# Well it isn't going to be 7 Million unless everyone misses the early bird participation discounts.
Realistically I think we could have 1 Million Steemish purchased at 0.250 USD and raise 250,000 USD I think we could possibly do this again in round two at 0.500 USD as there will be others who want in and people feel less at risk. So another 500,000 USD possibly raised. With things looking much better the "I don't want to miss out crowd" might come and show up for another million Steemish transfered for a total of 1.5 Million USD raised. 

After the final days before we launch on exchanges we will list the remainder at $1 USD and there is potential that more are sold at this point because people are just finding out and our original list price they feel is still a great bargain. This could be the last wave yet potentially from the marketing we could see another million raised.

Steemish was never launched to take over the world. It was launched as a way to tokenize our existing EPOS rewards system and also create a way to show who has helped grow the platform and if they have Steemish they have proof. Steemish was built on the Ethereum block chain as an ERC-20 Token and requires a compatible wallet. 

Steemish can be used to help the price of Steem but more importantly **Help Minnows Grow** That Use The https://SteemThat.com system. ***Don't we all want to see minnows grow and the price of steem stay up?*** I know I do. That is why 5 months ago I started the SteemThat.com movement and have been working hard ever since to help minnows grow.

#### The steemish white paper spells it out in plain English. https://steemthat.com/steem-that-white-paper-and-road-map/. 

# We are committed to Investing 50% of all participation into Steem. 
The remainder will go to marketing, development, community rewards, founders tokens, etc which is all defined in the white paper. **When we are successful I will gladly be the lowest paid operator of a successful ICO with at minimum of a 4 year commitment to the community and development**. What we can accomplish is monumental.

We have some things that Steemit doesn't have but I feel we compliment each other until they can develop more. I'm the founder and pioneer of a 2nd tier support system which might be needed to help bridge the barrier of entry as Steemit continues to grow. SteemThat.com might also help bridge the barrier to entry for other platforms in the future as well such as Dtube or Dsounds or other portals. 

**Why did we decided to go this route?** @jerrybanfield had not got budget proposals concept accepted at the time. Smart Media Tokens was long ago talked about but nothing seemed to materialize. I have seen zero posts about it and received no emails. There are high quality writers and members that if they earned something would continue to grow and perform well on Steemit and build a solid foundation for the future of the platform. I know steem is alot bigger than just blogging now but I'm desperate to hold onto something so unique and creative. It will be lost and forgotten about if not properly cultivated as spammers and plagiarizers fill the voids of the forgotten high quality content creating minnows. 

We still have many things we want to develop such as more ability to interact with the blockchain from SteemThat.com. We will need to buy a server and set-up a full node or lease one. There are plenty of people in the community willing to help do things and some are working for Steemish now. Will you be another member of the Steemish Teamish? 

## This seems risky!
All crypto currency is risky, have no doubt about that. One thing we have is an exit plan. What if legal happenings change the way we operate or cause us to become financially unstable. We don't control the Government... I would almost bet money we are the only Token with an exit plan. Not because we think we will fail but because we want to protect members as much as possible. 

Since the Auto Curation Specialist will not have much leased Steem Power the curation rewards will go to them. This should cause them to grow at a steady rate. Our plan in the event something crazy happens would be to power down and reward members proportionally based on their Steemish tokens. In the event Steem collapses we all take a size-able hit and that is why over time we also must use the funds to develop out our own existing EPOS system or support an equally powerful rewards based system not on the steem blockchain.
