Cryptocurrency and other applications of blockchain/DLT must overcome the hurdles of awareness, skepticism, ease of use and network effects. Initially, Bitcoin and blockchain/DLT were popular among only a small group of enthusiasts in the technology community. Bitcoin was labeled “nerd money.” But, for the idea to legitimately flourish, it needed to attract a significant number of users. Over time, an increasing number of people became intrigued by the concept of a decentralized, digital currency. However, society has not yet reached the tipping point where enough people around the world have become intimately involved in cryptocurrency that the utility of the technology can be truly realized. We are solving the following critical issues that currently exist in the space.
The current lack of access to reliable cryptocurrency education significantly limits the cryptocurrency markets from reaching their full potential. Cryptocurrency will become the norm for this generation and generations to come if investors, traders, and people actually utilizing the coins become more informed.
There is a pervasive sense of fear in the cryptocurrency world about keeping coins safe from the threat of third-party interference. CryptoZink will store most coins in cold storage as opposed to hot wallets. CryptoZink also offers the option of integrated Secure Authorized Storage, in the form of a plugin.
Many exchanges do not have a web application to allow users to access accounts on a mobile device. Moreover, cross-browser compatibility is a frustrating obstacle that no other exchange has yet solved.
When an issue occurs with current exchanges today, the process to resolve the challenge is often long and arduous, if the matter is even addressed at all. It can take as long as three weeks to get a response from existing exchanges. Upon launch, CryptoZink will provide instant email/chat support. After launch, we will phase in dedicated 24-hour, U.S. based telephone support ready to assist with the needs of all users.
Point of sale should be simple and low cost, and CryptoZink is excited to participate in developing this capability. Such an innovation will be part of the critical path to mass adoption. We will allow merchants to take top cryptocurrency payments (e.g., Bitcoin, Litecoin, and Ethereum) using APIs, which exists only on Coinbase to date.
Most exchanges charge users outrageous fees. With respect to trading fees, many exchanges charge either fixed or maker-taker trading fees anywhere between 0.1% – 0.3%. We guarantee our fees will be lower than every other top-tier exchanges in the world. Fees are even lower and almost non-existent for those who use our tokens (ZINK Tokens) as means to pay for fees.
The dynamic token economics of the CryptoZink ecosystem demonstrates that CryptoZink has fully capitalized on the underlying technology. The ZINK Token is structured in such a way as to support its entire ecosystem. Adoption will be limited not only to end users, but also to developers in as much as the data and service marketplace can be a solution to attract the third-party vendors to the ecosystem. The ZINK Token bears numerous simultaneous functionalities in the context of token adoption to support development of the CryptoZink ecosystem, including but not limited to:
CrytpoZink will perform trans-fee mining. Every time a maker or a taker pays a transaction fee to CryptoZink, the maker or taker will receive ZINK Tokens in an amount that equals the value of the transaction fee. The payment structure for CryptoZink shall be based on the various parts of the platform.
CryptoZink is a global hybrid exchange to easily and securely buy & sell cryptocurrency. CryptoZink will revolutionize the way you Zink (think) about trading. We aim to solve the challenges of trust, security and lack of credible educational material in the space and make available and easily accessible, real-time and predictive cryptocurrency data to everyone, everywhere.
CryptoZink seeks to do more than simply create a platform for traders. CryptoZink’s ambition is to create an active community and knowledge exchange base. This exchange will encompass everything from knowledge sharing to experimental ideas to success stories. Among other things, the Steemit layer will enable a community member to post information, knowledge and content that can receive upvotes.
Members of the CryptoZink community will be able to track their learning progress on a variety of subjects. Online quizzes will measure a user’s knowledge. Community members will be able to earn ZINK Token rewards based on scores, learning level and commitment. Our aim is to make the process of learning cryptocurrency trading both interactive and exciting.
CryptoZink will preserve ongoing stability in general, and a one to one parity with the value of the United States dollar at all times, through a software algorithm that monitors for and takes action with respect to the order of magnitude of ZinkVault volume.
During years 1-2, governance will be in the control of ZINK token holders. All governance issues will be put to a vote. Possession of the ZINK token will vest voting privileges in the ZINK token holder with the table set forth on the “Governance” section of the whitepaper. ZINK token holders will have the privilege to participate in the voting events.
New features can be proposed at any time by any CryptoZink community member by staking a predetermined amount of ZINK tokens. Any suggestions to the platform are welcome, provided the suggestion aligns with CryptoZink’s mission to advance the adoption of cryptocurrencies that are aligned with CryptoZink’s vision.
CryptoZink will features express setup for merchants that will get them running in minutes; customize with easy API and docs. CryptoZink payments system will be fast, inexpensive and ensure merchants do not have to deal with chargeback. Privacy and security to both customers and merchants will be a core focus of this service.
The purpose of a stable coin is to provide a refuge to cryptocurrency investors who seek to exit—whether for a short duration or a long duration—a volatile cryptocurrency in favor of a stable cryptocurrency. Our native Stable Coin, known as ZinkVault, will offer will offer this value proposition to cryptocurrency investors.
