Next week, our news, we will devote a story about our trip, we will always be ready to answer all your questions.

Good day!
We recorded on video how the second version of the MVP application works, for those who do not own phones on Android. This version helps to understand the principle of work. If you have a phone on Android, you can check our application yourself. Just join our telegram-channel, download the application on the link in the attached message and test! We will wait for your feedback.

Attention! This is an application emulator! The final version will differ (the design in alpha and beta versions will be different, the principle will continue: radar - find container - capture - information). To work on the application, conduct a large advertising campaign and create a server capable of running the application during the launch phase of the alpha version, we conduct pre-selling ARCUS tokens. Now they can be bought at the lowest price! 1 ARCUS = $ 0.01. More information on our website: https://arcus.city/arcus-en.html

Good afternoon!
Today we posted on our telegram channel the second version of the MVP application ARCUS. Our channel is already actively discussing this news! Join and you: t.me/arcuscity
In the second version of MVP on Android 7 should be displayed containers. We want to note that this is not the final version! Releases of new versions of the application can be observed on our telegram-channel. So subscribe and follow our news, and we will wait for your feedback!

Today we would like to talk more about the ICO.

ICO (Initial Coin Offering) is a new tool to attract investment in the project by issuing and selling its tokens to a wide range of investors with the subsequent goal of developing its project for the money received. Investors' interest lies in the fact that the tokens of successful projects are traded on crypto-exchange exchanges and, with the success of the company, bring a good profit. Investing in ICO is always a risky process, but for crypto investors there are many advantages.
1. Easy access of private persons to project financing
Almost anyone can become an investor of the project they like, only the presence of the necessary crypto currency and basic knowledge is necessary. Often the project sites have a detailed description of how to invest their money and get tokens of this project.
2. High profitability
With the success of the project, investors often receive super-profits. On the crypto-currency market there are no rare cases when in relatively short periods of time the tokens of successful projects grew in price by 1000% or more.
3. Low input threshold
You can invest almost any amount, for example, the price of one ARCUS token at the stage of pre-sale = $ 0.01. Such accessibility together with high profitability certainly fuel interest in this industry.

It's tempting, is not it? But do not forget, before investing money in the project, it is important to understand it. There are many sites that help evaluate the success of the ICO. Today we will tell you about some parameters that you should pay attention to.
1. The uniqueness of the project. What problem does the project solve? How many competitors do they have? Do you think the project is necessary and will it be able to cope with the task?
2. Objectives. Carefully study the Road map of the project. Do you understand all the goals? Do not be afraid to ask questions!
3. Scalability. Simply put, how do you think, how much will this project be relevant? To what extent it can grow.
4. White paper. It is there that the project is described. Do you understand everything? Is it all concrete? If you are confronted with vague wording, it is better to ask questions to the organizers. After reading White paper you should have a full idea of the project.
5. Financial component. The organizers of the ICO should tell you why they are collecting money, and you should understand what your investments will go to and what result you want to receive.
6. The concept is a product. Not all projects go to the ICO with the finished product. And this is normal: many developments require $ 1-2 million of investments, and the creators do not have such money, but the ideology of the new product should be a must for the ideologists. Developers attracting investments to ICO, are required to explain in detail how the product will work, thereby generating profits, how successfully to compete with existing ideas. The concept should be "licked" and described in such a way that everything could be understood even by an uninitiated person.
7. The team. These people are responsible for the implementation of the project. Read about them more, if you want, get acquainted - this will help you understand how responsible they are about implementing the project and assess their skills.

We are the ARCUS team. We will be pleased if you study our project, evaluate it and write your comments in the comments. Detailed information about the project on our official website: www.arcus.city.

Good evening friends, we have great news!
Let's remind, earlier service Metamask mistakenly blocked our site.
The question was settled, we were added to the white sheet. Now everyone can visit our site without any problems

Come to our website: www.arcus.city

We knowingly are interested in using the technology of augmented reality - this industry is actively developing. Now the augmented reality is known to people in many respects thanks to the beloved Snapchat, but soon the technology of augmented reality will help us in various areas of life: medicine, training, navigation, etc.

Recently, Google introduced the navigation mode in Augmented Reality in Google Maps at the I / O 2018 conference. In Google Maps, AR-navigation mode will appear, in which the user can see the hints on the route, superimposed on the images from the camera in real time. To do this, Google has developed a Visual Positioning System that combines map data, current location, Google Street View snapshots and camera image. Google Product Vice-President for AR, VR - Aparna Chennapragada does not announce the release date. It should be noted that Google is not the only ones who decided to use AR in the navigation application.

