FAQ:

1. Why you do not go VCs?
Because I don't want to share high amount of options with them. If anyone knows a VC who accepts an amount percent of profits, you can contact me directly.
2. Why you do not use other fundraising platforms?
The platforms specified to a couple of countries. In my country (Turkey), we cannot use them.
3. Why the soft cap is 1 million USD?
After the kick start, we will be creditable for any amount from the government as an initiative
4. Where is your fancy Whitepaper?
It will be released before ICO's start date.
5. Where is your fancy Website?
It will be released before ICO's start date.
6. Where are other team members?
We are shooting cool photos. But COVID-19 is not very helpful.
7. How can we calculate the maximum supply token?
It depends on how much token distributed. For example, We'll have 100.000.000 distributed tokens (%60) by the end of the sales, then we have to add the company distributions (%40) on top of that amount, and the final amount of tokens which will be in the ecosystem is 166.666.666.
8. Do you have bounty campaigns?
Unfortunately, we don't have a bounty campaign at the moment. Bounty campaigns need to be managed and take time for a while. We want to hit our target as soon as possible. Marketing expense is on the chart mentioned for further airdrops (if we need more accumulation), tournaments (create a trading volume), etc.

n = distributed token
f(n)=n+(n/60*40)

You could be right but anyway I will have a fresh view from here and I will dig into other (worst) options.

edit: COVID-19 affected working hours of outside. Our administration process going slowly with the government. We extend durations.

Since I see there is some token reserved for Marketing, will there be a bounty campaign for your project?
I also see the minimum amount to participate in private sale, but i didn't see the minimum for ICO, so I will assume 1 token is the minimum contribution, right?

Marketing expense is on there that mentioned for further airdrops (if we need more accumulation), tournaments (create a trading volume), etc.
The token will be generated by a smart-contract which is working automatically. So, the minimum amount is not an extra effort for us. I believe everyone deserves the same chance.
We are looking for our milestones.

In the private sale, Yes, we have a hard cap, but it won't be released publicly. Only private supporters will know that.
In the ICO, No, we don't have a hard cap. If you use wisely, any single paper ($) helps to increase the profitability of a company.
It has been discussed a strategy which helps to give a create high demand for our tokens.

edit: I added calculation of max supply;

Why do you choose ICO? why not IEO? as we see now if ICO will be more difficult to raise funds, without me mentioning the reason you would already know
I'm still waiting for full information

Hello, Henrobakkara. Thank you for asking that, I know IEO is the best way to get funds these days. But, Exchanges are very generous so they want huge amounts of shares from the token distribution or $ M $'s for making it real. Our soft cap is less rather than they want to list on their exchange's. After all, we want to achieve our goal in Bitcointalk for now.

So that's the reason behind it, sounds reasonable. and what's the goal that want to be achieved in bitcointalk? to build strong community and hire the right person for this project? is there another point to do it besides the two?

Nowadays, a strong community means who makes a profit on supported thing. Smiley Funding the project which will generate a working business, it is our first goal with who wants to make a profit from a private company.
Also, in the hiring process, the scope is not only Bitcointalk.
Our focus is not crypto things. It's a business like BNB(Binance's Cryptocurrency) that's an example of business, it's not the only cryptocurrency. It has funded and built a commercial company. You can make a profit from the token burn. It's named Buy Back on our project.

How many tokens will you buyback and burn? now a lot of projects that do that but it turns out they are very difficult to increase prices and even tend to dump. How does your project handle this kind of thing?

Buyback and burn will be done every quarter or only done once?

Company Detail:
- Type: Private LLC.
- Head Count: 5 people for now. (We need to hire another 15 people)
- Founder: me
So aside from you, there are four other members for this project.
Can you disclose who these people are? Their Bitcointalk usernames and LinkedIn profiles (if they have one of each).
Just so we can get a clearer picture as to who are the people acting as the backbone of this project.

BTW. Your google form asks for e-mail, twice (kinda redundant  Grin )
