Other than repeating phrases like AI, Deep Learning, and Blockchain, it’s really thin on how a public ledger is going to achieve any of this. Therefore, GliaLab is proud to announce that we are building GliaBase, a global diagnostic healthcare platform utilizing AI and blockchain technology to provide users with universal and safe remote access to next-gen diagnostic tools and advice. Essentially, it is a platform powered by deep learning algorithms where users have access to top-tier diagnostic tools and healthcare information related to different diseases. Yeeeaaaaah. How? There’s a lot of back-patting, some “imagine a world...” and just a dash of “Patients will... doctors will...” and zero specifics. Weasel words like “essentially” in front of a pat and low-content description of the actual platform also raises alarm bells for me. This reeks. Went to their site, and it seems the magic ingredient is that this is another ICO, complete with flashy splash page, and all of the usual red flags. They’re selling 30,000,000 GLIA (Gliatokens) which they assure you is a utility token. For something they haven’t built yet. The SEC is not going to be amused.

I do agree that there are a lot of buzz words involved, but if you actually talk to them, they have a decent team in place and they are one of a few legit startups that is doing a token sale. They are actually the only team I talked to thus far that told me to buy their tokens only if I want to use their product. Other people usually pitch me "XX returns on my investment". I might be participating in their token sale once they release more tech specs, so I talked to their CTO to learn more, and they do have a diagnostic demo with one algorithm related to breast cancer diagnosis. I am not a tech guy, so I was not able to judge the quality of the system, but their approach looks very interesting.

  Bullshit. This is an ICO off the back of people’s desire to fight cancer. No FDA approval, no actual system, no substance, just GLIA “utility” tokens. If they want to defend their approach with something substantial, I’ll retract the “bullshit,” but this looks like the usual ICO scam. I took the liberty of filling out complaints with the SEC, FDA, and FTC yesterday and hopefully they can get some real answers.
