[ANN][CITY] City Chain - Blockchain for the Smart City Platform

[citychain]

City Chain is the blockchain that powers the Smart City Platform. A decentralized platform empowering global citizens in the modern era. City Coin (CITY) is the means of value exchange, yet the Smart City Platform will be supporting multiple cryptocurrencies (including Bitcoin) as a means for payments and other operations.

Notes

The goal of City Chain is not to be a competing currency to other cryptocurrencies, but to be an enabler for utilizing blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies at a broader and wider scale than exists today.

Are you going to disclose your team members? This project should not be scared in showing their faces if they really want to implement the usage of their coin to their so-called Smart City located in Norwary. This is a great example of how blockchain changes the way of life of a particular community. But credibility is important to know if the project is running legit. So if it's not too much to ask, can you publish the faces and their profiles of who are behind this project?

Thank you for the feedback, much appreciated! Have added link to the City Chain Foundation as link number two, it has some of the members and more will be announced later. Here is the link again: https://citychain.foundation/

So, if this project is for smart cities, which are not existed in the world at the moment and there are no any dates when at least one of them will be started, when your token will give profits to your investors.

This looks like a very cool project! The association with Liberstad, which is physical and real, gives this chain distinct qualities totally absent in the majority of projects. I will download and checkout the client. Where can I get coins? Is there a faucet of sorts to try it out and perhaps start staking?

[akaman]

So, if this project is for smart cities, which are not existed in the world at the moment and there are no any dates when at least one of them will be started, when your token will give profits to your investors.

Seems like the project is closely associated with both Liberstad and Liberland. Liberstad and a very real thing. Whether it will become a "smart city" is an open question, but the idea of placing their land registry etc on the blockchain is an easy first step.

Also, I cannot find that they did an ICO and therefore have any investors. Where can we even buy these coins?

Edit: Duch, just noticed the link to exchanges now... Seems like this is more like an offer to buy, than a real exchange. When can we see listing on existing exchanges?

Hi and thank you for the comment! City Chain will not only be for private cities, or even new cities, existing cities and communities can benefit as well. There are many services a citizen receive today in a city, and those are often services with cumbersome software and procedures. Additionally they are built on trust, without the ability to perform independent or personal verification and validation. We're also building solutions that will be valuable to merchants, small and large, around the globe.

Thank you for the positive feedback! We did not do an ICO, and have funded the development with our own funds and time thus far. It is based on the fantastic work done by everyone contributing to the Stratis Platform, with improvements and modifications done by us. We also contribute back to Stratis Platform as much as possible.

As of right now, Liberstad is selling coins using CoinPayments, and you can give donations in fiat using Donorbox and receive CITY as token of appreciation. Additionally a new exchange is under establishment and development, named Liberstad Block Exchange (LBX). It will feature some crypto-currencies, and in the future it will become a crypto-company stock exchange as well.

So, if this project is for smart cities, which are not existed in the world at the moment and there are no any dates when at least one of them will be started, when your token will give profits to your investors.

If this is the thought, then countless projects are still producing or thinking about producing things that there is no adoption or even application in the world, anyway, the idea of City Chain is good.

[doedz]

a total of 13,736,000,000 (distributed over the next 200 years) of City Coin was premined,

200 years is not a short time, maybe I also stand in this forum will die at the age of 50 years. LOL
I might be impatient to look forward to 200 years of age unless my age is raised from EDO TENSEI Ninjutsu at NARUTO. LOL

LOl, 200 years is a very long period in such extremely fast changed crypto world.
And, I doubt that how City Chain can be competitive with other projects, like CIVIC.

You are a Civic trader also in Binance and Bittrex, right?
It looks like you also followed ICO from the Civic.

I have been disappointed with CiviC because this account is not the same as what I expected when trading at Bittrex. dammnnnnn !!!

It is very hard to predict the future, but we did this with the hope and intention that City Chain will continue to grow and be developed well beyond our own timelines. If we are all so lucky, technology might give us long lives.

[citychain]

And, I doubt that how City Chain can be competitive with other projects, like CIVIC.

Thanks, we do think that we have great potential and the team will be very capable of delivering the software and services needed for the platform to be a success. CIVIC is an interesting and useful ecosystem for identity, with a different focus on identity compared to City Chain. The identity part of City Chain, is not so much about KYC, but instead building trust and relationships based on your self-proclaimed identity. For KYC scenarios where a business needs to have verified government issued identity, we might look to integrate with partners that provides KYC services. Thanks again for following! =)
