Segment 1️⃣: Introduction

.

Ramsy:
Hello everyone 👋 and welcome to the Crypto Miners AMA session With Astarter

Thank you all for joining us today❣

To help us learn more about the featured project of this AMA session, we are lucky to be joined by Mr. Max and Mr. Jon

Maximilian:
hi the everyone, i’m Max, BD lead of Astarter

Jon:
Hi everyone 🖐️

Ramsy:
Hello Guys 👋

Wolcome here
Thanks for bringing Us Astarter❤️

Maximilian:
Hi Jon, hi Ramsy

Ramsy:
How are you guys?

Maximilian:
i'm golden thx

let’s gw meet started

Ramsy:
I'm pretty sure that our AMA participants are very much excited to learn more about Astarter 😃

So let's get started 🤝

Jon:
Guys really looking forwarded AMA let's get started

Ramsy:
Dropping Our First Question from this segment...

Q1) Can you give a brief explanation about 'Astarter ' .What popped up in your mind to create such a platform in this Space?

Maximilian:
Astarter is a key DeFi infrastructure hub on Cardano with four core applications including Launchpad, DEX, Money Market & Tech Service Platform. We are developing decentralized finance applications for the Cardano ecosystem with the backing of EMURGO, which is a founding member of the Cardano protocol. As for now, we are in the process of creating our native launchpad on Cardano. At the same time, we are in a private sale and an early marketing stage.

Decentralized finance will be considered to be the trend of the blockchain world, and looking back to the performance of public chains in the past year, the infrastructure of major public chains is gradually improving and showing explosive growth.
As more than 200 projects on the Cardano blockchain have been announced and are ready to start launching. Since Cardano launched smart contracts, demand for user applications has skyrocketed. We do believe that Cardano will be the next most potential public chain project.

Jon:
Astarter aims to elevate its contribution and bring broader possibilities to the Cardano ecosystem by providing fair, safe, and accessible open finance services. We are targeting to meet existing and future demand in accelerating DeFi apps, therefore empowering the next generation.

In addition, before starting the Astarter project, we set up a joint venture with EMURGO, one of the founding members of Cardano, which gave the Astarter team technical guidance and support on marketing.

Ramsy:
Thanks guys for this great start 🥂

Now let's see our second question from this segment...

Q2) So what are your main features and advantages that discern you from other Projects?

Maximilian:
As a platform integrating Launchpad and DEX built on Cardano, Astarter enables projects to raise funds in an ADA-based or AA-token based decentralized and interoperable environment. With Astarter, decentralized projects will be able to quickly raise and trade at a low cost. Users will be able to participate in a safe environment and utilize assets far beyond the current ERC20 standard.

Ramsy:
Q3) How has the experience and background of your team been effective in the success of your project so far?

Jon:
Our team is distributed all over the world. The technical development team that you guys care most about, 15 professional developers bring a range of disciplines to the project focusing on Haskell smart contracts and have lots of experience from participating in the tech development of some well-known projects. For specific information on the project executive and lead team members, please go to our website: https://astarter.io

Astarter is a joint venture that began with the idea of creating decentralized exchange that can become a standard for future DeFi. We feel such an endeavour can only be achieved through strong collaborations, as a joint venture composed of seasoned professionals Astarter is well positioned to deliver not only a DEX but also the tools, products and services of a full featured DeFI hub on Cardano.

Maximilian:
As a decentralized collaboration, we bring some of the best minds and talent to the project with a wealth of experience and the backing of EMURGO, the founding member of Cardano and a key player in the development of the ecosystem.

Ramsy:
Moving on....

4) Now Share us about your Native token, What are the some of utlities of $ASTARTER Token in Your Ecosystem? And if possible share to us the Tokenomics

Maximilian:
Our native token ticker is $AA.
$AA token is the heart of Astarter, which acts as a governance token and native utility token for both the community and project infrastructure, and it can be used for participating in the IDO, staking to earn and be issued for liquidity rewards, and mortgage. Any user who holds $AA tokens can participate in ecosystem governance by voting on token utility and product function changes/additions/deletions.

Ramsy:
Q5) So how long did it take to develop this project? What plans do you have for the future? And what can we expect from Astarter? If possible could you please share road map with us.

Here's our last question from this segment

Jon:
In the past few months, we have focused our technical development on Haskell. From the very beginning, we firmly decided to develop based on Cardano instead of ERC20 or Binance smart chain. As you can see, we published our Launchpad UI design on our social media platform @AStarteranncmnt, which is a prototype of Astarter launchpad; more recently we are developing and deploying contracts on Cardano (this is the most critical and important step) and are thrilled to share with you guys that we have already successfully connected for access via Yoroi wallet.
For the whole Cardano ecosystem, what makes all members excited most is to launch a Dapp that is truly based, from the ground up, on the Cardano ecosystem. I am so proud to say that this is what we are doing right now. The major achievement target of Astarter is to launch a Launchpad based on the Cardano as soon as practically possible. According to our Roadmap, the beta version of launchpad is expected to be launched by the end of January of 2022. And the official launch of launchpad is sometime early 2022, Q1.

You can also check our website https://www.astarter.io/ for Roadmap.

Ramsy:
Thanks Guys for this well detailed introduction about Astarter:)

And that's the wrap up of our the first part of the AMA session ✅

Jon:
Great we should add about Astarter's founders

Ramsy:
Sure, Go Ahead 👍

Maximilian:
Astarter CEO Chris collaborated with Blockchain4A, and Emurgo to start the joint venture. Astarter has solid backing from industry leaders OKEx, Yoroi, NULS, Moonstake Ruby capital as well as some personal investors and advisors John from IOHK, Darren from IPOR Labs, and we are also developing working partnerships with KOLs like Altcoin Buzz and Bitboy.

yup because we're kinda "official project" with Cardano

Jon:
Max would you like to share how Astarter was founded?

