Kronos. What is it?Kronos is Bitcoinica on steroids - a leveraged trade platform built with security and urgency in mind. Kronos does not handle USD and leverages ZipConf for immediate deposits and GoxBTC withdrawals. That is, instead of waiting ~2h to be credited with BTC you deposit, you’ll be credited in 10-15 seconds. ZipConf has been extensively tested, and were a double-spend to successfully be executed, ZipConf is insuring the loss, so it wouldn’t affect Kronos. While it only uses BTC, you are still able to open positions shorting and going long with BTC due to the infrastructure behind Kronos.
You can take a look at Kronos by visiting Kronos.io – it’s currently “inner-circle, very early” beta, so very few people are being allowed to test. Large bond-buyers will be permitted an invite code for early use.
For investor information on Kronos, please see documentation at [ We'll be providing this as soon as we get it -- before June ]
Okay, so I know what Kronos is, now. What’s Kronos.BND and what’s its purpose?Kronos.BND is a floating bond, paying .00011428571% of Kronos’ bi-weekly net profit per each bond every 14 days (thus, first dividends will be on June 29th), and is what will ensure Kronos has adequate funds to maintain operations (covering leveraged positions, for example) as well as for additional startup costs – paying the attorney, costs of getting everyone where they need to be, dedicated servers, getting the company publicly registered in Iceland, etc. In total, Kronos.BND will be paying out 20% of Kronos net profit. Dividends are not guaranteed, of course -- if Kronos operates at a net loss between last payment period and an upcoming payment period, then no dividends will be issued at the upcoming payment period.
It is likely that more bonds will be issued some time in the near-ish future (likely late June) at a price, date, and in an amount not yet determined.
Kronos.BND Buyback ProvisionWhen Kronos management decides to buy back shares, they will pay a flat .115BTC per bond unit. An announcement will be made 15 days prior to the buyback actually happening.
I'm interested in buying pre-IPO. What's the price?The minimum order is 1,500 shares. For orders with a purchase amount between 1500-7499 bonds, the price is .1125BTC/bond. For orders with an amount between 7500-15000 bonds, the price is .11BTC/bond. For orders with an amount greater than 15000 bonds, the price is .105BTC/bond. Orders of 7,500 bonds or more are welcome to a Kronos.io beta invite code.
Purchasers must pay within 7 days of making the reservation (or on June 14th, whichever is earliest). Those who have already purchased prior to this being implemented (07:30 UTC on 5/28) are not bound by this rule, but it'd be appreciated if they honored it. Anyone who does not pay within that time (excluding previous bond-reservers) will have their reservation invalidated.
There will be an IPO, where the minimum price will be .115BTC/bond. Because the IPO is done with an open-market order, there is no guarantee you will get bonds at the minimum price nor that you'll be able to purchase bonds if there are not enough available to fulfill your order.
Cheers,
IOU
