What is KICKICO?

KICKICO is a fundraising platform that not only allows projects to create fundraisers, but also takes part in it’s development after it launches. All the projects that have raised funds on the platform will be part of the
“Kickonomy,” which means that they:

(1) Accept KickCoins and make special offers for KickCoin holders

(2) Sell their monetized content (goods, products) on our Marketplace (scheduled to launch next year)

(3) Each project’s tokens are exchanged on our internal DEX

All of the above makes KickCoin (KC) an exchange standard for their own projects. Some projects also tie the rate of their token to the rate of KC.

— Yuri Parsamov, Strategic Partnership Manager, KICKICO

Pre-sale Information
The pre-sale started on July 28 and ended early on August 8. The team raised 5,000 Ether during the presale, reaching the hard cap. There was a total of 40,600,000 KICKICO tokens (KickCoins) available during the pre-sale at a price of 1 Ether for 6,000 KickCoins.

Crowdsale Information
The crowdsale will begin on August 29, 2017 at 13:00 UTC and will end on September 16 18:00 UTC. There will be 600,000,000 tokens available during the crowdsale. There is a goal of 50,000 Ether and a hard cap of 100,000 Ether. Contributors can participate here when the crowdsale begins.

A simple email registration must be completed in order to participate. The crowdsale price is 1 Ether for 3,000 KickCoins. KickCoins are ERC-20 tokens, so contributors must contribute Ether from an Ethereum wallet that supports ERC-20 tokens.

Token Distribution information
KickCoins will be distributed at the end of the ICO. There are a total of 700,000,000 KICKICO tokens being created, with an increase in supply as new projects are launched on the KICKICO network. The following is a “loyalty bonus emission” for KickCoins:

“Emission, KC” is the total amount of KickCoins that will have been created by that date, not an additional amount being created at that specific time. The bonus KickCoins created are used to incentivize community members. Token holders will get a bonus a few times every year.

There will be a KICKICO token wallet available to contributors where KickCoins can be stored if desired.

Allocation
The distribution of funds received by the platform during the pre-ICO and ICO campaigns will almost completely be used for further development of the platform. The development plan for KICKICO includes, not only the further development of the platform itself, but also the marketing of campaigns launched on the platform and the creation of the crowdfunding 2.0 economy, which will replace the outdated model on which modern crowdfunding platforms are working.(2)

— 9% will go towards payment for PR and marketing services.
— 7% will go towards initiating a return on investment for seed investors.
