Thank you so much guys

In a generalized response,

   @ those who havent received the second part of their first bounty yet, we're somewhere around No. 101. We all got distracted about a week ago after Doctors confirmation that Silver wouldnt make it. Siggi and her assistants should be resuming soon. Thank you for your understanding. Please note that if there is no TIO in your Balance, your account will be skipped, and they'll come back to paying you after everyone else has been paid, as stated earlier on.

   - About timing the market: we've already been hurt by wrongly timing the market in the past. Back when I raised the concern bitcoin was $10,300, it went already below 8000. If we had gone on the exchange then, it would have been a waste of momentum, and exchange fees paid would have been lost. If we have to go a centralized exchange in a bear market then we're better off doing it when our main platform is live, our fight right now is for our tour guides platform to go live.

  - On final note, this is a very small project, total money raised during our ICO was 103,000 and over 80% of the funds were from friends and family, less than $15,000 (which we're thankful for) came from this community, so yes pressure for us to deliver on promises is very personal and close to home.

 The huge losses from crypto this year has scared aware our investors, and like most of you, we also bought bitcoin at over $17k, with the sole intent to use it to pay for exchange listings and we're still counting our losses. With our core investors shaken up, we can't afford to throw money around and jeopardize the future of this project, it's important that we concentrate our funds on whats most important, which is paying for right the developers to get our Tour Guides platform up, if the market appears to have found it's floor before then, we'll be listing on an exchange as well, if not, we'll time a big exchange listing to match with our platform lunch.


 And yes I understand the concerns of those who have been with us from the beginning, this looks like a shadow of what we were or are supposed to be, but thesame goes for the entire market. We remain very committed to this project. And as a travel project, our future does not depend on blockchain.

 


   

 

   

Dear All,

  We lost Silver Martins yesterday after a long battle with illness since december. He died at 3.30pm Central Asian Time. What started as a stress induced drop in blood sugar at the climax of our ICO, continued to degenerate into other medical conditions after a long stay in the hospital.

  Silver martins was partially disabled after an ischemic stroke in 2014 and was literally attracted to this project based on the belief that people of all kinds of physical and mental conditions deserve a shot at finding guides or tours that fit their needs.

  Thank you Silver, we'll keep the struggle alive to make sure your dreams and those of everyone else who joined thus far becomes a reality.

   
 

Guys as you can see, Siggi is back so expect your bounty anytime soon.

  For those of you who have continued to retweet regardless of how awful we have been with keeping with time dates, we will be very generous with our bonus, you deserve it.

And @pundit  we are having discussion on how to proceed to market our Lottery so that it;s cost effective and yields results.

 Yes, marketing so far has cost us quite a lot and we're till quite a small company with big goals so cost saving is quite important to us.

  Let me get back to you on this.

   So we communicated with Stocks.exchange about 9days ago, and they cleared us for a listing, but then the market started tanking. Here is  what we were thinking,

  This community has been trying to get on coinmarketcap for a while, a listing on stocks.exchange could give us the volume to get listed, however, the market is very bearish, jumping in on now literally could mean that we would be losing
an opportunity to get new investors to the bear market.

  So what do you guys think? should we go ahead and list now when most people are concerned about investing in cryptos and throw away a good opportunity or just do and avoid any unforeseeable problems. We are still undecided about this, so the community can help give us your thoughts. Or do we start a poll, just to see. But remember a badly timed listing could be a big loss.

  We can equally just pay for the listing and ask them to open the trades at a preferred date. Your thoughts please.


  Here is what our end game is,

  Since Mercatox is no longer listing new tokens until they upgrade. We're thinking about Stocks.exchange

  Once listed we'll trade for a couple months and time our Project launch with a listing on coinexchange/hitbtc or any other exchange with a similar volume/ listing fee, hopefully they all continue to remain in the business and continue to grow strong, as this cryptouniverse is very unpredictable.

   Once live with our platforms we can approach, Kucoin/Binance/Okex for a listing. This is our timeline with regards to our token, our platforms will still follow the same original timeline.

 For now, we'll just get on IDEX.

  

  

  

  

  
 

  
 

Lol, good one

   Stratton Actually, since we are quite late on deadlines, we decided to extend the Maximum circulating supply of 450,000 to September Next year (2018).  We want this community to grow financially especially those who bought TIO at the very beginning, keeping the supply low is how to guarantee that.

  And, we have to buy back at least, 50,000 of your stack sometime later on this year, We'll buy back from the exchange, but there is a reason to believe those who have smaller quantities may not want to sell that much. I will write you again about this.


  And yes, were thinking about re-submitting an application for Yobit... We'll just do that again since you brought that up there's no need to have too much expectations, we'll let them respond when they respond.

 
  
  

In regards to the bounty payment, Guys we are NOT lacking TIO, so you shouldnt be concerned whether or NOT you'll get the bounty payment in TIO. I did say in my last response that Siggi is responsible for the bounty and will be continuing once she's back and settles in.

   But then I can't help but wonder if there is some other place you guys are planning on selling this token beyond where we're trading on?

  On the positive side, you're being Made to Hodl while we get this project up and on some good exchanges, so you don't sell off for pennies.

  

  

  

  

  

Hey  Stratton, Trade satoshi, Has almost no volume. I think stocks.exchange is better what do you think?

