Apparently all tokens are unlocked one week after the sale ends. You can find how polyswarm will use company tokens in the whitepaper.

The idea is good, but I as an investor confused at least Capa $50 million Studied whitepaper and did not understand why this amount.
The hardcap of $50m was devised so if they received maximum funding they could allocate $27,255,000 to protocol and software development $7,245,000 to legal costs, $6,810,000 to marketing, $5,160,000 to tax costs, $2,030,000 to operational overheads and $1,500,000 to office expenses.
It is broken down on their Token Sale Proceed Allocation chart on the home page.
In the end hardcaps are all about "nice to haves" having 28m for development is great but i'm pretty sure they can get by if need be with less, nor do i imagine legal costs will run them that high. In the end the hardcap is made with buffers to keep things running smooth. For that matter i'd imagine their softcap, pretty much covered everything and also had some buffer to protect them from unforseen issues. The difference is maybe they dont have 20 devs or whatever they had planned maybe they stick to a smaller number with fewer salaries, time will tell.
In the end all that matters is hitting softcap and financial viability.
ICO is still on? I am not seeing any sign for ICO closure in the website. However it would be nice if they hit 26 mil in the last minute if it not yet closed. Looking forward for the next steps and announcements from team now.

Polyswarm is one of the projects that should eventually help to convince governments of the advantages of decentralized / blockchain systems. The problem I see is that many of them are just too old to understand let alone participate how the world will develop even in the near future. While many think that the youngest generations need education about blockchain, I think it's the older generations that urgently require education because they mostly determine via policies and voting what our world will look like in the near-term. They might be wasting our valuable time by preserving the stagnant status quo.
I totally understand your point, you know sometimes it isn't easy embracing new changes and in this case the change isn't a minor one decentralized/blockchain system is the future, hopefully Polyswarm will help change the paradigm of the older generation.
Embracing the change isn't the only option you have if your are skeptical. Letting it simply happen is also a possibility
Rejecting it is irresponsible.If I don't understand something, I'll just keep quiet. And if I'd like to to comment, I'll study the subject first. Most of these politicians have no clue. Did you listen to the SEC CFTC hearing where one grandpa needed an explanation about what "mining" is? ......

That's what I call a FOMO: Over 1mio in the last 24h, there are probably some fear to miss the train :-) Still you have 5 hours, then it is too late
Wow. I am also seeing this just now. It crossed the milestone of 25 mil and heading towards 26 mil. Lets see how this is ending now. I am very happy that I am following this project from earlier days.
I did not expect that lol. I thought that the rate would be near $25 million on the last day. It seems that people don't want to lose this chance to get extra tokens with the bonus while it is on the main sale.
Certainly great to see such sudden steps taken, total investment gathered so far is really well and are good signs to hold the nectars for a while

That's what I call a FOMO: Over 1mio in the last 24h, there are probably some fear to miss the train :-) Still you have 5 hours, then it is too late
It happens from time to time. Right before an ICO is finished you can observe a huge increase in new money coming in. It seems, some people tend to wait until it's almost to late to make their decision.
The downside to this is limited bonus just before the ICO finishes, however; you are right - alot of investors aren't sure hence why it's a last minute rush.
I think you're better off finding an exciting project with real life solving problems and backing it from the beginning, pre-ico . you get the most for your money usually with an added bonus (pre-ico)
The lower bonuses are the reason why I don't understand this last-minute rush. But maybe they are willing to pass on the pre-ICO bonuses and rather want to see if the project gets enough money to go on.
Probably, some investors might have noticed the project recently or they are making use of crash in crypto coins price in the recent past. Looking for 26+ mil now. Good luck team.

Yeah, what a good morning. Just checked the Website and what did i see? $25.54M!!!! they did it! 50% of the hardcap, i think that milestone was psychologically very important. congratulations
Wow, very impressive statistics.
There is only 9 hours left, I wonder if we can hit the 28M mark.
Another interesting article on the Nectar token and the project in general.

We should be able to see a boost now that the whole market is recovering nicely (except for eth
) It had a good run and the amount raised is really good given the market situation.I just can't really understand why eth has refused to pick up unlike other alts even btc is doing fine is there anything going on in the background? Polyswarm probably ended if I am right??

Lol talk about investors taking advantage of the bull market to get into some big FOMO investments reallyy didn’t see it happening bu expect d it post ico now that the market is bullish. Good to see people are still realizing hat the project is and why it should be in demand

On the contrary, not to late though. They can still buy on an exchange immediately it is listed. But the only down side to that is it comes with no bonus

Individuals are indecisive and people tend to be skeptical in a lot of projects, most wait to see the outcome of what they intend to invest before investing, real investors delve in after making their research and find the project fulfilling, it all depends on individual personalities

I believe it is a carefully designed replacement for this market that will continue to push threat detection forward.I like the idea.
Correct, the idea is phenomenal, we're in the global age and it will keep getting bigger with every new innovation and technology that comes in, hence the polyswarm project will have more market to feed and once it becomes known, it will be a global package

Great article I found, written by Lisa Winning about polyswarm.

Great article mate. What I like is the fact that she had to really explain how the platform works by recruiting talent through meritocracy and building anti-malware engines that compete to offer protection. Good job https://www.forbes.com/sites/lisawinning/2018/03/17/how-this-startup-is-fostering-inclusion-through-the-blockchain/#4df38cbd3269
