Tigereum is different because we will target users who are not into crypto yet but want to be. We will help bring the average person into crypto by developing smooth customer solutions which are more like the ones they use everyday on social media. Digital wallets are great for early adopters, and also for large crypto transfers where security is particularly important.  However the average non-crypto person is struggling to enter the crypto world because user interfaces are difficult for them. Our community needs to develop more user-friendly customer interfaces if we want cryptocurrencies to become  mainstream (which we do). Tigereum will enable new crypto users to send small amounts of crypto in an instant message on their preferred social media channels like they share photos with their friends. This will help to grow the crypto pie.   

Hello everyone

My name is Darren (www.linkedin.com/in/darrenolneyfraser) and I am CEO of the Tigereum Project. I am an experienced company director and investor.   I have been a company director on about 50 boards, including 6 listed companies. I practiced law for 20 years (was Partner in a global law firm), and have been CEO of a listed funds management company for 10 years. I raised and profitably deployed over $200,000,000 over the last 15 years. This time I am raising about $15m in a Token Swap (founder lock-up included) and I would like to share it with you. We are developing a sweet solution to send crypto by instant message on social media platforms!

I would like to start this announcement thread by thanking this wonderful community which I have been following and educating myself with. I am proud to have finally opened a user account here. I always promised myself I will do so once I will have something real to contribute back.
 
Tigereum is an innovative decentralized messaging bot to securely message crypto to friends and family on instant messaging platforms. Our primary aim is to provide a secure alternative for cryptoholders to message crypto to their friends and family, so that they do not have to convert to fiat simply to message funds easily and for free. Our secondary aim is to build on all the benefits of crypto to make messaging crypto a better and more secure solution for messaging funds, especially across international borders.

Tigereum believes that crypto developers should be able to provide a better solution for messaging money than social media companies, big banks and international remitters. Crypto already has the answers to a decentralized, borderless, secure, digital, global currency which can be messaged around to anyone, anywhere.  Crypto’s competitive advantages should make messaging money cheaper and easier for everyone.  Crypto community should jump on the IM paradigm shift, and not leave messaging money to the social media companies. Tigereum will faithfully adopt the key principles of the crypto world: decentralization, encryption, security, anonymity and community.

Due-Diligence Cooperation

As I am very aware of the (rightful) level of paranoia here, I would like to keep things transparent and simple. I will expose everything in advance and also encourage potential participants to DD myself personally and the Tigereum project as a whole. In fact, I would like to cooperate and help you as much as I can in order to avoid unpleasant/unnecessary situations.

Due-Diligence FAQ

Q     What problem is Tigereum fixing?
A     There’s no way to message crypto in an instant message
 
Q     What’s the solution?
A      Use an AI chatbot to message crypto on all instant messaging platforms

Q     How will Tigereum Tokens be used in this solution?
A      Tigereum Tokens will be the internal cryptocurrency for Tigereum’s instant messaging solution

Q     What blockchain will Tigereum Tokens use?
A      Ethereum ERC-20 smart contracts will be used to create Tigereum Tokens

A      40,000,000

Q     How many Tigereum Tokens do I get for my ETH?

Q      How will you use the ETH swapped for Tigereum Tokens?
A      Your ETH will be used to fund Tigereum’s decentralized crypto messaging bot development, go-to-market, and for a treasury float

Q     Do I have to register for the 33% First Day Bonus?
A     It’s not compulsory to pre-register for the 33% First Day Bonus (available on opening on 8 December 2017), but its best to make sure you don’t miss out

Q     What bonuses are you giving to Pre-swap Participants?
A.     Pre-swap participants will get a special bonus, and priority access to buybacks. Pre-swaps must be agreed before 20 November because that’s when the Smart Contracts will be released.  Contact me if you are interested.
 
Q     Why would I want to send crypto by instant message, because I just use my digital wallet?
A     Indeed, you can send crypto from your digital wallet now. But respectfully, digital wallets are for early adopters not the average person.  To become mainstream, crypto needs to deliver customer experiences which the average person can use, and which can interchange more easily with fiat.

A     Tigereum will exchange your crypto into your friend’s preferred currency when they redeem their funds.  This can occur at their cost without any hassle to you at the time you message your crypto.

Q     Which social media platforms would I be able to use Tigereum on to message crypto?
A     We will make it possible for you to message crypto on all major social media platforms.   Tigereum’s solution is flexible, globally scalable, independent of any one social media platform, which means we can be quick to market.

Q     Will Tigereum’s messaging bot be secure on social media platforms?
A     Tigereum will keep faith with the expectations of the crypto community by combining the best security features of encryption, blockchain, anonymity, crypto wallets and crypto exchanges into our solution architecture, so that messaging crypto is as secure as your digital wallet. We appreciate that many people in this community do not use traditional social media like Facebook, however many other people still do.

Q      Did you write your prototype bot code?
A      No, I do not write code.  However, a prototype bot is being built to test our proposition in a simple and effective way until we complete the Token Swap and can begin a fully funded development.

Q      How can I test your prototype?
A      Only pre-swap participants will receive a personal invitation to test the prototype

Q     What is Tigereum’s business model?
A     Tigereum will earn its revenues from payments flowing across our bot platform. Based on existing price points, Tigereum expects gross margins in the range of 2-5%.
