This is the altcoin discussion don't you have an official announcement, and I don't think they are the first one to do this, there are so many ico related Asian payment in the past I don't know what makes this project, unique do they know that a similar project exist?
Yes there are a lot of ICO related Asian payments in the past, but not for buying properties. AQWIRE is the first one in Asia to use cryptocurrency to buy real estate properties. A lot of real estate related ICOs are focusing on tokenizing the properties which in turn classifying their token as securities. On the other hand, AQWIRE is building a platform for the real estate community (property developers, investors, buyers, brokers) wherein you can access the platform tru the use of AQWIRE tokens making the token a utility token not as a security. In the platform, you can review, reserve, and eventually buy properties with the use of cryptocurrency or fiat. It's like an online one stop shop for properties. Making the tokens have a real utility not just a promise.
