Yes, we were working on a number of partnerships with different institutions. We have however slowed down on partnerships following a fall out with IBM. We presented our innovation to IBM in Nairobi, Kenya, got a partnership invitation email and we were hoping to partner. They kept quiet and never replied to our emails. We were later shocked when the IBM employees and the Land LayBy team met during an information session organised by the Architectural Associaton of Kenya on issues touching on the blockchain technology and real estate. IBM employees denied that a blockchain platform ever existed in Kenya and made sure they manipulated the presentation. Land LayBy Kenya was never given a chance to engage the Architects despite being invited as thought leaders in blockchain innovation.

We have managed to secure strategic partners like the Strathmore College in Kenya http://www.strathmore.edu/news/land-layby-technologies-partners-with-strathmore-university-kenya/


Our product is cleverly designed to intentionally avoid direct interaction with government officials or the government. One needs to grow and have lived in Africa to understand the ferocity of brides, corruption and land graft. We will build an independent ecosystem that relied on the community.


Thank you for your comments.


True, that's correct.


Correct, Land LayBy Listing, securing land rights through blockchain to facilitate sustainable development sums it all !


The financials are available but private. One thing you should understand is that we have a ready product and we are selling the solution through the ICO Platform. You will agree , this ICO is quite different from the rest, we don't just have an idea, we have implemented the idea and are selling the solution through ICO. By buying the utility keys, you are in essence buying access to the platform to either list your blocks of land to the blockchain, or access the blockchain data.

Whether we sell all tokens or none during the ICO is immaterial because the Land LayBy Listing project will still go on. We mean, even if we sold ZERO Harambee tokens during the ICO, the LLL will still continue and we will sell our solution through other outlets.
The Harambee Tokens reserved for the producers are basically to incentivise the advocates, surveyors, financial institutions to record and post credible data to the blockchain. This LLL is like uber, it can be accessed by anyone in any part of the world, as long as there is a user (land buyer/landowner), producer ( advocate/surveyor) just like uber app required a rider and driver for it to operate in different jurisdictions.

Furthermore the process of mapping communal land and almost 90% of the land in Africa which is unregistered will involve incentivising the advocates, surveyors and many stakeholders. That's a big budget if you consider all the African countries not to mention other continents that are still developing and share the same land issues as Africa.

Many organisations like World Bank, UNEP, WHO will find value in our social impact project and we don't rule out the possibility of extra funding from these institutions.



Thank for believing in us.

Blockchain records will certainly change this, since Blockchain renders land data as realtime information.


Yes, there are and here's excerpts from the whitepaper  . . In order to control and manage the ecosystem, all memberships acquired during presale will be subjected to some form of restrictions. Rules for certain memberships purchased at bonus rates will be subject to a special restrictions schedule to support a stable ecosystem. The restriction period commences on the date of distribution, not on the date of purchase. Distribution is scheduled for a month after the ICO/TDE. Participants buying memberships at a bonus rate of 9:1 will have access to 15 per cent of their total purchase after an initial restrictions period of 120 days following distribution. The next 25 percent will be restricted for an additional 180 days and a further 60 percent will be restricted for an additional 120 days. Participants buying memberships at bonus rate of 19:1 will have access to 25 per cent of their total purchase after an initial restriction period of 120 days following distribution. The other 25 per cent will be restricted for an additional 180 days and a further 50 percent will be restricted for an additional 120 days. Participants buying memberships at a bonus rate of 39:1 will have access to 35 per cent of their total purchase after an initial restriction period of 120 days following distribution. The other 65 percent will be restricted  for an additional 150 days. All the tokens reserved for the employees will be restricted as follows: employees and business partners will have access to five percent of their total allocated[11] tokens (other than what they have purchased) after an initial vesting period of 120 days following distribution. Another five percent will be restricted  for an additional 150 days and the next 10 percent will be restricted for a further 120 days. The remaining 80 percent will be restricted for additional 300 days and only accessible provided the employee or the partner worked for the project for a continuous and uninterrupted period of two years excluding the normal annual leave arrangements.
 

Yes, anyone can enlist in the Land Layby. Enlisted does not mean that you have to sell or buy. No, without papers no can sell or buy a small piece of land. We will verify their community acknowledgment if no one own the land as well as acknowledgement is perfect then he or she can buy or sell their land.

A block consists of all details about a certain piece of land. Once a block space is exhausted with transactions, a new block is created and they are linked together through cryptography. The result is a linear and chronological order referred to as Blockchain. Each time a block gets completed, a new block is generated. There are a countless number of such blocks in the blockchain. The use of cryptography to secure and chain data in the blocks creates an immutable record that is unchangeable by design. Challenges stated have made the simple legal process of buying/selling land in Kenya, a laborious endeavor. Moreover, due to the paperwork involved, the process is prone to errors which are costly to rectify. Land LayBy Listing on blockchain will contain up to date information about a particular land asset. This makes LLL an independent verification listing and where appropriate a mirror of what was and is reflected in the Ministry of Land registry hence speeding up the process of decision-making in cases where land is the core component of development. The Law Courts admissibility of these records as evidence by design shall provide clarity of ownership in cases of land disputes where the original Land Registry files are missing.

For us to control and manage liquidity of the HBRE tokens, tokens acquired during the presale will be subjected to some form of restriction. Restriction rules for certain Pre-Sale Token participants purchased at Bonus rates will be subject to a special restriction scheduled to support a stable pricing environment when the token is distributed after the TDE. The restriction period commences on the date of distribution and not on the date of purchase. Distribution is scheduled for 30th NOVEMBER 2018, or a month after the TDE or the later of.

