Sandblock is creating a decentralised protocol to connect brands and customers together using Smart Contracts.
We are also developing a mobile application (alpha coming in a few days) for customers and a dashboard and analytics platform for businesses.
Each business creates its own Branded token on top of the Satisfaction token (SAT) and can give it as a reward to its customers for their loyalty, feedback (reviews, surveys...) or engagement (contests, games...). By joining the ecosystem, businesses have access to tons of analytics about their customers across all merchants.
Branded tokens are tradable with each other at a one to one ratio, they can also be converted to SAT for other use but this induces a 50% loss of the underlying value.

Fan Controlled Football League
Expected to kick off in 2018, the Fan-Controlled Football League (FCFL) reimagines American football – and the experience of being a die-hard fan – for the digital age. The FCFL will seek to deliver a compelling football product that captivates a broader digital audience. It will feature fast-paced, high-scoring action that embraces the spread-football evolution of the NCAA football and NFL games while enabling a diverse set of styles and strategies on both offense and defense ─ all controlled by the fans. Player personnel and real-time play calling decisions are all made by fans via the league’s blockchain platform, making fans the coach and general manager for their team. Fans will no longer be just viewers; rather, they will be active contributors to the games they are watching. This is a transformational shift in the way sports fans engage and interact: no more sitting back and passively watching as a team’s roster takes shape or a game unfolds. They will be essential to the league’s product both on the field and off. This is the democratization of sports, and it’s about to be realized through the most innovative sports league ever created, thanks to decentralized blockchain technology.

BlockStorage
BlockStorage is a protocol built to connect and abstract all communications with the blockchain, simplifying the user’s life. The current state of cloud storage, with dozens of reports of security issues, the overall perception of lack of privacy, along with the usual high monthly fees calls for a new kind of storage service, one that guarantees data privacy at lower (or no) costs. From those concerns, we envisioned BlockStorage, a storage protocol based on the principles of ease of use and privacy. Built with the casual user in mind, it allows anyone to store and recover any type of file on any existing blockchain, without cost (besides the transaction fee to store the file). BlockStorage leverages blockchain technology to ensure the safest and most transparent storage experience. Our protocol allows users to seamlessly upload files to the blockchain of their choice while taking care of the data encryption and the respective blockchain protocol. And, because of the inherent nature of blockchains, it assures that the data will never be lost. In short, it will store the files for life without any recurring costs.

ReverseDAO
ReverseDAO is a solution to all of the problems above; it is a platform that connects the Metaverse with real-world assets. Fiat and economic units that are bound with world assets can now be represented, stored, and transferred onto the blockchain just as easily as cryptocurrencies.
