Hi Michael, Depending of the products, it will take from 30 seconds to 3 min.

Will there be any distributions or dividends for investing?

Hi, yes very good question. We plan to have distribution of dividends. The intent is, when the company is profitable, to allocate 50% of the net profit, and to redistribute to shareholders. This is pretty unique in the tech start-up world. And it will allow shareholders to start generating income without having to wait years for an exit. This can be significant with double digits % of return per year.
