A tokensale ONLY for the Steemit community!
As per my post on Saturday, our tokensale for the Steemit community is now live and it is very exciting.
The token sale really marks a milestone for the community as a whole. I am personally not aware of any other fundraisers of this magnitude that has been done exclusively for the Steemit Community. We are really aiming to keep it as easy as possible for you to get your hands on some of the pods in this pre-token sale. Most importantly, this token sale is available for everybody in the Steemit community. We are giving you the opportunity to buy these pods early, before we go out into the market with the main tokensale.
Why are we giving you this opportunity?
• Our founders have been involved on this platform since the early days of Steemit.
• We understand that a lot of the Steemit community is not necessarily Crypto Traders or Crypto technology specialists. We therefor want to give you the opportunity to get your hands on some pods in an easy non-technology driven way.
• We want to give the tech savvy crypto traders the opportunity to get their hands at a special bonus price.
• One of our target markets, is the sporting supporter community. We want to work with Steemit to build our blogging side of the SportsPodium solution, right here on Steemit and we hope to bring thousands of new users to the platform. The mechanics and options around exactly how this is not clear right now, and we will only start working on that after our Token sale is complete.
• In short this is our way to thank the Steemit community
How to participate in the token sale.
Go to our webpage: https://sportspodium-pre-ico.herokuapp.com/ The URL is protected with a certificate and very safe to use. No registration is required to participate.
Click here to get your hands on some pre sale PODS
You will be asked to enter the amount of Steem or SBD you wish to buy PODs with and also your Steemit password. The password is only required to authorise the transaction. Your password is NOT visible to us and we cannot record your password. It is very safe to use. As a backup, we record the transaction on our side in addition to the normal record on the Steem blockchain. You will have a transaction in your Steemit Wallet History as confirmation that you purchased Pods.
We only need your password to authorise your transaction, we cannot see your password or safe you password. We are using a standard API.
An alternative method is to do a direct transfer from your Steem wallet to the @sportspodium wallet. The amount of pods you receive will be calculated based on the Ethereum price at the time. We record the ether price every hour for the duration of the pre-token sale. Please use your email address in the memo field.
We will notify via email when you can claim your pods.
It is as easy as that. Please feel free to join us on Telegram https://t.me/SportsPodiumPublic should you have any questions or have a direct conversation with the team.
Happy Steeming!
This sounds very exciting I'm definitely going to have a look when I get home, how long is the offer available? Cheers mike
Hi @mikenevitt, the sale is on till 10 September as the main token salle which we will open to the generel crypto world is starting on 14 September. That'll give you plenty of time.
Thank you very much for your reply, going to have a good look tonight, cheers mike
👍🏻
Could you give me another reason why I should buy PODS coins beside the fact that is only focused on the steem.it community ? What is the utility of this token ?
Until when is it possible to get this discounted price?
I am so happy to be one of the pods holder. I fealt this coins will gain value the same as the btc.
This must be one of the best comments I ever had 👍🏻
Time to go buy some after that comment :)
I'd just like to give everybody a quick reminder that you should NEVER give your Steemit password to a third party.
I would highly advise all steemians to not use that method for this ICO. The second one (send via Steemit wallet) seems safe.
Hey @heymattsokol. Thank you for the comment and I totally agree that you should Never Ever give your password to anybody.
Just to be clear to the community, we are not asking for a password. We are using standard code, which you can review in our github https://github.com/SportsPodium/SteemPreICOForm. The only way to transfer money from one Steem Wallet to another is for the owner of the account to authenticate using their password. We do not see the password nor can we save the password.
Thanks again for your comment
Hey @jacor, Can you prove your point? I mean nobody can take the guarantee of the mouth word. If you can, explain to me how you can't have any kind of access to the password?
Hey @raghu-nath, the easiest way to explain it is too have a look into our code on github. If you have any doubt and would like to get your hands on some pods, please do a direct transfer from your Steem Wallet to the @sportspodium Steem wallet and just specify your email address in the memo field. This way you don't need to submit your password to the pre-sale website. We honestly only want to give the Steemit community a chance to purchase Pods early in the race before we run our main token sale
This should be the top comment.
How nice the intention may be.
Passwords should never be transferred outside the system.
Steemit should implement Oauth authentication.
With Oauth, Steemit can verify accounts for third party applications .
While keeping your password safe.
Hi @fechaugger I agree with your statement that we need something similar to OAuth for third party applications. We had to go down this route as we want to make it as easy as possible for everybody to participate. If you have any doubt and would like to get your hands on some pods, please do a direct transfer from your Steem Wallet to the @sportspodium Steem wallet and just specify your email address in the memo field. This way you don't need to submit your password to the pre-sale website. We honestly only want to give the Steemit community a chance to purchase Pods early in the race before we run our main token sale.
Beware and stay skeptic guys
What is the benefit of holding a @sportspodium token?
Hi @jeffjagoe,there are many benefits, but here is a summary:
can you share the link about the detailed info on the PODs. How will it be beneficial to other members of the steemit community.
Moreover My advice is any cryptocurrency value increase with acceptance of the crypto all over the world and not just the steemit community.
Nice : )
I HAVE BEEN READING ABOUT THIS STUFF... BUT I AM STILL CONFUSED THAT CAN WE BUY THOSE WITH OUR STEEM ACCOUNT OR ELSE HOW...
You can do a direct transfer to the @sportspodium wallet and you will still receive your pods.
THANKS
