The 3 years stage project is thought in a way that in the first year(now, LIVE) the price of a hive with bees family is 30 000 APIS Tokens that you need to freeze/hive.
In the second year, you will have 2 hives and 20 000 APIS froze. In the 3rd year, you have 3 hives and 10 000 APIS froze.
So, 20 000 APIS(from the first 30 000APIS freeze)/hive are released by the third year for the first adopters of bees families.
The first adopters have access to many bonuses like customized hives(is already happening) with their company logo or any message whatsoever or the live CCTV streaming they can watch(will get implemented soon). This is not a token to speculate on. You need this token, and owning this token makes you a supporter of bees and life. A supporter of natural, organic products and a clean planet.
