We are all too familiar with the negative stigma and challenges associated with token offerings.

While our financial model caters for it, our calculator assumes none of the funds are placed in a higher-yield investment vehicle. In essence, we will place all the funds that are raised in a safe, interest-bearing investment vehicle, and attempt to use only the interest that is earned from those funds, to fund our project. Naturally, the more funds we raise, the easier it becomes for our team to only use the interest earned each month, without dipping into the principal amount. Thereafter, we will be in a position to return the principal amount. A security would be some form of tradeable financial asset.

We are not grafting existing business models into a cryptocurrency or blockchain technology, business models that can be implemented without a cryptocurrency or blockchain network.