Blippar released the Augmented Reality Navigator on ARKit at the end of last year! AR City can already be downloaded from the App Store. Developers promise to develop software, adding new features. But since The application was created using ARKit, it requires an iPhone 6s / SE / iPad of 2017 or a more powerful device.

Popular in Russia free navigation application Yandex.Maps has received support for the new operating system iOS 11, and with it support for augmented reality as far back as September 2017. In version 9.6 of the program in the mode of the walking route a big blue button appeared, clicking on which you can get help in construction of the optimal route. Looks like help in the form of additional arrows showing the right direction to reach the destination.
We are pleased that AR-technologies are actively developing, we support all those who are interested in this field and we will happily communicate on this topic. Recall, ARCUS will use the technology of augmented reality to engage users in the game, increasing the level of their socialization. The entire gameplay will be built on AR: it is through the application that users will find virtual containers and open them, as well as virtual advertising, quest elements and much more will be used in the application.

Thank you

Good afternoon, the information about the team was in this thread. Please see page 2

Rubric: Summary of the week
This week:
1. About us have written several news sites. On the official website: www.arcus.city there appeared a section "Press about us" with links to press releases.
2. We actively led and continue to work on improving the prototype. A lot of time is spent on technical issues. (At the moment, the MVP version has detected "container jitter", and on some versions of Android, the application did not load containers the first time. We are actively working to eliminate these problems)
3. We started negotiations with HitBtc, C-CEX and OpenLadger DEX exchanges about listing our ARCUS token.
4. An application for Waves Lab was sent. The answer has not yet been received.

In the near future we plan:
1. Submit to the test the second MVP-version of our application
2. Conduct a presentation of the ARCUS project to several potential investors. (You too can get a presentation! Just write to us and we'll discuss all the details)
3. Meet with a potential advertiser, to discuss general questions about the test. (We will keep the city and the company in secret) If your company wants to participate in the test of the project, please contact us)

Bonus: Within the team there were discussions about the possibility of creating a Telegram-bot, to optimize the purchase of our tokens. Do you think that such a bot is necessary? Do you trust translations of such programs?

Thank you

Thank you for your opinion.

Ask questions about the project if they appear. We will be happy to answer

Hiiiii....
This is a good project....

The vision of this product is a good thing, the e-commerce market is very large, if there is a part of the project can be used in the field, that also can bring the very big returns, of course, this requires greater efforts to achieve, to succeed.

Good afternoon friends!

On May 22, 2010, laszlo bought of pizza to the 10,000 bitcoins(at that time it was 25 dollars). The course has changed, and now 10,000 bitcoins are a huge amount. But this act went down in history. 😊

We want to repeat! We will pay 10,000 ARCUS for the translation of our website and the White Paper in Korean, Chinese, Japanese and Spanish.
In total we are ready to give: 40 000 ARCUS! We do not have the right to guarantee the growth of our token, but in this case you will become a part of our history. 😉

We ask you to tell this to your friends and acquaintances. If among them there are translators in the languages we need, we will be grateful.

We want to tell you more about the areas with which our project is connected. Yesterday we found out the differences between VR and AR technologies, and today we want to talk about the world of advertising.

Annually in the world on advertising is spent more than 600 billion dollars! Every day a person sees and hears about 1000-3000 advertisements, but pays attention only to units. How do advertisers express themselves and become visible? There are three main directions of promotion:

1. Internet promotion
2. Autonomous promotion
3. Non-standard advertising (partisan marketing)

Internet advertising is not a separate category. In today's world, it's hard to imagine a person without a smartphone in their hands. More than 35% of all advertising budgets are spent on the promotion of the Internet. By 2020, analysts predict the growth of this indicator to 50%.

No less attention deserves to be promoted offline. Advertising on media sources, outdoor advertising (billboards, poles, etc.), All newsletters that you receive are autonomous. This advertising positively affects the recognition of the brand but it often turns out that it is expensive and not very effective against the background of a general "information noise".

Non-standard advertising is developed individually for a particular product or service.
It is created in many ways: an unusual place for advertising, a new advertising medium, an original way of transmitting information, etc. - everything that attracts the maximum number of people and causes the desire to interact with advertising, talk about it. Create your own advertising is not easy, so many marketers are constantly looking for new channels of communication with customers.

