We'll be at Consensus in NYC! Stop by the Cardstack booth 2-4 PM — if you show us you're a member of this Telegram group, you'll get a limited edition Cardstack tee, while supplies last.

Friendly reminder to users currently submitting KYC / Whitelisting through the TGE Dashboard—Please note that you must submit a hand-signed copy of Form A before your applications can be reviewed and approved. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask an admin in our discussion channel.

Our dashboard app for KYC/Whitelisting is now live. Users may now begin to submit KYC applications through https://cardstack.com/. We have noticed that the automated system by our third-party compliance provider, IdentityMind Global, is having intermittent issues under load. If you experience an error submitting your KYC application, please be patient and try again later. All eligible participants will be able to get in, so don’t worry. You have until May 20, which should give everyone enough time.

Today we're ready to announce the planned date of our Crowd Fundraiser (Batch C): May 24, 2018. You can read all about it here: https://medium.com/cardstack/an-update-on-the-crowd-fundraiser-of-cardstacks-token-generation-event-dbbef0e8d729

We are sorting out a last-minute issue with the dashboard that surfaced when we initiated the software deployment. We apologize — the app will be live as soon as possible. As a reminder, KYC/Whitelisting is not a first-come, first-serve process. You have until May 20, and all eligible participants will be able to get whitelisted for the TGE.

Hi all — we're very excited to unveil the Cardstack TGE dashboard app, which many of you will get to use tomorrow. https://medium.com/cardstack/introducing-the-cardstack-token-generation-event-tge-dashboard-9d5e3654f377

Dear Cardstack community, we’re pleased to announce that the KYC/AML process for the Crowd Fundraiser (Batch C) of the Token Generation Event will open tomorrow, May 10, 2018 at 17:00 CEST (Zurich), 23:00 SGT (Singapore), 11:00 EDT (New York City). This process will be open to members of our community who have signed up on our email list, or our Whitelist Pre-Signup, on or before May 8, 2018. We anticipate very high demand, so you may experience some congestion during peak times. If you encounter issues, please be patient and try again a little later. We will follow up shortly with the date of the Token Generation Event opening. Thank you for your continued support.
