Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: That’s a great background 👀👏
How did you come up with the idea of creating Bull Perks?
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Please give us a words about what is the essence of Bullperks.
Constantin Kogan: Good question, we went through all the pains of personal investments and high barrier to enter great opportunities. I personally worked with a lot of High Net Worth Individuals (HNWI) while being a part of first Fund of Funds in crypto sapce and one of the tope digital asset wealth manager and quickly understood that the opportunities to even have access to exceptional early stage projects are very limited for people who don’t qualify for HNWI status. Equality of opportunities is important to us. Analyzing the market we wanted to create a fair game for every person, therefore we decided to create BullPerks with a core value to be fair to everyone in terms of opportunities. In other words, we bring to the table experience from traditional finance to crypto world by democratizing access to every investor.
In essence we strive to be the most fair platform for great early stage crypto projects by providing a chance to invest in these projects
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: So is your project able to host IDO’s?
Constantin Kogan: Correct, we are both a Decentralize VC and a Launchpad. That’s a unique combination that we were searching for ourselves
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club:[22.05.21 19:58]
👏
Innovative idea 😄
Constantin Kogan: It’s all about execution, in my humble opinion
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: A correct way to do the things👏
Thank you for this clear introduction, we have collected some community questions. Are you ready to proceed?
Q1 from Telegram User @kimterbear
On your website, the thing that caught my attention are your investment models: Titanium, Gold, Silver. What is the difference between these three and what is the use and access allowed for each tier?
Constantin Kogan: The main difference are the chances to particiapte in a particular deal. People who hold Titanium level will naturally have better chances to get an allocation
You can think about it as a membership in a club with more perks depending on the level
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: As a vip level, right?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Just like different stairs 😄
Constantin Kogan: Sort of, but we tried to make sure that the difference won’t be substantial to maintain fair play for investors who can’t afford higher tiers
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: How can projects apply to Titanium level? What is needed?
Constantin Kogan: The levels are for investors not for the projects
Projects are able to apply for a listing via a form, we are soon updating our website to offer a dedicated page to automate this process
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: I love this idea! So that everyone has more or less the same possibilities 😄👏
Constantin Kogan: Correct, but also have a chance to upgrade
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: We have another question somehow similar to this one, so, do you want to share more clarifications on it? It’s question number 4 😉😄
Constantin Kogan: Of course, once you know which tier and Bull type you are, then see which projects are available to this tier. Different tiers have allocations to different deals. Then if you’re interested in a project and there is an allocation you will need to choose it and connect your wallet and transfer the funds and wait for a confirmation.
Projects that are listed on Ethereum will receive allocations in USDC/USDT (ERC-20), similar if it’s Binance Smart Chain it will be BEP-20 standard
In a nutshell, you will have to hold 10,000 BLP tokens to quilify for Silver tier
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Will you support more chains?
Constantin Kogan: Our plan is to be multichain project, so yes. Solana, Tezos, Cardano are in the roadmap
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Huge chains 😳😄🚀
Ready to jump into the next question? 😊
Q2 from Telegram User @victorogb
Bullperks describes itself “as a community of like minded individuals who want to leverage their power and invest together in the best projects at the same terms as VC’s”. This statement resonantes through the core purposes of most VCs. However, BullPerks being a new project with a pretty small number of dedicated community members, is in a VC market that is clearly dominated by known brands and projects who have built a reputation in DeFi and crytocurency. Therefore, how will BullPerks look to create a unique niche for itself through it’s products, partnership and services, ultimately pushing it’s growth and development drive?
Constantin Kogan: Right now we are doing a lot of marketing efforts to attract users but at the same time we focus on the product striving to make it great and have usage in order to make them happy! We’re doing AMA’s and competitions to spread the word and then offer amazing projects to our community to participate in and more which will drive the usage and justify holding our tokens and buying more. We will advertise and market to non crypto channels as well to use the community power in the future to get them access to things both in the crypto and non crypto worlds. In addition, we have strong support from celebrities and people from traditional financial background. Soon you’ll major actor from Brave Heart and Game of Thrones supporting our cause.
