Swiss Alps Mining & Energy

icoevents

The blockchain community worldwide faces strong headwinds due to the very energy-intensive mining process of crypto currencies and blockchain-based business applications. At the same time, in the Swiss alps, thousands of unused structures are disintegrating due to the fact that today’s spatial planning law does not allow for residential use of these buildings.

Swiss Alps Mining & Energy connects these two worlds by offering environmentally friendly mining facilities in unused buildings in the Swiss alps, powered by renewable energy only.

Swiss Alps Energy AG (SAE) will hold an Initial Coin Offering (ICO) in June 2018. The funds raised in the ICO will be used to finance the development and expansion of the mining facilities and to acquire holdings in hydropower plants. The SAM token, Sam, is an ERC20 token. It will be used as means of payment within the SAE mining and service universe and will be tradable outside the SAM platform on all relevant exchanges.

Project Description:

Swiss Alps Energy AG (SAE) is Swiss Alps Mining & Energy’s operating business. Members of the team come from fields such as blockchain technology, crypto currency mining and hyperledger applications developers and specialists, as well as civil engineers, infrastructure engineers, and energy experts. The team has successfully developed and launched several products, solutions and applications based on the blockchain technology. The company is currently going through the application phase in order to become a member of a Swiss self-regulatory organization (SRO).

Swiss Alps Energy AG is a distributed ledger-based energy supplier and an operator of flexible modular mining infrastructures that are intended for longterm stationary use. Thereby, SAE preserves the aforementioned unused buildings in the Swiss alps and uses them sensibly and without interference with either building structure or the environment.

Swiss Alps Mining & Energy strives to enable environmentally friendly mining of crypto currencies in the Swiss alps. Swiss Alps Energy AG (SAE) is Swiss Alps Mining & Energy’s operating business. SAE is a Swiss startup company in the area of crypto mining and energy, located in Huenenberg, Canton of Zug.

SAE plans to start operating crypto mining farms in the Swiss alps in 2018 – a pioneering project. These farms are situated in buildings no longer used by local farmers. SAE will at the same time operate small hydropower plants to produce the electricity needed for crypto mining.

All the above mentioned arguments provide significant opportunities for Swiss Alps Energy AG’s operational activities:

• the blockchain technology has profound implications for the future IT infrastructure

• the exponential growth of the energy consumption of the crypto currency mining ecosystem requires more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly solutions

• the unsatisfactory situation in the Alpine areas spoils the landscape and is a burden on the residents

• the competitiveness of Swiss producers in the electricity market of the border areas is reduced

Swiss Alps Mining & Energy strives to:

• promote blockchain technology and its uses to a broader public

• provide clients/third parties the decentralized infrastructure to develeop their own blockchain-based projects

• address environmental issues associated with crypto mining worldwide

• support the local economy in Swiss alpine areas and facilitate the digital transformation in these areas

• be an electricity supplier using the distributed ledger technology

Token:

The name of the token is SAM. A total of 119 841 269 Sam tokens (100%) will be issued on the Ethereum blockchain using a smart contract. Sam will comply with the ERC20 standard and will be freely transferable on the Ethereum platform. These tokens will be the only Sam ever issued.

Token supply: 62.83%- main token sale; 12.17%- token pre-sale; 10% - founding team and partners; 8% - early angle token; advisors; 2% - bounty campaigns; 5% - future contributors.
