Dear Magicune500, thank you for spending major of your time on us and discussing/promoting the GFL; 45% of your total posts on Bitcointalk are for GFL; much appreciated.

Dear Magicune500,

We are not doing and we will not do business in country where you can bribe Government agencies; check Georgia's ranking on CPI (Corruption Perception Index!). Indians, Georgians and any other country prove their identity and be respectful to nations! YOU ARE NOT SMARTEST and OTHERS FOOL in this world! Respect others and behave like an adult!

Georgians know about crypto and blockchains more than you can even imagine! Just one good example is country's National State Registry that keeps nations information on ownership of property, business, passports, etc at local market is running on blockchain (by Bitfury).

We respect your little brother and wish him all the best and success in his life; but your statement/accusation about GPUs towards us are absolutely groundless, like any other comments/message from your about us!

We are not offering to invest in our "scheme" so cannot answer to your question. We offer project to our stakeholders but not some kind of unknown "scheme".

We are not rushing anywhere; and we welcome any new regulation on cryptocurrency like SEC's latest regulations as it secures even more transparency in the market. We know what we do and we have ambition to make the ICO with one of the best transparency level ever! and we believe we will be bring with this new standards in ICO process!

Best wishes,
Golden Fleece

Supporting Georgian agency doesnt mean nothing. You can bribe anyone to support and put their name on your website. This dont fool experience people. Georgians dont even yet know what cyrpto coins are. Only local people will support your project because they think you invented something crazy technology. Like Indians invested in oncecoin and 30 million was lost.

Please watch Andreas Antonopoulos Maybe, you will know more about coins, ask questions people will reply.

Even my little brother knows that you cant mine Scrypt, X11, SHA-256 with GPUs.

Answer one question. If i invest 10K in your scheme, what do you offer? You will build a mining farm in February 2018 (and you dont have any orders place yet) ? Then what will you provide ? Dividends monthly ? Daily ? Would I own assets in your company ? eg: 2x mining rigs would be called my name. Do you plan to put token on exchange ?

Understand this please, for the sake of ICO's and future of ICO. Dont be rushing because of SEC regulating it in future or people learning a lesson.
If you come back and do it right after 6-8 months, you wouldnt have to ware about SEC or lesson learned people.
New wave of investors would still come and invest stupidly, but more experienced people whould overpower them anyway.



Honestly, I dont even see any question answered properly.

You mentioned 100% green energy power of 20 megawatt.
Can you specify where did you find 100% green energy in Georgia? while Bitfury and others use normal electricity yet you found Green energy at black sea.

What your tokens will provide to the investors? Will they own assets hardware part of land, or just little hashpower? Like cloud mining ?
Would you provide monthly dividends? Or you just let the market decide the supply/demand part?

P.S. Ministry of Justice uses blockchain technologies in Georgia, I mentioned it in my 1st post, but General public thinks that you just inventing another bitcoin, and they might invest.
Good luck to them

We told that we will mine MAINLY with GPU, but also with ASICs.
I wrote about portfolio of coins that we plan to mine: 50% ethereum, 20% bitcoin (with ASICs), 10% dash (asic), 10% monero, 10% zcash.




Brothers,

GPU's Do not Mine Bitcoin, Dash, Litecoin.

You have to do more research about SHA-256 Algorithm and X11 algorithm that are mined by ASIC chips.

GPU's dont mine Bitcoin since 2011.

Your answers are Newbie answers for begginers.

I am out and I suggest everyone to stay away, JUST FOR THE FUCKING SAKE OF ICO'S STAYING MORE REPUTABLE AND HONEST !!!


CANCEL ICO, DO MORE RESEARCH, BUILD SOMETHING FIRST, COME BACK IN 5 MONTH AND, I WILL HELP YOU OUT

THATS ALL FROM ME

GOOD LUCK

Sorry for late response. I had interview on national TV yesterday and we were blown away by messages and meeting inquiries locally.
Today we had meeting with Techno Park (Georgian Innovations Agency), we talked for two hours, they expressed interest and support for our project. They will provide legal/financial/business consultancy by Deloitte, they will provide us with 24/7 modern office infrastructure and will help to promote project both locally and internationally.




