ONSTELLAR - Token Sale | The Esoteric SMT Project And Why You Should Be Interested
ONSTELLAR – Why You Should Participate
The marriage of blockchain and a subject-specific social media platform is a revolutionary idea! Steemit is building the platform for this with their Smart Media Tokens. ONSTELLAR is making use of this new opportunity for esoteric topics.
1. ONSTELLAR summarized
ONSTELLAR is a new blockchain-powered social media network built as the first platform designed exclusively for the enlightened community.
From the paranormal to the metaphysical, the unexplained lives here.
Powered by the blockchain, the ONSTELLAR ecosystem is tailored to introduce members to the exciting world of cryptocurrency, while at the same time providing opportunities to earn income, meet new people, engage with industry professionals and gain access to amazing products, services and events - all while enjoying a world-class user experience.
2. What problems are we solving?
The modern social platforms excel at attracting more users by offering ever-expanding services, which are free of charge. But there is a real cost to our participation and growing dependency upon these platforms:
- Our privacy is constantly being assaulted.
- Censorship is on the rise in dramatic fashion
- Major platforms have been caught in creepy social engineering experiments
- Billions of social media users generate substantial revenue for the industry, but don’t receive a fair share of the profits and value creation.
But that’s not all. Most platforms are very generically targeting the mainstream, which leaves many special interest groups out in the cold. ONSTELLAR wants to change that:
- Tribal behavior of mainstream social media users discourages free thought
- Fans of the paranormal, the unexplained, the metaphysical and conspiracy theories don’t have a place to connect, collaborate and earn together
- Web marketing and digital expertise is hard to master, creating a lack of opportunity for lay-people to break in
- Professionals seek to grow their audience but must expend significant resources to find new fans across the vast digital expanse
Our one-of-a-kind platform brings together the best of modern technology and subject-specific resources into one place to dramatically change the paradigm.
3. What is our solution?
ONSTELLAR is the next critical step in combining social media with cryptocurrency. Designed for a growing enlightened global community and focused exclusively on the extraordinary, profound and metaphysical, ONSTELLAR will be the first platform of its kind to focus on connecting like-minded individuals with a revolutionary and unique experience. By offering a transparent, open marketplace for its members, ONSTELLAR promises to be the heartbeat and nexus for expanding knowledge in our wondrous world.
The ONSTELLAR ecosystem is tailored to engage members in the exciting world of cryptocurrency, while at the same time providing opportunities to earn income, meet new people, engage with industry professionals and gain access to singular products, services and events. While enjoying a world-class user experience, our members will have access to the largest publicly-available digital archive of curiosity-quenching audio, video, publications, images, newspaper clippings and investigative documents.
What are the technology hurdles you must overcome to launch ONSTELLAR?
Very few actually. The ONSTELLAR technology is based on the well-established Steem blockchain. By operating our ecosystem from the Steem blockchain, we are able to safely implement our business model, including many of the features on the roadmap while also enjoying a robust, tested and proven infrastructure.
Additionally, we are User Interface / User Experience experts. This means we know how to integrate the best of existing social media platforms in a efficient and easy-to-use fashion in order to deliver our members with a world class experience.
How is the community receiving ONSTELLAR?
Everyone is very excited! Just look at our testimonials that come from many of the biggest names in the industry.
4. The ONSTELLAR Team
What makes you capable of executing on this opportunity?
Our team brings a set of skills to cover all aspects of the business. They have solid experience in business administration, finance, business development, social media, blockchain, cryptocurrency, marketing and promotion of unique projects. Our key contributors and advisors are the top names in the industry encompassing everything from the paranormal to the metaphysical.
How are you different than other social platforms in the market?
There is no other social platform targeting this market and certainly no collective of individuals that comes anywhere close to our team. This is truly a very unique opportunity.
5. The Market
As total worldwide social media users approach 3 billion, it’s safe to say that the social media industry is huge, and still growing. When people think of social media, Facebook immediately comes to mind. Indeed, the Nielsen Group says Internet users within the United States spend more time on Facebook than any other website. But there are many social media companies worldwide, focusing on content-sharing, interaction and collaboration across different communities of people or coworkers. The most popular include:
- Facebook - widely-used free social networking site that allows users to upload photos and video, send messages and keep in touch with friends, family and colleagues
- Twitter - free microblogging service where registered members share short posts called tweets; members can broadcast tweets and follow other users' tweets through multiple platforms and devices
- Instagram - free image-sharing application that encourages users to share pictures and videos with approved followers or the public
- LinkedIn - a social networking site designed for business and professional engagement, featuring coworker and employer peer reviews
- Steemit - a social news website and forum where stories are socially curated and promoted by site members, Steemit is revolutionary in its revenue-sharing approach
All of this online activity is memorialized, synthesized, analyzed and monetized along with billions of other people, real value creation is happening. Indeed, as of mid-2017, the top 6 social networks had a combined enterprise value totaling just under $600 Billion USD.

