Telcoin is a cryptocurrency accepted and distributed by mobile network operators.

Telcoin Pte Ltd is based in Singapore, with a diverse team operating out of Tokyo, Japan. The company’s eponymous cryptocurrency, Telcoin, is based on the popular Ethereum blockchain. It will be issued to national telecom operators and sold to subscribers, allowing it to be used by anyone - with or without a bank account.

Telcoin’s inception comes from the glaring disparity between access to financial services versus access to telecom services. According to the World Bank , only 1.2 billion people have access to a bank account with payment capabilities. On the other hand, GSMA data indicates that there are approximately 5 billion unique mobile phone subscribers - a figure that is growing steadily. By partnering with Telcoin, mobile operators will have the opportunity to open the floodgates of financial inclusion to unbanked and underbanked customers worldwide. Telcoin will be as easy to access and spend as existing mobile money, and it will be protected by a net of telecom security and compliance. The team envisions it as a complement to existing mobile money and, in the near future, a mainstream driver of cryptocurrency adoption at large.

The Telcoin team comes from a wide range of backgrounds, including telecommunications, IT security, anti-fraud, corporate marketing, mass media, and finance.

It seems to be a promising project to me, I will be waiting for the 30th of October.

Number of people having bank account are very less than number of mobile phone subscribers. An impressive project taken to tie them between, is really appreciated. Good luck for the project Telcoin.

Thanks for the kind words! We are quite excited about Telcoin as well. Appreciate the support!

There's a really nice team here, especially Toby from TenX.

Hi All! We have migrated to a new and improved bitcointalk page!!!

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2387659.new#new (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2387659.new#new)

what will happen if soft cap is not reached?

Telco might just have the perfect distribution method. I guess it will be very hard to implement, but the team looks solid!

From what I read this seems like a great idea. How would you explain how it works to a common person on the street though, unfamiliar with blockchain?

You mean by using cell phones?

This is an ERC-20 token right?

Will your token be listed on exchanges?

You have a lot of competitors. What are the three differences from competitors?

bounty program?

Amazing team, and advisors. I hope they are working closely together. It will make this team invincible.
Best wishes!
