Hello, I checked out all the team's LinkedIn profiles and not one of the members of the team have this project listed on there LinkedIn profile, which makes it feel as this is a side project?
I'm assuming the pre-ICO and ICO raise is to see if this a viable business before going full time on it?
Thank you for your interest! To be honest we are not big LinkedIn fans. Kingston, although host to Canada's premier University and Military College, is actually a fairly small town, and so every one around here already knows each other! We've noted your concern, and you are right, the rest of the world uses LinkedIn, so we will make updating our profiles a priority.

It sound interesting but what I found difficult to understand is, the project 1 that worth $5 million going to be a collective involvement or individual?
Hi Seyico! Sorry, I am having trouble understanding your question, but I will try to answer. The project is created and being run by a single company. Kings Distributed Systems owns and operates all the proprietary code etc. There are other projects who we are interfacing with, such as BOINC, but they are not directly affiliated with us. We are however getting involved with their open source development, and have access to some individuals from BOINC who would like to support our growth. Although they are very interested in being in the cryptocurrency space, because they are american non-profits who get grants from government foundations they are restricted from doing so. This is where we come in! They are happy to have us market their network using our own crypto coin. While our Alpha will be interfacing with BOINC, we plan to launch our own peer-network as soon as possible, as this will allow us to begin marketing to commercial projects. The plan is to have our proprietary network released in Q1 2018. I hope that answers your questions. Please if you would like, you can ask for more clarification. Our Presale begins in less then 24 hours! Tomorrow July 27th at 11AM EST (New York time) we will be launching the sale capped at 1000 ETH. The sale is designed to reward early adopters, help us release our alpha, and build up to a larger initial coin offering. You can see more at http://kingsds.networkJoin us in slack, or sign up for the ICO News e-mail list and we will be notifying everyone when it has begun.

hello, dev, you mentioned that this project is focused on Educational and Research institutions. As far as know, many top research institutions have its own supercomputer, and I think this market is not so big, I just want to know more detail about the target market. Thank you.

This is a very interesting project, I want to translate it to japanese language if it is permitted. But I am interested to also invest in this project, is there a pre-sale price for this project? What will I get if I buy 1 ETH?

All universities have access to supercomputers one way or another, some have them in house and some are contracted to non-profits. Much of this funding comes from governments in one way or another. These computers are very expensive and constantly need to be updated with new hardware, and we are looking to replace this process. As we grow we will be bidding for these government and university grants, so they may contract us to be their supercomputer supply. As you may know demand exceeds supply! There is a constant line for these computers at universities, and this even after it has been carefully distributed. There are many researchers who would like to do a lot more, but simply cannot get access to the supercomputer time at their university. If there is one thing all scientists have in common, it is that they want more computer power. Our distributed network is more cost-efficient then running hardware centers and that is where our advantage comes. We are the cheaper, and more powerful solution. We are looking at both of these segments, picking up the central contracts themselves, and also the excess demand. You can find more information on how this demand comes on the technology page of our website: http://kingsds.network/technology.htmlHave a look at the usecase example to see how more supply is creating more demand.

The presale lasts untill 1000Eth. There is no minimum. We're looking forward to getting our alpha online in the comming week, and contacting exchanges to start the listing process. Additionally we have meetings set up with blockchain focused media and advertising as we move towards ICO.

We've been getting some questions about the tokens.
Plesse note the tokens are created at 0x58bf7df57d9DA7113c4cCb49d8463D4908C735cb
This address is different from the presale address.
Your tokens are immediately active. We are talking to exchanges about listings and than etherscan for official ERC20 recognition.
Also as a sneak peak we are ahead of schedule and Alpha is to trial next week! Alpha than to be live the following week if all goes well.

Thank you! Our Alpha is now live with its soft launch! We will officially be the first supercomputer coin where you can begin to earn Ethereum Tokens! We are running a soft launch (fake coins rewarded) for the first week to make sure everything is going well. Beginning August 6 we hope to be live with real tokens! You can sign-up at http://alpha.kingsds.networkWe are working on tutorials for those unfamiliar with BOINC, to be out over the next few days. On another note, we have almost graduated to a Jr Member at BitcoinTalk, when we do we will be starting a new thread with updated branding and info-graphics. Thank you everyone for helping to make this possible! We hope to continue to beat your expectations.
