Can you actually directly connect your bank account to your platform? Or how do those fiat money transfers work if someone wants to make use of that function?

Yes, we ll add this option in e-Chat after basic promisses  Wink

Can you quickly explain what that will look like from an architectural perspective?

Why does this have a marketcap of only 1M? Whats the problem here?

While you consider it a problem, others consider it an opportunity Wink

You could say that, and what is the true value of this coin?

I think that is always difficult to say because most of the time there is an endless of features planned to be implemented but not yet functional. It's mostly a bet on promises in crypto. I don't know what the "real" value is. The market decides what the real value is. And right now it decided it is not that high. You can of course come to a different conclusion and bet against the market.

I've been thinking about the risk/return side a little more. By investing in REAL, you're buying into EU real estate (although we don't really know what country for sure). It also sounds like it'll likely be hotel investments. Let's put aside the possibility that they are actually just going to sell you a property they already own.

Holding on to tokens is therefore a hedge against crypto investments. Essentially you're saying you'd rather sell some of your cryptos, convert it to fiat (Euros) and buy real estate. You're betting that the 12% - 20% returns they are targeting is better than you can earn in cryptos on a risk-adjusted basis.

Assuming they will be buying hotel assets, it's likely a bet on the economy (although we don't know which one). Most hotels either target business travelers or tourists, but both depend on a strong economy. So, in order for your investment to do well, the dependant economy has to do well.

It sounds like you won't have to buy into each investment they propose, but since they didn't raise that much money, I don't know how many choices you'll have. If you don't like their first investment, you can hold onto your REAL tokens instead of buying RPPs, but then you're not earning a return on your money, so it's just tied up.

Of course, if the Euro isn't your local currency, then you're you're taking that currency risk as well.

I know nobody asked the question, but I find this ICO fascinating and it's helping me become a better ICO investor as I think about what I'd REALLY be buying into.

Your analyses are always top notch. Maybe you should start an ICO analysis and rating service Wink

when do u think XVG will seriously start going up?

alts go down when bitcoin rises, they tend to go back up when bitcoin goes down or stabilizes.


so basically it's so difficult  Smiley

I agree with Dogedarkdev. It is how he said. I am wondering why not everybody by now understands that pattern. It is always the same. Just expect alts to drop when BTC is rising / about to rise.
Because its easier to ask when moon then think with own head Grin Gotta say i am curious what wraith will bring us,recall that name from sg atlantis Smiley

I am not sure if I understand correctly what you are trying to say. Could you rephrase that again?

Happy to see how hard you guys have been working. This was one of my favorite VR projects and I've been following you since you first launched. I haven't been too impressed with the VR projects in the space so far, and I am hoping this one is able to become something big. Look forward to trying out the alpha once that is released. I'll stay tuned in here for more updates.

Thank you for the support! We are doing all of this work to be different. We want to set the standard in everything we do, both in crypto and in VR.

Thanks, I'm interested in what you are doing on the VR side in particular though. What are some of the things that the Alpha will include? Will it be available on the Oculus store or Steam?

We do plan to develop a full VR app for all of the relevant platform app stores: PS, Oculus, Rift, and Steam. This app will not be available for the this first Alpha release, but you can 100% expect it in the future.

As for what we are doing on the VR side, the Spectiv VR Alpha V1 will be a fully functional VR streaming platform that will allow users to upload content, view content, create channels/accounts, subscribe, and more. This Alpha V1 will be technologically advanced by industry standards, supporting Rift / Vive VR viewing directly through web browser. This is a feature that is limited based on a browser to browser basis, but it is currently available with Mozilla and we expect Chrome to be available shortly. This is all in addition to our desktop and mobile headset functionalities. We have partnered with several VR content producers who will be porting a wide selection of quality content to this Alpha, and we are excited to share these experiences with our supporters.

I look forward to be being able to use the app in the Oculus store, that would be a pretty big achievement. I've test the Vibehub platform a little, so I'm curious to see how you guys build your VR environment and app. Also definitely excited to be able to enjoy VR in my browser without having to use Bigscreen or something else. It seems like the delay was a good choice, I'll stay active here and will definitely participate in the token sale. I wish I would have known about the pre-sale though...

