In exactly one week, at 20:00 UTC on September 20, 2017, the Hash Rush ICO will start. For one month, until 20:00 UTC on October 20, people across the globe will be able to invest in Hash Rush and acquire the new cryptocurrency Rush Coin. In this article we’ll provide you with everything you need to know about the ICO, such as the potential bonuses, the benefits of participating early, and more!

Hash Rush ICO

First, let’s talk about the ICO specifics. The initial conversion rate is 1000 Rush Coin to every 1 Ether. However, you can join the ICO with Ethereum, Bitcoin, Ethereum Classic and Qtum. Should you choose to participate with a different currency than Ethereum, we will calculate your funds’ equivalent Ethereum value and award Rush Coin tokens accordingly.

Benefits and bonuses

Once you participate in the ICO, you may receive certain bonuses, depending on the day you choose to participate. The earlier you participate, the higher your bonus. This works as follows:

Day 1–3: 20% bonus

Day 4–6: 15% bonus

Day 7–9: 10% bonus

Day 10–12: 5% bonus

Day 13–30: 0% bonus

As an example, if you participate on day 11, you receive 1050 Rush Coin for every 1 Ether. On the other hand, if you choose to invest on day 2, you would receive 1200 Rush Coin for every Ether. In addition, people who choose to invest during the first three days do not only get a 20% Rush Coin bonus, but will also be granted early access to play Hash Rush.

But wait — there’s more!

Whatever day you chose to participate in the ICO, all investors have the chance to receive in-game unit cards and items, and choose which faction they’d like to play, without having to wait in queue.

Receiving RC tokens

In order to participate in the ICO, you need an ERC-20 compliant wallet in which to receive your Rush Coins. We recommend using My Ether Wallet or the official Ethereum Wallet (Mist). Our Ethereum, Ethereum Classic, Bitcoin, and Qtum wallet addresses will be available on our site when the ICO is live. You simply send your funds in the cryptocurrency of your choice, and once the transaction is confirmed, you will receive your Rush Coin tokens. Please note that regardless of the currency you send, you will need an Ethereum wallet address to receive your tokens.
