In 2017, you and I along with thousands of other believers achieved something incredible together. We raised 17.5 million dollars in our ICO for an important vision – democratizing finance.
Since then, the Change team has been working day and night to build a world-class team and ship products that have an impact on the world. In 2018, we launched Europe’s first commission-free crypto investment app. Now we started shipping one of the first crypto-friendly cards in Europe. As of April 2019, the Change app has been installed more than 25,000 times and an additional 20,000 people have registered themselves on the card waiting list.
Now, it is time for another first. We will be the first utility token company to issue its own equity-like token.
Token of Appreciation to our Community
After seven months of communication with the regulator, active community members and our legal councils, we are ready to take the next step to show our gratitude and commitment to the Community.
Starting from the 16th of September, 2019, exactly 2 years since the start of our ICO, you can swap the current CAG token to Change equity-like CNG token to become a future shareholder of Change.
The equity-like CNG token is the first step to make you a legal shareholder and it gives you similar benefits until security tokens will be issued. CNG is an ERC-20 token representing a tokenized loan contract that pays interest tied to the financial success of Change.As a CNG tokenholder you will:1) Profit from the success – receive interest payments based on Change’s profitability;2) Become a shareholder – have a right to get Change equity in the form of security tokens;3) Get clear legal certainty – the tokenized loan contract defines your exact rights and benefits.
The proposed token will represent your right for financial benefits and thereby any upside-sharing characteristics of CAG token as described in Change whitepaper 1.0 will be revoked in case 51% of community votes for the swap. CAG will retain its main utility of being a prepayment for Change services.
For the first 3 months, you can exchange CAG to CNG on a 1:1 ratio. The amount of CNG tokens equals to the number of company shares. For example holding 1% of CNG tokens gives you 1% of the shares of Change in the future.

Conclusion
We believe that to make our vision a reality, the team and community must be equally motivated and making you shareholders aligns our goals for the long run. We will notify you when the token swap opens and you can convert your CAG in the Change app. Our team is looking forward to have you with us in building the first crypto-unicorn born on the Internet. In regard to any questions, we will publish a Q&A section which will be continuously updated.
Sincerely,Kristjan KangroCEO of Change