1. You have 96 GPUS ? What Are they ?         - we have MSI RX580
2. What are you going to Be mining Exactly ? Altcoins, Specify ? What about Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash ?      - we plan to have following portfolio (may change slightly): 50% ethereum, 20% bitcoin, 10% dash, 10% monero, 10% zcash.
3. How many more GPU's have you ordered ? Can you show us the invoice and the payment made and expected date of the order arrival ?       - we have ordered RX580 sapphires and P106-100. sorry but I cant provide information about our suppliers, it will also bring their stocks down, which is not in our interest.
4. Who is your main supplier ? Do you have any further connections with them ?     - we have three main suppliers, which we consider for bulk purchases, one is in Dubai, one is in Singapore and one local representative for peripherals.  
5. 96 GPU/7= around 13 mining rigs. My friend has 12 Mining rigs at his garage, why should I give money to you and not to him ?       - This is PILOT mining datacenter, this is not collateral for your investment, nor it is to show our financial input.
6. Why do you need 50 Million USD ? Can you Specify allocation of the funds ?    - Datacenters will be built in several stages, it is not one stop shop. First stage should be finished by February if all goes well. Fund allocation after project is full funded will look like this:

Grid connection        1,238,542      2%
Servers                   40,000,000      80%   (including networking infrastructure)
Building                     1,333,333      3%
Ventilation/Cooling        266,667      1%
Other costs             1,000,000      2%
Working Capital           2,000,000      2%
The rest amount will be spent on coin repurchase.          
The aim is to spend as small amount as possible for anything other then GPU/ASICs, thus bringing down $ cost / MHs.


7. Are you going to buy mining just with GPUS?       -No, ASICS also, but with smaller share ~20%
8. What is you profit after electricity costs and maintenance currently at your 96GPU & hashrate?      - We pay around 700$ for electricity per month, hashrate is ~2,800 MH/s, Profit is 5-6 k $.
9. Can you provide us with the info to look at your hashrate on blockchain ?         -Sure:     http://dwarfpool.com/eth/address?wallet=3f5ad69e3609c5e8f0922a44f5e7baa0ed9dec78
10. Why do you think you can raise 50 Million so easily ?             -Nobody says it will be easy, though we are determined. We don't plan actually raising all of that amount through crowdfunding, we are negotiating with several investment funds and private investors, we already booked 25% and will book another 10-15% of total cap for private investors. We will announce names once deal is signed, I hope it will be before ICO.
EOS did it because it has technology behind, great team, motivation and a specific goal, and it hasnt succeeded yet, same goes with Tezos...           -Their business model is software based, our business model is hardware based. For hardware projects 50 million is not a big deal at all.

11. Why do you need to mine Etherium, to Issue your Own token ? Why just issue your token based on etheirum blockchain ?       -We are considering double blockchain option, working on it. We don't want to delute total number of coins, trying to figure out technical ways.
12. Are you just selling your Coin, technology behind it ? or what are you exactly selling ?            -We are building mining datacenters, for funding this project we issued our token, which we are selling.
13. Will token holders be holding shares in the company that you will register, will they own assets as well eg: GPU's, or even land ? As an Investor what would I own if I invest in your company.        -Tokens represent shares in the company, however there is no legal binding and no legal obligations, just our intent and promise to repurchase tokens with generated revenue. However we are willing to offer legal shares in the company for large investors, though their equivalent tokens should be put on escrow.



I would love to fund projects like this only if something is already build and I (or crowdfund) can help to expand but I will give you some examples what Bitfury can offer and I quote:
We do have our 7.5PH, 1.1MW Blockbox AC available.
Price starts at USD800K, based on a 50/50 profit share which takes effect after you recover your initial 800K investment. The Box will be hosted at our facility in Canada for a USD50K monthly fee to cover electricity and other expenses. Minimum investment is USD5M.


I hope I am allowed to disclose my special offer from bitfury, which might not be offered to someone else.
So why you ? and Not Bitfury who has been on market since 2013, who has already built something and is asking money for expansion...        -They are mining only bitcoin, they have high maintenance costs, high entry barriers.

I got offer on table to pay 800K and Owe 7.5Peta Hash SHA-256 Power, and with only 1.1 megawatt energy usage. 7.5 Peta hash is 7500 Tera Hash.
Why do you need 50 Mil, how many peta hash do you think you can achieve or how many THS of Dagger-hashimoto for example ?          -We will have ~2.5 TH/s Dagger-hashimoto power.

Hello Magicune500

First of all thank you for your interest and time spent to review our project.

