Blockchain’s main advantage is the level of security it provides, which allowed for the uprise of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. However, the high value of popular crypto makes the blockchain ecosystem a big game for hackers, scammers and swindlers, making it ever more vulnerable. IAME aims to secure the identity of blockchain users.
The idea behind IAME is to allow for identity verification while keeping the data impossible to use by abusers. Instead of promising to make user identity hack-proof, they want to make it completely hack-worthless.
Key Features
Fragmentation
In order to prevent disclosing any non-relevant data to a counterparty through identification, IAME delegates the mapping functions to unrelated third-party validators. The relevant data is fragmented so that the fragments can be used by the validators not affiliated with any parties operating as members of the transaction for the sole possible purpose of confirmation. One such fragment is otherwise completely useless should it fall into the hands of an unauthorized person.
Identification
Although the data is fragmented and each of the fragments is confirmed separately, this allows for complete identification. The validations sum up into the whole to finalize the identification process.
Validation
The above-mentioned validators are independent users. The validation process is facilitated with a mobile app making it possible to go through within a simple and clear interface. The app users earn IAM tokens for completing validation tasks.
Roadmap
The road of IAME begins with the proof of concept in the first quarter of 2018. They have recently completed the development of the peer-to-peer payment system. The roadmap is an implementation plan with milestones scheduled through early 2020.
The private sale of IAME tokens has been live since April 18th and will close on May 20th. They plan to run the first pre-sale from June 6th through June 10th, which will be followed by the second pre-sale starting on June 20th and ending on June 24th. Finally, the IAME ICO is scheduled for the period between July 4th and August 24th.

Token Sale Summary
IAM Token Allocation
Use of Proceeds
The IAME team considers three scenarios of fund allocations depending on the results of token sales:
Following and Media Coverage
The IAME website features publications on ICObench, ICOholder, and TrackICO.
The IAME Twitter account has 5,216 followers, their Telegram group has 2,208 members, and their Facebook page is followed by 3,409 users.
Competition
Neither IAME whitepaper nor their Business Plan document describes their competitive environment. The latter, though, mentions the following features as a competitive advantage: Third-party validation; Outsourced KYC; Merchant adoption; Enterprise solution.
If you Google “identity security with blockchain” you will, at least, discover that Microsoft and IBM are working on similar solutions. We believe that IAME should outline how exactly theirs is going to be better.
Whitepaper and other documents
The IAME whitepaper is a 13-page explanation of the technology and ecosystem. The business vision of the team is presented on 20 pages of the Business Plan document. Both papers seem to provide information in simple, apprehensible language.
Conclusion
IAME is led by the experienced team. They seem to be moving quickly with development, as long as they have already presented an interactive prototype allowing any of their website visitors to see how the mobile application will work, even though the project was started only early this year. However, we would love to see a more detailed vision of how IAME is going to be competitive against similar projects, especially those by the likes of Microsoft and IBM. Another concern is the relative weakness of IAME’s presence on media and social platforms compared to that of other blockchain projects that have been worked on for the same time. However, this could be due to their focus on development.
