Introduction video: View it here
Okay, let's just stop there for a second. We have the Co-Founder, Audrius Kučinskas, talking about carVertical. If you have ever watched a cryptocurrency introduction video then you should know that the use of proper english is professional. Using "pissed off" in the intro which is supposed to promote your project is a complete turndown for potential investors. Personally I can't take this dude for full. I get that you guys are a young and hip project team, but you guys have investors who are just not into all that.
Nevertheless, the rest of the video explained basically what purpose carVertical has and the presentation of the project was solid.

As of right now, carVertical consists of 14 team members who each have an individual and specific job to do in the project.
After checking the legitimate state of their profiles via LinkedIn, i can truly say that they all have experience in their jobs.