It’s safe to say that our target market is very large. They are also very dedicated.
ONSTELLAR is a new type of platform. One that not only provides a premium user interface and experience, but also offers an entirely new business model designed to completely align members’ interests with the platform itself. This is a completely new paradigm powered by the latest in blockchain technology.
6. Business model
How much will the tokens be worth?
ONSTELLAR cannot make claims about the future value of its tokens. A good approximate guide and possible market model for what we are doing is what is happening with the STEEM tokens. ONSTELLAR will deploy a similar structure intended to create a U.S. Dollar peg.
How are you going to make money?
Just like other major platforms that are today very popular and profitable, ONSTELLAR will take time to build and new revenue sources will develop. Today, the platform is set up to earn revenue in multiple ways with the ONST token as the fundamental unit of exchange. Asides from traditional sources, our planned road map of functionality release will provide several new revenue opportunities:
- Decentralized Exchange. Members are able to buy and sell, with order matching and completion performed automatically by the system.
- Payments Through Escrow. The ONSTELLAR intends to provide a way for users to send tokens to each other with a third party designated as an escrow service. The member acting as the escrow service is able to determine if the terms of the agreement have been met, and either allow the funds to be released to the receiver or returned to the sender.
- Discovery Mapping System. The ONSTELLAR Discovery Mapping System is a mobile app designed to reveal important sites near your physical location. In keeping with our commitment to privacy, ONSTELLAR will not share any member information without full permission to do so. Full details on the functionality, data requirements, and privacy will be provided at a later date.
- Professional Connectivity Center. The professional connectivity center intends to provide members with a portal to submit their original works to industry professionals for production.
- Stock Portal. We intend to design our Stock Portal is designed as a platform to connect members with visionary artists, graphic designers, photographers and videographers.
- Freelancing Portal. This digital portal, based on our smart contract escrow system will enable ONSTELLAR members to post and search employment opportunities.
- Portal for Sound and Music Creators. Visionary and gifted sound and music creators will be able to upload, promote, sell and license their originally-created content.
- Learning Center. ONSTELLAR intends to offer a variety of subject-specific educational material, developed by experts in their respective fields. We are thrilled to integrate this curriculum with some of the leading tools available on the market today.
- Academy and Events. The goal of the Academy will be to preserve the legacy of educational luminaries of the past and present, whose body of work made a significant contribution to alternative science, literature, arts, entertainment, education, enterprise, investigation and research. Events will connect members together in real-world settings for the richest experience possible.
How will we gather new members?
We have put together a world-class group of key influencers and opinion leaders in our community. This coupled with aggressive referral rewards and traditional marketing/advertising should contribute significant growth to our network. A viral effect will likely begin to occur with our membership at some point.
How scalable is your platform?
With the proven Steem blockchain as its foundation, ONSTELLAR is designed to be one of the fastest and most efficient social platforms in existence and is able to scale to support 10,000 or more transactions per second. Because the infrastructure is entirely through the generation of new tokens, there is no need to charge users a fee for powering the blockchain.
In order to place reasonable limits on the system use, each user is given a limited bandwidth based on their token balance. Large and active users carry more token balance and therefore can do more. Users can always increase their bandwidth allowance by getting additional ONSTELLAR tokens. Bandwidth limits adjust based on network use, so users have a higher bandwidth allowance when the network usage is low.
Whenever users perform blockchain operations such as token transfers, posting content, and voting, it uses up a portion of their bandwidth. If a user exceeds their bandwidth allowance, they must wait to perform additional actions until their bandwidth recharges.
7. Financials
Token Offering
The maximum number of tokens issued will be 67,500,000 as follows:
- 74.1% will be sold during the crowdsale
- 11.1% will be distributed to founders
- 7.41% will be sold during the pre-sale
- 5.2% will be awarded as bounties
- 2.2% will be awarded to developers
Funds allocation
The allocation of funds received will be as follows:
- 65% is allocated to platform development
- 15% to operations and administration
- 15% to marketing and business development
- 5% to legal and accounting
Roadmap
The roadmap sets out the development that will be possible if targets are achieved, starting from $5 million and projected to $10 million.
