Re: [ANN] [ICO] MMRS - Money transfer and cash withdrawal on blockchain
It is ridiculous how much tokens and funds are allocated to founders, marketing, and advisors et cetera. I am definitely not putting my money in if I know that 10% automatically ends up in the pockets of employees and advisors.
Thank you for your opinion! If you take a look at our website https://bank4you.io/ you will see that we reached the soft cap and we are fine! When you change your mind, you are welcome to join!
What has reaching a soft cap to do with putting funds directly in the pockets of founders, marketing and advisors? Get yourself funded from another cashflow than the one from the ICO. People that invest in the ICO are interested in the project, not in paying founders, employees or advisors. 10% is seriously ridiculous high.
Your Token Allocation - "Marketing & Promotion - 6%, Advisory Board, Consultants and Partners - 4%"
But your allocation of funds is even more ridiculous:
15% Marketing and Promotion (
??!!!!!! 15%???!!!!!) 3% for Team members
Thank you for your opinion! Reaching of the soft cap means that there are enough people for whom the project by professional team is valuable.
Thanks for answering fast.
So you are actually admitting that money flows directly into the pockets of team members and founders? Some investors don't read completely through your white paper and website, and may not be aware of such information.
Can you explain me the following:
- Why do you need 15% for marketing and promotion? Why 15%? How did you calculate it?
- Why do you need 4% of your tokens for advisory board, consultants, and partners? How did you calculate this?
Can u answer my question, please.
We apologize for making you waiting. Marketing and promotion are those things that drive the development of basically anything, that is why that do need funds to be allocated, and 15% is no way ridiculous but quite reasonable.
Team members do their work and it is can be considered key players, and it is common practice to allocate certain percentage for their work.
We can assure you that all calculations were done in a proper manner and in accordance to financial regulations, however, that is sort of business information that rarely disclosed.
If you are a startup it is quite weird to put investor money into the pockets of employees. Why don't you fund them with your own money or another cashflow? I am not interested in investing in an ICO of which 3% directly flows into the pockets of employees.
Also, transparent and honest ICOs and other companies that want to raise money DO include calculations. If you, as you said, have 'proper manner' for calculations than I guess it is no harm to share them. You are talking about money from the investor in your ICO, they should have the right to know what you do with their money.
Another question you did not answer before; why do you need 6% of your tokens for marketing if you already keep 15% of the funds? And 15% is really a lot already. Could you elaborate a bit why you ned 15%? What's your plan? What are you going to spend it on?
we are not a startup.

Alright, my bad for the first point. Can you answer the other points?
