Hi there and thanks for your question! As listed in our whitepaper and on our website, our soft cap is $8m (and that has been reached, allowing us the green light to launch our high-speed crypto and fiat exchange in mid-2018). We set an ICO target of $68m and a hard cap of $88m to allow us flexibility and give us "stretch-goals" to kickstart our ambitious 5-year roadmap which includes, a green energy mining center, a global ecommerce platform, a global merchant payment platform, a global KYC verification platform, an ICO gateway, and as a by-product of offering up to 16 fiat currency on-ramps (several international banking licenses - which are not cheap!).

As you can see from our roadmap, we've got lots to do in the next 5 years and giving ourselves those higher 'stretch-goals' for fund-raising will help us shorten that timeline significantly, if we can raise those funds. If not, the exchange launches as planned (since we're already up to $12.6m raised) and we use funds generated from the operation of the exchange to fund our roadmap projects.

In regards to unsold tokens:

Tokens are allocated as 80% to ICO public sale pool, 10% user referral program, 1.5% advisors, 8.5% team. Token metrics are based on public pool as a priority.

All unsold tokens after the ICO are burned based on public ratio 80:20. Ensuring fair value for all contributors.

So, in really simple terms, it's best to think of it like this:

Whatever number of tokens are sold during the ICO is the single largest determinant of what eventual TOTAL token supply will be, as the public sale constitutes 80% of total supply.

Therefore, for example, if we only sell 500K tokens, then that means that 500K is now 80% of total supply, only leaving 125K for the other 20% and meaning that all tokens above the 625K amount will be burned, greatly reducing supply.

This is a really easy way to think about it. So, at present, it's hard to say what the FINAL total token supply will be (until the ICO ends). But what we can say for sure, is that whatever amount of tokens are sold during the ICO, this # will automatically become 80% of total supply, thus determining total supply amount. Hope this helps to clarify and simplify things for your calculations. 🙂

Hey there!

Nauticus is so much more than just a crypto exchange. We aim to create a financial services ecosystem to provide user-friendly, efficient and secure crypto banking, payments and eCommerce solutions. I'd invite you to have a look at our whitepaper, which explains our plans in detail: https://storage.googleapis.com/assets-nauticus-platform/NauticusWhitepaperOfficial.pdf

Main exchange advantages will be:

- high-speed exchange with over 1m tx/sec
- interfaces for both mom and pop-type users, as well as advanced traders
- a focus on having LOTS of fiat on-ramps We launch our exchange in mid-2018 with 7 fiat currency options, including USD, EUR, JPY, HKD, AUD,
CNY and ZAR, and will feature 16 fiat currency on-ramps within 1 year.
- also, we will launch with 100+ cryptos and expand to 300+ within 1 year as well.

Regarding token listing:

Our tokens listings go through a selection criteria matrix to ensure that only quality tokens are placed into our platform, encouraging coins that need the support and space to trade.

A number of criteria are considered. Not only trade volume and demand, but also cap size, business management of the coin, brand presence and marketing status. Is the coin viable? Does it have use case? Does it have business case, etc.?

We are currently open for Token listing on our exchange with an early bird offer. If you have a token you'd like us to consider listing, please get in touch with us at [email protected].

Hello! Nice project, but I noticed that the hard cap is very high, what will be the unsold tokens?

It'll be the only exchange to feature over 100 cryptocurrencies and 7 fiat currencies, it is registered with Australian regulators, low transaction fees enabled by the blockchain mining center, and many more advantages. However, Nauticus is not only an exchange, but will serve as an ICO gateway, and include global KYC verification and a fast and secure payment system for merchants.

We hope everyone is enjoying the beta version of Nauticus exchange! https://exchange.nauticus.io/

The Nauticus exchange beta version seems quite good. What will be the main advantages of this exchange? What will be policy for new ICO tokens?

You have a beta version of your exchange and you don't bother to mention it here?  Jee... do your own marketing
