One of the main obstacles we face in this industry is the safety of our investments.
How will Hoard help me feel confident that my assets are protected?

This idea seems interesting to accelerate the cryptocurrencies through mobile wallet and put all favorite in one place. I think this ICO is looking attractive to give try as it has chance to grow rapidly and team profile is also looking attractive.

Thank you. We felt it was best to build an actual product before launching this sale. While only in beta, we’re weeks away from a full blown launch of the wallet.

make a new innovation about banking, it's quite difficult, and you need professionals to create a new system that defeats all the old banking systems that you think are expensive and slow, this is great as long as your program works perfectly, I am waiting for the next development

We stand firm believing the ICOs looking to disrupt the financial sectors should build bridges, not buildings, and that’s exactly what we aim to do.

I believe the team in this project is professional. although there are many similar projects and high market competition. I believe the development team has smart ideas to develop the project and compete with others.

I am curious to learn more about how the payments to merchants work and how that ties into the Mission Statement.  In a landscape that is less tolerant of cryptocurrencies such as India at the moment, can the Hoard app be used to turn my crypto into Rupee payments to merchants already?  If not, when do you see this feature being available potentially? 

In my mind, something like this could be a real difference maker in terms of the legislation that gets passed to bridge the gap between "old thinking" against crypto, and the new wave of adopters in the Indian market.

We’re prepared to work with regulators in other countries where applicable. The goal of the crypto to fiat transaction is to enable crypto holders to spend using crypto but businesses and merchants receive as their national currency without a bank or card issuer in the middle.

Timeline for this in other nations beyond the USA hadn’t been defined but were aiming for early next year.

Hoard, after reading more and more about the project is definitely bringing a new system and solution into the Cryptosphere! In saying this, I would love to know why Proof of Service/Proof of Stake was chosen? I found that with although PoS solves many concerns with regards to higher speed, efficiency and less hardware, it opens up other areas of concern.

Do you find the vulnerability aspect of Proof of Service/PoS a problem? For example, an individual with enough money will invest exclusively into the potential destruction of this system can do easily by investing money, as opposed to Proof of Work where one would also need to invest money, time, expertise, hardware and electricity.

How do you also mitigate against risks of attacks in your system? The thinking here is that if fewer people are in charge of keeping the network alive, one would automatically think it would be easier to organise a 51% attack and therefore, power is centralised in the hands of a few individuals.

Kind Regards,

Hi Brian. We’ll be relying on the hashing power and security of Ethereum when we launch. We’ve deliberated at length about creating our own blockchain, likely a clone of ethereum but still leveraging their networ date transactionsk. It hasn’t been decided.right now we’re relying on Ethereums smart contract maturity, dev community, and hash.  We didn’t want to make the mistake of so many new coins creating their own blockchain, PoW, without the support of a large community in place.

When are you launching the iPhone and Android Alpha version of the app? And What functionality will it have at its release?

Both iOS and Android are currently running in Beta through TestFlight and the google play store. The production release should be out in a few weeks. We’re targeting mid to late October.

The very first production release will Support Bitcoin and Ethereum blockchains with front end support for the top 50-100 MC coins on those chains.

Within that first release you’ll be able to create a wallet, send funds to that wallet, send peer to peer transactions on chain and send to device contacts, email address, phone numbers to anyone in the world. They won’t need the app or a crypto wallet to initiate the transaction.

Kinda like Venmo, but crypto.

staking pool is one of the best to increase our coins as a daily rewards
in the staking pool once we added our coins means there is no necessity to keep our system on
once we added our coins to staking pool internet connection is in on or off staking process will be going

You wrote, "We do not build a bank, we are inventing banking." There are a lot of projects on cryptobanks on this site. What is the difference between your project and other projects?

We took a step back to look at truly fundamental issues were up against in the crypto-economy and traditional finance. The biggest takeaways we decided to focus on were speed, reliability, support and experience.

Speed. Our second layer is being built to compete with lightning and raiden. Assets need to move at the speed of WiFi if we’re going to compete with consumer fintech products but keeping inline with censorship resistance and  decentralization were very important. Sending bitcoin across chain works great but we can improve upon that experience while maintaining possession of our keys we’ve leveled up.

Reliability. People use banks for a myriad of reasons but the most important reasons are two fold. 1. Is trust. A bank customer knows the deposit made will be there when they return. 2. It just works. We don’t have to think about paying a bill, moving money, saving funds, writing checks, or swiping cards. The system has worked for 2 centuries now. We’re approaching everything we do as something you don’t have to think about. It just works and it can be trusted, even in a trustless ecosystem.

Support. Customer support is horrible in this industry. Even the biggest company in the space has some of the slowest and most unreliable customer support. Our customer support team is as much our product is the app. Email, chat, and soon will offer phone support (once we can afford it).  I don’t want a single user to feel left out, labeled as a ######## our forgotten about.

Experience. Probably the single most important element is our user experience. While we integrate with banks, we do not want to become one. I worked for one for many years and know both sides of their experience. We have no plans to offer checking accounts, credit and loans, debit cards, ATMs, or brick and motor stores. We’re disrupting this space by not building band-aids like crypto cards. We’re introducing tech anyone can use, any business can benefit from, and any market can absorb. Combine his with private transactions with zero knowledge proofs and we’re a viable option for both the average consumer and the crypto OG.

Lastly, our fiat system enables us to move cash at the speed of WiFi too. Faster than any bank and faster the any crypto-bank. Visa takes 3-5 days to settle for a merchant. We settle in 1 second. Most crypto-banks rely on blocktimes, we’re developing a second layer to move assets as fast as cash. I’ll end with this. We’re open source and available to contribute to, fork, test and audit. Name me a bank willing to give that up?

Thanks for the question. A really great one.
