We held a live AMA with CEO: Paul Farhi, Co-Founder & Head of international operation: Adrian, Head of Business Development: Will Dyer, Eco system adviser: Anurag Yadav and Strategic Advisor: Liam on 17th December 9:00 PM (UTC+8). Here’s the recap for those who missed it.

Introduction

Serene | Shin Chan: Before AMA starts, can you give us some background on the Solidus team to our shin chan members? 😃

Solidus Guru: Yes sure

Im Will Dyer and have worked with Solidus from 2018 to now and am now heavily involved with Solidus Ai Tech mainly on the marketing side.

My core skills are business development, marketing and client retention.

Paul: Hi I’m Paul Farhi & one of the founders of Solidus AI-Tech. I have very high standards in everything I do. My main focus was property and fine art untill I was introduced to Bitcoin in 2015. Since then I have build a strong network in the cryptocurrency sphere and secured the partnership between Solidus Technologies and Soft Galaxy International. I am a forward thinker and identified very early on that Ethereum would be moving from proof of work to proof of stake meaning that Ethereum mining for Solidus Technologies would no longer be possible in the near future. I then studied Artificial Intelligence at the London business school & identified key areas that would be significant for the Solidus AI Tech project.

Liam: Hey I’m Liam I was the business and strategy advisor for the parent company Solidus Technologies during the inception stages and also advised on Solidus AI Tech. I helped raise the initial capital to get Solidus Technologies started.

Im from London, England and My back ground is finance and structuring financial instruments to raise capital for marketing and business growth.

I have been involved in the crypto scene for many years after my good friend Paul introduced me to the market, I became hooked on the possibilities of blockchain

Liam: We also have a number of team members who sit on the Board or advise for Nato, The EU and The Romanian Space Agency

Serene | Shin Chan: Thanks. Any latest/ update news about Solidus you would like to share with our community?😀

Liam: I think it would be great to watch our video

Q1: I believe security is one of the most important to consider before investing in a Project. So, can you tell us what are the security measures does Solidus have done so far? Have you done your audit? Would you mind to share it with us?

Paul: Yes agreed security is very important. We have our smart contract being built and it will be completed on the 28th of December. We will then be getting it Audited be a reputable company. We think that we should have the smart contract in place and audited by the end of January

Q2: Can you provide us with an overview of your in-house STAKING Program, which is expected in Q1 of your roadmap? What distinguishes it from other staking programs we are acquainted with? Is it currently ready,and what incentives will be provided to program participants?

Liam: We’re building a Deflationary Token Economy, one of our main objectives is to limit and reduce the Token Supply long-term. Towards that, we’ve planned to take several steps. Key being using 25% of our Quarterly Profits to Buy-back and then burn tokens. This process will go on until the Total Circulating Supply comes down to 5 billion Tokens. We’re also, of course, going to offer Staking right after we finish our Token Sale Campaign, once again limiting the supply and supporting the price.

The token is Deflationary in nature and therefore the Price increase benefits, among others will accrue to the holders.

We have a total token supply of 10 billion, out of which we are selling 4 billion in our crowdfunding campaign. The remaining tokens are dedicated to the project with the majority being development, marketing, community building. Tokenomics incorporates a deflationary mechanism and includes buyback and burning to support the overall token growth with time.

So, there is a multitude of benefits for the token holders.

Our mission is build solid community who will support us throughout our journey to success. Our community will be rewarded with the following:

Staking
Following our successful launch we will offer a staking pool which will pay token holders and estimated 7.5% per annum in our AITECH utility token which can be used to purchase AI services when our Infrastructure-as-a-Service platform launches or alternatively the tokens can be held or sold on an exchange for liquidity.

Lottery Air Drop
Stakers will be entered into a lottery each quarter and the winners will be airdropped AITECH tokens until our platform launches

Burn program
Tokens from our launch that have not have been purchased will be burned. We will then burn additional tokens from the circulation supply every quarter untill our platform launches. In addition to this we will burn a percentage of the AITECH tokens that are used to purchase services on our platform to further decrease the circulation supply.

Lock up
The team & developers token allocation will be locked in a smart contract for 4 years with a small proportion being released each year on the anniversary of the launch date.

Solidus Guru: Yes our private sale round is live and you are welcome to participate

The price is programmed with a 100% uplift from current private sale price to listing price

Its available to everyone (except US citizens)

Liam: Minimum investment is $1000 and maximum $250,000 we accept USDT, ETH and BTC

Q4: According to what I’ve read, you’re nearing completion on the construction of your ecofriendly HPC Data Center and IaaS? I’m curious as to how eco friendly your HPC facility and IaaS are. Are you a supporter of the cryptocurrency green movement?

Liam: Solidus is also a strong supporter of the ‘Crypto Climate Accord’ which is focused on decarbonising the cryptocurrency industry by 2040. Our data center will also run 40% more efficient compared to industry standards due to our IP & evaporating cooling methods, evaporating cooling is 80% cleaner then traditional air conditioning methods. The electricity costs in Bucharest are also cheaper & internet speeds are faster than most countries in the EU meaning we can operate at lower costs and also in a more Eco friendly way then our competitors.

We are the worlds first AI utilities token to be used to purchase AI services via HPC centres like we have built. Our IP allows our hardware to operate not only faster but also more efficiently by using less electricity — this is patent pending

We use evaporating cooling systems which are around 80% cleaner then traditional Air conditioning

Crypto Climate Accords main objective is to decarbonise the global crypto industry by prioritising climate stewardship and supporting the entire crypto industries transition to net-zero greenhouse gas emissions by 2040

This will be highly beneficial for the entire crypto industry

Q5: Any project’s development is 90% dependent on how strong its team is; I’ve seen many projects fail due to a lack of team skills, experience, and knowledge; so, with AITECHio, is the team qualified to achieve all of your objectives?

Liam: 14 core members although there are others who have helped to get were we are today