Ensuring token liquidity
ONSTELLAR will have its own built in market that allows you to buy and sell ONST. The internal market has many benefits when it comes to trading. Among these benefits:
- No Fees - Our blockchain doesn’t charge trading fees, but it will rate limit your account if you start consuming too much bandwidth. If you hit the bandwidth wall, you can always Power Up to get more access.
- Highest Security - The internal exchange is secured by your account private key. This means you do not need to trust any third parties with your money.
- Lowest Spread – ONSTELLAR intends to subsidize the internal market with liquidity rewards that create market competition to give you the best price possible. The spread can be lower because some of the risk is absorbed by the network.
- Highest Liquidity - This is another side effect of liquidity rewards. Traders make more by trading on the internal exchange and therefore there is the greatest market depth.
8. Participation required
BTC and ETH will be accepted. The minimum purchase is 0.1 ETH.
CONCLUSION
ONSTELLAR should attract a large number of enthusiasts to its community as well as its token sale, setting up the platform for the future. We invite you to join us in our quest!
Stay tuned!

Interesting. But why you got downvotes mainly from @transisto. Well I have always seen him leaving comments on posts when he flag the post but I can't see any on this particular post. Why? Is there something behind that we shouldn't know about?
It looks like Steem but as a misinformation platform. No airdrop of any kind means only the founder and the few people buying in will be able to promote their "unexplained" ideologies.
It's trying to turn the unknown into entertainment instead of being something that requires thorough research.
Issuing a large portion of the distribution of an SMT while the SMT are far from being ready is voluntarily increasing the risks to investors. (this is my main reason for flagging)
Thanks for this information. I haven't understood many things about SMT yet but I have read many whales saying steem will rise to moon after the lunch of SMT since steem works as bandwidth for applications based on smt, now you told the opposite part, I just want to know how if you have some time to write.thanks
From what I learned from one of my Appics post is that some whales are afraid that SMT's will be competitors to Steem and hence be bad for their investment. So they try to censor these posts or at least demonetize them.
I don't understand how smts a competitor to steem, I read it everywhere steem is fuel for SMT based apps.And they are the one telling us steem would be more valuable after the launch of SMTs
Come on man you know that's bogus.
First, SMTs need to exist... period!
Second, Appics is far from existing as the competitor to anything.
Thirdly, Anyone with a clue would know that it's nonsensical that an entity existing
ON the platfrom of another entity has a chance to dethrone the parent entity.
Name me one scenario where this has happened?
You are SPREADING FALSEHOODS.
Shame. Shame from someone with a prominent role here.
I don't know why you get all personal here and trying to defame me. I have proof for my assumption that some whales have a negative feeling about SMT's: https://steemit.com/appics/@flauwy/appics-smt-two-more-weeks-to-the-first-steem-based-ico#@transisto/re-flauwy-re-aka8888-re-flauwy-appics-smt-two-more-weeks-to-the-first-steem-based-ico-20180313t000819500z
Sure, it is probably a form of interpretation what exactly was the motivation behind that comment. And when I posted quotes from the SMT whitepaper to underline my point there was no further reply. So, what I said in the comment above is NOT my personal opinion at all but merely the conclusion of observing reactions. I think SMT's will be beneficial for Steem which is why I write about them in the first place.
So it would be nice if you start coming back to the heartspace and don't get all patronizing on me.
Lot's of Love to you.
Well I wasn't referring to a specific event.
That conversation you had with ONE so called whale is not a measure of the overall view.
You've also told others on another comment that the APPICS token will be traded on exchanges... where do you get that from? I DO NOT believe it will be as there is nothing on their literature or coming directly from them indicating that this token will be traded on an exchange. If it will be then it is a VERY distant probability and one that I doubt anyone in the team has even pondered on with serious thought.
I am also NOT attacking you. Or directing this criticism at you personally. Although it seems it.
You are a prominent figure here, so I just think that some of them things coming from a figure such as yourself can make others act carelessly. SO many bottom dwellers on steemit hoping to invest in their first project: APPICS. They need to be looked after also.
That is why transisto has acted in the way he has. He is looking out for those here. Specially with the esoteric ICO. While I see your link to it, and respect that you are spiritual. You can't be so careless as to recommend it so positively without addressing the real issues. One, that it's got no guarantee of succeeding so people DO have a real chance to lose their investment.
And when are them damn SMTs out too?