Let me elaborate on points you have made:

CONS:
1. It is not quite a right time to do this type of ICO        -Thats subjective point, can you state arguments for it?  
2. Etherium Mining is not profitable                              -What do you mean by not profitable, what is your Required Rate of Return? Payback of less than a year is very profitable and achievable with GPU mining, with current ethereum prices.
3. There is no 20 Megawatt of electricity power in Georgia at cost of 5-6 Cents           - I can argue with this, pleas read our post regarding electricity prices, you can find sources with latest historical electricity prices.
4. Specify: Is it 0.05 or 0.06 cents per kw                         -It is 0.050.06 USD - or in other words 5-6 dollar cents per kw/h
5. 0.05 Cents in REP of Georgia is Only at free economic zone  which is Located only at www.TBZ.Ge                    -I can also argue with that, I work in Electricity company and have market knowledge,  the only difference for FIZ is that you dont pay VAT on electricity purchased, so thats 18% over price, but you know this VAT is not an expense at the end but differed tax asset which you can claim.
6. There is no hydropowerplant in Georgian Black SEA.        - No one claimed Hydro Power Plant in Black Sea, we were reffering to Hydropower Plants that are in western part of Georgia, NEAR Black Sea cost.
7. There is impossibility to exist 20 Megawatt of electricity in Todays Georgian Economic Situation.         -I don't get this point, what do you mean? One single Enguri HPP has 1300 MW power, and there are dozen hpps with more than 20 MW power production.
8. To generate 20megawatt of HydroPower you have to invest around 2.5 MILLION USD, especially in the SEA.       -Same point, we didn't mention HPP IN the SEA, I have never heared of Hydropower Plant in the sea.
9. Nobody has yet made this much investment in hydropower Electricity in GEORGIA                           -There are several HPP cunstructed and in construction process which have several million dollar investment, I will name a few: Nenskra (1 billion USD), Shuakhevi HPP (400 mln USD), Namakhvani HPP (700 mln USD) and many other smaller ones, you can google them. BUT we are not building HPP, we newer claimed it, we will just use their power.
10. This type of investment is never done in Georgian without GEORGIAN GOVERMENT being in CHARGE        -I can also argue with that, I am directly and indirectly involved in many large projects done in Georgia. Georgian government supports foreign direct investment, they adore investors and help them as much as government can help.
11. You do not have any hardware bought at this moment.         - We have currently 96 gpu-s in 24 mining rig-s shown in photos, we have made another order already, we have bought land for construction of final datacenter, and we own building in which current pilot mining datacenter is located.
12. What type of hardware you want to buy with the gifted money that people would invest?        -This is not charity, please be respective to what we do.
13. Website in World Press                           - I have stated many times that we are working on new website, sorry for delays.
14. Team = non existant , foreign names          - All three foreigners Georg Van den Berg, Moses Ilunga, Leon Lim are in my facebook friends you can find them and contact directly, I will post here links to their profiles in the same order:

https://www.facebook.com/georginizmir
https://www.facebook.com/moses.ilunga
https://www.facebook.com/leonlimjh

Pros:
1. Georgia basically legalised Crypto currency and One of the major Georgian bank is trading it.        -Oh finally Pros Smiley thank you, thats true point.
2. Bitfury is really located in Georgia and has expanded since 2013          -True
3. Georgia really has free economic zone with no taxes and electricity cost with 0.05cent (The problem is they cannot provide electricity, you have to go out find your own source, that is physically impossible)       --There is NO link between FIZ and electricity! Being in FIZ doesnt grant you any better conditions in finding cheap electricity. The only difference is in taxation scheme.
4. Ministry of Justice of Georgia uses blockchain technologies to register land ownership in Georgia.        -Also true

Sorry if my comments were emotional.
And thank you once more for spending your precious time to write this post.

Today I had interview on national TV with very good feedback.
I have inquery from  http://techpark.ge/ Georgian Inovations Agency will meet them tomorrow.
On Friday I have meeting with Liberty Bank (Emoney), will try to negotiate putting our coin on their website for exchanging.

Dudes for real now,

50 mio and a WordPress website? Oo come on you can do better than that....

1. Datacenter will consume around 20 MW power: I think your maths are wrong, you need a serious facility to scale that high.
2. We have already put in production our pilot mining facility with more than 200 000 USD investment (see photos attached): in the photos, the investment is nowhere near 200k. You need about 1000 cards for that number. My guess is about 10k USD are shown in the picture in terms of investment.

But the pinnacle is the name "Golden Fleece" , i get the connection between Georgia and Medea helping the Argonauts take the Golden Fleece but before naming your project you should google the meaning of...

Fleece: obtain a great deal of money from (someone), typically by overcharging or swindling them. Example: "the city's cab drivers are notorious for fixing fares and fleecing tourists"

Then try searching for "Fleecing Investors" and see what you get....


I am looking at a (your?) Facebook profile Vakhtang Gogokhia and you claim to be Head of Finance Department at GSE - Georgian State Electrosystem Tbilisi, Georgia, is that true? Are you employed by the state? I think people that understand how society works in those post-Soviet states can draw the conclusions by them selves.

I will certainly stay out. Best of Luck







I stated in previous posts that we are working on new website, please be patient and respectful of our work. I don't want to shut down current website until new will go-live.

