Q1. Nowadays people are more careful about data security, especially when it comes to messaging platforms. How does iMe smart store and collect user data? is user data safe from misuse of third parties?
Security is on the list of the top targets for iMe. we don’t have access to any users’ data including names, phone numbers, conversations, and do not store and transmit it anywhere. All this data is proceeded through Telegram servers. As for the iMe wallet, only the device has access to keys and funds, so users can control this data by themselves. The wallet enables a PIN code for password encryption. No servers are involved.
We do not interfere in Telegram’s security or confidentiality, and do not find it rational to even try. Any our tampering with the Telegram’s security would rather bring more vulnerabilities than make it better. Telegram is one of the most secure messaging platforms in the world and there’s no point in applying any additional measures, moreover it’s hardly possible because we don’t have access to Telegram’s servers. Telegram’s security is really strong and on a very high level, if a user doesn’t give their device or account keys to anyone else, if the phone number is real, it’s almost impossible to steal or hack their account, which has two-factor authentication.
By the way, Telegram is most secured messenger in the world. And iMe platform use API and servers of telegram.
Q2. I understand that iME is being powered by Telegram, but will it really use the same security system? or because multiple duplication and theft of accounts have been reported in telegram, will you take other measures?
I've already answered that we have same high security standard as Telegram.
As for the iMe Cryptowallet’s safety - yes, iMe provides all the measures to keep your funds and data safe, the wallet has double encryption and all the keys are stored on your device only. Besides the 24-words phrase, iMe Wallet also has a password and PIN-code. The safety rate here is the same as in METAMASK or MyEtherWallet - if you keep your 24-words phrase thoroughly, the wallet will be impossible to compromise.
Q3. Could you tell us a little about your LIME tokens? really what is its distribution, where is it listed and really what will its profits be in the iME messaging and crypto payment platform?
Regarding LIME token, it’s not issued yet, but the listing is coming soon. Lime is an ERC-20 token that may be used as payment for some advanced features in iMe. You can purchase other coins for Lime, get access to more extended functionality and a wide range of partners’ products that will be integrated into the app. You can purchase other coins for Lime, get our partners' tokens reward for having a certain amount of Lime in your account, vote and take an active part in the decision-making process regarding the ecosystem growth. Soon after listing, we’ll introduce a Tier system, where owners of higher Tiers will have more opportunities and rights in voting on suggested functions of the application. Keep an eye on Lime token as there are gonna be more utilities with time.
In total, 1 billion Lime Tokens will be issued at the TGE. The token circulation during listing will be only 6.80%.
Listing dates are to be announced soon. The official number of the smart contract and the valid link to a trading pair will appear only in the official iMe announcement channel https://t.me/ime_en Beware of scammers sending you fake links. iMe team won’t DM you first!
Take a closer look at iMe ecosystem and Lime token, let’s travel to a crypto world together!

Q4. Understanding that IME wants to revolutionise the world of messaging applications through the use of crypto payments, but, in addition to them, it will be able to implement even more tools and much more advanced market behaviour bots?
Good question, thank you, but as for AI-powered neurobots, we'll shed the light on them later, as we await their upgraded version to come out. So speaking about all their features and capabilities appears a little too soon for now. But definitely, you will like this!
iMe's AI-neurobots have much more wider spectre of functions than simple marketing and trading bots.

Q5. Could you tell me about more fees within iME? When making a purchase, sending or receiving crypto assets, do users have to cover a fee? Or in addition to this they would have to cover the Ethereum gas fee?
iMe charges NO fees for operations with crypto, you have to cover only the fees of UNISWAP integrated platform/ DEX, so if you use Uniswap you only have to pay Uniswap's fee with no extras. In ETH transactions, you pay only Ethereum fees.
Q6. I know that initially you will use Uniswap to be able to buy LIME, but are you really only planning to implement it in that swap? Or will they also list it on CEX?
$LIME tokens will be initially listed on Uniswap, and also will be released on a tier 1 centralized exchange. The details will be announced in due course. and of course. more DEXes are coming soon.
Q7. I heard that iMe has partnered with Simplex, so what will be the results of this partnership? what benefits will we get? and in the long term what are your plans to work on? what is the target you want to achieve?
iMe has gone through a serious audit to partner with Simplex to provide our users the opportunity to buy crypto with a card. You’ll be also able to buy $LIME with this service. The final goal - is the max convenience for our users to manage crypto.
so, our goal with Simplex corresponds to its name - to make it really simple for most of iMe users, many of them are not crypto-addicted and want to have an easy start.

