Topic: [FIL][ANN][ICO launched!] Embermine - Blockchain and Smart Contract Application (Read 534 times)

This has been the question on my mind ever since our initial token sale had to be terminated because the sales widget did not function properly and allow individuals to invest. I knew it would be an uphill battle from that point on because we always knew that the first moments were important with ICOs. I also knew that it would be hard to rise above all the growing noise in the industry and markets to help people realize we are "still here".

In the end, no matter what happens, we will get the Ember token launched and fulfill all of the bounties. All of you have worked hard and did as you said. You should not completely lose out simply because the token launch did not meet its minimum. Without the funding it will take longer and the network will be worth less in the beginning, making adoption by Users wishing to use Constructor Entities on the platform a harder sell. But we would still get it together and make it work. Because that is what we do.

For another project or someone else's event that I am working on, absolutely. For Embermine, not likely. We did this as an attempt to get as many people involved with the project as possible and generate enough working capital to do the development the right way.

If this continues as expected, and the sale does not meet its minimum, we will discuss how Embermine moves forward from that spot. There are many options. But another ICO for this, when the first one failed due to an error in the sales widget provided to us, and the second one did not meet the agreed upon minimum? With all of the craziness (ETH up 6x just since our original launch, for example) it was easy to get lost in the shuffle. But we are building this platform! Those who are in, will have options.

Please let me know if you have any questions at all.

We are blockchain "outsiders", all of us fairly new to the world of cryptocurrencies, smart contracts, and blockchain technology. We are coming at this world from the application development, Fintech, and Creative Management perspective, and collaborating with the companies who are on the leading edge of these technologies. So when we learned about BitcoinTalk, none of us had any practical experience with this community, its forms, it rules (both written and unwritten), and the traps and quagmires that can form within it. For us to come here as unbidden novices would have been only for the obvious reason of courting your money and intrigue.

Now, there is nothing wrong with wanting to do that, if you are a member of the community and you have paid your dues. We hadn't, as is likely obvious by my low score next to my name. Next to all Embermine names. So we decided not to post here on all spanking new accounts and try to pretend we deserve your attention and interest, since we had applied none before this. I do wish that we had learned of this place sooner, to have provided us an opportunity to learn more from this community and its members. All of this is important, because everyone in this community now is a walking, living, breathing ambassador to the "cryptoworld" for the many thousands of ordinary people who will be introduced to it for the first time by Embermine.

THIS is why we at Embermine need this community. Because as legions of folks who have never before heard of "bitcoin" or "blockchain" will now be delving into these worlds, and will, inevitably, come into contact with you. So please remember that when products and services finally reach the mainstream, the whole game goes supersonic. So we wanted to learn. To know more about this community before we selfishly approach you with Embermine. I can now see that it would have been fine and I apologize for the loss of time to those of you who exclusively get their ICO/Token Sale news from this source.

So, to extend a moment of gratitude to this community for welcoming us in, and in some form of compensation for having missed the opportunity, I would like to offer the members of this forum a special bonus:

The Escrow account for Embermine's Token Sale was set up by TokenMarket and is being administrated by Coinfirm.io in a multi-sig wallet. The full token sale information can be found here: https://embermine.com/crowdsale

The ICO has already launched and is going until 12:00 Noon Central Standard Time June 2, 2017. We are selling the coin at .00004 BTC per EMB. Because it is an escrow token sale and all coins are returned to the owners directly, there is no loss in value to market while ICO is running. The moment the sale ends and the coin is minted, the link to the parent currency is broken and they begin having different values. So there is no risk to investments that do not meet the minimum. Bitcoin rising fast while the sale is running is a good thing. Because even now, virtually, every EMB has doubled in value because of the double in BTC value. So whatever the price BTC is at moment when the coins are minted, that determines the opening value of the newly created coin. I have been told that the best thing to happen for a token sale like ours would be if Bitcoin rushed to the great heights and everyone bought in quick, maxing out the token sale and starting the clock until the new coin is created, establishing its value separate from Bitcoin. Then Bitcoin drops through the floor and then EMB rise a little bit. Once EMB is on the Exchanges (Kraken, bitfinex, etc.) your use it to buy BTC direct and profit in BTC! (Credit goes to @Crypt0Leviathan on Twitter, who sent me a long DM to tell me how this happens. I tried to simplify it. So thank you, Crypt0Leviathan!)
