Questions Asked on Twitter For Opher Team!
Q1. Partnership plays a very important role behind the success of every project. Could you please share us with the latest partnership of Opherio ecosystem, also What are the benefits we can expect from this partnership?
Ans — We truly believe that partnership is crucial to the growth of Opher, and it’s important to look for the right partners that would benefit both parties, We have made great partnerships that our community will be excited about, and which we will announce very soon on our website and social media channels, and we are currently discussing our project with many others, so stay tuned!
Q2. How can I get notified from Opher? Can I add my favorite e-commerce website to Opher? Or I can access only those which is listed on Opher? Also is it possible to buy a product from Opher?
Ans — After you build an account and start subscribing to the channels you want to remain linked to, you are automatically notified by Opher. We believe that Opher would have hundreds of partners in our network from various retailers, brands, and websites, but, of course, you will not receive any of these alerts, only the ones you have shown interest in and have gladly followed. And No, you cant buy a product from Opher.
Q3. What does the Opher name stand for? There are interesting stories behind every successful project, and of course you have to work hard ever day. Can you share one of these interesting stories with us?
Ans — Interesting question, the idea popped into my mind when I was annoyed by some emails piling up my inbox, check this deal and that, and most of these websites running those deals are not of my interest, knowing how it’s a hectic job to look through every store or eCommerce website to check out their news and deals, I thought to myself, why not create an app, where it could be a one-stop place for all the brands, stores, sites and platforms where they could share their news and alert its users with their deals, AND send it to the right audience as they are ready to check out what they’ve got in the store since they have voluntarily chosen to stay updated with specific stores and brands.
This is the idea that is being implemented and is soon to be launched to benefit everyone, A deal alert app that can notify you about the latest deals and offers in restaurants, shopping malls, platforms, e-commerce stores, and so on. The app should allow you to select the categories from which you want to receive deal alerts making it easier to connect with your favorite brands without any fuss!
Q4. Push notifications are a golden ticket for some brands, but sometimes they get to be annoying if don’t get to the right audience, how does Opher makes sure the notifications goes to the perfect people?
Ans — It’s almost unavoidable, I suppose, that brands will come to notice the high push notification engagement rates, and then thoroughly overdo the strategy until they annoy their audiences and compel them to turn off push notifications.
But as for Opher, bear in mind that the audience has willingly downloaded the app, and is ready to receive notifications from their favorite stores to which they have subscribed, as long as we don’t misuse this push-notifications special feature, by sending them out to every store’s subscribers only, instead of sending a mass bulk of notifications randomly to all our users.
Q5. The liquidity of a project is what investors are interested in. How will you solve the liquidity problem of Hayek Money ? Do you have plans to list on major exchanges like Binance or Houbi?
Ans — We have decided to maximize our liquidity to the extreme, by keeping all the money received from the token sale in locked liquidity, to ensure the success of the project and the happiness of our investors.
