After a successful private sale, which allowed us to reach our softcap in only 2 hours, our ICO has come to an end with 8 649 977 million DAN tokens sold.
Despite the capricious market in the recent months, we are happy to announce that our token sale was a great success, thanks to 1581 backers.
We owe this success to our community’s overwhelming support and trust. We couldn’t have achieved this goal without our investors and, of course, without our wise advisors and their precious insights. We’re moving forward with full confidence in the future of the project and its development.
Our ICO by the numbers (including bonuses) :
Public sale (01/29/2018–03/05/2018): 8 649 977 DANs sold
Total amount raised : 2616 ETH
We had to make a decision regarding the unsold tokens, here is a little retrospective about the new token distribution:
Unsold tokens burning and redistribution
Here is the balance sheet of our sale: we sold 8 649 977 DAN tokens during ICO. Let’s calculate the amount of unsold tokens (regarding crowdsales supply, total sold during ICO and total sold during presale) :
60 000 000-(8 649 977+217 888) = 51 132 135 unsold tokens
We have spent time reflecting on how to offer the best token distribution after the sale in regards to several important criteria. We have concluded that we will burn 60% of all the unsold tokens and redistribute 40% of them proportionally to all our investors. So with the final figures: for 51 132 135 unsold tokens, 30 679 281 (60%) tokens will be burnt and 20 452 854 (40%) will be distributed.
So, how many DANs will you receive?
For 100 DANs bought (including your bonus), you will have 236.44 DANs redistributed, so your new total will be 336.44 DANs. So, if you want to calculate your new total, you multiply your DANs by 3.3644.
This new distribution model has many advantages:
The burning process reduces the total supply on the market and potentially contribute to an appreciation of the token price
This new distribution model allows our community to continue to dominate the market, jointly holding 56% of all tokens.
With the redistribution, investors sustain their value by receiving more tokens on their initial investment.
This new distribution model guarantee the liquidity on the market and the scalability of the project as our token will be the only way to subscribe and use Daneel’s service.

Here are the next steps:

All tokens will be distributed within 3 weeks, counting from the date of the end of the ICO. You will receive your DANs in your ERC20 wallet.

We will communicate about the process in detail in a future article.
