hey guys, after i saw there are questions that keep repeating on itself i decided to sum it up and answer it here.

  1. how did you come to this idea?

answer: i (yonatan) was a crypto fund manager for 2 years and one day it wasn’t enough satisfied for me . so i looked what kind of change can i make in the world . and use the crypto world to make it happen.

so i decided i want to help people create a bonds with others , since the community have to get this power i created a system that enable people to be rewarded for forming matches with others , and that is how matchpool was born.

2. who is the team behind it:

we are a mix team of a world dating expert, crypto veterans and programmers that want to create the relationship game changer .

our team assembled from the following people :

3. how that pool are working?

pool is like a slack group with payment rules ! the pool owner is the admin and pick his business model and terms and condition of who this pool is for etc..

4.who are the participants:

we have a joiner and a matchmaker.(user and admin)

every pool is around a subject- it can be a place/interest or what ever else we will choose .

joiner is a participants that care about the same thing and want to get matched , inside this pool they can get matched , come to events around the specific subject and more .

matchmaker is the group admin that make matches and control the group.

4. what is the business models the matchmakers can choose from ?

There are 3 3 business models they can choose from:

  1. Entrance fee
  2. Subscription fee
  3. Payment for a service -like an introduction or a event introduction

5. What are divs and arrows-

That is the mechanism that enable joiner to make money from matches , after a regular user make a match he is entitled to part of the subscription fee that was accumulated in the group.

6. What is the dynamics in the pool-

So it’s changing from one pool to another , every pool have different rules that represent the human dynamics of this group, however -the pool have a similar dynamic to slack . with the most important feature which is to make matches

6. What is dapplets-

Head ons that give you more functionality to the pool: new business model, ui,games etc.. the developers that create it are also being compensated

7. How do we planning to market it ?

Our first pools will be our pools , after we will prove the model it will be viral because people will tell other people about it and every pool founder will market it to his community which already trust him in the real world.

The offer to the matchmaker- you can monetize your community by your own rules

tokens:

8. What the tokens will be using for :

First — they will be used to open a pool. Pool is free but required to put tokens in smart contract so as long as there will be more pools there will be less tokens in the system — thats how we connect the value of the token to the value of the network

Second: paying for all the matchmaker services: matches, subscription and entrance fee.

9. How can a users get tokens ?

So the users can earn tokens by 2 ways :

  1. To buy it- we will deliver a way to buy the tokens through paypal
  2. To earn it- females will earn a tokens by joining and all the users will be able to earn tokens by making matches between pool members
