It has changed now. Over 45 BTC has been invested as at now. Maybe Investors are in for the rush hour. More Investments were made today compare to first 6 days of the IPO. I wish the Ascendancy Team Goodluck!

ASC tokens after the IPO will be available on your website only and the real exchanges will be released at the end of 2017 or at the beginning of 2018?
There will be your internal(domestic) exchange for ASC token only? And who can be sure that you will modify all of your products till a logical conclusion?

What about ICO failed if you can't raise the minimum funding target? You will refund the investors, we know, but will you still continue the project without funding?

We are in the process of developing Ascendancy regardless of the situation with funds. The funds are escrowed until we release a product that our 3 trusted escrows are satisfied with and we leave this up to their interpretation (https://ascendancy.io/escrow.pdf). We do not have access to funds until the product is complete.

This is an opportunity for investors to obtain some token equity which in turn the capital is used to market and fund our staff to market and develop. Ascendancy will be completed whether no more funds are invested at all but the price will increase after the IPO if we have the funds and backing to push to an exchange, to market to a wider varierty of people.

Ascendancy will be an ever evolving platform that people can be a part of, during this early development stage we are open to suggestions and you can be a part of that. We do not force anyone to invest. as I say, This is an opportunity.

The first ipo price week for Ascendancy ends on February 3rd 2017 at 20:00 GMT.
We still have a few slots available for our 15% bonus which ends on February 7th 2017.

So Richard, When Should we be expecting the Platform to be finished? 2018 ? I think that's too far because the ICO will end Q1 2017. I can't say If I'm disappointed or not but I'd be willing to wait.

I'll be waiting sir
more precisely when ICO will end. If in July. It feels very long
Please detail the right back your information sir.

Hello Richard,

Some trolls here got a point when they ask about your identity's.

I want to invest but now i am curious as to why you keep ignoring this question?

It just looks like a Lisk clone to me.

hi, guys is there is somewhere where i can track ico fundind results?
cause im now thinking about to deposit, but not sure, want to check how is going and check number of collected funds.
Can i find somewhere blockain link or somtheing else?

is it true on March 3, ICO is going to end up?
I would like to ask about the distribution of the coins was when?
What if these coins failed do you still pay for participants of the campaign?

Hi,
Where I can see the source code please?
Thanks,

Nothing new here, just another money grab clone. Prove me wrong

Where does it say only 2BTC is invested?

For the whitepaper's emphasis on user-friendliness, it is ironic that a relative newbie like me had to also read a bunch of thread pages to finally deduce the apparent intended purpose of Ascendancy, beyond a very vague goal of helping people create decentralized applications.

(Imagine if someone said their business plan was simply "to create applications": You'd ask what applications, why, and how, in which market sector, with what advantages over competitors and alternatives).

Apparently Ascendancy's actual purpose can be summed up as: kind of like LISK but supposed to be more user-friendly and modular, to whatever degree that matters, also somehow more efficient

Lisk is a large $16 million market cap coin, out for a long time.  Yet, as near as I can tell at quick glance, nobody has so far ever developed a decentralized application on it that is actually functional with real users, beyond their brief list of concepts and prototype ideas.

I'm pretty sure, if that is accomplished in Lisk or another decentralized application framework like hypothetical Ascendancy, the pioneers will be groups of experienced programmers, not utter casual newbies.  Yet, along with a silly unprofessionally irrelevant quote bashing U.S. math scores compared to other countries, Ascendancy's whitepaper talks about target users for whom "cryptography is a scary word" because "they associate it with mathematics."  Those are not the people going to be creating some of the world's first dApps anyway.

The actual example applications in the whitepaper seem to be what would not be tried by mere newbies, so, if user-friendliness is a particular advantage obtained, it would only be user-friendliness by the standards of a tool built for programmers or close to it.

One example application is a "fully featured cryptocurrency in a separate container."  That possibly means helping some users create a new coin or token, in a more customizable manner than just an Ethereum token or just paying a fraction of a Btc to a coin creation service like Creatio.  Having a market niche of large enough size is unknown, particularly as I know Creatio is currently bringing in only around a bitcoin a month in net service buys (other than cycling Yobit bots and speculators).

Another example Ascendancy application is creating a "website/blog," which is presumably cryptocurrency-related in some unspecified manner.  A high-end interpretation would be something heavily cryptocurrency-based and aimed at taking on the likes of Wordpress or Steem, but it seems to rather be in the "simple" section of the list.  So maybe it just means adding some kind of crypto payment widget to a website otherwise unrelated to crypto.

But nearly all of this has to be deduced or wildly guessed, as the whitepaper is mainly just vague.

To have even a chance at obtaining anywhere close to 480 Btc, drastic measures would need to be taken, probably including an improved whitepaper and some working example of something, before the end of the ICO.  You're presently asking for a half million dollars with a whitepaper less refined than some college essays.  If having seen enough prior ICOs, even the fact that this is only a 18-page thread is a red flag warning for chance of failure at drawing enough community interest for a goal that ambitious.

As a possible would-be investor, I'd be happy to be proven wrong if it means a way for me to make money, but neither the current whitepaper, nor apparently previously unresearched naivety about plausible ICO results, give any confidence that Ascendancy has a well-developed business plan.

I think this is the main issue for this project, people are finding it difficult to differentiate it from Lisk-like project, the team need to work to correct this assumption.

I have a question, is this a Lisk clone? I just hope this doesn't turn out to be another "RISE".
