When are the BOB-Tokens from the pre-sale paid out?

I think Bob-token distribution will be done after the main sale which is coming up on the 4th of April and may last till the end of April. I will suggest you join the telegram group https://t.me/bob'srepair, you can ask your questions there.

Yes, token distribution is expected to happen when ICO ends, which is May 4th, meaning it should be anything beyond 4th of May.

Bob-token distribution for pre-sale will be done prior to 31st March, they already hired a financial firm to handle the token distribution audit. Token distribution will soon commence only for pre-sale investors.
Oh its nice! The distribution of token from pre-ICO up to ICO is different. Well, its great to know that Bob's repair is totally distinguish from other ICO from the projects, developers and updates. Hopefully, the distribution for pre-ICO will be done smoothly!

It is quite interesting that even it's telegram group has a staggering number of over 40,000 users. Also they are doing quite a great job with marketing and global awareness.
There's no more to wish in Bob's repair. They got all of the attitude, popularity and knowledgable developer as well as their project. What an astonishing performance for the team! I saw also that there are lots of queries and people on their telegram but still they answered it on time and accurately.

As we can see in above article, we will notice that Japan slowly integrates the blockchain technology. And it is a good news for us crypto enthusiast that Japan, one of the most advanced and developed country in the world is moving towards the innovation of cryptocurrency.
That means absolutely nothing for us. Blockchain and cryptocurrencies are different things. For example some company can store its data on decentralized blockchain for better safe but they won't have to use cryptocurrencies and we will not benefit from it. The technical progress is ofc good but I can't find anything super usefull here. In some cases mass adoption of blockchain can even harm crypto. Foe example: companies hire blockchain devs to develop their own data stuff. That  burst salaries for this kind of specialists (salaries ale already high in this field) and it will be way more expensive to develop any crypto related projects without strong financial basis.
There can be even more negative sides, that's just the first thing that came to my mind.
Why is it absolutely nothing? Where does the cryptocurrencies alligned? Cryptocurrencies used blockchain technology. All of projects I've seen had their own blockchain technology.
Yes, they are both different in terms but they dynamically function as one. Blockchain technology as well as cryptocurrency are interconnected with each other. There can be no cryptocurrency without blockchain technology.
Don't say it is absolutely nothing because you don't know the future. In addition, why does the company will store they data in a decentralized blockchain? They will store in a PUBLIC ledger?
Because it is different blockchains. For example a company can create their own decentralized data center to lower their expences. It is not necessary to use cryptocurrencies for that (unexpected, yes?). In this case it will be the same as if people in china  start using spoons, according to this logic the "adoption" of the technology should somehow benefit me. You should have cryptocurrency to use blockchain.
It means absolutely nothing for me because they are not using cryptocurrencies. I shouldn't see the future to know that.
Okay. I got your point! Well, we can't predict if the fujitsu will run a cryptocurrency because it may or may not. But up to now, we can consider that it will not affect us much. Probably, if the Japanese company will launch their own token and ICO, that's the time that all of crypto enthusiast will be benefited.

I just stop looking at bitcoin price. It hurts me actually, that's why I took this decision. I am holding few of BTC and I will not look at my wallets too for 2 months. I hope after 2 months when I will go to see bitcoin price, maybe I will scream happily. What about you guys?  Grin
I am also a hodler of BTC and right now, my BTC in my wallet seems to be in its lowest price. I am newly in investing. In fact, this is the first time I have invest in BTC  and I don't want to be discourage by this crash. 50% was already lose to my investment and I need to hold.

Met a girl who has been working on a restaurant for mere 200$ a month with some tips in hand. On a conversation she started to elaborate about her life and in between the conversation turned towards cryptocurrency. By the time, she stated she has got 300 bitcoin in her wallet. While the price was around $10 she has given it to her Sister to keep hold of it and keep it secure. Her sister has made use of it and invested into lot of properties. Now when asked about the bitcoin, she shows bare hands. Now she was unable to do anything, and surviving with the $200+ salary per month. Don't you feel pity, it really hurts on hearing the tearful words coming out from her.
Ouch! A tearful story of bitcoin that shows full of regrets. Sometimes, we need to wait for everything. Patience is one of the key to success. If she wait until the price arise probably, she is a millionaire right now. But, that's life! Maybe, there are other ways that made for her by our God. God has always a lot of plans to us, we just need to open ourselves for every problem that we had and always keep our heart to Him because He knows what is better to us.

