Hello previous ICO was cancelled and rescheduled! You can email info@gluon.com or PM me here for more details if you would like.

All information is posted on gluon.com/faq

Excellent! Greetings to you developers!

For the first time I see that in the announcement of ICO there were several representatives from the project. It is very cool and this is a serious approach to the process.

Many people were waiting for when finally the stratis will mature before the creation of competition with the blockchain of Ethereum. And I immediately have some questions. I think that many will be interested to know your opinions.
How do you assess the readiness of the blockchain of stratis to launch the project?
Have you reached the stage of testing tokens in Stratis's blockchain?
ICO dates have not yet been announced. Is this related to the fact that the stratis isn't yet ready to launch its own project, or there are other reasons?

I understand that this is an internal kitchen, but still, if possible, give some information for us.

Thank you for the post.

There will be a ton of information once we launch the ICO dates and Whitepaper.  All I can say at this time is we wouldn't partner with Stratis if we felt they weren't ready or able to support our product.  We have years of R&D, engineers, and people who have created a real product ready for the automotive marketplace. 
Stratis is exactly what we needed in a partner to support the growth and services offered by Gluon. 

Everyone involved wants this to be the smooth process.   Stratis and Gluon are moving forward together to make sure all aspects are supported.  That also means the community of supporters will have  a great experience.   

Stratis is an innovated blockchain and we want to succeed for them just as much as we want to succeed for us.  We all have to move forward in a cohesive manner for this to be a success.   

We will be releasing more information very soon.  We appreciate the support and patience during this process.


Chris

Many thanks, Chris! That's exactly what I was hoping to hear. I will certainly get acquainted with your project in detail and return here with other questions.

[EDisney]

Yes contribution in other currencies than STRAT will be converted to STRAT using Changelly, which we believe is a great thing also for Stratis.

Also, You will need to have a strat wallet to receive the token upon purchase.

Thats exactly what I would like to to get more info. How the procedure will happen of purchasing GLU and where we will receive it? Is strat wallet already well established to contain strat based tokens?

Good point, please devs specify more on this question. More than that, do not you plan to use TVE (TheViralExchange - stratis project) to promote your project? Could you also provide link to medium if you have such.

TVE is NOT a Stratis project. TVE belongs to Blitzcash (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1504819.0). Blitzcash will be a Stratis Sidechain though.

5. One line catch phrase

An Intelligent Connected Automotive Marketplace

6. Concept description 3 - 10 sentences

Gluon’s platform establishes an interconnected network of vehicles where individuals and businesses can monitor, track, tune, and diagnose the issues on them. Despite recent advances in automotive technologies such as self-parking and self-driving vehicles coupled with the improvement of alternative fuel sources, passenger vehicles have been largely left out of the connectivity discussion. Using the Gluon platform (IoT, Cloud Platform, AI, and Blockchain), individuals and businesses are able to compete and benefit from a rapidly changing marketplace. Even with the advent of the Internet of Things, most vehicles today utilize technology to track and report on one vehicle at a time, and only when they are at the repair shop.

Not only can customers diagnose their vehicles themselves, order parts, and request bids on repairs, but they can schedule repairs, send/receive payments for services and goods. Consumers can tune their vehicles for optimal performance and/or regulate their use. Repair shops can diagnose vehicles more cost-effectively and accurately order the correct parts. Vehicle service record, repairs, diagnostics, smog tests are all stored in the Gluon secure blockchain based on the Stratis Platform. Consumers and businesses are given the flexibility and security of paying with and/or receiving cryptocurrency payments in addition to traditional forms of payments.

7. How does the project create value to the ecosystem and differs from competing projects

Gluon’s model is based on generating multiple revenue streams including, but not limited to, hardware sales, software subscriptions, advertising, monitoring services, diagnostic services, data services, e-commerce parts sales, and blockchain transaction processing. Gluon products will enable developers to create ancillary applications that will run on the platform, enhancing its functionality and broadening its appeal. No other projects like it.

8. Incorporated company's country

Incorporated in the USA with offices in the UK, Sweden and India.

Yes, if take this information into account is likely all investors have to go through KYC. For many, this is a problem because many people want to remain anonymous

Sorry if I may ask, is this the first ICO of this coin? because this coin look familiar more so that it has been on this forum for a while now. Have done campaign for this coin in the past and I remember seeing the coin anywhere now it is showing up again for ICO

They have the answer to this question on the website in the FAQ section:
Why was the first ICO not successful?
answer
We received more venture funding that allowed us time to select a partner and refine the platform.  Ethereum was not the right fit for us. Stratis is the perfect BaaS Blockchain for Gluon to integrate with. We really appreciate you checking in with us.

[appraiser]

I have a good amount in the stratis at the Bittrex exchange. I think that I will take part in the purchase in this coin

Thank you! 

We hope to see you at the ICO

I noticed that the registration in the white list need to specify 3 types of wallets: eth, btc and strat. What is the reason? Gluon token based on strat blockchain, why need others wallets? Also, if  specify a currency with which will be investment it is possible to choose LTC, but in the section to fill the wallets of LTC is missing.

Oh God, now they will say that KYC is mandatory. I know that anonymity in net is myth but ... Who likes KYC? 

TVE is NOT a Stratis project. TVE belongs to Blitzcash (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1504819.0). Blitzcash will be a Stratis Sidechain though.

I always thought that TVE is Stratis team project. Well thank you for info!

Also, if  specify a currency with which will be investment it is possible to choose LTC, but in the section to fill the wallets of LTC is missing.

The Stratis ICO platform will be blockchain agnostic which means you will be able to invest using STRAT, ETH, BTC, NEO and LTC and it will do the conversion to Stratis in the background through changelly. This means you will be able to invest in ICOs without having to exchange your BTC or other crypto into Stratis first. Saves you time.

Entering wallet addresses is optional. One of the reasons is to try and prevent duplicate registrations.

Previous post answers the Changelly aspect and game-changing approach by Stratis for contributions.