ARCUS - will help to cope with this problem! Players will themselves go to points of sale, search for virtual containers and receive the necessary information. The person receiving the bonus can immediately use it, which will increase the level of customer loyalty, as well as positively affect the traffic and conversion of advertisers. More information about the ARCUS project can be found on our website: https://arcus.city/arcus-en.html

The difference between VR and AR

Technologies of virtual and augmented reality began to actively enter the life of a person, but they are still confused. Today we will learn the difference between extended and virtual realities.

VR (virtual reality) is an artificially created 3D digital world that allows you to move a person anytime and anywhere. A person is immersed in a virtual environment, in helmets of virtual reality and using other special devices. This technology currently has the most powerful WOW-effect, is understandable and accessible to users. Important is the influence of the presence and sensation of immersion in another space, be it race, desert or anything that can embody the fantasy of a writer, designer and developer. Users feel the speed of the car, are afraid to fall from rocking and try to stroke the kitten in the same fictional world, perceiving it as real.

AR (augmented reality) is the technology of adding virtual information to the field of human perception, which is perceived as elements of real life. Thus, if in a virtual reality a person is in a completely digital environment that imitates the real world, then in the expanded reality the user remains in the surrounding space, but his experience is expanded by adding virtual components. You can interact with virtual objects as if they were near you. According to analysts, AR-market will surpass VR and will become one of the main technologies for three years.

The ARCUS application will use the Augmented Reality technology. Players will move around the city and, using smartphones, find virtual containers and open them. This technology allows you to be in the game in real time and directly interact with other participants. The ARCUS team is actively studying the technology of augmented reality to add additional game functions to the application. We think that this is very interesting.

And what do you think about the technology of augmented reality?

Friends! Wonderful news!

Today all subscribers of our Telegram-channel will be able to test the MVP-version of our application!
Do you want to be among the first? Urgently sign up for our channel: https://t.me/arcuscity.

Today at 18:00 (Moscow time) there will be information.

About purposefulness.

One of the qualities that unites the ARCUS team is the commitment.
For us, purposefulnessn is the ability to act according to the plans, in combination with the ability to overcome obstacles on the way. Now ARCUS has many goals: to collect investments for the Pre-ICO, to recruit a team of professionals, to finalize and launch the project, to hold the basic ICO, to popularize the project for the residents of Russia, and then the world. The goals are global, but we are sure that everything will turn out.
We are accustomed to actions.

In the middle of April our team was visited by an interesting idea: "It would be nice to hoist the ARCUS flag on top of the mountain, to declare itself!". Since then, this idea has become the goal. This action will be able to show that we will not deviate from the planned plans, that we will conquer at any cost.
On April 24 we received a manufactured flag and laid out a post in our social networks where they said: "Watch our activity and you will soon see our flag on the top of the mountain!". We keep our word! The ARCUS flag was placed on Mount Munku-Sardyk!
See photos in our social networks 😉:

The fulfillment of small goals motivates us, gives us the strength to realize larger tasks and to believe in ourselves. At the future we plan started an alpha-version.
We will be glad if you become a part of our project. Now the ARCUS token can be purchased at a price of only 0.01$. More information about the project on our website: https://arcus.city/arcus-en.html

We will be happy to answer any of your questions.

Today we will acquaint you with the technical director Oleg Rakhimov.


Oleg has worked as a programmer for more than 6 years, previously was the administrator of high-load systems. Has experience developing cross-platform applications. Crypto currency Oleg Rakhimov became interested in 2016, and when he first heard the idea of creating an application, ARCUS immediately joined the project. Today we interviewed Oleg Rakhimov.

- Good day Oleg. Tell me please, how are the successes with the launch of the application?
- To begin with, the very development of the application began three months ago. During this time, I managed to create an MVP application, now it is in the testing phase and approval of the final design. Next, I plan to start developing a business logic server and, in parallel, continue to work on developing the application to bring everything to the alpha version.

- What is the most difficult for you in creating an application?
- The first difficulty is that the Android is a multithreaded system and sometimes there can be conflicts when working with data that uses different threads. The second difficulty is geo-positioning. The sensors are known to be noisy and it is necessary to select the data filtering to obtain an acceptable result. But at the moment these stages have already been passed. There is a framework and there is no particular difficulty in creating an application, except for the lack of a good Android application tester in the team.

