According to the Dragonchain site, roughly 30,521 ether and 622.47 bitcoin were contributed during the two-stage token sale, which began with a pre-sale in August and ended with the conclusion of a public sale that concluded earlier this week. The pre-sale itself raised approximately $1.4 million (152.25 BTC and 2357.53 ETH). In statements, representatives for the firm said that the funding will go toward development as well as establishing a market for the firm's Dragon token. "Our goal was to determine market price of a Dragon and raise enough to deliver our roadmap," CEO Joe Roets told CoinDesk in an email. |