Besides that we have about 12 partnership announcements
Our investors are top players in the industry with huge communities, so in the coming 2 weeks you will see a lot of buzz about BullPerks
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Game of Thrones!! OMG.
When Money Geist ones? 😄😄
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Any easter egg for us? Could you tell us about one of those partnerships?
Constantin Kogan: For now I can announce only everything that is public, with dozens of Key Opinion Leaders accross the world. So we have access to influencers with a cumulative audience of 100M+ subscribers
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: We will keep in touch then
Looking forward to have more news about this 😄😄
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Thanks for the answer, are you ready to go with the next question?😃
Constantin Kogan: Yes
Q3 from Telegram User @h1drX
I was reading your roadmap but was intrigued to read your goals for Q4 2021, “Shop and Play NFT”, could you tell us a little more about this? What will these changes to the platform consist of? What will these changes bring?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: It was obvious a question related to NFTs was going to appear 😅
Constantin Kogan: We will be incorporating NFT’s in the future and will also offer an NFT store. We’re always keeping on learning and evolving so will monitor the market trends and adapt. Our commitment is to listen to the community feedback and incorporate the changes to constantly improve our product. We will also partner with some portfolio companies to integrate ability to exchange NFT’s from different platforms as well as creating your own. The main point would be to add mroe value to our community.
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Btw, could you share with us your roadmap?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: How will you communicate actively with the community?
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: That’s amazing, great things are coming🥳
Constantin Kogan: June 9th is the focal point of our Roadmap, that’s our own IDO. The rest we will update on the website.
Onboarding new members of the team with core skillset of community building and support this month. Next week we will announce a new hire
Head of Growth
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Have you published the info about your IDO? How to join?
Constantin Kogan: We’re finalizing everything with top Launchpads who will partner with us on the IDO. The plan is to do dual or even tripple IDO simultaneously
The best way it to follow our https://t.me/BullPerksAnnouncements/
or https://t.me/BullPerks_Official
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Let’s check it Satoshiclubbers🥳
And let’s join btw
Thank you for the clarification. Time to proceed with the next question, are you ready or do you want to add something else?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Thank you Constantin 😉
Q4 from Telegram User @Korryl
I read that Bull Perk have create token name with $BullPerks Tokens. So could you tell us what are the advantage by holding Bull Perk token? There are also available the “Tier System” And level for the holder itself, can you explain how does the “Tier System” work ?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Partially covered, do you want to add something else? 😄
Constantin Kogan: BLP token will represent the access to participate in the Tiers, I’ve partially answered about this before. To add another unique feature about our project, the 3% fees on investment will go fully to buy backs.
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: What is the tokenomics of BLP? How is the token distribution?
Constantin Kogan: You can see details about the tokenomics here https://bullperks.com/tokenomics
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: 27,5% Treasury, what is the aim of that pool?
Constantin Kogan: Basically any Treasury is there to serve several goals: to satisfy a number of essential criteria, which include cost efficiency, security, and the ability to liquidate reserves at short notice.
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Wise choice
Are you planning any token burn?
Constantin Kogan: Good question. There is a fee for participating in the decentralized VC deals as every other competitor have. However, in our case the fees will be lower and will go to buying back our tokens from the exchange as well as a portion of the company profits will go to buy back tokens as well.
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: Sounds great! Thank you. Ready for the next question?
Constantin Kogan: Yes
Q5 from Telegram User @highpee
You planned to launch Bullperks on BSC, ETH and on 3 other chains in this Q2. You also plan to raise $2,120,000 from presales with half of this expected to come from private investors. However, none of the sale event has been carried out yet. With just a week left in this month, and one month to end Q2, will it still be possible for you to launch Bullperks on the 5 chains this quarter? Have you already gotten the desired VCs partners and private investors to lead the seed/private sale? Can you project when these sales will take place especially the public sale and how it will be conducted ? When will the platform eventually go live and what are the 3 additional chains you will be launching on?
