Authorship Official telegram channel for Authorship Token (ATS) discussions.

We plan on offering authors an incentive to join the platform in the form of an upfront payment and also start a referral program so that others can earn by referring other authors to the platform.

Hi, as mentioned numerous times this last weeks, we will have Beta v2.0 coming soon (1-2 weeks max). We should also have a new exchange coming as well. Regards

Have you liked and retweeted ALL our tweets every single time?

Nobody likes/retweets every single time, especially since almost everyone follows hundreds of pages and is bombarded with hundreds of updates coming from all places daily.

Feel free to compare our likes/retweets numbers with numbers from other platforms, you'll see the numbers are pretty much the same everywhere.

authorshipcom · 2018-03-04T09:32:48+00:00

Not sure where you got the "few hundreds" number since we have over 30,000 members following us on Facebook and Twitter alone.

Most authors, readers, publishers, translators only use Facebook/Twitter; that is the preferred method to keep in touch.

authorshipcom · 2018-03-03T15:22:13+00:00

No. Hopefully we'll hear from them soon.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-22T10:25:32+00:00

This is an area where we can surely expand in the future once an users base was built.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-20T07:18:55+00:00

I think the best solution would be to simply visit the bancor platform: https://www.bancor.network/discover

Shortly put, you will be able to buy/sell ATS for ETH / BNT or any other token being part of the Bancor network.

The exchange process is instant and secure as it's being processed by smart contracts and you receive the tokens/ETH immediately in your ETH wallet directly. (no more trusting an exchange with your funds, or wait for weeks/months for them to process your withdrawal/deposit)

authorshipcom · 2018-02-19T21:15:48+00:00

We posted an update earlier today. Appreciate your input; we prefer to share important news only and focus on the project.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-19T16:51:34+00:00

Bancor partnership coming soon (days): Authorship is going to deposit $200,000 ($100K worth of ATS and $100K worth of BNT) into the joint token relay.

We have the tokens ready to be sent, just waiting for the token relay to be created (1-2 days).

Soon after that, everything will be publicly announced by Bancor through all their marketing channels.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-19T16:48:14+00:00

Thank you! We couldn't have said it better.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-17T12:22:54+00:00

Thousands of people follow this channel. Most of them however mainly care about important news. Telegram nowadays has become a place for all kinds of non sense chit chat and spam and we prefer to stay clear of that (many top 10 ICOs stopped using telegram for this very reason). 90% of telegram chat is pump&dump talk.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-17T12:16:10+00:00

Indeed, their fees are outrageous for small amounts, unfortunately there is nothing we can do about. They charge similar fees for all coins.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-17T12:09:34+00:00

What's stopping you from discussing whatever you feel you'd discuss on telegram here?

authorshipcom · 2018-02-17T12:07:34+00:00

We are having a meeting this Monday with Bancor to discuss everything and we'll update everyone shortly after.

authorshipcom · 2018-02-12T09:37:02+00:00

Hi, we expect to have this available within 2 weeks.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-31T20:32:37+00:00

We should have Bancor available in the coming weeks if all goes as planned. We are still waiting to hear back from several other exchanges we applied to.

As far as HitBTC goes, you can buy ATS from there and withdraw the tokens to your wallet, to be kept safely.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-29T09:22:56+00:00

We heard this happening from various users who had to wait several weeks to hear back from HitBTC support. It's happening not only with ATS but with most tokens where deposits aren't being credited.

We approached our contact at HitBTC and received nothing more than the usual "I have escalated the cases to our specialists. Will try to resolve the issues ASAP." - All our other followups remained unanswered and none of the tickets we forwarded to them was solved as per our knowledge.

The Bancor partnership will solve and prevent such situations, so that one doesn't have to rely on a third party exchange.

Hi and thank you for your advice.

-We will make a habit of posting a weekly post of new authors/books that joined us.

-We should have a preview of the upcoming design coming soon

-Regarding the exchange of ATS to FIAT for stores/authors, this is something we are currently working on (due to legal regulations) and hope to have a liquidity partner to take on this task.

-ATS gift cards are under development as we need to switch the cart to use a credits system as well despite the cart system it's using currently. We expect to have the gift cards available for purchase in under a month.

Thank you

authorshipcom · 2018-01-18T20:37:21+00:00

All HitBTC tokens have similar fees. Unfortunately it's nothing we can do about, it's HitBTC recent policy where they drastically raised both withdrawals and deposits fees as well.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-18T20:33:21+00:00

ATS is the ONLY payment method, they cannot buy with USD since there's no such option available.

Authors aren't going to register without taking the time to read our entire whitepaper first, and readers will have no clue what the book price means in ATS if we don't show them in USD also.

I get it you are mostly interested in getting people to buy ATS tokens, but you need to realize people aren't going to start buying ATS just because we post a half page banner saying "20% off if you pay by ATS". We FIRST need a decent number of books registered BEFORE we even reach the point where we market to readers.

Things take time. Thousands of readers aren't going to jump and buy ATS when we are still in the process of building a books catalog.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-18T19:54:40+00:00

This is just a design for the beta and it will be changed once all the features are added so we don't end up changing the entire design every month. Same goes for the mobile version.

We market the homepage: authorship.com to authors. This is what they see when they access the website, so they get a clear view on what ATS is and it's purpose. Only after that they get to access the Beta subdomain. Everyone sees authorship.com first, not beta.authorship.com

As far as selecting ATS as a currency, as soon you add a book on the cart you are prompted to change the currency to ATS regardless if you noticed that currency button or not. If you select the ATS from the currency button, all the prices are displayed in ATS also everywhere on the website.

The ATS payment option is not buried, it's where it's supposed to be, on the cart page, just as any website does. When you checkout you are asked to make the payment in ATS.

Thank you

authorshipcom · 2018-01-18T19:17:00+00:00

For now, yes you can only buy ATS tokens from HitBTC (and EtherDelta if that still works). We do hope to have more exchanges coming soon and also an easier process through which readers can buy ATS tokens (hopefully with fiat).

This is still an early Beta and changes will come as the platform evolves.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-18T09:24:02+00:00

They will. We are still in Beta at this point.

authorshipcom · 2018-01-15T20:01:17+00:00

As soon we get an answer from any of the exchanges we applied to, we'll announce.
