Guerrix, security is our top concern. The smart contract for the main ICO will be fully audited, and the address will be published on RootProject hours before the main ICO start. Regards, Anton |

Hey everyone, A BIG announcement. Thanks for all your incredible help during the past ten days! We met our goal, in really, really difficult market conditions. We're so proud of the team that's come together and all we've accomplished. Together,
- We've raised 122% of our goal, with a mean contribution of just 3.75 ether.
- We've translated our material into a large number of languages
- We've built a 720 person community here on Slack, making our first hires and brought some really dedicated volunteers together with incredible bounty campaigners.
- We've generated interest among some very big names and powerful players
- We've refined our message and learned from one another.
Anton, Chris and I are proud of our role in that, as well. But, we made one big mistake: In trying to adhere to the lessons Chris and I have learned the hard way from our tech start ups (release early, go fast, iterate) we underestimated the necessary time lag involved when organizing a campaign. We knew from shopping around the whitepaper that we had a powerful idea that a community could rally around. But we went TOO fast. You guys probably recall last Wednesday, the lull from the first excitement but the day before we got our material up on some listing sites, and started communicating our ideas better to the public. That made Thursday, Friday and today all the better. But we still were left with only three business days with this organization fully up and running.
It seems almost absurd to get such a team up and running and then use it fully for just three weekdays, only to pause until the ICO. So, Chris, Anton and I talked about it, and we've decided to extend the pre-ICO until the following Friday, the 28th. The team is in place, the work is being done, and why stop? Learning from our mistake - and concerned about BIP 148 - we're also pushing the ICO itself back to Tuesday, September 5th, the day after Labor Day.
Important things to know:
- We will accelerate the release of the tokens relative to the ICO. So, this delay will only push the release of the tokens back 4-5 days from the originally promised date. (pushing the ICO back a bit less than 4 weeks, but the token release date up three weeks, relative to the ICO end date).
- We will remove the hard cap of $300k. If donations accelerate too much, we will close it down, as we don't want to let a market-significant share of tokens be awared with a 50% premium. We want to have the time and resources to have a truly world-class ICO.
- We're going to keep working just as hard at it.
- We will begin major development projects and more hiring now, not at the end of the pre-ICO. We've got some surprises in store when it comes to the MVP and its release date, relative to the ICO
- Let's have an open discussion about this in our community: If anyone has any points they'd like to discuss please let us know.
Thanks for your support. It seems surreal to say this team didn't even exist the Thursday before last. What we've done in ten days is incredible. I'm as excited for the next few months as any time in my life!
Regards,
Nick (and Anton, Chris, Ashley, Zac and Alex)

Dr. Nicholas Adams Judge just posted another article on Medium: "Crypto-Priced High Quality ICOs as Shelter From the BIP 148 Storm" https://medium.com/@nickadamsjudge/ether-based-high-quality-icos-as-shelter-from-the-bip-148-storm-9022b3869345He concludes that: If the goal is to make the highest risk-adjusted returns that can be made, while sheltering a portfolio from BIP-148 risk, find high-quality ICOs priced in a cryptocurrency, particularly one that will hold its operating budget mostly in fiat currency. Dr. Judge is always on RootProject's official Slack, where you can directly ask him a question. |

It's an interesting project. Involves multiple stakeholders - in self-interest tax rebates are issued. Funds help to act as a middleman currency for those in need. This essential role can only be fulfilled by a crypto. It can't actually be a card or a stamp as it won't work out.
The team looks pretty legit. Not a group of nobodies but rather people that have some relative knowledge to draw on. 'll be observing the project! Huge in potential
Hi rauderce, thank you for your appreciation. You get it absolutely right - crypto currency is the only sort of currency that can power RootProject. No card / no stamp / no sql database can fulfill the role of ROOTS. That is what differentiates ROOTS from other tokens. It is not just a means of payment, it's an incentive mechanism to lift people out of poverty. Regards, Anton |

I really like this project using token economics to bootstrap "good" projects and add value to worthwhile projects that don't have enough intrinsic economic incentive makes so much sense. Even if the token doesn't dramatically increase in value, just having this mechanism both serves the mainstream adoption of cryptocurrency and provides an anchor to charitable projects, but in a decentralized way.
Hi bitbytes, thanks for your appreciation! Yes, we want to become the public face of cryptos, at least in the USA. It's much harder for SEC to ban a crypto currency that powers social infrastructure, than an anonymous crypto currency. And btw, we've been getting a lot of excitement from people unfamiliar with crypto, which does not happen often  Regards, Anton |

I know this project a bit late. I participated in the slack because I hoped that I was still among the first 3000. Wish to succeed and more luck. Dev Hi phucdigan, could you please refer all questions related to the bounty to our Slack channel or the Bounty thread. But yes - you are one of the first 3000. So far, 533 users have joined our Slack channel. |

The team composition is very powerful not to add the degree they have got.
The presentation is interesting and the White Paper indicates the essence of the project, the essential informations are clearly written there and if you have some basic questions, you can just read it and you will find the answer.
Thanks for your appreciation, Coin_trader. May I just add that our team is very active on the official slack channel (join at https//rootproject.herokuapp.com), and we are always there to answer every question. |
