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

[lukesimon]

What was the whitelist programm? A special bonus or what exactly. can i invest in btc or only eth during the ico?

The whitelist program was a reservation promo which you will need register early to reserve tokens on the pre-sale and receive 25% bonus.

The pre-sale ended earlier than expected last week because a lot of tokens were both and exceeded the expectation of Hacken. It means that it's already done.

The only way you can get 25% bonus will be the first 1-4 hours of the main ICO which is on 31st Oct 2017. However, you can still avail of lower bonus if you haven't managed to buy early at the first 4 hours.

So, the preliminary sale is already over.
How much was raised at this stage?
Thank you!

Hi, 1 Million HKN tokens were sold at the whitelisting program and 800,000 HKN tokens were sold at the pre-sale.

and how many coins are reserved because of the whitelist programm?

1 Million HKN tokens were sold at the whitelisting program.

Howdy all,

Back again with a Telegram roundup for you, focusing on the main discussion points over the last few days.

General Questions:
1. How are you different to QuantStamp?
>QuantStamp focuses its efforts on smart contract auditing. Hacken concentrates on the building of a cybersecurity marketplace. Hacken is also building cybersecurity ecosystems with the goal to connect blockchain communities; giving companies and white hat hackers the ability to cooperate on a fair basis. In addition, Quantstamp is focused on the solidity language their universal scanner release is a year away. HackenProof is aiming for a Q4 realise this year.

2. Do you believe that companies are going to trust Hacken enough to allow them to dig vulnerabilities just because they claim to be white hats?
>It's already proven that bug bounties are a more efficient tool than penetration test audits by big cybersecurity companies. A key reason for this is that in bug bounty program only the first white hat that finds a bug will get rewarded, so it's unlikely that a bug won't be reported. So the short story is that more bugs get fixed and bounty hunters get paid.


Token Sale Related Questions
Are there any restrictions on citizens of particular countries - US, China, Singapore etc?
>Regulations are ever changing, so please read the Terms and Conditions before you purchase here: https://hacken.io/wp-content/uploads/Terms_and_Conditions.pdf

1. How much did Hacken raise during the Whitelist sale?
>Hacken's soft cap of 1.5m USD was raised and the decision was made to close the Whitelist sale early, leaving the remaining tokens for the main sale.

2. What's the minimum amount of tokens that can be purchased during the main sale?
> Minimum purchase during the main sale is 1 HKN (1 USD).

3. What's the hard cap again?
> The hard cap is 20m USD.


A couple of other interesting things...
1. A new advisor is coming onboard soon. There was a teaser in Telegram today, but it'll be revealed shortly...so stay tuned. Rumour is their name starts with a J.

2. Hacked.com completed a deep analysis of Hacken's ICO and project which you can read here: https://hacked.com/ico-analysis-hacken-io/

3. There are plans to develop official HKN wallet alongside development of the HackenProof platform.


Ok, that's it for now. Sorry it's such a long one...I've been a little slack on the updates but I hope you get something out of it.

Thank you HPC for your direct answers to our queries. This helped a lot as the main ICO is coming. We will stay tune for more updates.

i like the project, i signed up for the ico today, i hope i did make it on time on the whitelist. i just got the verification email, but i have no idea how to buy the tokens. Will a platform be online in 14 hours?

yes you are right. i am in waiting mode too. i have a huge feeling that this token will sold fast and the value will appreciate fast too.

yeah, i am new to the crypto world and i know nothing about hacking...but i know 1 thing: cyber security will be one of the main concern for any future solid project. Any brand, coin or project will need to test its system and hacken will have a lot of job requests. I think it will be a widely used platform all around the globe. it is a good investmen because it is not a coin sale per se, but it has an actual project, vision and field of applicability!

sadly i'm very poor and i can only afford to invest a small amount of money (like 20€), but still...i want to help and invest

every million is composed of cents and pennies. better start to invest early for you to attain your million early.

Hi guys. Tell me, please, what is the ETH address of the project?

I searched on the pages of blog and on the site - did not find.
I think the address can be obtained after registering here - https://join.hacken.io/

Good luck! =)

Yes, even many people have registered and waiting for their address, I think people should carefully check the address before sending anything because there are many to steal your money. Check twice before sending the payments.

This ICO is hosted by Orderbook so all people have an account on that site to contribute into that ICO. No option available to buy this token directly from that site. People have so many choices to buy this token with variety of cryptocurrencies.

can  i buy HKN in the join page directly sending ETH or BTC from coinbase?

because i'm trying to buy with BTC from coinbase, but the address i have been given in the ico page is not a btc address...will it work with ETH from coinbase? or do i have to use orderbook.io ?

You should join orderbook.io to contribute into this ICO after creating account on that site you can make transfer funds from any exchange to your account and can buy this token without any restriction.

Still no project was as interesting to me as Hacken. By the way, you have an excellent site. I really liked the idea with the photo team.

That page using api from orderbook there is nothing confusing if you look over that page carefully it's powered by orderbook. If you have an account on orderbook than you can use that details to buy on that page too.

I think orderbook.io is asking for verification to submit the documents in order to deposit the amount. Before Hacken ICO start I try to send the fund to orderbook but asking for Identity verification. If you join for whitelist then you will get an email from the hacken support, follow those steps.
