Dear Community,
Thanks to all for participating in our Jigstack AMA. We really appreciate all your support. There were really good and thoughtful questions that were asked. For those who missed our AMA, this AMA recap is for you.
Introduction!
Manpreet – Hello @RobyGu, CryptoNationIN welcomes you 🤗
Robert Weir – Hey @manpreetCN great to be here 🙂
Manpreet – We’re pleased to have you for the AMA today 😊
Robert Weir – Great! look forward to your questions
Manpreet – First, please introduce yourself to the community.
Robert Weir – Sure. I am Roby Weir the COO of Jigstack. My background over the last 10 years has been developing start-ups in the digital space from the ground up. These have either been companies I have owned or projects I have invested in or consulted for. The E-commerce space is where I have spent most of my time however, I have had a growing interest in blockchain over the last few years and was excited when this opportunity came to me.
Manpreet – That means we can call you the helping hand for startups. Am I right?
Robert Weir – Yea I love the start up space and the energy and speed. Never a boring day or moment let me tell you haha.
Manpreet – That’s nice. Now, please give a brief introduction about Jigstack to the community.
Robert Weir – Sure thing. Jigstack is the first decentralized Ethereum-based DAO (autonomous organization) with a conglomerate structure. Its purpose is to govern a range of high-quality, user-friendly and ultra secure DeFi products. We see ourselves as wanting to be the Microsoft of Defi which brings a standard of both user experience and security that is bespoke and trustworthy.
Manpreet – Jigstack will soon be the Microsoft of DeFi.
All the best from CryptoNationIN
Robert Weir – Gotta aim high 😉
Manpreet – Thanks for introducing yourself & Jigstack in such a nice way 👍
Twitter Questions
Q1. Jigstack aims to become a decentralized financial Microsoft by giving everyone equal access opportunities to DeFi. Does it have to be their technical expertise or experience with cryptocurrencies to contribute?
Robert Weir – Great question, and yes we have a solid team which brings experience from both the crypto market as well as more traditional digital markets such as, Fintech, Apps & E-commerce. Jigstack also only works with reputable third parties in assisting our team, and all our products will be heavily tested and audited before we introduce our products publicly.
Q2. Could you tell us about your partnership with Polygon? What will be the greatest benefits that this collaboration will bring to you? And what benefits will the users of your platform get from it?
Robert Weir – Polygon will be working with us to find a solution for our products in regards to the ever daunting gas prices currently facing projects built on ETH. We will be announcing all our developments with them publicly and keeping all our community members and token holders aware of the progress.
Q3. In the ecosystem of JigStack, the only source of governance is through the holders of the STAK token. Considering that, what are the features that can guarantee democracy and transparency in the decisions taken by holders?
Robert Weir – Stak holders will become key to all decisions in the near future on anything from product development, team members and even marketing plans. This is why a DAO governance model is so great. We will have more to announce soon about how this will plays out and when these voting rights will applied and how to use your votes to point Jigstack brand and products into a better decentralised future. Also we will be creating the right balance between time staked vs amount staked to ensure it is never taken over by a few larger holders.
Q4. What is specific about jigstack’s technology and products that you believe will succeed? How revenue does jigstack generate and what plans do you have to attract more users in the near future?
Robert Weir – We believe by bringing the standard and quality to a new level that sit underneath the Jigstack Brand. Revenue will be a 1% fee on any transaction made on any of our platforms, which 20% of the revenue will go to our buy and burn program. The remaining 80% will be distributed to our Token holders.
Q5. Can you tell us more about Jigstack lemonade stand concept and why you think solutions such as Lemonade will play an increasing role of importance in the space?
Robert Weir – Lemonade will be the cheapest and most decentralised launch pad to be put out in the market. We want to ensure our platform is very easy to use both as a company launching a project as well as the user wanting to purchase tokens. We also will be rolling out features such as whitelisting and timers/schedules to make sure all investors have options. Our recent purchase of ICO rating will fit into our plans to become the go to place to launch and purchase from new projects/companies.
Telegram Questions
Q1. Can you tell us some of the latest achievements made by the Your project & can you describe in details the current development efforts, such as market expansion plans, expected applications & new upcoming program of events?
Robert Weir – Surething. Well, we are weeks away from launching our MVP of our first product Lemonade (official date announced soon) which will also be the platform where we will be doing our public sale. This shows we really believe in our products by using the product to launch our own token for Jigstack. In terms of other milestones, the acquisition of ICO rating was a huge win for us and will make Lemonade an even more powerful tool to expose new exciting projects wanting to launch while still keep its solid review system to make sure people are well aware of the interest in the project from others. In the coming months, we have an additional 4 products to launch including our wallet and our staking platform Stakbank. Stay Tuned!

Q4. The hot new term in crypto is “YIELD FARMING”. Why did this get so hot right now? Do you have a plan to develop the Yield Farming system?
Robert Weir – Of course!!! We are looking at all things going on in the Crypto world and also the commercial world too. If we believe we can improve the current products out there we will develop. We won’t build just for the sake of it is “hot right now” needs to make sense long term.
