Too big, good luck sir

Hi there,

We made our calculations based on the industry size and our ability to scale
the coverage of SLOGN platform and therefore SLOGN Coin through own solutions and partner integrations.
Logistics is huge industry with multiple types of players on the market.

I would love to discuss more doing comparison with any other coin on the market for sake of finding the truth and best approaches together.
I would ask you to shoot your favourite coin for comparison lol :)

Hey guys, check out this video.:)

Here's SLOGN platform explained by one of the founders

hi, if need Chinese translation let me know, I will also maintain Chinese thread with updates and replies. I can also start threads in other Chinese websites on this topic. please PM if interested.

Hi everyone thanks for great support and love we are receiving from you.

We have published official trailer explaining the industry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRRO2HEspXE

Seems like they have a very private ICO, I haven't seen that advertised much and their email says it's gonna be mostly distributed among private lists of contributors.

very useful information
happy to know this, thanks

Yes, it's true

Agree, very Convincingly.

Is there a strategy update for this coin?
this looks like a nice project, lets hope the team and the devs stay on top of things and make sure everything runs smoothly!   best wishes!     

Great,
One more crucial and important project here, Transportation is the heart to drive the economics  of the world.
Hope the project will be success.

SLOGN having some interest http://www.prweb.com/releases/2017/07/prweb14506175.htm

I like the team, they seem to be capable  ;)

SLOGN to reserve $10 Million For Open Source Contributors

 ;) ;) ;) ;)
Our goal is to build the industry standard for everyone who wants to develop their app or widget for logistics.
No company in the world can do this for logistics without involvement of software community. Therefore we will put ~$10M into Open Source Tournament fund to select best companies to contribute to the platform.

The app you would build would instantly receive access to millions of potential users across logistics industry.

We receive a lot of SUPPORT AND LOVE and it helps us stay super efficient on marketing. We didn’t start to use our bounty fund for marketing and will divert into software development.
List of Selection Hackathons
“Driver Mobile Wallet and Virtual Assistant” on September 22nd in San Francisco,
“Open API Platform & Basic Dashboard” on December 1st in New York,
“Smart Contract Wizard” on March 16th, 2018 in Berlin,
“Escrow / Instant Pay System” on June 15th, 2018 in Toronto, and
“Machine Learning Platform” on September 7th, 2018 in Lviv.

That's Awesome 8) I think this is a great opportunity for developers to contribute to and enhance logistics as they see it.

Promising goal
This is a good news

Not too many ICOs from Silicon Valley but how would U.S citizen contribute screenshot from whitepaper about Bridge18

If still need Spanish translation, PM me

It's interesting

Great technology stack
https://www.slogn.net/technology

This is a little suspicious. I see  so many newcomers come and bump up this thread which always said positive response. Is that your team dev? or this is
a joke dream thread?  ;D

Good point about newcomers.
No no team members here, we are all busy with many things on the project.
Hope to have a lot of conversations with senior members once we get to scaling the team, discussing collaboration with other blockchain projects.

I agree :) But let see ;)

awesome design.. i like it  8) 8) 8)

Hi all. I participated in Pre ICO today. This is my first ICO so I am clueless on how to collect my solgn tokens. The ICO sheet doesn't gives steps. They gave great instructions on how to send them eth though, lol. I am using the latest parity wallet. I started googling and found some articles about watching tokens but I'm not sure if that's what I need to do. I saw on blockchain that they sent me my slogn tokens and my wallet is listed as the token holder which makes sense. My thing is how do I get those slogn tokens into my parity wallet and back them up. I think I'm good on the ICO process, it's just that last part of getting the tokens. Any help or links would be most welcomed.

thanks for the help.

Dear Logannj, thank you for your contribution!
We will publish the instruction shortly here, at slogn.net/ico and on our social networks / blogs.
Feel free to reach out to us personally when/if you need.

Sincerely Ihor Pidruchny

thanks for the reply. I hope you post instructions for parity today so I can send more eth coins. I only sent .25 as a test and I am holding off on sending more until I can figure out how to collect coins. Obviously, I prefer to send my coins during this Pre-ICO.

thanks again and I'll be checking ico page.

Thank you Logannj! Parity instruction to go out shortly.