The process of securing land record is simple and clear. We use the ingenuity of mathematics functions and cryptography to uniquely fingerprint each land transaction recorded. This function is known as a HASH. The function accepts data of any length and size as input, and output a unique fixed length code for the corresponding input. Our blockchain platform is based on Ethereum blockchain, which utilizes a
cryptographic function known as Keccak-256 to perform hashing. You will get more information when you read our white paper.

We will be accepting the Ethereum (ETH) coin. However, participants that are interested in our project can make use of Bitcoin and other Altcoins through third party software integrated with our TDE platform. HRBE token is an ERC20 compliant token. To participate in HRBE token generation event, you are required to have a corresponding ERC20 compliant web or app wallet. A wallet is a device that you use to store your private keys (Unique Addresses). To interact with basic smart contract functions like transfer of tokens, you need the private keys.

The Harambee Token is offered by Land LayBy Holdings Inc, an International Business Company incorporated in Seychelles. Anyone can participate in the HBRE token distribution event, except citizens and/or residents of the United States of America (USA), The People’s Republic of China, Hong Kong & Australia. Please read carefully the terms of the token sale agreement for further information to avoid legal disputes. However, this list is subject to increase since we are soon getting an internal business law expert opinion.

HRBE Token is an Ethereum based ERC 20 compliant utility cryptocurrency. Immediately we conclude our token sale on October 31st, 2018, users will be able to use the HRBE Token to access the Land LayBy Blockchain platform.

We are the pioneer in solving land acquisition problems in developing Countries leveraging on the blockchain technology through innovative land purchase contracts in the form of Land Call Options and/or a combination of Land Put/Call Options. Through our fintech arm, we shall be providing a transparent and secure land transactions ledger, backed by the blockchain technology, which presents a compelling value proposition to migrants and citizens of the developing countries alike. Generally, our vision is to assist in acquiring land through innovative low risk products.

First and foremost, we need to inform you that the Land LayBay Token sale is scheduled for September 1st, 2018. Funds that would be generated during the token sale will be used to complete further development, management and maintenance of the Land LayBy Land & Land Products blockchain and fund an expanded team of experts to support the Company’s global expansion strategy. The breakdown of the token distribution is - Development and R&D (41 %), Operation Human Resources (26%), Office & Professional Expenses (6%), Partners (2%), Buffer (7%), Marketing (18%).

Be aware that Land records in most developing countries are not available to members of the public. Tacit land information shared through generations is rarely upheld in cases of dispute and is often lost over time. In view of this, we therefore propose a solution through the blockchain platform to create a single Land LayBy Listing (LLL) of immutable and incorruptible land ownership details. With the Land Layby platform, you can buy and sell your land seamlessly without disputes.

We know that land ownership in the world is a major source of competition affecting all stratas of life such as social, political, and economic life. In most African societies, it is the most important of the natural resources, representing the foundation of much of the continent’s economic activity. We would be leveraging on the blockchain technology to build a trusted shared distributed ledger for recording land buying and selling transactions that can never be altered, corrupted, forged or replicated in error.

30 days after the main sale

First of all I want to inform you that we are the pioneer in this field. We are first means we are brand new. Yes there are so many competitors regarding land acquisition issues. If you are telling me about online acquision then we have no competitors right now. Furthermore, The introduction of the fSE (Franchise Sales Executive) business enables our business partners and other stakeholders to conduct and manage their own real estate business while making huge commissions. This is specifically engineered to incentivize the land marketplace to quickly adopt selling of Land through Land Options. This distribution strategy ensures that LLB rapidly expands in a very competitive market to large-scale production of Land Options which will then disrupt and revolutionize the land marketplace. Attaining large scale production of Land Options implies that we can be able to offer land options at significantly lower rates hence attracting more players and ultimately creating our own market. The potential of offering subscription rights to Advocates, Surveyors, Architects, Land Valuers and other professions related to real estate (land sales) presents a great opportunity to seamlessly integrate the business with the Harambee token, consequently creating positive platform networks effects.

Wallet is the space that you use to store your private keys (Unique Addresses). To interact with basic smart contract functions like transfer of tokens, you need the private keys.

NB: You cannot participate on any Ethereum based token sale from a Cryptocurrency Exchange wallet. HRBE token sale is not endorsing any wallets. The following are the most commonly used ERC20 wallets.

I. MyEtherWallet (No Download Needed)
II. MetaMask (Available on Firefox and Chrome browsers as an addon and a plugin respectively.)
III.Mist (Requires download)
IV. Parity(Requires download)
V. ImToken (This provides App wallets. Available for iPhone and all phones running Android)
VI. Trust
VII. Cipher

After you have set up your preferred wallet, you will need to have funds in your wallet. The funds are in form of ETH or BTC. If you don’t have any Ether or Bitcoins, you can exchange normal currency for them at a cryptocurrency exchange. The cryptocurrency exchange will require you to open an account with them, where you will transfer the fiat currency (USD, EUR, AUD, GBP, KSH) in order to get market equivalent of the same either in Bitcoins or Ether. Your BTC or ETH will be sent to an online wallet that will be provided to you by the exchange. It is strongly advisable not to keep amounts in the exchange wallet due to security concerns. Again you cannot participate in the token generation event using cryptocurrency exchange wallet. Send the cryptocurrency to the ERC20 compliant wallet that you created earlier.
Now you are fully equipped to participate in the HRBE token sale
