More Information:

We have received community feedback to extend the token sale start date. As a result, we have decided to adjust the Token distribution date to November 30th, 2017 at 9am PST. The registration for the whitelist will open the whitelist starting today, November 9th, 2017.

Those accepted on the whitelist will be ensured a spot in the BLT public sale.

Bloom is a community-first project. Bloom will not be controlled by a government, central bank or organization. Instead, Bloom will be run by the community. As a result, we will be giving priority to those who have made a positive contribution to the project.

We are grateful for the helpful engagement which has come in many forms, including, but not limited to:

• Making introductions to us for providers, data partners and contributors
• Actively contributing to discussion in Bloom Slack
• Actively participating on Telegram
• Spreading awareness of Bloom news on Twitter, Reddit, and Facebook
• Introducing the Bloom team to prospective hires
• Helping answer questions that pop up from other community members
• Participating and sharing our global credit research survey
• Sharing feedback about the protocol, whitepaper and website
• Provided feedback and direction on technical decisions, governance, etc
• Sharing insight into the lending and credit markets
• Sharing Bloom content
• Inviting industry leaders into the conversation and discussions with the team
• Referring members to the whitelist
• Sharing our video with the world
• Other types of help — you know who you are!

If you haven’t yet supported Bloom and still want to ensure your place on the whitelist, it’s not too late to help out. We will be recognizing all activity even if it just happened.

All participants on our Slack, Telegram, and mailing list are eligible to apply for the whitelist. Please be sure to submit your application as early as possible to help increase your chances of securing your spot. Due to demand, we will be accepting a limited number of applicants.

You can access the whitelist registration here.

Good luck, and thank you for the support!