Maximilian:
that's we r also proud of

Jon:
Thank you Max, Chris has lots of experience

Maximilian:
Yup and we have some well known advisors:
CEO of EMURGO Indonesia and previous Vice President of Operations at EMURGO - Sunsuke Murasaki
Head of Product at Yoroi - Sergio Sanchez Ferreros
Director of African Operations at IOHK - John O’Connor
Darren Camas advisor to EMURGO

Jon:
Chris has over 6 years experience and has worked with over 30 projects in his career. All the team are seasoned professionals in the crypto space and understand blockchain and the ecosystem very well.
Especially our technical team, most of them are former team members from onchain/ neo/ ELA project. They have rich experience in public chain development and wallet development, and the team members are relatively proficient in Haskell development language, so I believe we can do well on cardano blockchain Development.

Maximilian:
they provided us great helps in different demissions, from funding to developing and exchanges, everything

here i want to personally thank Cardano family

absotelly love them

Ramsy:
Let’s now proceed to our Twitter Questions section

i hope you're ready for that!!

Segment 2️⃣: Twitter Questions

Ramsy:
1)In Astarter's roadmap, ADEX Beta Version Development is for Q1 2022. How can The ADEX Beta Version Development contribute into Astarter? Exactly When will you release this Version?

Jon:
ADEX is in the Beta development stage, as we all know, the dex is the most important infrastructure for the DeFi world and the ecological cornerstone of the public chain. Astarter aims to be the DeFi infrastructure hub on Cardano blockchain, so the development of ADEX will be an important step in the layout of Defi for Astarter.

Ramsy:
2)Launching of the Cardano Blockchain launchpad is the mission for Q1 2022. Through this launchpad, What facilities will Astarter offer to new projects to be launched? Some new projects need fundraising. Do you have plan to fundraise the new projects?

Maximilian:
Launchpad with one-click token issuance function will go live when Astarter launchpad being launched, and the project owners can issue native tokens by one-click and raise funds easily in a safe and fair environment.

Ramsy:
3) Collaborations and partnerships are some of the most important cornerstones to help improve adoption. Can you tell us about your current partners, plans for partnerships and what everybody stands to gain from these partnership??

Jon:
We are developing new partnerships all the time and as mentioned earlier; Astarter has solid backing from industry leaders OKEx, Yoroi, NULS, Moonstake Ruby capital as well as some personal investors and advisors John from IOHK, Darren from IPOR Labs, and we are also developing working partnerships with KOLs like Altcoin Buzz and Bitboy.

Ramsy:
4)What are the highlights of Astar Tere Pad that you believe will help you succeed? How revenue does Astarter generate to sustain the project, and what plans do you have to attract more users in the future?

Maximilian:
As a platform integrating Launchpad and DEX built on Cardano, Astarter enables projects to raise funds in an ADA-based or AA-token based decentralized and interoperable environment. With Astarter, decentralized projects will be able to quickly raise and trade at a low cost. Users will be able to participate in a safe environment and utilize assets far beyond the current ERC20 standard.

Jon:
I would add...

We will strictly screen high-quality and promising projects to benefit our supporters from IDO. In addition, staking-to-earn, money market and other financial services will go live in the future.

Ramsy:
Let's hear our last question from this segment...

5)how do you attract a wide range of people, including non-English speaking people??? Do you have plans to attract non-English speakers to your project?

Segment 3️⃣: Live QnA
(In this segment group was opened for 60 seconds and Miners sent hundreds of questions. Guests choose some best to answer)

1)🙏🙏 Elhmdollah 🙏🙏:
What are the best advantages of your "Astarter_Pad" project Can you point out the main strengths of your project that other projects dont have? How your team trying to attract new users from other Projects?

Maximilian:
we are built natively on cardano haskell while we provide 2 way cross-chain bridge, and for projects with or without haskell background we have tech support from one click token issurance to SaaS, we are really proud with what we can bring to Cadano ecosystem and what are we capable of, with support from EMURGO we are like the first over more than 200 projects

2) Demvrick:
In Astarter, I saw "Two - Tiered Token Models". Could you please elaborate this Token models? Why this model is important for Astarter Ecosystem and also for us?
@J31337c

Jon:
For fair distribution, from the start, allowing for greater participation whitelisting etc. It’s important for projects to have options to present their tokens in as safe and professional way as possible on Astarter Launchpad IDO

3) 💫 Slow Action 💫:
Do You Have AUDIT Certificates Or Are You Working To AUDIT Your Project.? To Make It More Secure And Reliable???

Maximilian:
we have strong connection with mainstream audit firms, as a matter of fact we have our audition on every updates, take one click token issurance as example we have our contract audited to provide security for users just simply type needed infos and your token will be issued with top level security

4) 💫 Jenifer Trumps 💫:
Is Your Platform Suitable For Crypto Beginners? Or Dose it Only limited For Professional Users?

Jon:
Asrarter Launchpad has a one click token issuance feature which can help remove barriers for beginners etc. Astarter has four key components; Launchpad, DEX (ADEX), Money Market, and Tech Service all will have documentation and tutorials and our team will be available to offer support for those not familiar with DeFi

5) Mrs. Novita Zheyng:
My Important Question: IS This Your project only for elite investors, how about others with small funds, is it open to everyone?2022

Maximilian:
we have our private round pretty hot among tier 1 VCs however we also have allocations for individuals investors, everyone has chance to be a part of astartees and a member of Cardano family. We also have cooperations with projects in Cardano familys, the pie is big enough for everyone
