- legal framework with our (external) lawyers
- token economics
- token engineering / Smart Contract development
- webdesign for ICO sale platform / landing pages
- Sale platform including:
- Crypto payments (BTC, ETH)
- Fiat payments
- whitelisting

- ERC20 or ERC 721 based tokens
- vesting contracts for team related tokens
- referral-/affiliate program

Quote: This way we can support any ICO team for everything that needs to be done in order to do a successful Crowdsale, while the team itself can fully focus on its own product.
