All Six Teams are in Ljubljana!

Here in Cofound.it HQ the adrenaline is kicking in as the six chosen Seed teams have gathered for their final pep-talks with their coaches before the big event tomorrow. I’m sure you have been reading the Cofound.it blog religiously as part of your personal preparations for the Cofound.it Playoffs but just in case … here’s a quick recap of the key checkpoints happening over the next 48 hours.

Phase 1 Details and 50 ETH to Teams from Cofound.it

If you haven’t already, now is the time read through the team whitepapers, blog posts and check your Phase 1 Contribution limits (log into your Cofound.it account; limits are listed on the project pages) so that come 10 AM CET tomorrow (Nov 30!) you are ready to log in and start contributing to your fav team. And if you’ve got a couple you like the look of — go on — treat yourself!

It will be a good idea to get your contributions in early because one hour after Phase 1 starts Cofound.it will be contributing 50 ETH to each team. Yep you heard me correctly — we are backing each team with our own money. That is how much we believe in all of them! Go Teams!

Phase 2 and the Global Party Starts!

All teams will be appearing on stage at the Cofound.it Playoffs in Ljubljana closing out Phase 1 with on-stage interviews starting at 5 PM CET — this is when our global live stream starts as well! If you’re still undecided on which team to support, the showcase can help you choose your favourites. After that, Phase 2 will kick off at 6:30 PM CET — with unlimited contributions from all whitelisted members.

Someone asked me “What’s it going to be like watching the Playoffs?” Now, I don’t really want to give away any of the secret-amazing-cool-stuff our team has planned but if you envision a funky melding of Eurovision, Dragon’s Den and the Super Bowl that you watch on your computer with a good internet connection I think you’ll have a pretty good idea what to expect.

#cfiplayoffs

While you are watching all the fun in Slovenia, be sure to use the official hashtag #cfiplayoffs on your favorite social media. (Don’t forget pics of your Snack Stadiums!) Tell us where you are and how you are celebrating the first ever live crowdsale on the blockchain — you might even get a shout-out on the live stream.

End of Live Stream and Phase 2

Alas, all good things must come to an end and the livestream will end at 9 PM CET Collective sad noises from those of us around the globe — while you lucky ducks at Kino Siška — this is when your amazing party gets going! Phase 2 of the crowdsales will end when the Seed stage hard cap is reached for each team or 4 PM CET on Friday, Dec 1, whichever comes first.

So there you have it. We are going to have a very BUSY couple of days so get a good night’s sleep, set up your snack stadium, cooler full of drinks, and settle into your comfy chair to watch history being made by the Cofound.it community!

I’ll you see on #cfiplayoffs!
