Hi,

We are currently working towards announcing the bounty, airdrop and ICO details in the first week of September

We're almost there... please keep watching for updates

Thanks

So when Airdrop will be announced ? When will we see 'soon'

The ICO is to provide a token which will be used to access the mining service and in turn raise the funds to build a large scale, energy efficient mining operation

The service will automatically deposit generated ETH into token holders wallets

Why should a cloud-based service provider need an ICO and have its own coin?
You can get the capital to operate and grow the company from the customer service fees.
As long as you have a service that works and is really good, there is no need to organize an ICO to raise funds.

Mining is a fundamental part of the blockchain for any coins or tokens that aren't pre-mined. Miners form the basis of the decentralisation model of the Cryptocurrency arena but we are getting to a point where large amounts of hash power, the key ingredient to solving blocks and securing the chain, are becoming centralised.

This has two impacts:
1. It means that there is a risk of a single pool or company being able to gain control of an entire blockchain. If a person or company managed to gain greater than 50% of the computing power or mining hashrate they would be able to prevent new transactions from gaining confirmations and be able to reverse transactions that were completed while they had control so they could double spend coins. They wouldn?t be able to create new coins or blocks but it would have a huge reputational impact on the particular blockchain.
2. It means that for the average person mining isn?t a worthwhile venture due to the cost of equipment, electricity and time for maintenance. The ROI isn?t as beneficial as it used to be.

There are other solutions out there such as cloud mining services but they aren?t transparent or cost effective and we want to change that.


MinedBlock offers the opportunity for investors to take advantage of using the resources from a large-scale mining operation without the need to buy, configure and maintain expensive mining equipment. We will offer a fully managed mining service where you can rely on our team to look after the equipment and ensure they are working at maximum productivity 24/7 with the lowest operating costs.
 
We will create a dedicated mining facility which focuses on mining multiple coins from within the top 50 by market cap to ensure a diverse range of revenue streams for customers to benefit from.
 
Through the proposed large scale operation we will help improve the decentralisation of coins where there are already large pools dominating the hashrates of popular coins. MinedBlock will also be working towards decentralisation within our own network through global distribution of our mining data centres.