Q8. I noticed that some features is not available for IOS user and for Android user it's already available. Could you tell us why is the difference and in future what other platforms are you planning to integrate with?
Android development really moves a bit faster because initially, we had a bit smaller devs team for iOs. But we plan to make these teams equal. And besides, you may know iOs interface is harder to deal with. For the latest updates, Android users already have Uniswap in their Wallets, whilst the release for iOs is coming soon.
Q9. According to your roadmap for March 2021 they had been working on adding USDT, but does this only include ERC20? Or do you also have USDT TRC20 available?
TRC20 are not implemented. We’ll have more integrations after we complete the current goals of the project. Here is our roadmap:
Q10. Could you give information about your team structure? Are you a crowded team, do you have members with different experiences?
We have a highly professional team of developers behind the project with experience starting from 10 years. Team leads have over 15 years of experience in development and were engaged in several successful crypto projects. Besides, working with the telegram code already means obtaining the highest skills: not every developer is capable of handling this code due to its complexity – it has no analogues and there’re no handbooks on how to develop it. Our team leads are now writing handbooks on how to manage the telegram code!
There are 30 people working on the project, 19 of them are involved in development.
Q11. Polkadot is expending rapidly and BSC is trending. Do you have any plan to incorporate with these chain?
Yep, we have such plans for Polkadot and BSC integration
Q12. I think the telegram crypto community would be happy to migrate to a decentralized app. I don't know if it's possible, but would there be a possibility to migrate a Telegram group to iMe Smart Platform?
Using iMe you have the same chats, groups, friends as in telegram messenger, but with enriched functionality, AI-neurobots and cryptowallet. So,yes can easily switch to iMe and keep all the history of your social activity, as it's stored on distributed servers of telegram.
Q13. Can you list 1-3 killer features of Your Project that makes it ahead of its competitors? What is the competitive advantage your platform has that you feel most confident about?
Integrated cryptowallet
Integrated DEX
AI-neurobots
Q14. What major partnership have you achieved and do you have any upcoming new project partners to be announced?
Q15. What's your ongoing program that's you need follow your community and you want to enough member?

Q16. As a community led project, do you plan to give all power to the community? And considering the funny nature of human, do you think that will be appropriate?
LIME token is a utility token of the iMe Smart Platform. This is an Ethereum token. The Lime usability will be wide enough and extend over time. It will include:
1. The voting system. Lime token holders from around the world will have a say in the development of the ecosystem and can suggest or influence the decision-making process depending on their stake.
2. A Tier system, TBA.
3. TBA functions
4. Yield farming. Lime token holders will be able to earn tokens of our partners through smart contracts.
5. Some new features in the iMe app will be available only to users with LIME tokens in the account. All these aspects will be announced later.
The more partners iMe has, the more privileges Lime token holders will get.
Q17. COVID 19 has slowed many economies around the world but as a crypto business has it affected you negatively or positively? Secondly, are you still on track to achieve your targets as the road map says?
There were no problems with working during the pandemic as all our team works remotely. All milestones were achieved on time according to the planned graphic and now we also stick to our roadmap to implement even new opportunities for our users before times
Q18. I understand that they will use the Erc777 token, which represents an improvement of the Erc20, but among those improvements is not the reduction of gas rates? And if it is not yet, will it be possible to apply it without the need for layer2?
We decided to take as a standard for our tokens ERC-20 instead of ERC-777
Q19. I joined the iME telegram group and all the messages were in Russian are you planning to create English or Spanish speaking telegram groups in order to expand the community?