Japanese IT Giant Fujitsu Launches Blockchain Center in Europe

The adhesion of the blockchain or distributed ledger technology (DLT) among big companies worldwide has generated a real “Ledger running” mainly among companies in the technology sector. Google, Microsoft and Amazon are just a few of the world’s giants looking to deploy new solutions that use blockchain to provide more security, reliability and new features for building an increasingly connected world.

However, noting this new data market, companies like Bosch, Volkswagen, Continental, usually associated with hardware solutions, are also developing implementations for the promising Internet of Things (IoT) industry. It is a market that, according to Statistics, must have more than 75 billion connected devices interacting with each other in different ways.

Fujitsu, a Japanese company with more than 156,000 employees worldwide, is also noting this market and announced this week the opening of its first Blockchain Innovation Center, located in Brussels, Belgium, with the aim of supporting research, development and innovation in this new industry.”These new technologies are revolutionizing the way consumers and businesses buy, sell, and distribute goods and services. Technology enables completely new business models that can be deployed in the service and manufacturing industries. Blockchain can be used in many areas such as logistics, supply chains and public records and functions, such as records, identity documents and so-called “smart contracts”, which ensure the automated execution of contracts “, says the company’s official announcement about the initiative.

According to Fujitsu, one of the main areas that the company intends to invest in its development are the services of Smart Cities. The Japanese company believes that by 2050, more than 66% of the world’s population will be living in urban areas, an increase of 2.5 billion people compared to the current data; So Fujitsu believes that smart city solutions will be needed for social organization, sociological and demographic factors, economic viability and environmental challenges.

“We believe blockchain technology plays a significant role in the development of smart cities.” Today, more than half of the world’s population lives in urban areas, and by 2050 this number is expected to increase to 66 percent. Cities need to adapt to these developments and become smart cities that connect ITC’s technologies with infrastructure and architectures to solve social, economic and environmental challenges, “said Frederik De Breuck, Presales and Business Assurance Director of Fujitsu Benelux.

Also in Germany, Fujitsu is heavily involved with services, platforms, and infrastructures related to distributed accounting technologies, as well as the use of solutions based on the IOTA Tangle network.

Let us forget for a mean time the crash of crypto market and focus on the positive thing happens in the world of blockchain.
Fujitsu is a Japanese company that pursuing to connect to the blockchain technology. As we can see in above article, we will notice that Japan slowly integrates the blockchain technology. And it is a good news for us crypto enthusiast that Japan, one of the most advanced and developed country in the world is moving towards the innovation of cryptocurrency.

527  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Bitcoin will be the only remaing cryptocurrency online!!! on: March 30, 2018, 08:15:51 AM
Twitters banning of cryptocurrency related ads and ICO's is a huge attack on cryptocurrency world. This may sound bad, but this is a good news for bitcoin. If you have read the article the twitter CEO mentioned this " bitcoin would likely stand as the world’s “single” currency, and that fiat or other forms of virtual money would become obsolete or nonexistent; the world ultimately will have a single currency; the internet will have a single currency. I personally believe that it will be bitcoin.” (https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/twitter-abruptly-bans-cryptocurrency-ads-beginning-today/)

These are the words being thrown by Twitter CEO and I was surprised to see that bitcoins value had dropped again. Those statements are telling us not to sell our bitcoin today but rather we must sell other altcoins and buy more bitcoins. If what he said is true then we the bitcoin holders will be really rich in the future.
For sure, it may not happen. A lot of existing cryptocurrencies are more powerful and had a rich developers. It is not easily to take down all of this cryptocurrency because the developers are popular and they will not let their capital and investors will gone.
What about their efforts to make their own advanced blockchain? Cryptocurrency will fall down if it may happen. A lot of people will surely disappointed if this scenery will occur.

529  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: What will happen when BTC will get closer to 21M?! on: March 29, 2018, 08:45:59 AM
Hi Guys!

Recently I was thinking what will happen after 21M limit reaches?!

Whole bitcoin decentralization relies on miners, who compute for our transactions and so, but they should have their profit in that, cause nobody won't work for free Wink
As far as the limit getting closer the mining starting to be slow and profit is getting to be less.