- You are a unique employee of ARCUS.CITY, but is it really enough for one serious programmer to launch such a serious project?
- Of course, you can write everything to one, but the question arises: for what period of time will this be done? We plan to recruit a team of professionals. To speed up the process, we need a developer on the web frontend and a web backend developer. On business logic, at least one developer on Golang. Also we do not have an application for MacOS. One person is needed there. And the second, as I said, from the programmer is a bad application tester that he wrote. You can only tell the tester where there may be potential errors in testing, not more. Many times I was convinced by someone else and by my experience in this. Therefore, we need testers at least 2 people one on the second application on the web. After launching the alpha version, we will need people already for technical support - at least 4 people for a shift mode of operation. Many people can say: why so much on tech support? I will not be burning people at work. Work on technical support exhausts psychologically so that the employee should be given at least a day of rest after one day of work on technical support, in total, 2 brigades out of 2 people are obtained. You also need a system administrator on the server. As the project grows and new areas are covered, the number of specialists will increase.

- Tell us about your achievements, both professional and personal.
- To begin with, I did not immediately come to the development of applications, I tried many professions, but eventually came to the conclusion that this is not mine. I was interested in computers since childhood. My father worked in the astronomical observatory and sometimes took me with him to work. There they calculated librations of the Moon and other things that were incomprehensible for me at that time on computers. The view of "Nairi" for me was then impressive. A car the size of a huge room with a bunch of colored lights with noise stuffing the results of calculations on paper fascinated. As a result, I came to programming, and I like doing it. Working in different spheres undoubtedly gave me a lot of experience in solving difficult problems. I have also always gotten used to getting started to the end. The ARCUS project inspires me now, I dedicate not only working days to it, but also weekends, but I'm sure it's worth it.

- Do you contribute your ideas to the project, or are you working "according to the scenario"?
- Ideas bring all the participants of the project. They are discussed and, or on their basis, an implementation strategy is developed, or they are rejected. "The given script" also exists - this is our Road map. Sometimes it is discussed, and it can be subject to various adjustments, but without it you can not survive in the cryptomir, it changes too quickly)))

- Thank you for your responses. We will watch your development. Maybe you want to say something to the readers at last?
- I invite everyone to participate in the creation of our project together. This is also interesting - to make it possible to receive crypto currency directly on the street from the application on the phone. Let's try to do it together)

Oleg Rakhimov will be able to answer any technical question on the ARCUS project. If you have any, please contact Oleg in any convenient way:

We will continue our acquaintance with our team. Today we will talk with the financial director Ilgizar Rakhmatullin.


Ilgizar has experience in banking, he is an expert in finance, securities and project management. In the financial markets since 2004. In 2011, he founded a business representative office of the Czech plant for the production of agricultural machinery, in 2015 he founded a chocolate factory from scratch. Ilgizar is a versatile personality, he has experience in creating business processes, economic models, marketing and sales. Today we talked with Ilgizar Rakhmatullin and interviewed him.

- Good afternoon Ilgizar, it's nice that you gave us time. I would like to start with this question: When did you become interested in crypto-currencies and what was the cause of this interest?
- For the first time I learned about crypto currency in the distant 2011, of course it was bitcoin. As now I remember its cost was within a few tens of dollars. My first attitude was in a negative light, I thought it was another pyramid or something like that. As an asset, I did not consider it at all, I heard news periodically every year or half a year, but also did not pay much attention. But, at the end of 2016, when the bitcoin course started to take off, it became interesting to me, what is crypto currency, blockade and what to do about it. While delving the course flew upward, but since usually in the financial markets adhered to conservative methods of trading decided not to invest, see what happens next. I bought the first crypto currency in the fall of 2017, it was Waves and Nem, and did not regret it. Deeper and deeper into the world of detachment and crypto-currencies, I began to understand that the future is behind it, but although this area is at the development stage, we will see many positive changes in the near future. These are new prospects and opportunities for different industries. In the case of crypto currency, a lot of advantages are the speed of operations, transactions are much cheaper, increase in purchasing power, attract investment, etc.

