About Block GSCP
Blockshipping is creating the GSCP platform, which will be the first real-time registry of about 27 million container shipments worldwide and a shared platform for all players in the container shipping industry.
The GSCP platform will be based on modern blockchain and sensor technology, and has the potential to reduce costs for the global shipping industry up to USD 5.7 billion annually and reduce global CO2 emissions by more than 4.6 million tons annually.
GSCP ICO offers contributors to a unique set of token features including the benefits of the Revenue Sharing Model and Market Maker Fund that allows ICO contributors to sell their coins back to the platform at the lowest possible price.
The first ICO was based on a new Danish framework called The ICO 2.0 Framework.
Blockshipping GSCP ICO Pre-sale is now complete
The pre-sale CCC token as part of GSCP ICO Blockshipping ended yesterday. This marks the third week after the ICO Blockshipping is announced.
During these three weeks, the project has reached several important milestones.
Industrial Validation
It's very important for Blockshipping to ensure that the shipping industry will embrace the concept behind GSCP. In this case, we have exceeded our expectations. The attention, interest and acceptance of this industry is second to none. We will share the news about this dialogue as soon as we can.
Media and community
Starting from scratch, Blockshipping over the past three weeks built a powerful community with over 9,000 Telegram members, 7500+ Twitter followers, and 850,000+ tweet views. Blockshipping has been featured in media around the world in 100+ articles.
Ratings and ratings
Blockshipping has been reviewed by some ICO ranking sites (upcoming) and the results so far make a very clear conclusion that BlockOfipping ICO is at the top level in terms of quality.
• TrackICO: 5/5
• ICO Street: 4.8 / 5
• ICO Bench: 4.3 / 5
• ICO Marks: 7.8 / 10
Pre-sale results
One thing that did not benefit us during the last three weeks was the development in the market for the main cryptocurrency. This uncertainty, unfortunately, caused some of the larger contributors to withdraw their support in the last minute. We are still in dialogue with these potential contributors because nobody expressed any doubt about the viability of the project, and we look forward to bringing them back during public sale.
This cancellation makes us lose our pre-sale target, but that's to say, good pre-sale results:
Blockshipping has received orders totaling USD 2,010,000 from 480 contributors based in 57 countries!
The project is now continuing full-fledged towards public sales. We hope you are as excited as we are. If you miss pre-sales, do not sign up for our mailing list to receive news when we open a sales portal because you can start the registration process and KYC before public sale to make sure you're ready when the sale begins.
Blockshipping GSCP ICO (Initial Coin Offering) is open for public sale on Monday, May 14, and while the main focus is to achieve successful ICO, the Blockshipping team has also made significant progress on the product development side.
Delivering a Global Joint Container Platform on time as promised has top priority, and Blockshipping is now launching the first in a series of prototype videos demonstrating some of the services and platform functions that are being developed.
Along with the ICO preparation, Blockshipping works diligently to achieve the first milestone of the development of Global Shared Container Platform (GSCP).
When fully developed, the GSCP platform will include over 34 different products and services that are all related to the global handling of shipping containers to various partners of the shipping industry. But to allow future platform users and ICO contributors to visualize some of the services and functionality of the GSCP platform, Blockshipping is now generating a series of demonstration videos that are easy to understand.
The early prototype video launched today offers a glimpse into one of the earliest GSCP prototypes regarding the so-called 'turn way' method, also known as 'triangulation'. Due to the lack of a neutral road, a trusted platform, the opportunity cost savings for operators up to USD 750 million per year is not realized today and the GSCP platform will radically change that.
Road change strategy enables the container shipping industry to significantly improve the handling efficiency of empty shipping containers. And by utilizing the turnover method through GSCP platform users, it will be easy to find matching opportunities for the turn of the road, allowing empty containers to be moved directly from local recipients to local senders and thereby significantly reducing the number of truck trips to and from container terminals.
The first GSCP Blockshipping prototype video launched today can be viewed on the Blockshipping YouTube channel:
The first clients and promising partnerships are announced
Due to the fact that Blockshipping is focused on fulfilling development plans for the GSCP platform and since the acceptance of the GSCP platform in the shipping industry has so far been very positive, Blockshipping has been able to attract global container containers as the first customers and users of the GSCP platform. CEO of Blockshipping, Peter Ludvigsen said:
"I am very proud to say that a few days ago Blockshipping received confirmation from global container operators that they will join our GSCP platform as our first customer. It is an operator in the global rankings of 10-20 which has also confirmed that they will join our Customer advisory boards. "
Peter Ludvigsen underlines that having the first GSCP customer on board already at this early stage is crucial as well for the credibility and trust required for Blockshipping to attract ICO contributors and complete successful ICOs.
"I truly believe that people can see for themselves that Blockshipping will fulfill every promise and develop a truly revolutionary global platform that will greatly benefit both the shipping industry, the global environment and the contributors who bought our CCC token during ICO."
Blockshipping Solution
The Scandinavian Blockshipping Company creates a Joint Blockage-Based Joint Container (GSCP) Platform. This will be the first real-time registration for around 27 million container shipments worldwide. Furthermore, GSCP will become an integrated platform for all players in the container shipping industry to improve the handling efficiency of various transactions related to container shipments worldwide.
The GSCP platform will be based on modern blockchain and sensor technology, and has the potential to reduce costs for the global shipping industry up to USD 5.7 billion annually and reduce global CO2 emissions by more than 4.6 million tons annually.
The BlockShipping GSCP platform has been funded by private angels and The Danish Maritime Foundation. However, to accelerate development, ICO pre-sales are held from April 15, to be followed by public ICO starting May 14th.
With the positive sentiment surrounding Blockshipping and the GSCP platform since the announcement of the sales crowd, Blockshipping anticipates the sale of a very successful token. At the same time, ICO offers a one-time opportunity for participants to engage themselves in solving real-world problems in key industry segments, potentially becoming one of the best crypto investments of the year.
Global Media Attention
Since the project was announced, it has received a lot of positive media coverage. Awareness began in Denmark in early March and spread throughout the world in no time. More than 100 articles have been published in leading international media so far.
In addition to media attention, the project has succeeded in attracting large communities. For example, there are more than 10,000 Telegram members and nearly 8,000 followers on Twitter. The pages on LinkedIn, Facebook and Medium have received thousands of views as well.

Big industry interest - announced the first client:
The positive ratings and the tremendous interest of the community and the media have strongly supported Blockshipping's strong belief in the vast potential of the Global Joint Container Platform.
But more important is the positive interest that Blockshipping received from the shipping industry. CEO of Blockshipping, Peter Ludvigsen, explains:
"Traditionally, the shipping industry has a reputation for being somewhat conservative, but what I have experienced since the announcement of our GSCP project is anything but a traditional push for new business ideas. It's like a series of positive dialogue with major players from all fields in the container shipping industry. "
"I am very proud to say that a few days ago Blockshipping received confirmation from global container operators that they will join our GSCP platform as our first customer. It is an operator in the global rankings of 10-20 which has also confirmed that they will join our Customer advisory boards. "
ICO first based on ICO 2.0 Framework
ICO Blockshipping is not only the first ICO-related delivery of Scandinavia. It is also the first ICO to be based on a new Danish framework called The ICO 2.0 Framework, which will be launched within the next two months.
The objective of the upcoming ICO 2.0 Framework is to improve the quality standards for ICO ensuring that future Danish ICO:
1. 100% in accordance with Danish law
2. aiming at the highest standards in terms of security and coding quality
3. promote openness, transparency, and honesty
4. Follow a strict code of ethics when it comes to communication and relationship management with ICO stakeholders.

The role of container registration in the shipping industry?
Currently there is no central container registry in the shipping industry. Each Container Carrier (eg Maersk Trail, Hapag Lloyd, CMA-CG etc.) and Global Leasing Company each manage their own container inventory in their back-end system.
Large container shipping companies are fierce competitors and they do not want any Container Carrier to make a profit by creating a centralized container database. At the same time, these container operators almost all operate with losses or with very small Ebitda which means that no one has a desire to start a major IT investment.
In general, rear container equipment systems on container ships are very outdated (between 30 and 45 years old) with very expensive old interfaces. Many operators have transferred maintenance of this old container control system to Joint Service Centers in India, PRC, and the Philippines and this makes it even more difficult to modernize and replace this system.
In Blockshipping with the development of the Global Joint Container Platform, we create distributed distributed Blockchain container registers where container owners (Container Carriers and Global Container Leasing companies) will be able to share each other's containers.
The main method of exchanging information about container activities in the shipping industry is through something called Electronic Data Interchange (EDI). People have been talking about EDI deaths over the past 20 years, but because of the challenges mentioned above, I would say that about 85% to 90% of the container-related information exchanges happen through EDI.
Value of connecting Carrier and TOS ERP System with First and Last Mile Actor
The Global Shared Container Platform (GSCP) includes the Integration Platform as a Service (iPaaS) which will increase the transmission speed of container activity information and help the shipping industry move toward the use of modern APIs and Web Services replacing EDI.
Will the company be audited, and will its accounts be issued annually?
Blockshipping is a Danish company and currently has a limited liability form called Anpartsselskab (ApS). ApS is what you usually start as an entrepreneur in Denmark. Our legal counsel, Moallem Weitemeyer Bendtsen, changed the legal entity of Blockshipping from becoming ApS to Aktieselskab (A / S). This process will be completed ahead of ICO sales on April 15th.
Under Danish company law, A / S has higher capital requirements, and is required to have a Board and certified auditors should be formally appointed.
What is the current status of GSCP backend powering software?
We are finalizing the GSCP prototype in early April. At the same time, we are in the process of completion of the requirements specification for products that are eligible to Phase 1 Minimum. The target architecture of the GSCP Platform will also be completed in April where we will make decisions on which Blockchain technology and cloud platform will choose.
Our CTO is already there and we have set up three potential software development vendors that will enable us to launch 4 or 5 parallel tracks of software product development.
