We're very happy to announce that our token presale is now live! During the Pre-ICO we'll be selling Saturn Tokens (STN), that will later be used to access premium content from www.rados.io, for 5 LTC = 1 STN. During the ICO, which will run September-November this year, the price will gradually increase from 1.1 ETH = 1 STN to 1.9 ETH = 1 STN. More details are available here.

We're raising money to cover the infrastructure costs of running a real time data analytics pipeline (which, if not carefully architected, may end up costing you a fortune) and giving our first followers and early adopters a chance to join early and enjoy the Pre-ICO discount. In this post I'm going to walk you through the process of purchasing Saturn (STN) tokens.

Step 4. Accept Saturn Token Sale agreement

In light of the latest regulations in cryptocurrency space you also need to read and accept Saturn Token Sale Agreement. This agreement governs the rules of the Pre-ICO and the ICO, describes overall token distribution and schedule among other things. By clicking "Next" on this page you accept Saturn Token Sale Agreement and are ready to move on to the next step.

Step 5. Enter your ETH wallet address

Saturn Tokens will be implemented according to ERC20 standard, because it's the most comfortable platform both for us to implement the smart contract and for our users to store their tokens in their wallets, trade on exchanges, and interact with rados.io website. ERC20 tokens will be distributed to Ethereum addresses of our investors at the time of contract creation. This is why we are asking for your Ethereum wallet address before we show you the Saturn Token purchase screen.

NOTE! Due to security reasons you will not be able to change this address later. If you enter a wrong address we will still have to assign STN tokens to it and you will not be able to claim your coins. If you do not have an ethereum wallet yet, you can register one here or you can download a desktop Ethereum wallet such as Mist or Parity.

Step 6. Purchase Saturn

Now you are finally ready to purchase Saturn Tokens! On this screen, you'll see your unique personal litecoin payment address. You can either send LTC to this address directly from your wallet or an exchange such as coinbase. Alternatively, if you have already invested in cryptocurrencies but do not hold and LTC, you can pay via our partners at changelly. Changelly supports a number of currencies, including Bitcoin, Ethereum, STEEM, NEM, Monero and EOS Token.

Once your transaction gets confirmed by the Litecoin network (about 3 minutes for direct LTC transfer from your wallet, and a couple of hours when you send from an exchange or through Changelly) your Saturn balance will be updated. You can access your balance at any time here.
