Where traditions and innovations complete each other

Transcription

1 Where traditions and innovations complete each other Sometimes the crypto community is exposed to a significant risk, so what Global Academy Place has created is an asset with only one direction of the price - UP.

2 Introduction Nowadays investors are disputing over what is better to invest in traditional startups or to invest in ICO projects. But where is the truth? More security or shorter return horizon? Selling a product, services or creating a self-sustaining circular economy with its own currency or token? What about making all advantages work together, or in other words creating the Golden zone?

4 1.Global Academy Place (the product) 1.1. The problem Most people on our planet work to earn a living. They do it with the sole purpose of providing a better life for themselves, as well as their family. That is why buying a new home or a car are some of the biggest milestones in their life. Working so hard leaves them no time for their friends and family, which contributes to not leading a healthy life. They do it simply for the money and do not enjoy themselves in most cases. We know that all these people have enormous potential and do not deserve just to 'earn a living'. All of them have implied needs and if we help them a little bit, they will be able to chase what really matters and live their lives to the full, without worrying about money How do we solve the problem? In short: Global Academy Place We believe that a proper education is the most important step to living a better life. Let's take a look at what kind of education suits best the type of people we mentioned above. The lack of money and not doing what they love are their problems so that is what we are aiming to solve with our courses. We teach them step by step how to be financially stable, while still having time to lead a social life, as well as giving them the chance to become a part of our team. We believe in our students and will not let them down How do we educate? We create a global ecosystem where everyone can take the most suitable place for themselves. Global Academy Place includes courses that prepare its students to participate in the global financial markets on their own. By finishing any of our courses, the students can choose one or several of the opportunities we offer: Trading in our future investment funds; Developing or selling our courses; Taking part in one of our sections (Marketing team, IT team, etc.) We do not give only education, we give realization.

5 1.4. Global Academy Place student s pathway: We realize that it is impossible for all of our students to love trading, marketing, IT and our other activities. But what they are taught subconsciously going through the course is the behavior of an investor. They develop the skill to invest time and money in order to make a profit. By being an investor in Global Academy Place, you create new investors and make their lives better! The main principle of our Academy is based on personal realization by education.

6 1.5. How does Global Academy Place work? We are developing a FOREX course and a sales course, so we need more resources to make it as flawless as possible and continue its future upgrading. The goal of Global Academy Place is to have students all around the world by translating the courses into diverse languages. Our courses are paid and that is the main source of our profit. By having a FOREX and a sales course that upgrade themselves non-stop, we can attract many partners like brokers, banks and other financial institutions. While developing the FOREX course we are going to create courses about cryptocurrencies (about trading and programming smart contracts) because we believe that is the future. We expect the cryptocurrency courses to be the most popular, compared next to the other courses. Creating and developing courses about the stock and the commodity markets will be our next step after the cryptocurrency course How do we know our courses are going to be successful? More and more people start trading in the financial market without having enough knowledge and skills- that is why 90% of the traders are unsuccessful. All of them are willing to make an investment. By buying one of our courses, you invest in yourself. What differs us from the other online schools is that we give real chances to our students to make money using the variety of opportunities we offer to them (trading, developing courses, selling courses, etc.) We have been asked repeatedly for courses about cryptocurrencies and we are surely expecting a lot of attention from future students, after the crowdsale. We will also look into creating a place where thousands of our graduates will be with a clear vision for their professional realization in their personal branch. Moreover, like a global academy, we aim to have the resources to make our courses more available to future students by optimizing the price in every country and translating the courses.