A really awesome project over here. Have been visiting the thread from time to time and I am quite sure that this will go places. Hard work and good work. All the best for you guys!

Where are we currently at in terms of raised amount of money?

The ICO raised just over 37k ETH, which would be around $11 million.

Wow, that is a huge bag of money. Excited about what you are going to pull off with it!
Yeah but you do realize that only 51% will go towards the project. They will only buy property with 51% of the money and keep the rest.

To be honest I am not fully aware of that. They simply keep the rest? I mean, they use it for operational costs and stuff. They need to finance the operations apart from buying property itself.
BonTon, REAL was the reason why I joined this forum. I'm not a bitpro, however I try to get the knowledge regarding crypto.
To make it short. From what I understood it's common to give 20% to developers. On top they decided to have 29% to their disposal. Just in case there was a need for that tokens.
If I get you right, what you mean by finanacing the properties is the maintanance costs eg. keeping management, keeping housekeepers and so on. I tried to get an answer whether that was included in their 20% goal, but I got no answer. So I guess 20% was.. undescribable. I tend to believe, that Melissa as beautiful as she is, was to short to understand it.
To answer your question straight: read the white paper. It's all there.

I went through the whitepaper again and this is my understanding:

* 20% of tokens are for the team
* 51% of the tokens were sold to contributors during the ICO.
* 29% is being reserved for a future sale, although it looks like a small portion may be offered to "partners" (see page 32). So, together with the 51% above, around 80% should be available for investment LESS $8 million reserved for 5 years of operating expenses (this is the Core Budget that was referenced).

Typically, with institutional investments, you'd expect the following, but it shouldn't be surprising that REAL fees are higher since they are a smaller platform. That said, the essence of how it works should still be fair to investors.

Management fees: 1.5% - 2.0% of invested equity annually. Let's work backwards to see how much they can support. If $8 million is supposed to last 5 years, that's $1.6 million per year. Using the 2% of equity rule, that should support $80 million of investable capital (including the 29% that's being held in reserve). They have raised $11 million so far.

Incentive fees: Typically 20% over a return hurdle. Since they are targeting returns of 12% - 20%, you'd probably expect a 7% - 8% return hurdle (let's say 7%). This means that the team shouldn't take a portion of the profits until investors have earned 7%. After that point, investors should receive 80% and the team should receive 20%. Again, this is from an institutional perspective.

I've seen there be no hurdles, where the team starts earning a percentage of any profit. So once investors get their money back, there's an 80/20 split. However, the REAL team is taking 20% right off the bat, from day 1. Yes, there's a lockup period and they are being paid in REAL tokens, but they are still guaranteed this payment. This is extremely egregious in my opinion.

Panorama is on point here. Very well explained. Thanks for doing that!

Sorry guys but for me this crypto is soo way overvaluated. I can see much anonymous cryptocurrencies arround so the competition is hard and cant see Verge edge..
Monero, Zcash, Pivx, DeepOnion, hard to keep up IMO

Why come to this thread just to say that? If you don't want to invest in something that is fine, your choice, but to bash something just for the sake of it is ridiculous. It is not overvalued in the slightest, it is way undervalued when you compare XVG to the other privacy coins. You mention DeepOnion but that is new, XVG has been around for far longer. Most of those crytocurrencies you mention should be keeping up with XVG, not the other way around. Your comment suggests other projects are better or have been around longer, which is far from the truth. It has not taken off as well as people hoped just yet, but anything can happen and big things are yet to come. The dev is very active and XVG has a huge community. It has already been successful in its own right.

Well said. But you find these people visiting other threads just to bash way too often. Sadly, it's part of the game (and of human nature I guess...)

it's always "new" accounts too lol

as if they dont have a bunch of other accounts on here..  Roll Eyes

Yes it is extremely annoying. I often times wish there was some verification method or something where you get a special sign added to your account that you are verified.

