I am very glad that so many new people come to us and I hope that they will become members of our community. Tomorrow I will tell the basic rules of the Freeroll tournament.
This tournament is special. We have put it on the Facebook platform. For the fist time It will be possible to play on the stock exchange from your FB account.

i really like the concept explanation of this project. but i think the information about tokensale and token spesification is really needed. please share this information too.
Hey, thanks for your comment we really appreciate all the positivity from you guys! All the information on the token sale can be found on the following link: http://preico.stockus.io/
If you have any further questions or there is anything that needs clarification please don't hesitate to contact me by comment or PM!
I correctly understand that the more primaet participation in the rallies of players, the greater the prize, but less likely to win. And, what do you mean by smart contracts?

OUR FIRST ARTICLE IS NOW LIVE!
Read the story and journey behind Stockus directly from the Founder himself HERE!
The article focuses on the next generation financial institutions based on Blockchain technology that will soon disrupt the existing financial status quo.
A whole ecosystem of banks, advisors, markets, and record keepers are extracting enormous fees from investors. This ecosystem can now be disintegrated. Historically, the revenue streams which are hidden from the typical investor are the real profit engine of brokerages.With existing Blockchain Technology and strong support from the community, it is possible to democratize the markets and save money for investors and companies through reducing and eliminating the tremendous fees and inefficiencies by utilizing an innovative blockchain trading platform. Stockus even takes this further, considering all factors that come to play whilst trading such as psychological phenomena, to completely revolutionize trading. By incorporating a tournament structure, trading can now stop being stressful, bank-breaking and limiting but still bring the same, if not greater, profit.

A lot of people are curious about our platform and are asking when it will be available. It is important to clarify that our platform is undergoing some technical modifications and needs initial funding to properly operate. With the aim to support the prize pools for the first three months, before Stockus platform becomes self-sustainable, we need to sell tokens before the launch.
To make our platform operate safely and transparently, we are using the blockchain technology, which is a transparent way to make transactions secure and make our project trustworthy. Stockus is different from any existing online trading platforms because we are transparent and honest with our clients from the beginning.
Stockus’ tournaments allow users to compete in skills and receive rewards for outperforming others. We firmly believe that this market was missing for a long time and that there were no such tournaments before. Therefore, we have decided to release our platform after two rounds of STT sale: Pre-ICO and ICO.
Pre-ICO will start at the end of October and will last for three complete weeks. After this, we will start an extensive marketing campaign, test the platform, improve some instruments, correct the bugs, contact respectful financial advisors for an approval and incorporate our company.
Then the ICO round will start, and we will send all the tokens through the smart contract to the Pre-ICO investors, begin to fill our price pools, gather funds for smartphone app development, fuel the marketing campaign, run the platform in closed beta tests, hire a full legal team and create additional tournaments.
We are doing a big project, and we need your action now to accomplish it. Eventually, Stockus will become a financial market, but before that, we will help everyone to participate in trading and profit from real skills!
Will keep an eye on this, sounds interesting.

We get many offers for marketing campaign.
Thanks for your offers. We indeed plan to launch a marketing campaign and subsequent ICO for Stockus.
Could you please provide some examples of marketing campaigns you have conducted in the past.
We are also interested to know how you collect the signatures and which countries you specialize in. Do you market towards users in China by any chance?
What are the usual terms of payment for such a marketing campaign? Is a Bounty program included? Would it be possible to perform the payment for such services after we conduct our pre-ICO?

Not yet. But before the end of August we will open our site, make a page in FB, on Twitter.
The most important thing is that we will launch the first tournaments just a month after the ICO. Most likely it will be a Freeroll tournament. The entrance to it will be free, anyone can play and win.
Before the launch of the first professional tournament (most likely it will be WFT) the winners of the Freeroll game will fight for a big prize- $ 10.0 thousand.

Got any social media channels or chat channels we can follow? Would like to keep tabs on your progress.
Hi.
Briefly about Stockus. Our team is writing White Paper and is making a website at the moment. We hope that by the 15th-20th of August we will present them to you.
The most important thing is that the game is written. Who is familiar with trading can imagine what it is. We have written our own trading platform (such as MT4). Without the creation of the trading platform it is impossible to create a full-fledged Fantasy Trading Game.
Further. We have tested the game about six months. We selected the most interesting tournaments for the players, determined their duration. And what is very important, we tested monetization. We found out what additional services and for what money players are ready to buy. The technology of the game is completely understandable to us.
We defined the approximate geography of our players: 21% - the United States; 8% - Canada; 14% - India; 24% - Europe; 33% -other countries.
We found out an approximate demography of players: under 18 years old - 1%; 18-24 years - 9%; 25-34 years - 40%; 35-44 years - 15%; Over 45 years old - 35%;
Within three months after ICO, we will run the amateur Freeroll game and two professional games: DFT, WFT. We are making a mobile version of the game as well. And we are seriously engaged in creating a social part of the game which will be quite extensive.

Do you guys have a website? or a whitepaper?
This is a cool idea. How far along is development?
Arguing on the point of skill is going to be an uphill battle for you guys and it might cost you guys a lot of money in legal fees to convince them that, which may or may not work out in the end. Also, since this is considered a security-based exchange, it may be illegal in other places in the Europe which severely limits the number of countries where this is permitted.
Interesting news
American company Robinhood received funding from the DST Global fund (controlled by Yuri Milner) in the amount of $ 110.0 million (Series C). The total amount of financing reached $ 176.0 million. The company was valued at $ 1.3 billion.
It is interesting that Robinstvo tries to reduce the initial contribution and therefore the risks of players who want to play on the stock exchange, which makes it a mass game. But it does it within the framework of the classical exchange trade, reducing the overhead of players and transferring the game exclusively to the mobile application. They also use the sale of additional services to players as the basis of its monetization.
We went a little further in Stockus, transferring the stock market itself into a game. But many details in their and in our projects are similar, including the ways of monetization

Thanks for the comment.
We performed a thorough review of the applicable financial legistlation in the States and came to the conclusion that Stockus can operate freely on the US market in compliance with the current laws and directives.
It should be noted that the SEC directs its efforts to protect the investor (or player in this case) from abuse and prevent unlicensed activity on behalf of brokers & spread betting agencies.
Stockus does not fall into either catrgory as it is a game of skills rather than chance, which means it is exempt from the 2006 directive preventing online gambling activity. This was also thr case with FanDuel, although some states initially attempted to prohibit their operations.
Another important distinction to make relates to the fact that Stockus users do not fund an account or make a deposit in order to trade. Each player participating in a tournament has equal rights and identical terms of trading. The game itself is virtual and similar in concept to FanDuel. It should be noted that fees to participate in professional trading competitions and purchase additional features are completely voluntary.
Stockus is built on blockchain technology, which adds an additional level of security and transparency to the game and tournament results. The winners and prize payments are confirmed by the players themselves based on smart contracts. In the event of a disagreement, the results will be objectively confirmed by independnent players acting as witnesses, or if needed by a dedicated Jury of users.
The game itself will use tokens rather than fiat money. Users will also hold balances in tokens which they can transfer to their ewallets and convert into other cryptocurrencies or fiat money at any time. Prizes will also be paid out in the form of tokens and deposited onto user accounts within the application.

In the US, fantasy trading might be considered illegal by SEC. https://www.sec.gov/oiea/investor-alerts-bulletins/ia_fantasytrading.html