Constantin Kogan: Just to clarify few details. 3 other chains will come later. We’ve already closed Seed, Strategic and Private. You can see a full list of our investors on our Home page, actually we’re oversubscribed with top VC who support us including x21, Follow The Seed, GD10 Ventures, Moonwhale Ventures, Shima Capital and many others.
Our plan it to launch an IDO which will be a Public sale, as I’ve mentioned before the ambitious date is June 9th. Shortly after we’ll start onboarding other projects
We closed our private raise im less than 2 weeks 🙂
which signifies trust in the team as a backbone of the project
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Have you audited your platform before the coming public sale?
Constantin Kogan: We are planning to do it but since we will not launch an IDO on our platform that’s less of a concern. We will have to 2 independent audits conducted to ensure the safety of the code and smart contracts. In talks with top auditing companies at the moment and already provide a draft of our smart contract to 2 of them.
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: Great, safety first
Thank for share the info. Is time to proceed with the last question of this part of the AMA, would you like to add something before?
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: The last question is knocking at the door…
Constantin Kogan: Yes, I think it makes sense to mention our contest that is currently running and 3 more will be launched before the IDO.
✅ Check how to enter HERE (https://bullperks.com/contest/) !
We also thought through the future of the token by making the initial market cap very low (just below $400K) and we put in place long vesting so no VC or big holder can dump and also limited their ticket size so no one will hold too much and we have clause in the SAFT that makes it clear that if they dump they will be refunded.
We will do everything needed to try and protect our community and holders!
Andrés M. | Satoshi Club: That’s what we call a crypto gem😁
Thank you Constantine, let’s proceed.
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club: 💎💎
Q6 from Telegram User @belkysgonzalez
Can any startups acquire your services to raise capital or is there some kind of test they have to pass? Do you have a certain criteria you base on to allow the startups to participate in BullPerks? If so, can you tell us what are the aspects that you value the most in these projects?
Constantin Kogan: We are open to have a conversation with smart entreprenuers in the space and assist them with all we can. Albeit we will conduct a strict due dillgence for every project. Inspecting the founders background, legal structure, tokenomics, securirty etc. What matters is an elegant solution coming out of real pain/problem with a clear path to execution & growth. Once we identify such opportunity, we will do everything to make this project successful
Part 2 — live questions from the Telegram community
Q1 from telegram username @Sumione
Will you support staking and farming options in the future? What else can hodlers do ?
Constantin Kogan: Yes, we will support both staking and farming in the future
Q2 from telegram username @Medo1234568
How will your project generate profits / income to sustain your project and what is the revenue model?
Constantin Kogan: We expect profits from the projects we invest in and will have a fee to list projects. Our buyback program is another strong incentive. The 3% fees on investment will go fully to buy backs as I’ve mentioned before. All the profits from the sales of the NFT store. Using 10% of the profits of the company investments. We expect the pick the winners as we did before hence our community will grow with us.
Q3 from telegram username @FZayyid
Have you considered on putting some Bullperks ambassadors for those community who don’t speak English as their language? If yes, can you mention which ambassadors for which language available?
Constantin Kogan: Yes, this is a great idea and we’re in touch with several ambassadors in Europe, Asia, Australia. Open to partner with more.
Q4 from telegram username @My1queen
Hi✋✋
Your roadmap plan to launch an Influencer Marketing Agency that will merge brands with influencers. How will this be implemented?And what will be the work routine of this marketing agency ?
Constantin Kogan: We’ve partnered with 2 agencies, so far our investor are instrumental to introductions to influencers. We have 50+ great thought leaders to work with via those intros.
Q5 from telegram username @Mariana436
I have seen many defi projects recently appeared, and they died because of lack of liquidity and confidence in developers. How do you convince investors about this problem?
Constantin Kogan: You’re correct, it’s a real issue. The only honest answer is building strong community, have more partnerships and make sure you do the moves with marketing. Moreover, some early investors dump the tokens as soon as they unlock, we are hoping to build a community of longterms players helping projects to balance their liquidity by increasing interest. We also partner with professional market making agencies.
