Title: [ANN] Sikoba, a peer-to-peer IOU platform
Post by: sikoba on April 19, 2017, 07:52:10 AM

{ sikoba - the people’s banking system }

Sikoba is a global and decentralised money platform based on peer-to-peer IOUs and built on blockchain technology. Visit our website (http://www.sikoba.com)!

{ Vision }

P2P payments are already above $1 trillion annually. From almost nothing 10 years ago, P2P lending has grown to $26bn in 2015 and is expected to reach $900bn in 2024. We believe that P2P IOU systems have a similar potential and that they will soon become the next frontier in finance.

{ Sikoba summary }

Using mutual credit systems that are not backed by money, but by IOUs of participants who trust each other, the need for an external money supply is limited to a minimum. Every peer-to-peer credit relationship is governed by a contract with specific conditions, fee structure and repayment rules. Using credit conversion, a kind of configurable rippling, payments between participants who do not trust each other become possible. The system will automatically take care of optimal payment paths, netting and clearing. We will support fiat money via gateways, cryptocurrencies as well as many use cases such as inter-company credit networks. Our goal is to provide a platform for operating any monetary system one can think of, together with the tools allowing all of these different systems to interact.

{ How will it work in practice? }

The way it works that you grant other users, whom you know personally, credit on certain terms which you yourself specify. These users can then pay you by drawing on that credit. Fiat, crypto or other assets can still be used for payment, for example if payment by IOU is not possible or not desired. Also, fiat or crypto may actually be required to repay debt. Both for practical and philosophical reasons, Sikoba is not intended to be, or ever become, a pure IOU system.

In the Sikoba system, a user will only ever have exposures to users to whom he or she has explicitly given credit. To give an example: if Bob trusts Alice, and Charles trusts Bob, and Bob allows what we call “credit conversion” for Alice, then Alice can pay Charles. However, Charles will only see Bob as his counterparty, and not Alice.

{ Sikoba token presale }

Sikoba has launched a token presale. The goal is to raise enough money to produce a MVP (minimum viable product), based on which a token crowdsale will then be launched before the end of 2017

Do you have sources for that expected value of P2P lending? I'd like to take a look at the data where that's coming from. I think a lot of things could go wrong in between the span of then and now, so I'm wondering how that conclusion/proposition was reached.

It promises to be a good lending platform for trusted users and more than this, a way to introduce more persons to crypto world by the easy method to receive/give money and low fees, low interest to pay, very different from banks.
All the best for Sikoba team, I hope you help to make the bitcoin community bigger than now with your project.

This is defiantly an interesting concept, although I know an interesting concept don't guarantee success.
Regardless of the outcome, this doesn’t seem like a scam coin and probably won’t dissipate overnight (and I’m not just saying that ‘cause I’m part of the sig campaign).

Yeah, I think dev needs a thread in another language so people better understand in detail with this project. As part of the team that promoted this project I feel happy and hope this project will be smooth. Thank you

I have just checked the site completely about Sikoba investment and FAQs. It has clear explanation for all the people wish to invest on the right place. As p2p system have huge people do payment via this kind of service. Therefore, they have implemented the p2p Iou platform expecting with the great success and I sure they will rock.

You should edit your link to:  http://www.sikoba.com/www/presale/index.html

You can access it, The public presale will start tomorrow on Tuesday 25th April at 12:00 UT. I don't doubt this system because they use smart contract from ethereum.

Everything runs smoothly according to the roadmap specified, hopefully this can be successful in the future, P2P IOU platform sounds unfamiliar in our ears, but it would be a good thing if it continues to support.

This decentralized money platform should be great opportunity for everyone which has big potential in finance system. As Sikoba tokens​ presale has been started since 25th April, don't miss it as you can get many advantages ; What you get in this presale is more tokens per ETH than participants of a future crowdsale will get: either 60% more (during preallocation) or 50% (during public presale). What is not known at this stage are the terms of that future crowdsale. More information please visit : http://www.sikoba.com/www/presale/index.html

There seems to be interest in the project, close to 600ethers raised already but what I don't understand is the ethers used for contract allocation, is it deposit by the team or from an investors

I really do have a doubt regarding the presale ,it looks like you have provided an ETH address in your website to participate in the presale,but what i did not understand is that how would you differentiate between different users when everyone is sending the coins to one wallet, i am not an expert in ETH platform and so is the reason i am having this doubt,will you be distributing the tokens to the address who participated in the presale.