- Let's talk about ARCUS.CITY. What interested you in this project and why did you decide to become part of the ARCUS team?
- We began to discuss the ARCUS project at the end of 2017. Leo suggested the idea of ​​creating an application in augmented reality in which you can combine the process of playing and advertising. I really liked the idea, now a large number of companies are looking for opportunities to attract customers, are in constant search of new advertising channels. Having experience in start-ups, I immediately undertook to calculate the economic model and came to the conclusion that we have all the possibilities for a successful ICO. We analyzed the cost of advertising, impressions and clicks on all major advertising platforms. Analyzed the budgets of large, medium and small companies on advertising costs for their conversion and ROI. The main advantage of our project is that the advertiser can use not only the standard targeting offered by social networks or other sites, he can manage the behavior, choose at his discretion certain geolocation, conduct different events, post promotional codes, introduce any game processes and many other possibilities. Our project will be interesting to a wide range of advertisers and the cost from traditional advertising platforms will not differ much. In each project there are risks, we are trying to analyze everything to the smallest detail, so the main economic model is at the testing stage and the final version will be presented this summer. But already now we understand that the project has a huge potential, in our application we combine two rapidly developing markets, which every year will gain their potential, in addition, this is a new channel for advertising.

- Your project could pay off at the expense of advertisers, why do you conduct ICO?
- Holding the ICO will allow us to collect the necessary amount for the implementation of the Arcus project, we want to provide a ready-made product for players and advertisers. ICO will expand our project beyond Russia, allow us to introduce more gaming processes into the application, for this we need to expand the staff. And yet, ICO is a great opportunity for investors to feel part of our project, to buy tokens at the lowest price, for only $ 0.01. But most importantly, holding ICO gives an opportunity to learn about the project to a large number of people and in itself is an excellent channel for promoting our application around the world!

- At the first ICO, you plan to raise $ 200,000, but to implement such a global project you need clearly larger amounts. Why this particular figure? What will investors spend on?
- Yes, I agree that for our project we need an amount significantly exceeding $ 200,000. Now, according to statistics, many ICOs have only an idea and most of them either can not raise funds, or it turns out to be so-called "scum", and the trust of crypto-investors has significantly decreased to new projects. Therefore, we decided to hold fundraising in two stages. At the first stage we plan to create an alpha version and release it for testing, this will make sure to our investors that we are a serious company and do our work. To the main ICO we will already release a beta version and will be able to start selling to advertisers. What will $ 200,000 go to, of course, for technical support, for paying office, employees, advertising campaign, partially bounty campaign to the stage of the main ICO. These tools will significantly accelerate the creation of the application and, moreover, will show interest in our project, but in any case we will continue to implement the project, despite the results of the preliminary stage collection.

- Tell us about your achievements, both professional and personal.
- My first startup was connected with agricultural machinery of a narrow direction for gardens and vineyards. I created a full-fledged representation of the Czech plant, it was possible to significantly increase brand recognition, customer loyalty and, correspondingly, increase sales times. I had to participate in various events, exhibitions and thematic conferences. We worked out various financial measures to stimulate sales, such as leasing, installments and so on.
In 2015, my eye fell on the production of natural chocolate. The analysis of the market, its potential was carried out. At the end of 2015 we started production, natural, without chemistry, chocolate. They found suppliers of cocoa beans, oils. The product was tested, and focus groups were also conducted. For approval of the final recipe, as now I remember, it took 5 months, but we achieved an interesting result, and our products appealed to consumers. We carried out deliveries to specialized shops, to regional networks and constantly expanded the sale of products. The most important thing was feedback from our consumers, responsive to changes in trends and preferences. In general, I always liked to deal with financial projects, calculations, building business processes, economic models.
In the financial world, I plunged into 2004, as a member of the bank. Got a lot of invaluable experience in banking. Also in 2004 he became interested in financial markets, the idea of ​​the markets by that time was already there, but only theoretical.
In 2009 he defended his diploma, the topic was connected with derivatives. In my free time I read a lot of literature from scientific articles on astronomy, quantum physics, and modern prose. I'm fond of psychology. In youth I was engaged in single combats - karate, aikido, now I also try to lead an active life.

- Thank you for your responses. We will watch your development. Maybe you want to say something to the readers at last?
- Now the world is developing very quickly, especially related to crypto-currencies and blockbuster, a lot of interesting and not so many projects appear, and as I have already said a lot of "scum", so I recommend that you carefully study and analyze the projects when choosing. We, in turn, will be glad to receive feedback and answer any questions related to our project.

Ilgizar Rahmatullin is open for communication and will gladly answer your questions. You can contact him in any convenient way for you:
