[ANN][ICO] Smart Containers SMARC ICO 🗺✈️ Scaling a Running Logistics Business

[GreenSkyTrails]

This project looks great. Working business scaling itself leveraging blockchain technology.

I have one observation, as you stated that presale still wasn't conducted then you might want to change the month in the OP. It's a bit confusing if you fully read information and think that presale was already conducted if it was in March.

Pre-Sale

Token pre-sale is private and will be conducted on invitation only. The pre-sale starts in March and comes with a 25% discount. The number of tokens sold at 25% discount is hard capped at 49.3 M tokens (=41%), raising USD 16 M.

Good spot! Yeah it should be updated to April (tentatively). I'll let the team know, thank you!

Dear community,

We have some great news! Just yesterday the Swiss news (SRF) broadcasted a report about Token Sale and comments on the current Token Sale situation and also highlighted Smart Containers as a high potential Token Sale.

I'm sure that SkyCell will be the biggest Pharma Container supplier worldwide. They also include B2C application, the future of pharma distribution directly to the patient.

I can see not only pharmacological use of the Smart containers. The food industry could be positively affected as well. And many more. However I don't see it can be utilized in current life, I think 5 years should pass before we can start to adopt IoT fully.

The fact is that such cargo transportation exists today. Many goods require certain conditions, for the preservation of the primordial forms. But the introduction of block-chain technology will certainly improve the quality of such services.

Already we have many smart containers presently and how you are going to compete to those already existing in the market because already they are doing their best with the contracts they are doing. So how you are different from those?

There are a few reasons why SmartContainers is much better than existing market competitors. First of all, it should be noted that Smart Containers already have a running business with their hardware, we are simply trying to marry the blockchain with the hardware.

1. Our patented hardware has about a 0.1% temperature deviation. The market average is 8.5%, making our hardware more than 75x better than the industrial norm.
2. We are already recognized as the safest system in the market.
3. Finally, with the new venture into blockchain, we can decentralize many aspects of logistics. For example, around a hundred or more e-mails can be required in order to conduct one shipment. By automating the documentation through the blockchain, we believe that many tens of man hours can be saved per shipment which will in turn save a lot of money for companies.
4. Transparency. The IoT sensors within the containers will provide real-time information on key information such as temperature.

I hope that helps!

Seems to be very interesting and what are the different types of shipment are your providing? Seems to be you have a good team and from which country presently you are operating?

Smart Containers have SkyCell (Pharma Application) and FoodGuardians (Food Application).
They are a Swiss based company.

Whether are you giving any particular time frame for the shipment, whether you are shipping large cargos to worldwide or it is restricted to only a few countries?

 WEBSITE  |   WHITEPAPER  |cutivesummary_smartcontainers_general.pdf]  WHITEPAPER SUMMARY  |  FAQ      


Smart Containers combines cutting edge container technology and IoT sensors integrated into a logistics ecosystem. All on the blockchain. We are preparing an ICO.

»»»»»» Fully running business applications ««««««
»»»»»» Nr. 4 in the field after only 5 years ««««««
»»»»»» Scaling of existing business by ICO ««««««



Smart Containers Group is a Swiss high-tech container provider aiming to create the first fully autonomous container based on blockchain technology, consequently disrupting the logistic industry.

Blockchain-based software and an IoT infrastructure is the core of Smart Containers Group strong technological ground, enabling to track and monitor each container around the world and making Smart Containers Group the largest provider of IoT airfreight containers on the market.

The combination of hardware, software and service enables Smart Containers Group to assertively position its division company SkyCell among the top four providers of pharma containers in the industry.
Through the FoodGuardians division, the next generation of reusable containers and boxes to transport temperature sensitive food products will be offered regionally and globally, preserving the product’s freshness and traceability.
Using blockchain as transformative technology in logistics, Smart Containers Group is driven by the opportunity to create the LOGI CHAIN, a fully integrated, seamless logistic ecosystem that will be accessible to all industry players at minimal cost. Therefore, Smart Containers Group will lead the way towards a more efficient, client-centric and cost-effective industry standard.


SMARC ICO

The SMARC token (SMARC) is a profit share token: 20% of future dividends and exit profits will be paid out to token holders. It is upon the Board of Directors of Smart Containers Group to make a proposal on how much dividends will be attributed year by year. Subsequently the General Assembly of Smart Containers Group approves or rejects the dividend plan. A payment equivalent to 20% of this amount is converted to Ether and sent to the SMARC token smart contract. The SMARC token smart contract evaluates the current holdings and dis- tributes the profits to the token holders in Ether.

In the event of an exit of one of the sub divisions, the same process as described above applies. The maximum total supply is 150 M tokens. 120 M tokens (80%) are offered in the initial coin offering, while the rest is used to cover the ICO costs and align interest of the Smart Containers Management. The hard cap for the ICO is USD 36 M. The price per token is fixed at USD 0.432.

Pre-Sale

Token pre-sale is private and will be conducted on invitation only. The pre-sale starts in March and comes with a 25% discount. The number of tokens sold at 25% discount is hard capped at 49.3 M tokens (=41%), raising USD 16 M.

Public Sale

The public token sale starts in April. 12.8 M tokens are sold during the public sale, raising USD 5 M. The first tier is sold with a discount of 15%. The second tier is discounted by 10% and the third tier comes at a discount of 5%.
Oversubscriptions of a bonus tier get allocated to the following tier. The estimated current bonus tier is visible on the website (www.smartcontainers.ch). The displayed amount may change due to changing exchange rates and is therefore indicative. Final bonus tier and token allocation is done post transaction. Oversubscriptions of the whole ICO are returned to the investors after the closing of the sale.

Private Sale

The rest of the SMARC tokens are offered in a private sale to institutional investors.

Whether are you giving any particular time frame for the shipment, whether you are shipping large cargos to worldwide or it is restricted to only a few countries?

We will not be able to guarantee all countries will be involved, for regulatory reasons etc, but have a look at our whitepaper and summary, for instance, we deal heavily with food and pharmaceuticals, such commodities are required to be transferred in a timely fashion under very high-quality conditions.

Payments in fiat can be done by credit card as well as banking transfers.

Only whitelisted participants will get an invitation to contribute. If you are interested in participating, please register your email on www.smartcontainers.ch. An invitation for the whitelisting process will then follow, where you can pre-register for the PreSale.

Our crowd sale will follow in May.

Just Registered in whitelist I Hope I can get a 25% discount, did I understand correctly that in the second wave the minimum participation is $ 500? And in the first wave of 5,000 dollars?

Just Registered in whitelist I Hope I can get a 25% discount, did I understand correctly that in the second wave the minimum participation is $ 500? And in the first wave of 5,000 dollars?

You are right, there are 2 different sales here that are happening, both with discounts, the pre-sale which is done on the invitation and is still open with contributions starting from 5000 USD and discounts of 25%.

As well as the public sale which has the minimum contribution of 500 USD the discounts will range from 15% to 10% to 5%.

As you have registered we will be in touch soon.

I can guide you to the white paper summary which includes a break down of these discounts I am talking about, follow this link and select whitepaper summary. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3058528.0

Okay thanks for the quick answer I don't have money right now that's why I am asking for the exact date, if I register to the whitelist do I need to join the ICO ? I mean I am not 100% sure if I want to join this ICO I need to take some time to think first but I don't want to miss the 25% discount.

If you get a confirmation e-mail for the pre-sale and aren't able to contribute on time (dates to be announced), you will miss the 25% bonus, however you can still participate in the crowd sale

[andreibi]

I like the fact that the people and the company behind this project has more than five years experience in pharmaceutical logistics. They already know how important schedules and timelines are.

Yes, good observation.

12/20 Top pharma companies are using SkyCell and are running implementation projects also which is very exciting.

That's the thing here, if one should invest here, it has the least risk of losing capital among several ICOs being held.


By the way, who are the newbies commenting here? Are you part of the staff? You all seem fake, sorry.


It would be nice if someone translate this news broadcast.

Oh okay I see man, I will register to the pre-sale then but I am not so sure if I can make it. I don't have much ETH and I am planning to use it to invest in other coin during this month and then make some profit to invest in this project, I hope I will be able to have a few ETH to invest when the time comes
