[CryptosD]

Can i buy tokens now?

Yes, you can. The presale is already live. To register for whitelist and buy tokens before the public sale, please go to tokensale.cappasity.com . Hurry up - it's not much time left. The whitelist will close with the start of public sale on 25 October.

what about the Howey test? What does it say?

[MasterJek]

is this token or coin?

It's a utility token and will also be used in the Ecosystem (3D marketplace) to purchase content. You can find more info here: https://artoken.io/assets/docs/Cappasity_WP.pdf

what happens if token sale is oversubscribed?

do you rly need to use a BlockChain? looks like you cold work without it

The decision to engage in the mechanism of a token crowdsale was made after much consideration and an appreciation of our (Cappasity) long-term Goals and strategy. We believe content will drive the mass market adoption of this revolutionary technology. The examples of FaceBook et al has taught us content delivered to a platform, by the user base, is a very value giving model. Creating lasting value has also ascribed consideration to our family of contributors as creating a platform and ecosystem of lasting value requires use and support of the 3D community. The use of BlockChain is by choice. We believe a decentralized ‘trustless’ ledger with an inherent immutability makes sense for almost all things so we believe it is a good use here. There is also the question of cost saving with a decentralized ledger as legacy systems are built on trust and therefore have plethora of ‘oversight’ costs built in for the system to operate as designed. The model of a Crowdsale of a utility token makes sense also for the building out of the 3D marketplace. There is already substantial development value in the production capability of the Cappasity platform today. The Crowdsale will fund the building of the marketplace ecosystem and will capture and commercialize everything that comes after that. This is a nascent industry, developing a Token, specific to trade in its growing value just makes sense!  This, we believe, represents as stronger case as any, for the issuance of a utility token.

Is there a minimum individual cap for early investors?

Yes, the minimum is $30 for all participators.

what about the Howey test? What does it say?

The calculated ARToken score is 20. Which is "unlikely".

what happens if token sale is oversubscribed?

It's impossible. We've got hardcap so the sale will close as soon as hardcap is reached.

Why does your project need a token at all?

Hi FrayDigger - Thank you for your question.

do the 3D content buyers and creators need to subscribe to Cappasity (which costs $14-99/month) in order to participate in your ecosystem?

New iPhone model seems to have interesting AR features. Could I use the platform services via iPhone?

[mariyawisman]

Tell me what the main features do you provide? What your target audience?

How many content providers that you have at the moment?

Hi Cris - great question. Can I ask that you email support@cappasity.com and ask the question there?  As they are responsible for the Cappasity domain and all around it they will have a number they can share with you.

Hi NikitaSkublov0202 - for the purpose of accuracy may I ask you drop a quick email to support@cappasity.com in respect of your question.  The Cappasity support team will have all the information you will need in respect of everything happen on or around the Cappasity platform. Thank you.

Hi Philip - thank you for your question. Any hardware supporting AR rendering will will be able to support AR content from the Cappasity Platform Repository.  The Cappasity iPhone app will be released soon. This will enable content to be created from the device.  The device, and whatever AR features it supports, will be able to be used to render that content compliant with the device. Perhaps the most exciting thing to know is Tim Cook and the iPhone Team are committed to VR/AR and 3D's future and iPhone will continue to play a strong leading role in how this more immersive content is delivered onto a mobile platform.

And what happens if token sale is undersubscribed?

[Blackfurysm]

Is this erc20 token?

And what could be the main use cases?

Hi LupeKidman - I believe AR/VR and 3D content will permeate all online interactive communication we, as human beings enjoy now, and encroach on the new domains of Education, Exhibitions, Art, Medicine, Entertainment, Advertising, Sales and more.  Have a look at the Cappasity Blog page for some great illustrations of user cases, that perhaps you have not thought about.  Thank you for your question.

[NiceIT]

Could I know the soft cap?

[reidpeter]

who r your sponsors, who have invested already?

Hi antongee28 - I believe Angel investors and VC money have funded the project early.  Please see the ARToken whitepaper for more information on this subject.