I guess sooner or later a lot of miners will move to other cryptocurrencies like ETH and so, even if some non-profit organization take care about mining process the whole meaning of the decentralization will disappear.

I think there is no Bitcoin bubble in that meaning like was for dot.com (though for other currencies there is bubble IMHO:)), because the whole meaning of Bitcoin is anonymity and this is very important thing for humans in the our era, which means that even if Bitcoin reaches to the 21M there won't be significant deflation, but my concern is that as far that number getting closer as mining will become less profitable and miners will drop this useful and great process!

Hope I am wrong, because Bitcoin is great project!
2140, the projected year that the whole bitcoin supply will be mined. As of now, it does not a big problem because aroung 16 million of bitcoins are circulating in our economy and every 4 years there is a difficulty in mining every blocks of bitcoin.
If time will come and all of bitcoins were circulated in our economy, it is possible that miners will move to altcoins but they must change also their hardwares because bitcoin mining processor is different from others. And maybe, miners will just add a transaction fees if ever it will happe. Anyway, that is the problem of the 22nd century people.
530  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: a lot of FUD, here is some good news on: March 17, 2018, 02:23:35 PM
I hope that what you wrote was not also a FUD news. Well, it can bring back the enthusiasm of the mass in bitcoin. Good news can awake those who want to sell their coins right now. Yet, it is a good news. We can't assure that if it is true unless it will shows worldwide. But because I am a fan of bitcoin, I am always supporting people who supports bitcoin. And I think it is better if the people believe in bitcoin even on its biggest loses.
531  Economy / Economics / Re: Alternative investments on: March 15, 2018, 03:43:04 PM
Investing in reality is good other than investing in bitcoin. Real investment also my plan when I have enough earnings in bitcoin. There is an advantage in investing in real investment, why? Because we know that we see the physical profits as well as capital itself. You know what? It is hard to invest your money in a thing that you don't even know the future.
532  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bob's Repair Initial Coin Offering on: March 13, 2018, 03:27:25 PM
which phase of roadmap you are now?
I did not see a roadmap in the whitepaper of Bob's repair. But as what I saw in the updates on their telegram, Bob's repair already ended the Pre-ICO stage wherein their ICO was sold out. I think that they will open the ICO stage soon and April will be the end of their token sale.
533  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Again to the bottom? on: March 10, 2018, 10:51:04 PM
Today, bitcoin could not resist $9300 and now fell below $8800. We fall back to 6K?
I hope not! For sure, my investment will also fall and I am currently lose a  big amount of money. I know I have mistakes because I buy bitcoin during its downturn but I always hold my bitcoin. But if the surge continuously goes, for sure I will buy some bitcoins again and hold it as it will rise up.
534  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Google Wants to Ban ICO and Crypto Ads?! on: March 10, 2018, 10:30:13 PM
There is a big impact in the crypto community if ever the banning of google even in the search engine will become true. Facebook already banned ICOs next is the google. For sure, other social media site like twitter will also follow their ban to ICO.
There a great effect whenever google bans the ICO, specially if the investors are using google to search for a good investment. I hope that it will not affect much of the price and hopefully, it was just a FUD news.
535  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: Why bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are banned? on: March 10, 2018, 09:50:48 PM
Some banks and corporations said they’re halting purchases of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies on their credit cards. Banning it because they don’t want the credit risk associated with the transactions. Some says that allowing purchases of cryptocurrencies can create big headaches for lenders, which can be left on the hook if a borrower bets wrong and can’t repay.
Not necessarily banned in all banks, there are some banks that accept bitcoin and other cryptocurrency like in my country.
Maybe, one of the reason why the banks prohibited the bitcoin because bitcoin is a volatile and the banks don't want to risk theirselves and the lenders. The banks also think that if they will incorporate bitcoin in their system, maybe anytime they will lose profita that may lead to their bankruptcy.
536  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Re: 725 Percent More Domains Now Running Crypto Mining Scripts on: March 10, 2018, 02:43:22 PM

Crypto mining activity over the web scripts doubled last year compared to 2016. It also increased in December and January. More companies in the entrepreneur or business environment are on target.
Know More: Coinpedia
This just prove that cryptocurrency gradually dominated all over the world. As a crypto enthusiast, we must promote to other people by letting them to know well about cryptocurrency.
Crypto mining activity affects the speed of transaction and might the one that cause bitcoin surged. If there are lots of investors as well as miners, there is a possibility that the mining activity will rapidly change time by time.
Therefore, crypto mining activity is good because it helps the transaction mpre better and reliable.

