We have a very important announcement that we’re really eager to share with you.

As you may or may not know, our CEO Tadas and CBDO Donatas have spent the past month in conferences, meetings, events and experiences across East Asia — namely in Seoul, Hong Kong and Tokyo. Much was learned about the unique culture of the region, their specific and different communication channels, and how they do business.

We got lots of positive feedback, gained many valuable insights, and, most importantly, we saw numerous signs that there’s huge demand for our project.

To make the most of the massive opportunities these so-far untapped markets have to offer, we saw a need for local partners. To that end, we started discussions to set up major strategic partnerships, and some of these are now being finalised — the first major one will be announced very soon (it’s BIG). This puts us into the position of now needing to spend more time building offline and online communities in these markets so that we can fully untap their potential.

That is why Team Unboxed has decided to run its public token sale in the Q4 of this year instead of Q3 (2018/09/01).

This extra period will give us the time we need to build the required exposure and presence in these new markets. It’ll also enable us to more fully realise the potential of the Unboxed Network. We will be able to further grow our global community, and maximise adoption of the platform in both East and West, increasing the overall token utility.

We care deeply about our community and you are the backbone of everything we do. So, now we’d like to address how our adjusted time frame might affect you. Guess what. It’s all good. If you are one of our earliest adopters who participated in the invite-only community pre-sale, you will benefit from a shorter locking period (3 months) and the best publicly available bonus.

That puts YOU guys in a favorable position just for being with us from the very beginning! Secondly, for those equally valued members of our community who missed out on the chance to get their hands on NBOX tokens, you will still be able to do so later. Additionally, you guys will also benefit from contributing to a project that is much more mature through its strategic partnerships in East Asia, as well as its penetration and development in Asian markets. What’s more, with deep knowledge of the East on our side, we will be able to offer a much more complete and polished product.

Now it’s time for a project update. Major development has started on our MVP using the feedback received from partners: we’re incorporating blockchain oracles into the platform, developing the e-commerce side of the business to increase token utility, and working on the influencer tool-kit that enables social media users to maximize their earnings.

We at Team Unboxed are doing everything to unleash the full potential of the Unboxed Network, but as we’re sure you know, perfection takes time. We want to make sure that enough time is allocated so we can fully accomplish the vision of the project. We’re in it for the long-run and we sincerely hope that you are too.

Thanks for being part of the ever growing global Unboxed community!
