We want to thank everyone thus far for their participation in voting and spreading the word about Jalapeno Inventive and our upcoming platform.

Since our announcement on Dec. 22 about the platform and our ICO, we’ve been re-engaging our respective investment communities and sharing the new platform concept. We’ve gained substantial traction with these investors and have begun receiving equity investment commitments which will allow us to build out the beta version of our platform without the pre-ICO.

Because we’ll be able to build the beta with equity investments we have decided to postpone the ICO until later this year. We estimate this will occur in Q3 of 2018, around August. This will ensure the platform is fully functioning and refined so that the token sale can yield the most value for our ICO contributors. The entirety of the JalaPESOS public ICO offering will fall under utility token status and relieve some of the regulatory requirements and costs associated with ICOs in the United States, which we would fall subject to due to our being located in Fort Collins, Colorado.

We will continue to offer free JalaPESOS tokens to those that engage with our voting platform, so keep voting (http://www.jalapen.io/vote) in each coin election and we will be releasing our new coin and game voting platform very soon! There will be additional incentives for those who had voted in anticipation of free JalaPESOS in May and all of these tokens will be distributed after the public ICO is completed and audited.

The whitepaper for the token will also be released at the same time the public ICO is officially announced.

We’re excited to be on this journey with all of our fans and supporters and look forward to releasing more details and creating more value for the entire crypto ecosystem.