If there is too much public opinion about a thing, then most of this thing has a demon.
How do you say so?
What if that thing is about religion? You must see the purpose of that thing before you will conclude everything because public opinion is not about demonic activity, it is a matter of awareness of people in a certain issue.

If everyone wants to make money through the blockchain, it means that the chances of making money are no longer great.
In order to make the economic stability, monetary policy is needed. Unless the fiat currency will have no more value. But as long as the fiat circulated in our economy though there is a blockchain, it is needed to have a money making process.

The redistribution of wealth has never been to everyone's share. Calm down and think carefully.
Even before there is already unequal distribution of wealth. In fact, the income of an individual has always depend upon their economic status.
Until now, it does not happen! If you have a lot of coins then you can play with your capital. But as of now, crypto help the poor people to have an income. There is always unequal in our society, and the future depends upon us.

The virtual currency that is now being favored by the public is represented by Bitcoin. If there is no payment function, what meaning does it have in addition to speculation?
There is a payment function in Bitcoin, it already used as a means of exchange and payment for establishments. There are usage of bitcoin in our current economy.

Why is the use of blockchain technology all talked about is not focused on the application of virtual currency in retail payment?
Because blockchain technology as of now is not all about in retail payment. Blockchain technology used already in different projects. There are lot of uses of blockchain technology that allows transparency.

The reason why we are doing our main sale on April 4th is that we wanted to publish our MVP: App, SMS API, and Decentralized Marketplace. We will be announcing a massive partnership (Their dev team is helping us and giving us early access to a certain product). Also, will be doing a 1 million dollar airdrop mid march with a referral program for the main sale. Our goal is to make sure we offer the best possible product prior to launching on April 4th.

Hello dev i hope you'll reconsider your supporters and ico investors to be also included in the airdrop. Even the tiniest amount it would be okay for me. And also, it would be good if the airdrop will happen directly in exchange. Like what TRON did.







The airdrop will be open to everyone! We will be announcing all the details Monday and most likely start on March 14th. We are super excited. Our CEO will be heading to Hong Kong to be on the Radio Show Bloomberg Asia Worldwide and also do an interview with Bloomberg Magazine. There are going to be a lot of exciting announcements prior to the beginning of the main sale.
Oh yeah!
That is a great news! Bob's repair will conduct an airdrop. I won't miss that opportunity to join in your airdrop. I hope that you will inform us in your updates about the airdrop of Bob's repair.
Aside that, I want also to see in the bloomberg Asia the interview in you CEO. I hope I watch it on March 14, 2018 because I want to see a live interview in the project. Well, do you have any information also in the program where the CEO will interview? I mean, I want an exact details about the upcoming interview for the CEO. Thank you!
539  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Tokens (Altcoins) / Re: [ANN] Bob's Repair Initial Coin Offering on: March 08, 2018, 12:02:29 AM
Every day more and more interest is shown to the project. I think with such a pace will be able to collect Hard Cap on the first day.
Ya. Bob’s doesnt make much noise but making really a big move. Because of Bob’s vision it is impossible to think that their ICO will just turn out to be one of many garbages ICOs. They have a very reasonable and noble visions to achieve.
They do not even need to make a lot of noise, they are already quite famous, their ads work well
The project is already noisy, why? They will not gain a lot of investors if their ICO is almost quiet. The fact that the project is alive at all times and there are supporters as well as promoters, the more it will be spread in the community. Remember, Bob's repair has a solid promoter who is John McAfee. And I think one of the reason the Bob's repair is successful because of its asset.

Why is it still a mirage in our society
Nope it is not anymore unequal when it comes in gender. Yet, there are people who get criticism and bully, it is because the indoctrination as social influence reacts in the people that surrounded by the gay.
This is the problem of third gender, on how they will be respected in our community. But for me, gay and lesbian must not be judged in their personality because they choose their own road.
