How are  the 2nd blockpay ICO tokens (2017) going to differ from the current ones trading on openledger?  Wondering if it's better to buy the current traded tokens or wait for the 2nd ICO.  Any insights?

Hi guys, I want to give you a short update about BlockPay and what we have been working on the last few days.

We had to fire our old marketing partners because they did not perform the way we wanted. We now added 2 more people to the core team who will be in charge of all social media channels and keep reporting about our journey. One of the first articles is out already, check out bitshares[/member]-munich/the-faces-behind-blockpay-christoph-and-rodrigo]https://steemit.com/blockpay/@bitshares-munich/the-faces-behind-blockpay-christoph-and-rodrigo .

For direct updates please also follow us on Twitter https://twitter.com/BlockPay_ch and on Facebook https://facebook.com/blockpayde and on Steemit https://steemit.com/@bitshares-munich

Latest Development
Let us take a look at the current software development. We are making great process in the IPFS in C development and further decentralizing the BlockPay core and building up the BlockPay engine. This new DAP structure allows us to install BlockPay on any kind of hardware! Not only on Android and iOS but also on a raspberry pi´s and other mainframes. Imagine you could pay with your Bitcoin at vending machines, petrol stations, power sockets, doors, etc.
We are already talking with industry partners for upcoming integration.

On the other side, we are working on a redesign of the current UI/UX to increase merchant adoption. The onboarding process gets redesigned as well as the settings cleaned out. I will soon share some first design mockups to the community.

Meanwhile, we are ramping up development work with stealth transaction on the Bitshares blockchain. We are now able to hide (sender,receiver,amount,memo field, meta data) from blockchain explorers. Only a timestamp will be left. Stealth is a highly requested feature for all merchants who want to move corporate funds on a blockchain. With this feature, we actually build a hybrid between a public and a private blockchain and give the whole industry a new option to store and move funds on a blockchain. Together with a scalable blockchain, stealth transactions gonna be faster, more secure, more private and easier to use than ZCash or Monero. More exciting news about our development here in the following weeks.

Congrats Guys!! Awesome effort.

Congrats for the success of ICO!  It was amazing for Phase 2 finished within one day!

BTW, Is there an expiration date for Phase 3?  Or everyone who participated the first two phases can only get their token to be distributed after the target of Phase 3 is fulfilled ?

Very important for tomorrow:

Phase 1 starts August 20th, 2016
We offer a special deal for our early supporters and current OPENPOS holders. We want to personally thank everyone who supported us during our first crowdfunding December 2015. We would not exist without you! We offer you an early access and a special buy back deal where you can exchange your existing OPENPOS tokens to BlockPay tokens 1 to 1.20!

How do you do this?
Simple. Send your OPENPOS TOKENS to account: ico.blockpay on OpenLedger or other bts supported platforms and await distribution. Your proof of transfer is on the blockchain and this amount is deciding how many BLOCKPAY tokens you will receive. The special offer runs only from August 20th  to start of Pre-ICO.

OPENPOS was originally suppose to get 50% of all fee's generated by the Oodoo terminals.  What happened to that?  What if we choose not to sell our OPENPOS?

The problem I see is that you are only allotting 0.6% of the total supply of blockpay tokens to OPENPOS holders.  OPENPOS holders should receive at least 20% of the total supply.

  Also based on your math... you are valuing each block pay at approx $0.216.  Giving you a valuation of approx $21.6 million at ICO time.  How do you come to this sort of valuation. ?

I'm still wondering why you are valuing Blockpay at $20million dollars...

The first crowd fund for OPENPOS gave you a valuation of approx $50thousand.  Do you think your current product suite and development justifies this massive increase in valuation.  It's extremely high in my opinion especially considering the funding environment for tech start ups.

Hey Lil Jay thank you for your good questions. Since I get that questions quite often I want  to link to my other answers as well. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1587349.msg15952284#msg15952284

Yes, our evaluation seems high on the first view and I have a good reason for that. We are building basic tools (mobile wallets, the point of sales systems) for all major Blockchain currencies and approach the market with a completely new strategy. We have to leave the technical details of Blockchain behind and focus on the consumer burning pains and demands. In comparison to many other ICO´s who just got a White Paper or an idea we create a full range of 5 working proof of concepts to validate our business idea and capabilities. BlockPay and Echo and the Smartcoins Wallet are solving real-life problems, and are an open platform for countless other business models and use cases.

We only collected around 25,000 USD with the OPENPOS sales and gained a little bit with the BTS price increase this spring. Now, we are giving back 600,000 BlockPay tokens in a value of +100,000 USD to all OPENPOS holders. I know many early supporters who could triple their invest if they decide to exchange.
