IceBreakerAR is a new type of social media app. As its name would suggest, it serves as a means to ‘break the ice’.
By providing users with an intuitive and engaging platform, IceBreakerAR can alleviate the oft felt anxiety in making new connections. Whether these connections are through dating, networking, or just like-minded individuals, IceBreakerAR will be there to help.
Making New Connections
Users will be able to generate an avatar of themselves within the platform. After inputting skillsets, traits, and desires, matches will be made based upon what is being looked for. A match can be made when users scan their environment. Upon doing so, the seeker will see their environment augmented with avatars of their potential matches.
For those looking to network, they simply need to input their intentions (seeking vs. offering). They will then be matched with an appropriate user. This leads to a more efficient use of time, as pre-set filters for needed skillsets remove inappropriate matches. It allows for networking to take place between individuals that offer what the other needs.
ICE Tokens
The entire system will be tokenized through the implementation of the ICE token. This will utilize a POS protocol, and offer various features to users. Those looking to spruce up their avatars, can use ICE tokens to purchase ‘upgrades’. Those that network often, and have built a strong reputation, will be able to charge for their time. For any holder of ICE, they will be able to stake their tokens for a passive return on investment.
In addition to offering the ability to tokenize their platform, blockchain technology is being used to ensure the safety of user data. There have been many breaches in the past with companies in a variety of industries. IceBreakerAR is being proactive by using cryptographic security measures for any stored data.
The platform will also see partnerships formed with a variety of retailers. Users of the platform will be able to use their phones as a ‘window’ into the digital world, and see ads and discounts overlaid on the real world. When passing by a Starbucks, simply pull up the app and look through your phone to see any active deals. Retailers benefit through the increased foot traffic, while the users benefit from discounts received.
Future Plans
To fund their venture, IceBreakerAR is hosting an upcoming ICO. This will aid in the initial distribution of their native ICE tokens. In addition, it will raise the necessary funds to ensure that development continues untethered.