I see you updated page. I'll try when I get home from work. To be honest, I'm sure that's all the info needed for someone that has collected tokens before. I'll probably end up going back to google tonight. I know everyone on your side must be super busy but I hope you guys post some detailed instructions before the official ICO.  Maybe get one of your workers to install a few wallets and write up on whole ICO process or at least on collecting the coins. I think it will help ICO by making the process as simple as possible for the investors. Not just for you to get ETH but for investor to get their tokens. Anyway, I'll give it another shot tonight and hopefully I will be able to figure it out before PRE-ICO ends. Otherwise, I'll just stay with tokens I have whenever I figure out how to collect them.  thanks.

So many logistics based projects in the market it making me confuse to pick the right one for invest. All have talented people in team with huge potential so how to verify about them. Anybody can explain about them?

Thanks for your support Logannj, the full instruction is underway.

Logistics is just sooo huge I believe there'll be place for several projects.
As far as we know we are the main one for U.S trucking industry which by itself is $800 billion industry.
Here are the key numbers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRRO2HEspXE
Govind Singh, business strategy, explains it better here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gzKKsqGlp6E
We are not the only one with the same idea. Influential personalities and teams are approaching us now willing to unite efforts to build software together and this has been our goal - to unite community around the problem that exists in trucking.

The way how we came to blockchain was natural - we kept digging looking for technology that we thought would be the right fit for us. It was evolution from SPA + RESTFul backend to Microservices with Kafka, then we turned down entity-oriented frameworks and equipped ourselves with event sourcing and CQRS, and eventually blockchain being in a way the distributed event-sourcing system.

Our key vision is that it is impossible to build solution for trucking industry alone, therefore we are working on the platform that will be available for everyone to build on top. Our white paper sheds the light about how we see the [Suspicious link removed]ponent.

I hope I was able to answer your question, it is a pleasure to receive mature and deep questions!

I read the whitepaper. It is mainly describing technically what SLOGN want to create but I am not getting the link to logistics.

1. How do they want to create the events? Shall the driver use a mobile phone and key it in?

2. In the whitepaper "Artificial Intelligence on the GO" is mentioned. How shall this work? SLOGN is talking about "Pluggable components" - shall these components deliver the power to have artificial intelligence?

that is huge number ..

why pre-ico end datetime is removed from website? it was 19 july 2PM around on site yesterday.

1. Events to be generated on lightweight nodes which are parts of user applications, including driver.
2. Artificial intelligence and heuristics is mostly used for resources optimization within the company and between the companies. It is basing on many domain opportunities such as: full truck load can be split into smaller commodities and that trailers can be switched between trucks in the middle of the route.

Looks good, will keep an eye on this one  :)

it was removed by mistake of internal team communication. it is reverted back
The end of the preICO is Wed July 19 2017 2:59:59 PM GMT and we will announce the results shortly.

PreICO Results

ATTENTION — OUR PREICO IS OVER. PLEASE DO NOT SEND ANY MORE CONTRIBUTION TRANSACTIONS.

We would like to thank you for your participation. Your contributions are very inspiring!
We DID NOT reach a minimum of 1,000 ETH. PLEASE REFUND your ETH contributions following instructions below.

How to refund your ETH
Generate transaction with:
0 (ZERO) ETH
to the address 0xc0506ceb264b057182a4c3ab8a0b910a545479f0.
IMPORTANT: (1) Set data to 0x590e1ae3;
Set Gas limit to: 50,000 (Fifty Thousand Gas).
IMPORTANT: MYETHERWALLET.COM can throw red warning message:
”Could not estimate gas. There are not enough funds in the account, or the receiving contract address would throw an error. Feel free to manually set the gas and proceed. The error message upon sending may be more informative.” That is expected behavior. You will need to set gas price manually as described in the previous message.

SLOGN Initial Coin Offering Is Deferred

Thank you for participation in our pre-ICO and interest to the project! We received many inquiries for business partnerships, software development and media coverage and are going to proceed with the project implementation and deployment in the U.S trucking industry.
We anticipate to run the ICO in the future.

For any inquiries please e-mail us at info@slogn.net as well as on any of our official social media channels.

OK, that make sense.
Regarding #2: Then you would also be able to implement some kind of Freight exchange where trucking companies can offer freight capacities in order to maximize their load.

In one video you mentioned that in the US you also have several small companies. We have the same problem here in Germany where you have SME's where the boss himself drives the truck while he is booking the next order. So, there a no IT departments which can develop or maintain any software solution. So, any leightweight solution could help here.

Of course, there are several logistics projects going on - but logistics is a huge field. I.e. Maersk is running a project (using hyperledger), but they are (as far as I know) mainly focussing on shipping lines incl. pre- and postcarriage on containerised cargo and containerised cargo is a different field.

Hi there, exactly!

When are you going to launch the ICO?
