Hello LOOMIA Family!
Welcome to the ANNOUNCEMENTS CHANNEL!
Private Pre-Sale Processing
LOOMIA continues our KYC/AML process, and we expect our private pre-sale to be closed within the next few weeks. For strategic reasons, we are moving away from MicroVentures, and are appreciative of their support. We have since retained another firm to assist with processing. We will endeavor to process and honor submissions through Microventures in the order in which they were registered. We will disclose the amount received at the conclusion of the private pre-sale.
KYC Whitelist Processing
We will be working with another group to launch our TGE and KYC our Whitelist registrants. Instructions for Whitelist registrants forthcoming and the platform to be announced in the next few weeks.
We are first confirming receipt of a Whitelist request. Many of you have received this email, and the rest of you will as well! We will begin KYCing Whitelist registrants after our private pre-sale is officially closed.
Updated Roadmap
Please visit our website: www.loomia.com/token for detailed hardware and software roadmap as it relates to our TGE. As you know, we will be launching our TGE when we have an alpha of both the TILE Software and Hardware. We’ve been hard at work with several dev groups, our partners and engineering firms, and are excited to share our updated progress map. We will update in the Telegram and on our website at key milestones. The roadmap gives a directional as to our anticipated TGE.

STAYING THE COURSE IN DYNAMIC TIMES February 12, 2018
Revolutionary technologies always inspire confusion, uncertainty, and doubt. Horse and buggy manufacturers scorned the recklessness of automobiles, and their general lack of necessity. A primal reaction to the unknown, in many ways is avoidance.
LOOMIA is no stranger to confusion, uncertainty, and doubt. Over the last three and half years, we’ve fought to create technologies that bring comfort, safety and confidence to the human experience. We’ve bootstrapped our business against all odds and are excited to be in the place where several of our core technologies are coming to market.
Last December, we jointly announced an exciting exploration and development of our TILE application with legacy brand L.L. Bean. Through joint press efforts that were signed off by both companies, we shared with you and our community the work we’d be doing together as LOOMIA builds out the TILE Platform.
We were preparing for a kick-off this week. Since December, the stream of positive coverage kept coming, and both firms were excited about the work. Last Friday, an article was published on the project, quoting an L.L. Bean employee, that contained several technical and factual inaccuracies. We had reached out to the publication and offered to participate in the story, which they declined. This inaccurate article was then picked up by several rapid media outlets, that added even more false information about the TILE.
Words like “tracking” (which often means to follow and stalk) and “geo-location” and “customers may not be able to opt out” make for great clickbait results, but are categorically and technically untrue. Uneven journalism with poor fact-checking leads to manufacture controversy- the only result of a click-driven media cycle. What was to be an exciting collaboration around user-centered data control, agency, and incentivization became a cautionary tale of corporate overreach. This stands against everything LOOMIA and TILE are about.
Last Saturday night, an article came out with senior level leadership at LL Bean rejecting the previous articles in their entirety, and stating our slated work together would not be moving forward. While we would have preferred to learn of their reversal directly, we completely can understand and respect choices made under intense media scrutiny.
LOOMIA TILE is just one of the many things our LOOMIA Electronic Layer (LEL) can do. Through our textile circuitry, LOOMIA can bring features like dynamic heating, illumination, sensing and responsive data to consumers. We are excited to continue developing TILE alongside our other functionalities with enterprising brand partners who see beyond the horizon of doubt. We are excited to share more of that with you in the coming weeks.
Our mission has always been the same, to bring meaning and value to the materials that make up our world. We remain forever committed to transparency, quality, and integrity.
The future stands firm, and we are charging towards it.

As we speak, I am en route to the manufacturing facility of a brand partner we are signed with that is bringing another LOOMIA functionality to market. Can't wait to share that partnership, as well as another one in blockchain with you in the coming days and weeks. Full calendar of brand meetings eager to learn about TILE. Excited to power forward!
Later today, we'll be sharing some progress images and wireframes!

LOOMIA Integrates The Bancor Protocol
LOOMIA Tile Expands Access to Blockchain Data Marketplace with New Integration
NEW YORK, March 2nd, 2018- LOOMIA, a technology company adding intelligence to everyday objects, today announced the adoption of Bancor, a protocol that facilitates autonomous token conversions without having to match buyers and sellers. The integration will introduce a new level of interoperability to TILE Tokens for users engaging with the TILE platform. Tel Aviv-based Bancor has seen conversion volume grow to over $37 million per week as more companies activate native ERC-20 tokens on the Bancor Network.
Janett Liriano CEO of LOOMIA said, “We are thrilled to announced the TILE token will join a growing network of Bancor member tokens. Much of what the LOOMIA team has been working on for the past three years is to bring new functionality to everyday objects that gives users more control. Bancor is another important step in this mission. We are eager to see what the future holds for the users of the LOOMIA Tile network and are proud to adopt the Bancor Protocol at this stage.”
This integration will introduce LOOMIA consumers to the practicality and security of smart contracts and token utility. The decentralized Bancor platform enables continuous on-chain liquidity without matching buyers and sellers. The Tile token brings enhanced functionality to everyday objects by interacting with data from consumer habits, such as frequency of wear, level of activity, and temperature. Tile transforms consumer goods into permission-based, data-collecting tools where customers have complete control over the flow of information.
LOOMIA-enabled objects gather data from the LOOMIA Electronic layer (LEL), a flexible circuitry embedded in the materials, and stored on a hardware component called the LOOMIA Tile. The data can then be transferred to personal devices and uploaded to the blockchain-based Tile Marketplace to be sold to brands, market research firms, and other companies. Once the consumer has expressly permissioned the data, consumers can exchange the Tile token for other ERC-20 tokens integrated with the Bancor protocol. Technical details of how the Bancor protocol facilitates the conversion of integrated tokens can be found in the Bancor Protocol white paper.

About LOOMIA:
LOOMIA is a technology company focused on engineering innovative technology that delivers comfort, safety, and confidence to the human experience by adding intelligence to everyday objects. In a world in which personal data has become a precious commodity sold behind closed doors by large corporations, the LOOMIA Tile gives individuals the right to own their own data, along with the freedom to choose how to share or sell it. In addition, the LOOMIA Tile's unique ability to associate an individual's physical identity, contained in their biometrics and habits to their digital identity, contained in their online profiles and activities, presents an interesting starting point for a wide range of third-party integrations, which could use LOOMIA technology to verify identity and facilitate secure payments passively and seamlessly, with no manual interaction and interface.

About Bancor
Bancor Protocol is a standard for the creation of Smart Tokens™, cryptocurrencies with built-in convertibility directly through their smart contracts. Bancor utilizes an innovative token “connector” method to enable formulaic price calculation and continuous liquidity for all integrated tokens, without needing to match two parties in an exchange. Smart Tokens interconnect to form token liquidity networks, allowing user-generated cryptocurrencies to thrive.
