pls, 100% bonus is unfair and conceives failure risk.

It's obviously disadvantage not only for late stage contributor, but also organizer's sell at late stage as a results.

The bonus angle of trustworthy ICOs is very gentle. They deliberately  handle even 5% bonus, the max is about 20%.


Hello, it's my impression.

It was really interesting article, and attractive.

Frankly, I cannot judge the validity. perhaps, no one can.

We have no choice but to test it by practice.


Because it looks too profitable story, I thought it might be ponzi scheme.

But I think it cannot be understood by anyone including organizers.


In my conclusion as of now, I will contribute to it to verify the coming fact by myself.



ps:
The small population of the thread and telegram mind me a little.

It seems that legacy media picked up the project, but it's not important for me, for sale, for project.

Team and I have to make a good holders club day by day, step by step.




Please let us know what you think about our tontine-style bonus strategy for early buyers and holders:

https://blog.tontinetrust.com/the-ton-token-sale-aligning-buyer-incentives-through-holder-bonuses-tontine-style-3908c84e8c15

TLDR: We are rewarding early buyers of our TON Tokens not using discounts, but using substantial bonuses that are paid out on a monthly basis to Holders. If anyone sells, they forfeit remaining bonuses which then get shared amongst the remaining Holders, increasing their bonuses dramatically.

However, to be honest,  I cannot imagine how you can do it without existing ones. Huh Huh Huh


Who can invent it in your team?


It's very interesting, but challenging.

Thank you for sharing informatin. Are you team?
Pension scheme is changing?

Auctus started accepting investor money as a B2B platform.

2 days after TontineTrust finished filing our patents and published our whitepaper, they announced that they were stopping their sale and reviewing their business plan to focus on a more consumer centric proposition. They now seem to be offering some form of hybrid human/robo advisory platform - far removed from their original concept and if it will change yet again who knows?

You may not have Retirement Income Journal at the top of your morning reading list, and neither do your parents but this is where your parents financial advisors (if they are first class) get all the best information.

They have just covered a major in-depth study of Tontine Trust including carrying out interviews on Tontine Trust with many North American retirement funding industry experts.

While it is very nice to get featured in Cointelegraph etc (hint hint), the normally very conservative US retirement industry is starting to get excited about what we are building. This ultimately is the best the barometer of how successful the Token Sale can be.  Grin Grin

Great article by Retirement Industry Expert William Borton, Managing Principal at W.R. Borton & Associates

To Live Better Longer, you may soon find yourself investing in a tontine - 12/18/2017 11:22 pm ET

"In a tontine, the investors act like their own insurance company, sharing the risk among themselves, saving thousands in annual costs, and allowing the capital to be invested in a sensible spread of investments which have a much better chance of beating inflation.

Over the years, as members of the tontine die off, their share is distributed among the other members in the form of mortality credits. This means that the longer a member lives, the more monthly income they will receive. Talk about a hedge against inflation!

I, for one, am looking forward to seeing what sort of rock-solid product this Gibraltar company will be bringing to our shores next year. I will be watching closely to see if Tontines fulfill their potential to help me and my generation “Live Better, Longer”.

Sop let's say my local insurance guy wants to sell these, he's going to have to concern himself with this token, too?

Yes. From the whitepaper I quoted before:

Quote
These Global distribution partners seeking to market our Tontines, shall first be required
to purchase and lock down TON$ with a value equal to 5% of monthly expected referral
volumes. This stake shall act as a surety deposit for Tontine Trust to protect against the
risk of advisors miss-selling to members.

So your local insurance guy has a financial incentive to offer the tontine (amongst other products) that gives him a competitive commission and his customers 30 to 40 percent more revenue. But say you don't even ask the local intermediary and instead buy TON tokens yourself and buy into a tontine:

Quote
TON$ holders which are intending to invest in the Tontines themselves can utilise this
Partner staking system to generate a 5% bonus for themselves by staking their TON$
and using their own partner code when joining the Tontine. This may be the first
legitimate retirement product in history where the saver immediately gets more capital
value upon investment (105%) rather than seeing their capital value immediately
depleted by up to 30% due to fees. Accordingly, TON$ Holders not using an Advisor are
rewarded for holding the TON$ if they invest in the Tontines.

Do you have any plans to take on partners in distribution so you can be bought side by side with "classical" products?
Would be great to give customers some degree of comparability.

Yes, there is a reserve in tokens that will be used to initially incentivize distributors to offer the product along with the other products in their portfolio to their customers. After that initial period tontinetrust is going to pay these commissions out of the fees they are taking in.

I imagine that to be interesting moments when the retail customer realizes how competitive tontines are compared to the current products.

That makes sence. So what technologies will you be using for oricals (chain link?) and what about the tech behind biometrics?

Referring to biometrics please see page 22 to 24 of the non-technical whitepaper linked above.

Basically we cannot exclusively rely on biometrics (yet?) and therefor have to use a mix of several identification techniques described there.

Do you think this will be useful one day? In my country, retired people dont care too much about their money, they are mostly want to spend their time with their family.

Well to be honest tontines are only the second best retirement solution.

The most superior one is a loving and caring family with resources willing to take care of the old generation. But unfortunately many people are not that lucky and are not in that situation. And since we cannot create care-taking families with crypto-technology we resorted to re-creating tontines and bringing them back to the market Wink.

Primarily the Smart Actuary (set of Smart Contracts) seeks proof of life (rather than proof of death) by sending notifications to the user requesting regular check-ins using biometric to authenticate members and confirm their "liveness". There are several solutions for this referenced in the whitepaper.

We will also connect to third party oracles which can provide authoritative death notices. There are many projects developing these at the moment but we will also develop our own.

An example would be an oracle that tracks the US Social Security Death Index

Haven't understood that token strategy fully yet but I really really wish you guys success as I do know about tontines and would go for it myself.

Also, it is about time someone takes on the pension funding industry (and wipes out their greedy profits) and offers a reasonable alternative.

[UPDATE: token airdrop is live:
https://blog.tontinetrust.com/tontinetrust-airdrop-campaign-4c5a9d7e02ec]



[update: please note our tontine-style bonus programm for early buyers and holders:
https://blog.tontinetrust.com/the-ton-token-sale-aligning-buyer-incentives-through-holder-bonuses-tontine-style-3908c84e8c15]


TontineTrust is proposing a solution to the current global pension funding crisis

Current centralised pension products such as life annuities deliver low returns mostly caused by the high costs charged by Insurers which act as centralized “guarantors".

TontineTrust is developing a platform which solves the costly central guarantor problem by creating peer-to-peer tontine structures administered by an unbiased, mathematically robust smart-actuary.
 
Our Fully Regulated peer-to-peer tontine issuing ecosystem will deliver:

  • 40%+ greater financial benefits to the hundreds of millions of global consumers spending ~$350BN per year on retirement income solutions,
  • a utility token which incentivizes IFAs, RIAs & Independent Partners & Advisors to take our no-load tontines to the global marketplace, and
  • an un-biased, self-correcting, autonomous smart-actuary which can be trusted to act to in the best interest of the tontine members.


Details about the project can be found on our website
