Pre-sale cap: 999 ETH , better asking for 99999.99 ETH? Bitcointalk is the heaven of every scammer and sucker of this world.
@Emadm How person like you know that much about crypto and ICOs, ETH, if you are not an old scammer (dont tell me:my friend idea etc.....) and btw links you provided means nothing.
Dear Dolores,
I agree with you that there are major issues with the current financial system and extraction of rents from people to concentrate in the hands of asset owners who hoard the wealth.
This is the reason that the economy is starting to stagnate and radical and extreme ideologies are gaining in traction, leading to increasing hatred and fear.
We discuss this in the white paper and the excerpt that can be found here:
https://medium.com/ananas-blog/extremism-and-mount-stupid-5afa0eec7d4eEssentially the "American Dream" or equivalent is no longer available to too many and the result of this is anger and a demand for change, while those in power wish to maintain the status quo.
But the question is how can this be adjusted? If you listen to the Bloomberg podcast I linked at the end I discuss an initiative I am advising to give free biometric smartphones to refugees to help them reclaim their identity and discussing with major aid agencies.
All we can do is try to make a difference.
The pre-sale cap is in line with similar projects and is a hard cap. For example, there is this nice project here:
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-rootproject-restructure-capitalism-pre-ico-live-2007772 that intends to also register as a charity and has a 2,500 cap. I actually think they are more ambitious than us.
In terms of what I know.. I don't know that much but have been learning for the last few years with the rest of the team.
One of the advantages of my current role is that I have been able to speak to some of the top experts in this field.
I also have a degree in Maths and Computer Science and have been programming for the last 16 years in various languages, which has definitely helped.
I will be trying to make some contributions of original thought in the coming weeks on our blog and other sites, particularly in the area of how charities can create market economies to self-fund and create real value and change.
If you look at the white paper it tries to link to best practices and ideas from the likes of Vitalik Buterin, William Mougyar and Naval Ravikant wherever it can to make sure we are not making errors.
If we are, please let us know, all help is appreciated.
