price. So Birdchain, with the lowest possible price in the market, will be able to collect and serve all such SMS traffic. In my opinion, it is a big advantage, because it will make it easier to find customers.
Competitors In this case, as it is found in any business, competitors will be categorized in two ways: directly and indirectly. All current active A2P SMS service providers can be categorized as direct competitors. Over time, will leave some A2P companies that can compete with Birdchain, because of course it is not easy.
Birdchain with a good concept, confident enough to compete with competitors. ICO Birdchain The ICO Birdchain begins on November 18, 2017, and will expire on 31 December 2017. Birdchain targets to collect 86,000 Ether (worth approximately 25.8 million USD) by selling 4.6 billion BIRD tokens. This BIRD Token, made for use when ordering SMS messages.
Companies wishing to send SMS via the Birdchain platform must purchase a BIRD token through the Birdchain Stock Exchange or directly on the Birdchain website. All transactions will be done using BIRD. Although the number of funding targets for this project is quite large, it should be remembered that it is the beginning which will give big profit in the next three years. Birdchain will also distribute approximately 46,000 ether (approximately 13.8 million USD) in the form of BIRD tokens to big companies to be able to pull them into this platform. About The Birdchain Team As mentioned earlier, that their team in this project is quite interesting.
For about ten years, vertexsms.com has also been trying to do what Birdchain is trying to strive for - against expensive A2P SMS. More experience in this segment becomes a big plus, not to mention the fact that over time, they also learn to cooperate and receive new knowledge from their mistakes so far. Usually I look skeptically at the big advisory teams, because it looks like a marketing trick to attract more money through ICO. But in this case, I would rather believe that by collecting 26 million USD to be able to launch a multinational company, it would actually require some quite influential advisers. In this case, there has been one blockchain specialist who has entered in the Birdchain team.
