Cajutel ICO Schedule: 18 Aug to 18 Nov 2017

[OZmaster]

Are you running a bounty campaign? And how many tokens will bounty participants receive? Is that already decided?

yes we do. Contact sachin@cajutel.com for details

thank you very much. Do you also have a special presale window or something like that?

The ICO is already running and there is big discounts for early buyers. see section 8 of whitepaper.
We have reached phase 2 of 5 now. see cajutel.io

Ok thanks. Was out of the loop for some time now but will check everything thoroughly and make my decision.

Interesting, are you going to do a PHY or NFV approach?

The access network has to be PHYsical network as it will be routed for redundancy and you can not run NFV on the towers due to power consumption limitations. It would also be highly expensive without bringing much benefit there.

In the core datacenters some network virtualisation functions could make sense. Todays solutions in software defined routers are however nice in functionality but if it comes at bare metal wirespeed naked bandwidth, nothing will beat dedicated hardware in price/performance or power consumption. especially if you run at multiple 10G/s+ using AES256  encryption on all links. Hardware does 8 x 10G fully encrypted using 90W in a 3500$ box. Software routers can never mach this in price and powerconsumption and space requirements.

But NFV is scalable, and can work on COTS hardware

So far I have not seen any affordable solutions for our type of applications. If you know any vendors to be considered, let me know via email. Im open to look at any vendors

Well, since AT&T bought Brocade, maybe their vEPC is up for sale?

What is the estimated revenue when the project is finished?

What is the estimated revenue when the project is finished?

The estimated revenue is documented year by year in https://cajutel.gw/whitepaper.pdf and in detail (month by month) in the excel sheet http://cajutel.gw/investor/cajutel-business-plan-1.6-financials.xls

In year 6 we expect to have 68M$ in EBITA and 151M$ in assets. EBITA is expectedto grow year after year as by then we only expect a market share of 14%.

Kiwi, hypothetical question, if the ICO does not sell out, whats the plan for those leftover ICO tokens?

Also, the assumption for me is that if this ICO does not reach funding phase 4 than all contributions will be refunded correct?

These numbers look very lucrative.
What's the error margin on these calculations?

So you expect just 14% share, how else is present on this market?

In the space where we enter, the market is 98% empty today and the rest is occupied by MTN and Orange on 2G GPRS and a bit of old Wimax.

So, there is gone be fight for market share... I think everybody will have own market and people will be happy with our provider

thx for sharing

no there is not a fight. there is 98% untapped market. The key is access to bandwidth which we have but the existing players dont

Are you sure? You said MTN and Orange will be there... And they not gone fight for bigger piece of cake???

They probably will get a piece of the cake but they have to invest same anounts or more. And there is plenty of cake left for everyone. Fights start when you want to take away customers from  the competitors. Here we take up new cusomers who never used the internet before. Speed is the key there. Serve them first and serve them well and they stay your customers forever.

That's true. Even the price doesn't matter if the service is good

for bigger piece, service must be better then everyone...

Since there's no 3g capability there, even the plain 3g woud be good. up to 7 mbps

True but modern 4G LTE base stations are not more expensiveand make more efficient use of the spectrum. LTE advanced can even go to 1gbit/s and above in some cases.
