Pillar Token Pre-Sale Sells Out in 40 Minutes

We are amazed that our smart contract collected the full $4Million in less than 40 minutes

Last night, Swiss blockchain innovation company Twenty Thirty hosted a pre-sale for their new Pillar token. The Pillar wallet will be a next-generation “universal smart wallet” to help people with their everyday tasks. The Pillar token proved popular on a global scale selling $4,300,208.46 in 34 minutes to 1,430 participants.

Over 99% of the allocated Pillar tokens were sold in the first 20 minutes of sale. People continued to attempt to purchase the final 1% of tokens, however most attempts were unsuccessful, with a total of $3.2Million rejected from 1,049 people.

This Saturday July 15 Twenty Thirty will be hosting their main token sale to raise $50million for the open-source Pillar project at 8:00 AM London time (GST), which will last 60 hours.

The Pillar wallet will hold people’s assets and become their personal digital assistant - a personal dashboard - powering all their devices. The Pillar wallet will be powered by Pillar tokens that can be used to fund payments around the web.

2030 CEO David Siegel was surprised at the popularity of the token. “I’d like to extend my thanks to everyone who has shown interest in the Pillar project and become part of the Pillar family,” he said.

“We are amazed that our smart contract collected the full $4Million in less than 40 minutes. We had recently added another $3Million to the pre-sale and it sold out immediately. The next chance for people to buy Pillar tokens will come this Saturday. People interested should read the various pages on our web site and sign up for our newsletter.”

The token sale will be priced on Friday afternoon and will start at 8:00 AM London UK time on Saturday, July 15th. The sale will run for 60 hours or until all 528 million available tokens are sold.

Pillar is staffed by a group of over 30 global volunteers, who are part of the Twenty Thirty blockchain community. Advisors to the project include USA-based Kirt McMaster, Phil Windley and Kaliya Hamlin plus Efi Pylarinou, from Switzerland, and UK-based Anish Mohammed, Jonny Fry and Thomas Power.

The Pillar Token Sale plans to raise $25 to $50 million to build their open-source personal-data ecosystem on July 15th. After a successful Token Sale, the team will set up the UK’s first blockchain-only innovation centre in London.