   

  Did notice that they have been listing a lot of companies out of Asia. Do you have an idea what their listing fee is?

  - We've received some solid applications from programmers to join our team, and we're currently looking forward to having them speed up the development of our platform and brush up our UX/UI on all our pages.

 - Before contacting any of the TOP 5 exchanges again, we want to have tour guides platform up and running first and have the guides from some of the agencies that we have contracted to signed up. Ofcourse not having our platform up and running at this point doesnt help out image, so there's no need burning bridges that are needed for the future, we want to do the right thing and then contact them for a listing when we have our running project to back it up.

The small exchanges for now are more than good enough as we only have 450,000 tokens in circulation, we don't have to be on the likes of binance to get our marketcap/price to something healthy and reasonable for now. The likes of coinexchange/Livecoin/mercatox are actually more than good enough for now.

  For those asking why this token never got listed on a bigger exchange yet, here's a timeline of events again.

   The Chinese Government banned ICOs after we started our ICO causing a bear market and hurting us and how much we were able to raise. The price of Bitcoin was at 3,500 at the end of our ICO. When we were about to finalize with HitBTC, the price  rose to 6,500 (Causing the total listing fee needed to paid back then to be about $58,000) and we asked for a reduced price and when they refused, we thought we should give bitcoin a week or so for the price to come back to something close to 3,500 ( Our Biggest regret to date), As we all Bitcoin went on  to be valued at over 19,000 causing the listing fee to be over 200k. something we couldnt afford. And our Application with Binance, never saw the light of day.

   There's no need to make any excuses, not being able to launch our platform as announced, remains our biggest hinderance and has caused our overall timeline to be dented and disorganized. We are going to pull through. We're heavily invested in this project financially, mind, body and Soul, and the only way out is to continue to invest. I know you guys can't wait for an announcement that our platform is up and running, etc. Neither can we. In due time this will all start to come together, the unpredictability of the Crypto Economy was heavily underestimated by us in the beginning.

  We are very indebted to those of you who continue to positively support this project regardless of how Bad we have been doing, and we find strength in your support.

   Even though the Crypto community is quite unpredictable, one thing that seems to be predictable is that a project that has a community that believes in it and Devs that continue to work on it, end up doing well in the long run, so our story here can never be different.

    We remain very committed.

    There's a bear market on right now, and making any positive announcements could be easily drowned in it. We'll hold off and announce them at appropriate times.


  

  

    

 

 

 

  Dikan, did you correctly give us your postal address earlier on? and is it still there now in the bounty form. Those who've been with us from the beginning that never got a shirt are probably those who didnt give us a correct full postal address.

  Julia, we're really sorry about the delay with bounty situation, and we're all working round the clock to catch up with project deadlines, Silver Martins been  ill for 2 weeks, and Siggi's has been in Indonesia working on delivering on some other aspects of our project both their departments are responsible for calculating and paying the bounty. We are looking forwarding to adding some new names to our team as we are currently understaffed. Our biggest goal now is to get on a solid exchange, launch our tours platform and get on CMC, and then the TIO economy will start to take shape. Siggi's assistant wlll start calculating the new bounty updates that have been put in the bounty form. And as usual those who retweeted everything will get an additional bonus.

   Every bounty wlll be paid

 And we'll send new T-shirts to those who never got one and those who asked for new ones. Thank you guys so much for your understanding.

  We have a new video add coming up which will be playing across youtube to help promote our T-shirt campaign, and that hopefully should help bring in more participants. We want to go forward with the lottery as advertised, however more participants are needed.

  Helps us spread the word so we can all have the T-shirt/Lottery campaign that we all hoped to have.

 Thanks Nehta, Fortunately/unfortunately giving up is not an option here, every project announced will be delivered. better late than never. Or better late with a solid product than on time with a crappy one.

  Thank you.

  And thanks again for stopping by

@ Pundit we've been commenting on the ANN thread. This is the bounty thread. To keep it short and simple, we are working hard to meet up with missed deadlines and to catch up with upcoming deadlines.

 

  Yes we were about to be listed on Mercatox and  something happened which caused us to delay the listing. We'll get back to getting TIO on Mercatox.

Happy new year guys,

  Sorry about the delay in the payment of the bounty. You'll definitely be getting the unpaid balances and also get paid for any further partcipation in the bounty (retweets or social media activity). We are overwhelmed with work and we are trying to catch up on all the missed deadlines.

   
  Thank you for your understanding.

   

@pundit an accurate date in february would be announced later.

  We're sorry pundit. But only 20 something people took a picture. that disqualifies the others who were sent a T-shirt and refused to take a picture. We've sent PMs and they've gone mute.It's a painful loss on our side. Anyways. our Best guess is people in the crypto community prefer to be anonymous, so we have look to the travel community to get the large numbers of partcipants we were hoping to get.

  

We're moving forward the date of our Lottery Draw to sometime in february next year, to be announced later. Reason is of over 200 Tshirts posted, over 80% of those who received T-shirts never posted a picture. If we were to draw a lottery based on the few who posted a picture, every single person who took a picture would be winning, which defeats the purpose of this.


  What we intend to do is once, our we are live with our platform, promote the lottery to the travel community outside cryptocurrency community to find more partpaticipants ( thereby promoting the project too).

   Thank you for your understanding.
