Most of you who fall into this group have already reached out to us which has helped us find a resolution. Thank you. If you fall into Group 1: Subgroup C and haven’t reached out to us, please do; hello@particl.io.

For clarification, if your dashboard has a balance in the SDC REQUIRED field then you donated more BTC then what was automatically displayed in your BTC REQUIRED field. The majority of SDC/BTC sent straight to the transparency addresses has been straight donations but a few of you have reached out to us saying you accidentally sent tokens there versus the addresses you generated in your dashboard. If you accidentally sent it straight to the SDC/BTC transparency addresses (A common confusion for donators used to Proof of Burn fundraisers and/or Ethereum ICOs) then we will work with you to properly link your funds and apply any 15% bonus (only available for over-donated BTC) after the completion of the token exchange. By law our multi-signature transparency wallets can’t be accessed by our custodians until the terms of the exchange are completed.

Group 1 next steps:

The final Terms for the new Particl (PART) tokens is being finalized by our Legal council and in the coming days we will be contacting you to have you login to your dashboard. A new mechanism for generating a personal receiving address offline and linking it to your account for PART distribution will be active, along with an updated Terms and Conditions. For now hold tight, you are ready for the next steps.
