Ok thank you. I have one last question.

If you buy 880 WTT and one mining rig from "PARTNER", what happens if you want to sell token later? Why is rent only option? This doesn't make sense to me because I assume there will be some kind of trading exchange.

Regarding your first question:
Because purchased tokens represent your right to use Giga Watt facility's capacity, renting it freely for 50 years. Also tokens can be used to accommodate your own miners at Giga Watt's facility (which is not available at the moment due to overwhelming orders). Please, read forward on our website https://giga-watt.com or https://cryptonomos.com/wtt/

Regarding your second question:
Yes. It is already written in Giga Watt's White Paper – Risks section that Giga Watt can't assure that all tokens will be rented out, but they will try their best to work this matter out.

Regarding the last question:
The whole 34.5 MW capacity worth of tokens won't be issued immediately. As you can see on our website's Projected Timeline, the tokens will be issued in batches, with every batch released, an equivalent number of GigaPods will be constructed.

If you have any other question or inquiries, please, either read Giga Watt's FAQs: https://cryptonomos.com/wtt/faq/ or ask them here: [email protected] 

NO. That gives you nothing else than the tokens, that is all. Now you can rent your tokens if you want. But you don't own anything else than the tokens.

If you have 880 WTT you can rent them to a person who brought the miner but who have not enough tokens.
If you have both token and miner great you can mine 100% for yourself.

What is difficult to understand ?

No I just try to help you man. I am Not associate with nobody.

I'm not sure you are that helpful nor a good salesman, then. Are you associated with WTT at all?

Sorry I have no time to go through it all. And also if I miss understood you. There is videos from Giga watt who may help you understand  the all concept.

And part of the money from the tokens goes for the pods constructions. That is why you have the tokens for 50 years. Those pods have 50 years life time.

I'm not sure why you think I'm not interested in mining? The first question I asked about was mining. But it's important to know what the incentive is for all stakeholders.
And yes, I went to the websites and read the whitepaper already. I may feel it wasn't explained enough and want more clarity.

If I'm interested in mining, why not just buy the equipment and host at Giga Watt facilities without messing around with the tokens?
It's because you pay Giga Watt upfront to realize energy savings over time, right? If that's wrong, then please explain.

If I'm not interested in mining, and I buy the WTT tokens but no equipment. OK I saw where you can rent out the tokens, but this is just euphemism for speculation, right?

And why 34.5 MW capacity issued when Giga Watt only has 3MW capacity?

Thanks.

Ok but have you at least been on the Cryptomonos website or even the giga watt website lol

https://cryptonomos.com/wtt/
https://giga-watt.com/

And on top of that you want answers about things you are not interested in ?
Everything is explained on the website. Easy to understand.

You can rent those tokens to the miners if you don't want to invest in mining equipment.

If I buy 880 WTT (current cost $968) that will give me ownership of 1 litecoin miner capacity, right?
But I have to buy the rig on top and realize $968 in energy savings for return on investment, not considering what income is made from mining. Is that correct?

If I don't buy any mining equipment from the "PARTNER" what is the value other than speculating the token price goes up?

Thanks.

Hi I am looking to invest in upcoming ICOs, I have general questions about WTT though. Can you reply without boilerplate white paper response, please?

First, Giga Watt facilities have 2.25 MW of capacity (0.75 MW more under construction), correct? Why are you issuing 34.5 MWs of tokens?
Second, why do I need WTT token when I have to buy the mining rigs on top? This seems like immediate lump-sum payout to Giga Watt in exchange for maybe/maybe-not long term savings on energy costs.
Is that correct?

If I'm not interested in mining, then what value is there other than trading the tokens and speculating on them?

Thanks.

I am pretty sure that even if they want to give a full answer to this tax questions, they can't because the laws in place do not describe how to treat bitcoins. You are right that there is a potential thread but this will only be confirmed when the respective laws will be introduced.

Its not my job to provide that, its GIGAs job to do so once they are asked these kind of questions...

The root of my anger lies in the fact, that they can't give me or us any informations and they NEED to know the answers otherwise it is just foolish to open up business to Non US residents...

They are not even able to provide an answer to the simple question on who is paying us? They are managing the miners, they host them, they even set the pool. They deduct their fees from daily payouts (that means they receive; on THEIR addresses; the incoming cryptos), meaning they pay us. Is it even considered a personal business anymore or are we just handing over our money as an investment and receive dividends from it....


As long as we can't choose pools, receive the payouts directly and pay giga afterwards, its not even classified as a business in the end since our involvement is 0 (other than handing over money)


They say, if we rent out our Tokens, we get payed by the miner, but in real life they are paying us, since we never interact with another miner...




See it as you wish, but I will not continue to point out the legal flaws.  You can of course say, I am the one who should bring documents to the table clarifying, but really it is Gigas job to assure everyone that these problems got inspected and solved in a way X or Y....

In the end do what you want, but a company collecting millions should be able to address these issues in a satisfying mater.

Actually we don't need your assurances but documentary proof that GigaWatt is infringing on U.S. tax laws by making remote hosting of mining equipment accessible to non-U.S. customers.

Yeah wrong wording.... I can assure you the IRS will not stand back and watch anyone evade taxes UNLESS it is in consensus with a double taxation agreement with another country!!!

It is a relief that we are only dealing with your belief. 

I read that, but that is not sufficient. Its a bit like the "legal high drugs" where they write not for human consumption on top. This does not safe them in case of a investigation.

And I can't believe the USA would simply stand by when people mine in the US, (use electricity in the US and generate coins "in the US") and sell the coins in europe. They want their part of the taxes.

Doesn't this clause in their White Paper cover the relevant U.S. taxes incurred, if any, by GigaWatt's customers?

I see your points. And I understand your worries. I will keep looking for more infos.

Well this does help a little bit (shocking that they were not able to provide that info yet)  but I was talking about a simple business venture. That you do not need a Money Transmitter License as a miner is right, but you still use your own hardware to produce a good. Even if it is not considered legal tender. See it as a chair. If you are a woodsman and you use your tools and wood to create a chair, this is a finished product worth X.  And therefore you need to pay Tax on the amount of X which will be Y.    If someone does not do that (and mining is nothing else) they will evade taxable income and GIGA is helping with that.


Look at Mossack Fonseca. They were charged in Panama with helping others to do tax evasion. Why would the IRS stop before GIGA. They still need to make sure they can identify all their customers equipment. If they can't do this simple thing, they are in trouble. Worst case the get shut down or sued such a high amount they need to and your shit is offline and gone for so long that by the time you will get it back (maybe) its not profitable.




I am kinda worried that everyone here, wants to mine, but has no idea what tax problems they might getting into if not done correctly. And GIGA did not make a lot of effort to clarify how they will conduct business in such a case. Everybody can have tokens they are anonymous and everyone can use false credentials or offshore companies or something else they might need to check. How do they do it, what are their measurements to prevent a lawsuit with some foreign entity?


I personally would love to place a lot of my miners their, but I need to make sure first if THEY know what THEIR duty is to prevent me from loosing money.