I noticed you said "this year (hopefully)" on a previous post and this is worrysome.
You to be a not as optimistic and hint that they might NOT be out this year makes me think that struggle street is just around the corner around here. At least for projects which depend on their existence.
TELL FCKEN STEEMIT INC TO GET THE FCK MOVING ALREADY!
Communities at least you motherfuckers...
WHERE THE FCK ARE COMMUNITIES??
and yes profanity was necessary.
That was the best comment I have gotten on this post. I love your honesty about that and I agree that Steemit is really making this hard for us users and for the projects trying to build on the SMT idea. We are in a moment of uncertainty in and that is not good for Steem nor for SMTs.
And YES, communites and hard fork 20 are LONG overdue and they should finally deliver on that so that we all can finally overcome this cluster of unconnected content we find on Steemit.
I would love to get to know you a little bit better. Maybe we can chat on Discord soon.
Yeah I might criticize steemit a little too honestly in the eyes of some but I am equally as passionate about the success of the platform as any die hard is. I see it as a child who is going through a little rough patch and letting you down a little, but you know they are good, you know they have real potential.. and you are still optimistic... that this will eventuate in the near future.
So yeah, communities is probably the most anticipated addition to this platform. Even above SMTs, as... I've come to realize, that more exist here that have no clue what they will mean and be than there are those who get them and realize their importance for the platform.
It's what made reddit succesful as you can always find a niche where you belong.
Or create one if one doesn't exist. Steemit is in desperate need of this function.
What discord do you frequent? I'll pop in for a chat!
I'm not active much on there. I am on telegram mostly.
I am also on Telegram under flauwy.
You're a good guy btw!
I AM interested in the OnStellar project,
So we will have more profound conversation in a future.
Like on our platform, content and creators will be at the mercy of the audience and the market. We will not censor. If people feel they need to downvote, that is their right. Unfortunately, I wish I knew why he'd downvote us. I think we're more on the same mission than we are not. But like I said, everyone has a right to express themselves how they see fit.
I truly understand that but you know I am right to be curious since it found it unusual.
Good luck for the project anyway.!
You got downvoted because you are really pushing for that money primarily.
Your pricing is ridiculously high for something which does not exist yet.
An SMT project.
You are making sure YOU are rewarded before the whole thing even has place in reality.
You know though... you are not stupid.
For the record, I love the project. Will definitely be on board once it's got legs.
It's shooting to be a garden of Eden in environment reminiscent of a swamp land.
You will not land a dragonfly here.. just pockets of mosquitoes and the odd fat frog.
(Not sure what that last statement means but I like it.. it stays!)
Very nice in depth review.. Thanks for sharing.
Of course! We'll be posting more content as we progress. Make sure to keep an eye out ;)
What a fantastic project! I have a spiritual steemit group already as well as a manifestation group, and will share the information with them. I'm guessing this is related to the esoteric SMT project Flauwy is a part of. Nice to see it advancing toward the ICO and not waiting on the completion of SMT technical development.
No, this is unrelated to my own project but since this is so good and progressed I have decided to support them instead of pushing mine forward. Just pure synchronicity. :)
what a coincidence :D
How amazing. That's what I thought when I found yours! Yes, there are beautiful synchronicities at work.
Ha! Here we go - same thoughts here! Sounds awesome! 🙏
Great to run into you here. Great minds gathering perhaps? 😃
Indeed! The project is destined to be a success with us 2 on board! 😀
#aaa content ! @blockchainbeta says light the way!
Wonderful @onstellar ...Where have you been my whole Steemit life...??? I'll be meditating upon the outcome. Regards @averageoutsider Have a peaceful day.
This means so much! We need all of the good vibes and energy supporting us - Think Goku Spirit Bomb. lol
nice project indeed.
Thanks so much. I'm glad you like it! I hope you'll join us @onstellar =]
instead of using Cryptocurrency as standart minimum contribution isn't it better to use USD, since Crypto price always fluctuate and i'm sure investor will like more if contribution was based on USD price.
Interestingly enough we've got those bases covered. Learn more by checking out our site or checking out our whitepaper
Great article. I am totally interested in this project! I will inquire about having my services on the platform as well after it's development.
After reading about OnStellar's project and their collaboration with Steemit, I'm looking forward to more great concepts built with the Steemit platform.
We are uber excited about this too, especially when we can provide a home for your services to the world!
Great project. Finally an unlimited platform to share views and experience. I am genuinely interested in this project. Can I get your link for telegram ? I want to get updates
