Gems ICO: Decentralized Mechanical Turk

What is Gems?

Gems is a decentralized platform for contracting workers to perform micro tasks – typically for companies. It’s a platform competing directly with the likes of Amazon Mechanical Turk and CrowdFlower.
Although both Amazon Mechanical Turk and CrowdFlower have been wildly successful with exponential revenue growth since their inception, they also have some key problems. Firstly, they charge high fees – in some cases up to 40%. Second, they require redundancy of tasks in order to achieve a sufficient level of trust in the completion of micro-tasks. Finally, these are centralized platforms – with all the problems that this entails.
Gems leverages the incentive mechanisms that blockchain technology enables, and in a clever way lets works stake tokens in order to prove validity of their tasks. This is a great example of how blockchain technology can solve the problem of trust between two parties.
The first main area that Gems is focusing on is labeling data for deep learning – a field within machine learning and artificial intelligence which has been hugely successful in advancing solutions for problems such as natural language processing and image recognition.

Who’s behind Gems?

Gems’ core team consists of brothers Rory and Kieran O’Reilly. Both are Harvard dropouts – Rory studied psychology and economics, while Kieran studied computer science. After dropping out of Harvard, they went on to found gifs.com – a popular website for making gifs. They’ve both been listed as “30 under 30” for consumer tech by Forbes. Furthermore, the O’Reilly brothers are Thiel Fellows. As you might know, another notable Thiel Fellow in the crypto space is Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin.
The advisor team has plenty of experience from well-known tech companies, as well as from crypto. Biz Stone brings his experience as co-founder of Twitter and Medium. Ben Maurer is co-founder of the by now ubiquitous reCAPTCHA, and he’s now at Facebook. In addition, Gems has three well-known crypto founders in their advisors team: Joey Krug (Augur; Pantera Capital), Luis Cuende (Aragon; Stampery), and Joe Urgo (district0x; Sourcerers).

What utility does the GEM token have?

According to Gems’ whitepaper, the GEM token has multiple utilities, the two most notable being:
  1. Off-chain micro payments on the platform between micro-task workers and companies
  2. Staking of tokens by workers to ensure trust in quality of micro-task completion

For instance, Workers asked to make it easier to locate and retrieve their Worker ID. To deal with this feedback, Mturk made the Worker ID completely available on every web page inside the top navigation bar. With one simple click on, Workers can reproduction their Worker ID to their clipboard to without difficulty get right of entry to and use it while running on HITs. Workers using “Your HITs Queue” desired an easier way to quickly work through all of the HITs of their Queue. So Mturk modified the website online go with the flow to routinely load the next HIT in the Queue after a HIT was completed. Workers additionally informed Mturk they want a better way to discover the status of their profits and submitted work. To deal with this, Mturk is excited to announce a newly redesigned Worker Dashboard & Status web page on the brand new Worker website.

Over 80% of Amazon Mechanical Turkers live outside the US has no direct deposit to bank option. Turkers get paid through Instant Amazon Gift Card Balance after working on HITS the earnings are not allowed to transfer into local currency. Even if they try to purchase something from amazon, they are not allowed to purchase from amazon's local marketplace. We have to purchase product only from amazon.com (To ship product from USA to india or any other country we have to pay huge delivery fee and import fee( For e.g If we have to order a product worth 20$ the total payment to be made is 45$ to 50$) almost 50% of the money is wasted. 
In-order to overcome the problem we have Purse and Unocoin which help translate Amazon gift card balances to bitcoin and Indian Rupees. Work on HITs to earn Amazon credit and then turn gift card balances into bitcoin and Rupees.
The conversion in bitcoin to rupees have only a minimum loss.
I will give an illustration with one of my transaction with purse and unocoin. So below are the steps to get start with
STEP : 1 : Create account with Purse  
I bought bitcoin worth 0.01166113 for 76.86$(Rs.4995/-), The bitcoin price when i bought was around Rs.4200/-  Loss is Rs.795/- (Its far better than what we pay for import and delivery fee)

Navigate to “Earn” and browse the available orders. 

click earn


Filter by Country and the Amount of Bitcoin you wish to buy.  

sort by country


Click on an order to preview, then select “Accept Offer”.

accept offer

Then, purchase the items on Amazon.

Click “Add wish list to cart” and the entire order will be automatically added to your Amazon cart.

Select the same shipping address highlighted during checkout.

After completing the purchase, copy and paste the Amazon Order ID and hit “submit” on Purse.


STEP : 2 : Create account with Unocoin

So now if you do not want to keep the bitcoin into purse wallet and to transfer the money directly to banks in india,first we have to create an account in the website unocoin
Then we have to transfer the bitcoin from purse to unocoin wallet (there will be a minimum bitcoin deduction as fee for the transfer) In my case the bitcoin which i got into unocoin wallet was 0.01041542 (i.e 0.01166113 to 0.01041542) so as of today if you can check the worth of my bitcoin it's Rs.4585/- so My net loss now is only Rs.310/- 


In unocoin we will have an option to transfer the money directly to local banks in india. Refer the above screenshot.

NOTE: If anyone requires help in doing the transaction to convert from Amazon gift card to Indian money, Kindly post your queries via comment or email us !!

Image result for dell emc hyper converged infrastructure
                     

                              The glamour news in data centres for the past couple of years has been all about all-flash arrays, with converged systems providing a growing backdrop. The flash arrays provided hot performance while converged systems (CI) led by Dell EMC's CPSD (Converged Platforms & Solutions Division – formerly VCE) and Cisco/NetApp's Flexpods provided traditional virtualised server, shared storage array and network systems in integrated racks of components. Customers took to these because they were simpler to order, deploy, operate and manage than buying the three groups of components themselves.In the background so-called hyper-converged infrastructure (HCI) systems were being developed, led by Nutanix and SimpliVity, that provided scale-out and virtualised server nodes with locally-attached storage and networking. Clusters of these nodes had a virtual SAN built from the component servers' locally-attached storage. The systems were ordered with single SKUs and made a virtue of being simpler and easier to order, deploy, operate and manage.VMware's VSAN became the default HCI storage and all the main server/storage system companies entered the market; Dell, EMC, HDS, HPE and IBM. This year hyper-converged emerged as "the" hot data centre topic, and we're taking a look at why, and how things might develop
