[ANN][GIO] GOLD.IO DEX+DAC based on EOSIO! Hybrid Airdrop and MVP coming soon!

[GOLD.IO]

I assumed this would be a gold backed token, but I'm not seeing anything about that in the original post. Is it gold backed?

It's not a token at all. It's a decentralized exchange for gold backed tokens.

Exactly! Although, we may assign a part of the money raised in these rounds to provide it with gold. This is one of our growth scenarios, and as for any serious action we take the final decision will be made by our Community through voting.

How many tokens will you start with at launch? Has that been decided yet?

[Shoesouse]

Will there be mobile applications for this exchange eventually?

This would be great to have. I've never actually tried to use an app for an exchange though. It seems like there's usually so many options that it wouldn't do great on a small touch screen, anyone else care to share their experience?

I've used them on mobile before. I definitely prefer a desktop browser experience, but I'm that way with just about any platform.

Still in a pinch, having a decentralized exchange in your pocket at any time is pretty awesome.

Is there any sort of prototype made at this point? I'd love to see some sort of concept if not.

So how are you raising money to develop the DEx?

I dont think thats a bad idea but it could be very early on in the cycle of demand and interest in gold based tokens, or investments, holdings and so on.    Right this moment, I dont think the general public really cares about gold even one tenth of as much as they will in future.    So I wouldnt criticise any idea in that direction, I've no doubt its a growth market but you might need to make this project last a few years before it really has a chance of reaching a proper peak demand.

I just mean that in contrast to 2017 where BTC and crypto in general really saw the meters all hitting 11 in terms of interest and customer flow into various projects.   We are so far away from that and gold has potential but I think its years.   Gold itself has a decade long time scale to it

[Zvezdec]

I totally agree, the GOLD project.IO has unique features and is able to open new horizons for the gold market! Are there any restrictions for investors? I would like to wish to achieve this goal!

[GOLD.IO]

How many tokens will you start with at launch? Has that been decided yet?

The total supply for GIO is 3,018,735,360.00

Yes, with everybody in the world going mobile, it's definitely a thing to have, we are thinking about it, of course.

Yes, the MVP is being finalized right now, and you will see it in January already!

So how are you raising money to develop the DEx?

We've started with private funding to make sure we have proof of concept and MVP, now we are having small funding round and the first round of the lockdrop to raise awareness and support for the project.
You can find more info on the funding scheme in our FAQ on the website: https://gold.io/faq
And as for the airdrop, you can check out this article: https://medium.com/gold-io/the-first-gold-io-hybrid-airdrop-in-details-44bb26f711d

Hi. I've never actually participated in an airdrop before. I just need to register and hold EOS and I get 3 different kinds of gold backed tokens?

Yes, today is the early-bird time, but still, wouldn't think of it being way too far away. 2019 highly likely will be "the golden year" fueled by panic at the stock markets (here's the latest article on the topic - https://www.ccn.com/why-goldman-sachs-predicts-gold-will-climb-10-to-1425/). With crypto uncertainty, this sounds like the perfect marriage made in heaven, that's what we believe in.

Not really here in the FAQ you can find the description of the airdrop and the reasons why we chose this model along with other useful information, check it out! https://gold.io/faq

What made you guys decide to only have gold backed tokens? You think they're superior to more popular currencies like ETH and BTC?

[theydontcallmegenius]

What are your fees like compared to other decentralized exchanges? Are there any other advantages to using your DEx over the others?

[xoof]

What ways will you bring attention to this project? Will you be using any more traditional advertising platforms?

We will prioritize gold-backed tokens, but other types can also be traded. Why? Well, you saw all the market development in 2018 and the prices drop 60-90%. Stablecoins and tokens backed by the real assets can be great in these conditions - when the market is going red, gold-backed tokens have the minimum price, the price of underlying gold. And this price is not as volatile as that of stocks or crypto. So, for 2019 Goldman Sachs predicted at least 10% growth for gold. That means, a crypto portfolio which includes gold-backed tokens has at least one stable asset dedicated for growth no matter what is happening in the market
