[ANN] [HACKEN] FIRST DECENTRALIZED MARKETPLACE FOR WHITE HAT HACKERS

[MiniMountain]

Have you guys heard that Hacken has their own office in Kiev, Ukraine? where everything about the Hacken platform started with the help of professionals and some young talented students.

They really have an awesome community of hackers and bright people in a single place so I bet that no one can stop the rise of this platform.

That's a nice news you have there fella, can i ask where you read that news?. this is a good one i am imagining a place like a bootcamp where awesome people sit and exchange their ideas for hacken to workout successfully.

I just watched their videos on youtube and was amaze on the people behind of Hacken and their facilities.

If you guys didn't watch it yet then here is the link of their youtube channel:

Howdy all,

Here's a bit of a summary for what's being discussed in the Telegram chatroom (check it out: https://t.me/hackenio) the last couple of days. A lot of good questions are coming up on Telegram, so for those of you not joined up (I recommend it), here's a little bit you may have missed.

Some easy ones:-
How much has already been raised?
> 820k HKNs were sold in the pre-sale (900k USD at today's rate)

Is there a soft cap for the ICO?
> Yes, 1.5mln USD with 85% going to the HackenProof platform and 15% to the HackIT conference. The more that's raised, the more development that can be resourced. Maximum cap of 20 mln USD. Check out what hitting each of the milestones enable: https://hacken.io/#milestones


A couple of harder ones:-
Why do we need HKN token? People can already pay via Bitcoin to hackers for the same purpose.
> Hacken's burning model allows White hat hackers to have their own community token which increases in value with the platform developemnt. It will provide financial incentive to all memebers and help to build a strong community whilst improving the popularity of the profession and helping the blockchain and cryptocurrency community to develop with protected cybersecurity.

Why use a token at all?
>The future of cybersecurity is within decentrilized platforms. There is huge amount of work that needs to be done in blockchain cybersecurity and Hacken's mission is to attract more and more people into the cybersecurity field through the use of the HackenProof platform, regardless of borders.


-That's it for now, I'll update regularly as there's more to ask and answer.

In the mean time, check out the whitepaper here: https://hacken.io/common/files/HackenWP.pdf
Want to get involved and help spread the words? Might as well get some rewards too, check out the current bounties here: https://medium.com/hacken-ecosystem/hacken-bounty-campaign-6eaf46f956db

Few more left and we will hit the soft cap. Good to see here that Hacken's ICO is going good. I am right that I chose to support this project 'coz I believe it will be a good plan in the future. Because of having many cyber attacks in todays, we really need to have White Hat Hackers community for us to protect and secure our properties.

Other interesting news! Confideal Announces Cooperation with Hacken: https://cryptocoingrowth.com/2017/10/17/confideal-announces-cooperation-with-hacken/

Confideal is also a new project focusing in creating, managing and enforcing smart contracts but they believe in the potential of Hacken to increase the firewall of their platform. great job for the dev's and marketing!

That's a great news as the team is working hard to brought Hacken into life and make the world better. partnership, investors and supporters are rapidly increasing because they believe that Hacken will be the answer for innovation of cyber-sucrity around the globe.

How will the Supply and Demand Value of the HKN Token increase with regards to the Milestone Achievements - e.g. - Will there be an acceleration in HKN price as each milestone is met? 

I ask this because the value to the community increases as new projects are brought in with each new milestone achievement so does the value of the token increase incrementally as the project takes on more tasks?

i heard that the main office is in ukraine if im not mistaken.

Yes it is in Kiev the largest capital and largest city of Ukraine, they have a huge place for hackers and promising students with a lot of stuff like cafe, gym, school office and a secret room for 40 people (maybe some white hat hacker) they said that it is similar to school 42 in france.

wow! that is a great facility they've got, i haven't heard that before, HACKEN is really serious on their craft.

yea hacken is unstoppable they've got everything to be successful. go HACKEN!

They continue in improving and developing their services, thats a great news for all of us who believe and support this ICO. I really excited to the launching of this ICO , Im sure this ICO is one of the best and promising ICO now.

Hello,

Any informations regarding whitelist deadline?

[bayu7adi]

I really agree with this project. we must continue to provide support to the whitehat hackers. they always do a good thing to do.

[tatalin]

The number of cyber attacks each year continue to be on the rise. For both individuals and businesses, the numbers are frightening, and the risks are real. As more and more information stored online and more people rely on online services, safeguarding against hackers and preventing data theft is very important. To succeed, White Hat Hackers are gathered to defend those cyber victims. This is the very main purpose of Hacken.

Some easy ones:-
How much has already been raised?
> 820k HKNs were sold in the pre-sale (900k USD at today's rate)

Does this mean that the price has already increased almost 10% since the beginning?   (i.e. 900/820=$1.098 per Token)?  

If it were still at $1.00/HKN then Capitalization would be $820k...   Am I off in my thinking about this?

Hi RareFortune,

No, that's not the case, I realize now I should have been more clear. There was a pre-sale with a 30% bonus purchased in BTC, with which Hacken has benefited from the uptick in BTC price.

As for the ICO, there will be bonuses on purchases for the first 2 weeks starting at 25% and scaling down to 10%.

Hope that clears it up for you.

You've got a point there because gathering all White Hat Hackers in a single platform will build a strongest firewall against the malicious attacks of bad hackers and everyone who join the HackenProof community will get paid well for performing their task.

Yes this late breaking news is incredible!

It shows that major industry players are taking notice of Hacken and embracing the technology of Hacken community as a vital part of their future and security precautions. Hacken hasn't even left the starting block and this is a bold boost to the viability of the project.

The main token sale (ICO) will start on October 31, 2017 and will last for a month so probably November 30 or December 1 but it could end much sooner if they sold all of their tokens within the allocated time of ICO.

Hi RareFortune,

No, that's not the case, I realize now I should have been more clear. There was a pre-sale with a 33% bonus purchased in BTC, with which Hacken has benefited from the uptick in BTC price.

As for the ICO, there will be bonuses on purchases for the first 2 weeks starting at 25% and scaling down to 10%.

Hope that clears it up for you.

Thanks for a good explanation HPC1984 
I also thought that the HKN token value is changing although it is not yet released and not on the exchanges.

Dear Community Members,
The last several weeks were full of interesting events in the blockchain field and Hacken’s development. So, we decided to summarize our results for you and share our strategic directions on the second half of October.

http://telegra.ph/Hacken-Monthly-Report-10-15

The most astonishing statement in the monthly report is how serious the problem is that we face when considering investing in blockchain technologies.   

Consider the following statement from the monthly report:

"Evidently, the cost of the stolen information and money that happened because of these vulnerabilities will reach $6 trillion by 2021. "

To put this number in perspective - the entire USA Money Supply (M2) was reported to be $13.65 Trillion in September 2017.     

It is almost inconceivable that by 2021, the value of stolen cyber property is projected to reach over 40% of the entire 2017 United States Money supply.

Thank you very much for your prompt reply! This is a big rarity among campaign administrators!)
 7+ to the administrator's karma)))
