Since they originally appeared almost 11 years ago, cryptocurrencies have been promising a change that would make the world a better place for everyone. They offer a number of benefits over traditional finances, including lower transaction fees, decentralization, as well as the ability to reach everyone, whether or not they have access to the bank.
With their ultimate, worldwide reach and the fact that no single entity can control them, the crypto trend spread around the world, and countless projects have emerged since then. While many of them did try to bring a positive change, many others were only after the money. A big portion of them turned out to be a scam, which led to a regulatory crackdown on token sales.
However, even after all of these, and many other issues — the crypto trend still lives, and it still dreams of a better future. Even the ICO model still persists, despite the fact that there are alternatives, which are generally considered to be safer for the projects and investors alike. In fact, one project that aims to deliver a new type of convenient marketplace is currently in the process of holding its own ICO, and its name is 2local.
2local is a blockchain-based platform that will provide a convenient marketplace for consumers that wish to connect with their favorite companies. This will allow them to directly purchase locally-produced, sustainable goods, as well as local services. The platform's goal is to encourage sustainability and bring prosperity to the world.
The project's team stated that they dream of a better future, but instead of waiting for it to arrive — they have decided to make it a reality themselves. Through their platform, they aim to eliminate injustice, inequality, and other social issues. Meanwhile, they are after delivering sustainability through the use of natural resources.
They also believe that there is a place for everyone in the worldwide economy of the future, although they believe that it must be more local and less hectic.
Of course, the project does not expect to create a utopian economy, meaning that they are aware of the limits that even the most successful projects have to face. However, they will still try to help create an economy that takes into account everyone, from all circles of modern society. All that they require to start is their native cryptocurrency — the one that is in its preICO stage of distribution at this very moment.
As mentioned, 2Local is in its preICO stage, which started only a few days ago, on October 1st. PreICO will last until the end of the month, and it will be replaced by the ICO itself, which is scheduled to start on November 1st. After that, the ICO will last for 30 days, until the end of November.
The token sale will offer 2Local's native cryptocurrency, L2L, which is a utility developed on Stellar's platform. The token's price will be $0.00031233 per 1 L2L. So far, the project did not announce which coins can be used to purchase L2L, although XLM is probably a safe bet. The project also features a bounty and an MVP.
The project was registered in the Netherlands, and it has several restricted areas, including the US, Canada, Bolivia, Iran, Algeria, Egypt, Nepal, Morocco, the UAE, and Pakistan. Others are allowed to join the token sale, provided that they go through a KYC procedure.

Oh my, here is another startup that intends to make the "world a better place." We have already seen so many of them rise briefly above the surface only to get to an even deeper bottom of insignificancy. Besides, the concept offered by 2Local is flawed at its core since they intend to narrow the audience to "locals" instead of trying to go global. The 2Local app would be suitable only for those who reside in big megapolises, and could be rendered virtually useless for those from small towns.
It is funny how a mediocre blockchain project managed to stuff so many socialistic slogans in their presentation. Let's be frank, 2Local doesn't offer anything out of the ordinary: just another blockchain-based platform/application that provides means for connecting with local stores and services provides in order to obtain some perks, bonuses, cashback, etc. We've seen it a dozen times before. However, the 2Local team wrapped it all up is some utopian marketing messages which made their entire presentation appear very lame and unnatural.
So far, the project has received ratings that are slightly above average, meaning that it sounds rather decent, overall. However, there is still a lot of information that is missing, and that the team should update as soon as possible, and definitely before the ICO itself starts. The team is also pretty large, although it does lack advisors, which might be something that they should look into, as well.
