Hi sartredd,

Let's get to know each other, so there is trust !

It is a good question and probably our CEO and others should join the conversation, I will ask. Here are my 5 cents from my engineering perspective:

1) We have a brilliant team and founders of One+1 have experience in launching large projects.

I have personally been involved in IT since my childhood because my father is a programmer. I'm a developer in the second generation. We have an IT development firm with a technical team which has been working together for as long as I remember myself.

I am originally from Russia, but for about ten years I was living in the US. I was a founding employee and first developer in CXI (https://ceifx.com, https://ebcfx.com), who is now one of the largest currency exchange companies in North America.  I made a system an ERP system for this business and then managed a large international IT team. We successfully went IPO on TSX and OTC in 2013.

Besides the engineers, the founding team also have members with massive experience in other spheres: business, OPS, marketing, law, accounting, etc. Our people has experience in the creation of various products from a retail bank TOP-100 from scratch to launching the best loyalty programs in the country. So, it is a pretty well-rounded team with a history working together.

You can learn more about us from our website or white-paper. Recently, we received a suggestion that we need to do KYC our team on the listings websites. We'll do it soon, so you can be sure we're real people

2) We have a legit and working business and working products and prototypes.

We achieved the following:

• Founded Charity Blockchain Association https://charityblockchain.ru/association
• Functioning marketplace at https://1p1.io/market (soon will be in English)
• Signed agreements with 20+ retailers and selling their goods on the marketplace
• Signed agreements with 20+ charitable foundations and donating proceeds from sales on marketplace
• Blockchain Explorer at https://charityblockchain.ru/foundations
• Sales of celebrity lots are carried out in partnership with the largest charity event platform, Share the Good Things. For example, among super-stars was a well-known professional basketball player, Andrei Kirilenko. https://1p1.io/market/product/523
• Koshelek (The Wallet), the largest retail aggregator, is the project’s partner. It aggregates many socially oriented businesses.
• An agreement has been signed with United Way’s representative office in Russia on strategic cooperation and verification of Russian and foreign nonprofits

Loyalty program prototype will launch real soon. And more.

3) We have been privately funded and working almost a year now. ICO for us is just one of the ways to raise funds as well a platform to promote our vision and technology. We also working with VCs and philanthropists.

4) Goltsblat BLP, an international law firm, now determines the jurisdiction for us and in the coming month an office will be opened.
