We talk to Nikolai about his motives on being Bountie’s advisor and his thoughts on ICO.

Why do you wish to be our advisor?

I checked out the Bountie project and the company’s white paper. I liked the idea.

I have not been a gamer for a long time, but my children are gamers. I have always disapproved of my children’s hobbies since they are wasting their time.

However, when the leaders of Bountie from Asia came out to me and offered to become an advisor in their project, I immediately said “BINGO!” Bountie’s upcoming idea and platform will make every gamer receive money for playing their favourite games.

This is what parents and the children of today need nowadays. The gaming community and market numbers are huge and have huge potential. I gladly joined the Bountie project with honour so that I can lend my relevant expertise to make their vision a reality. The future is now!

What is it you like about the ICO and cryptocurrency scene?

I like the fact that the ICO and cryptocurrency world is limitless. Any person can find a potentially strong project and invest, say, US$10 into it and vice versa.

An inventor with a creative and useful idea shouldn’t be a millionaire in order to launch an outstanding project. Thanks to ICO and cryptocurrencies, there is a higher chance for the world to notice amazing projects and ideas. This is the sort of evolution it will go through, just like the internet some time ago.

What makes a successful ICO or a successful crypto company? How can you tell a good ICO from a bad ICO?

In order for an ICO or cryptocurrency project to become successful, it should meet the following criteria:

• A big team that with a great deal of experience.
• The product’s relevance.
• A decent marketing budget.
• Strong experts and advisors which have dealt with various ICOs before.
• An abundance of road shows and events.
• A well-made advertisement and SMM.
• Publication & support on every possible platform like PC and/or mobile.
• Maximum transparency.

A combination of these can make or break a project. Bad projects usually lack some of these, sometimes even a big part involving said criteria. As a result, it’s easy to tell if a project is bad, at least based on my experience.

Thank you, Nikolay Shkilev, for your helpful advice. To find out more about our company, visit our website.
