So, you're going to recruit girls, "try them out", take their pictures, get test STD results, provide physical security for them, verify the identities of their clients, collect payment, provide insurance, and publish an Android app to promote this? And you're going to do it all through Tor because, of course, you need to be anonymous? That is very convenient considering that you're doing a token sale!

I have to say, if I were totally anonymous and my ICO went well I'd probably renege on the whole thing. After all, why would I put myself in serious legal jeopardy by running a form of darknet market when I could just pocket the investors money secure in the knowledge that nobody will feel sorry for them?

Almost: At first the app will be a PWA so that users can use iOS. But yes, the provider side will eventually end up as Android-only app.

These are not really tokens, they are dividend-generating shares that will optionally be recorded via ERC20 tokens. We are using the term ICO only because saying IPO or Blockchain IPO tended to confuse people.

We want to raise secondary rounds to really expand, and screwing Series A investors sounds like the worst way to achieve that goal.
