Received the following message from Gatecoin exchange:
Starting today, fully verified Gatecoin users will be able to participate in the Arcona (ARCON) token pre-sale by logging into their Gatecoin account and pledging any amount of their ETH balance.
The deadline to take part through Gatecoin is 8:00 HKT (UTC+8), Wednesday, 21 February 2018.
What are Arcona (ARCON) tokens?
Arcona's ARCON tokens, which are being distributed to contributors through the token pre-sale and the public sale, will be used to access and power the functions on the Arcona platform. Some of these functions include viewing content, interacting with a P2P digital land marketplace, and any other services offered in the Arcona ecosystem.
There are multiple token use cases within the Arcona ecosystem. Users could visit Pompeii and pay to see the reconstructed ruins. Digital landowners could display virtual ads near their created content in order to earn more revenue for their masterpieces. For more information on the token mechanics, please refer to the whitepaper (see below).
How does Arcona work?
Arcona will allow individuals to buy, sell, and rent out "digital land”. Arcona will use smart contracts to guarantee the protection of copyright and property rights for digital landowners. However, there are far more potential applications that Arcona plans to implement into their AR marketplace.
Arcona allows developers to accurately and remotely place augmented reality objects in a changing environment. They also offer the ability to link virtual content with real landscapes anywhere, regardless of their size.
Currently, there is no single tool for users to easily interact with augmented reality. Arcona’s digital land unites the physical and virtual world while simultaneously offering free access for all users and software functions, allowing them to change the surrounding augmented reality space whenever they desire. Most AR concepts require a specific method of viewing, whether it be a phone, headset, or glasses. Arcona is able to have universal viewing among devices, which also adapts to users' movements.
How to take part?
As a Gatecoin client, you will receive access to the Arcona token pre-sale and benefit from a 30% token bonus compared to the general public price (meaning that you will get 30% more tokens for the same amount of ETH equivalent sent).
The minimum participation amount for this token sale is 0.5 ETH. Participation will be taken into account on a first come first serve basis.
** US nationals, US residents and residents of Mainland China, will not be accepted as contributors. **