7 2. Funding 2.1. Funding of the Academy The funding of the Academy is done by using Initial Coin Offering (ICO). The token, that is going to be available for purchase during the crowdsale period, is GAP (Global Academy Place) and is going to be bought with Ethers (ETH). However, our project is a lot more than a simple ICO. Behind our tokens stands a stable, global business and this is the exact reason why we can guarantee our investors profit due to buybacks. Target: GAP / ETH Cap: GAP / ETH Investor levels Stages of the crowdsale 1 ETH Price of GAP Max. return Level 1 To 600 collected ETHs 100 GAP 0,0100 ETH 400% Level 2 From 601 to 1100 collected ETHs 80 GAP 0,0125 ETH 300% Level 3 From 1101 to 1600 collected ETHs 60 GAP 0,0166 ETH 200% Level 4 After the target 40 GAP 0,0250 ETH 100% 120 GAPs = 1 ETH ETH 20 0 To 600 collected ETHs From 601 to 1100 collected ETHs From 1101 to 1600 collected ETHs After the target The target is the minimum amount of money we need in order to make Global Academy Place come true. All resources are going to be used according to the breakdown below. The maximum price for which you can offer your tokens to the inner exchange is calculated in USD at the end of the crowdfund period and the buybacks are going to be executed in ETH.

8 There are 4 levels of investors: those, who buy tokens when the collected ETHs are less than 600: they receive a guaranteed return of the investment up to 400% those, who buy tokens when the collected ETHs are from 601 to 1100: they receive a guaranteed return of the investment up to 300% those, who buy tokens when the collected ETHs are from 1101 to 1600: they receive a guaranteed return of the investment up to 200% those, who buy tokens when the collected ETHs are more than 1600: they receive a guaranteed return of the investment up to 100% The buying process of GAP tokens You can buy GAP tokens by sending ETH to the address that is published on our website. It is important to notice the stage of the crowdfund period you take part in because the amount of GAP you are going to receive depends on the stages. In case we do not reach the target, we are going to return the funds to the investors Budgeting The following model is based on a scenario where the minimum goal is reached. This is how all funds from the target are going to be used. All funds between the target and the cap are intended for buybacks in order to optimize the process.

9 Lectures & Development = 38% In its core, Global Academy Place is an educational institution, so the courses are what makes our business model come true. The courses consist of lessons which are videos with educational content. The developers of these videos are our graduates, who have finished our live course. These are our best students and we believe they are the right people because they have walked the road of knowledge, know where they have had the most difficulties and now know how to make the courses even better. The admins, who are the most experienced in Global Academy Place, supervise the developers and evaluate their work. After the crowdfund period all developers are going to vote on how to be paid in USD or in ETH. Approximately the cost for one lection is from 1 to 1,5 ETH. If the developers choose USD for their payment, we will calculate their payment using the price of ETH after closing the crowdfund. This portion of the budget also includes the development of the Crypto Finance and the Crypto Programming courses, both of which will be developed by the admins. IT & security = 20% In order to make our courses more effective and interactive, we have decided to create our own educational platform that is specially modified for our courses. The platform allows the students to connect with each other, to upload their homework, to attend live webinars and many other options that make the educational process easier. The IT specialists also take care of the security not only of our educational platform but for all of the systems we are using. Marketing = 13% Global Academy Place needs a Global marketing campaign. The largest markets in the world Europe, USA, India, China, etc. are our targets and the competition with the local academies in every country will start with perfectly organized marketing campaigns. All funds in this section are intended for the sole purpose of popularizing Global Academy Place and generating more sales. Admins = 12% These are the people who are standing behind the whole project and hold responsibility for everything that is happening. They are managing each section of the project Lectures and development, IT and security, Marketing, Executing the buybacks, New partnerships and other activities. These percentages of the breakdown appear because the profit of the academy is intended for the buybacks and raising the price of the GAP tokens. Reserves = 10% By chasing maximum liquidity of the GAP tokens, we need additional funds except from the profit of our courses. The Reserves are actually the funds that are stored in the Academy Safe and used for buybacks. All funds above the target are going to be stored in the Academy Safe too in order to provide more liquidity.