I remitted money from wallet to cryptopia, but unify does not put on money
Status: 2421 confirmations Date: 2017/10/15 20:02 To: UZNPKzjcr5Zy4yL6r8sP1cLNeuHXNzchDU Debit: -17 953.3018425 UNIFY Net amount: -17 953.3018425 UNIFY Transaction ID: b6667357da3fc02c71209b1347599d1d4bbb6fa7d3b2a45da2154d1bdd4faf63

Cryptopia wallets have been in maintainence for a couple days as far as I know. They needed to resync with the blockchain.

I checked your transaction in the blockchain. Your funds are in your Cryptopia wallet. You should be able to access your coins when they're finished.

But should that really take them days to get the wallet back up? What kind of issue do they have?

496  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN]Stox - Prediction market platform | Token sale has ended on: October 14, 2017, 01:35:17 PM
there is  good news for Stox on this voile Both for bancor ,i sure this two project will recover price when btc price stable

all people now still buying bitcoin, there is no chance for stox will rise until this btc fork hype finish
im afraid this stox will crash until bottom $0,1 , since people cash out coin/token to buy btc

$0.1? You think stox will be that low? I think when bitcoin pump, altcoins are dumped because traders need decrease the average entry point. In fiat value, stox is not dropped a lot like last dump.

It won't go to $0.10. Although I am sure it will take some time that it climbs back up to where it came from -.-

There is additional explanation about the system.

Put it simply: you leave your Unify wallet open and wait for rewards while at the same time you’re helping to maintain the Unify network. This system proofs to enable more transactions per second and PoS currencies are a lot more cost efficient. There is no mining, no need for expensive computer equipment and therefore no fear for a large electrical bill.

So you can help for Unify Network.

If you have lots of coins or a relatively significant amount invested in crypto, make sure you apply sufficient security measures to protect your wallets. One important thing would be to not store all your coins on the same computer that you do all your daily stuff with. There are key loggers everywhere, and you might wonder one day when your wallet is empty out of a sudden.

Stox will grow above $50 a coin next year, mark my words.

It can happen if Gnosis at $110 and Augur @ $18

Stox is better than both of them..  would recommend just buy and hold

You are throwing dollar prices around here like if they were comparable. You should have a look at the supply and come up with a common denominator. This does not make sense at all.

Agreed you gotta look at the whole picture. And besides without a working product how can they even begin to climb back up? The only that was great about this coin was Mayweather shilling it hard. After that

whole epsiode things have been rough. I guess we know to stay away from celebrity endorsement deals in the future...or so Id hope  Roll Eyes

Haha I completely missed that. Did Mayweather talk about this coin? How the heck did he become aware of this project?


Mayweather posted a tweet on his twitter regarding the Stox Ico and how he's about to make millions. So that hyped everyone up, and Stox was pretty smart about leading on investors with saying that theres a huge announcement (Around the fight) so everyone thought Mayweather was gonna promote it on TV, like wear a hat or a shirt with the words STOX on it but nothing happened. The night after the fight Stox went from $2.70 to $1 then the next day it went from $1 to $.50 lol.

Hahaha oh my god, what a great story. And it shows how much the people care about stuff besides the development itself. Herd behavior at its best Cheesy Hilarious!

its not true
it did not fall to 0.5$ in 2 days


You're right, instead it had a slow sad fall and it took about week or so. But it did go from $2.75 to $1 in 2 days. lol

Cheesy he found a small piece of wrong info in the overall correct puzzle! Kudos Tongue

haha I wish I could upvote comments (I get that feeling a lot here lol)

just mentioned .. there is a big difference when you tell someone a story..



To be honest he got the message across perfectly. I don't really care whether it dropped a 70% or 85% or whatever, it dropped like hell. That's the point. You are not incorrect of course, assuming you are correct Wink

when the ico start?
They say ICO will start at 20 December, and may will end at jan 2018, you can cek on prev post

The token sale is actually starting December 8th and will run until December 29th or until the max cap is hit.
Thanks for news info update start token  sale me wanting buy this is coin

I don't really think it is optimal to let the ICO run through all those holidays. Especially when you consider the end of the ICO taking place between Christmas and New Year's Eve. Maybe it doesn't matter, but its just a feeling that I have. Do you guys disagree?
