It’s finally here! The Mothership team is excited to introduce you to the new Mothership Genesis! Genesis is a platform for conducting EU-based Token Sales with sophisticated security mechanisms, extensive KYC procedures and regulatory framework aligned with European Union and Estonian regulations.

For token sales participants, Genesis is a platform listing high quality projects which undergo thorough due diligence review by our team. With this initial release, BTC, ETH and LTC contributions are accepted. In the future Genesis will be integrated with Mothership exchange platform allowing participants the more extensive use of their accounts.

Genesis allows to conduct a token sale with all the legal paperwork set up to ensure secure and compliant process for all participants. We have built an easy on-boarding process, leveraging digital identities and simplifying KYC procedures. Besides the technical platform, we work closely with the project team, providing useful feedback, helping shape ideas, assisting with paperwork and token sale economics.

Integration with e-Residency & other digital identities

The Mothership Foundation firmly believes that digital identities are changing the way we conduct business over the internet. Digital identity, especially e-Residency, is one of the reasons why we chose to incorporate and work from Estonia.

Genesis leverages digital identities for user authentication, allowing eID holders to jump the queue and verify their account for participation in the token sale in seconds, without uploading their passport scans or pesky utility bills.

An eID account verification is available to e-Residents, easing the process for 25,000 more people around the world. The digital identity service besides e-Residency is available to nationals of the following countries — Estonia, Finland, Belgium, Lithuania and Latvia, making KYC process a breeze for over 22 million people in the EU.

Token reservation with MSP

MSP token holders will be able to take advantage of the right to reserve tokens before the sale at 1-to-1 ratio. Those reserved tokens will be available to purchase at the initial price of the sale. For example, if the token price scales from 6 to 8 cents during the sale, MSP reservations will guarantee you to take part at the initial price of 6 cents, no matter the progress.

The first token sale on Genesis

We are extremely proud to announce our first-ever token sale hosted on the Genesis platform. The first company to start selling their tokens on the Genesis platform is Consensus.ai whose mission is to achieve collective governance based on the interdependence using advanced technologies. The goal with the first crowdsale is to fund the development and growth of Consensus AI platform and to set a strong base for the future token sales ahead on Genesis.

Consensus is an open-sourced, decentralized artificial intelligence platform, powered by native cryptocurrency, and built with the vision to improve the governance mechanisms at all levels of organizational structures starting from startups and non-profits & finishing with cities and entire countries.

Once fully realized, Consensus AI will be able to offer automated, data-driven solutions to the most complex problems of our collective co-existence by modelling the potential outcomes of purposed changes.

Consensus is founded by Oleg Gutsol, an entrepreneur and software developer. Prior to founding Consensus, Oleg was the founder and CEO of 500px, a photo distribution platform, powered by image recognition technology and machine learning algorithms. As the CEO, Oleg led 500px from inception through hyper growth, with his help the company raised over $25M in VC funding from leading firms like Andreessen Horowitz, established major partnerships with Google, Adobe, Lonely Planet etc., and the 500px consumer platform grew to millions of users globally.

In 2016 Oleg turned his interest to the problems of collective governance and artificial intelligence applied to solving societal issues. Recently he also served as a Head of Global Growth at the Republic of Estonia e-Residency program, which provides the basis for the Consensus AI implementation.