10 Software = 4% Paid software is used for the live online events we make and for the videos which are the main educational content. Legal = 3 % Legal expenses include: the registration of the company, licenses and accounting costs. 3. Business model relationships 3.1. Why is the ICO the best way for this project? The opportunities that have been created by the Blockchain, the Ethereum virtual machine and smart contracts are something that is inspiring every entrepreneur. Tokens are like innovative shares that make the work of investors and entrepreneurs much easier and transparent. On one hand, the traditional fund of a project takes much more time and it s not as flexible as the ICO crowdfunding. On the other hand, crypto currencies have very high volatility and sometimes create difficulties for the crypto owners because of the lower value the crypto community can use in real life. We guarantee our investors' well placed trust, by supporting the potential of the crypto world with an ongoing business. That's the exact reason why we are raising our token's value, compared to the USD.. We are using Ethers only for the transactions and eventually for the payment of our teams, but what we are doing for our investors is eliminating the risk of the movement in the ETH price and guaranteeing them the raising of the price of GAP in USD How do we generate the value?

11 We generate revenue and human resources from the FOREX courses, sales and future cryptocurrency courses. All income we generate is recalculated in USD and when the expenses (sellers commissions, lector commissions- if the lessons are live, and others) are subtracted we put the profit in the Academy Safe. The approximate net profit from one student is between $500 to $600. The profit is going to be deposited in portions of $500 and every revenue from a course more than $500 is going to be stored for one of the next steps. Global Academy Place declares that the net profit is going to be used for raising the price of GAP tokens and providing liquidity. The process is fully transparent so all incomes and expenses are going to be published and available to be seen by the investors. Thus, the GAP owners have a clear view on what is happening at Global Academy Place Inner exchange Our inner exchange is the smart contract of the Academy Safe in the Blockchain of Ethereum. The price of GAP in ETH is updated every 24 hours and remains the same until the next update. All transactions are proceeded via ETH and that means you can see drop-downs of the price of GAP token in ETH but never in USD. We only use ETH for the transactions and the profit of our investors is going to be in the USD equivalent of the ETHs they are getting back. For updating the price of ETH/USD we are using the actual price of ETH from the Poloniex exchange. The Academy Safe is going to be public and every user is going to be known for the Safe s balance. The Academy Safe is funded first from the Reserves of the budget which is 10% of the whole funding and secondly from the profit generated by the sold courses. Creating the Inner exchange, based on the Ethereum Blockchain means a high level of security. All investors will subscribe and be informed about the price of GAP via an .

12 Inner Exchange Structure Smart Contract Investors Check Actual Price Sell GAP Tokens to The Smart Contract Receive Profit Buybacks After the crowdsale period Global Academy Place is going to publicly declare the amount of funds in USD that are going to be deposited in the Academy Safe. The buybacks are actually the sell function of the Academy Safe contract. Every investor is informed about the changes of the price of the token and the safe s balance personally via an and it is their own responsibility to decide when will they sell their token. The purpose of the buybacks is to collect all GAP tokens back and destroy them. The final result is funding Global Academy Place, developing new courses, having graduated students and profit for the investors. The increasing of the price is going to be executed as the table on our website describes.

13 3.3. Operational transparency and security We believe that our investors the GAP token owners, deserve to be aware of everything that is happening in Global Academy Place. They are going to have special access to the financial reports of the Academy and can see how every single USD or ETH is spent and earned. We also provide public dashboards but only the GAP token owners are going to have access to the full information. Using the Blockchain system allows us to keep the anonymity of our investors and to secure the transaction process. Every single person that is a part of the Global Academy Place s team is in the Team section and future members will be announced on our website. 4. Roadmap 1. The crowdfund period will last 31 days. 2. Announcing the crowdfund results and expectations for the return period: After finishing the crowdfund we are taking the current price of ETH and calculating the initial price of our token, how many courses we have to sell to execute the buybacks and the approximant period of time to do this. 3. Developing the educational platform and the video courses: We are developing our own educational platform intended especially for our courses in order to optimize the learning process. 4. Launching the educational platform: Making the platform available to all of our students.