1. Please contact me on facebook and I will share excel calculations from which 20 MW are derived. Meantime, GPU servers consume roughly 10 watts per MH/s, we plan to spend on servers up to 40 mln USD and we have target of 15$ investment per MH/s. So math is following 40 000 000 / 15 * 10  and you will get 26.7 MW power.

2. I will give you exact numbers of that pilot facility, we have currently 96 GPU-s RX 580 in 24 mining rigs, we spent on that 58 000 $, building which this servers are in costs 75 000 $, we also purchased land 7600 m2 for 80 000 $ for our final mining data center. I can post here all necessary documents.

3. Name "Golden Fleece" is connected to the territory on which we plan to build datacenter, and has nothing to do with taxi drivers or ripping people. I cant comment more on this Smiley

I work in Georgian State Electrosystem as Head of Finance Department, before that I worked Caucasus Online and Delta Systems, and I am proud of every company that I worked in! GSE has been developing national grid and invested more than 500 mln USD in network and plans to invest 800 million more in next 10 years, and I am proud to be part of it.
 
People, why are you so anxious?
Please ask legit questions and I together with my team will be more than happy to provide you with all details!
If I didn't make any harm to you or anyone that you know, why do you make black PR to our project?

Anyways, I am still determined and will try to answer all your request here!
Thank you for understanding.

another newbie ICO, another scamcoin. High school project maybe? want some spending money? I doubt how much this kind of ICO can collect...

Greetings! I assure you that me and my team are hard working professionals with dozen years of expertise in each of our professional areas: IT, Finance, Energy, Law, Telecom etc.
We are lagging on marketing side yet Smiley But working on that really hard, will see results in a week or so. We will renovate website and media presence.
Have you looked through our Linkedin profiles? What makes you feel untrusting? I will be pleased to have your feedback and will work on improving that part.

Thank you for your interest anyways!

I'm afraid to see you not have secure connection it would be horrible in future if someone got succeed to hack this page and replace the ICO address like what happened with Coindash ans Insurex.

We are working on renovation of website. However our pre-Ico sale is on waves platform, so there is no adress to send Ether, you should buy it from Waves DEX exchange with ethereum, bitcoin, waves, usd and eur. We are negotiating with waves to include our token as verified and it will have green mark not to be mistaken with other scam tokens.

We have budget of 1 million coins for bounties. Mainly for marketing purposes (ico listings, partnership programs).

We also have individual bonuses for refferal investments, contact us in private message for details.

Rather than giving ROI numbers it would be better to share different scenarios. Ethereum can be problematic with the incoming supply of drivers. I beleive you should inform us more about renewable energy and legal status. I do not believe that it can be profitable with this preferences.

ROI of course depends on several different inputs/assumptions. For scenario part you can find our excel (on google sheets) model and try yourself changing input values to find what the result may be:

We have 1 million token budget for bounty campaign for project supporters, feel free to contact me on facebook: Vakhtang Gogokhia

Hello, thanks for the feedback! You can read my post about electricity prices on the website: http://goldenfleece.co/index.php/2017/07/20/electricity-price-in-georgia/

But I will also review wind/solar here.
More than 80% of energy is derived from Hydro Power Plants, the rest is derived in winter by Gas Powered Plants.Wind and solar are new to Georgia but have strong support from the state. There was launched first 20 MW wind power plant last year in Georgia, near city Gori. Because it was pilot project and built by state owned agency, state gave them quite high Power Purchase Agreement for 6.89 USD cents per KW/h. There is 5 MW pilot solar project which is being built in Udabno region with 6.5 USD cent PPA. However our energy partner Georg Van Der Berg (you can find him on our team page) with deep expertise in renewable energy is ready to develop solar power plant with 6 USD cent purchase agreement. We also have local small scale renewable partner company called Helios, they will be doing video review of our mining plans next week on national tv. 


These are useful links about Georgian energy sector:
http://forbes.ge/news/2332/In-7-months%2C-the-wind-power-plant-in-Kartli-generated-3-mln-kWh-more-energy-than-forecasted-
https://investingeorgia.org/en/keysectors/energy

Legislation is liberal for cryptocurrency. Bitfury has built 3 large mining facilities with 100+ mln USD investment. Local Liberty Bank has Bitcoin/Litecoin online exchange.

Feel free to ask any further questions!

To be honest your idea is not impressive and your website is also looking crappy with free hosting and a WordPress theme. Please upload some video proof of team members as I feel these are some randomly picks people to put on that website.

Greetings! With your request I have just uploaded photos of me and one of team member (Shota Metreveli) in our pilot mining facility.
We are working on video blog also, it will be launched in a week or so.

See photos here:
