I want to share some of the exciting business applications Team VIVA and our early investors are working on within the VIVA project.

These business models are intended to jump start the VIVA ecosystem with real world uses.

What is VIVA?
VIVA is a unique blockchain project with a technical design that evolves beyond Proof of Work, Proof of Stake and Distributed Proof of Stake.

VIVA introduces a concept called Proof of Authority; a system that delivers instant transactions and seamless consensus. Our CTO, William Banks contrasts various models in his Game of Chains article published on Steemit.(1) But to summarize, Proof of Authority disposes of certain egalitarian notions involved in weaker consensus models and replaces them with cryptographic signature proofs and business contracts enforced by the network and also backed by the network.

Our blockchain differs from run of the mill fare as well.

Designed to be a multidimensional graph rather than linear like a traditional chain. Under this design the VIVA Network is more akin to neural networks, with linked, weighted, interconnected data and an optimizing mechanism which solves the NP hard "traveling salesman problem", in order to reroute the network into multiple optimal configurations depending the tasks required of it.

By drawing from information in our Content Addressable Network (CAN), the VIVA ecosystem allows for a more robust and intelligent network. Rather than reinvent the wheel, VIVA takes advantage of hundreds of millions of dollars in research and investment by starting off with a custom fork of the powerful Hyperledger Fabric, which is backed by the likes of IBM and Intel. Our version is called Ultra Ledger.

VIVA has a three-tier cryptocurrency model consisting of VIVA Crowns, VIVA Coins and market-pegged instruments we call vX which are tied to local fiat currencies for storing value like vUSD, vMXN or vEUR, etc. VIVA Crowns are an indivisible digital asset secured by the best cryptography available. They grant the owner rights to access the network, operate a business referred to as a mint, and receive a Treasury Right (TR) every 90 days to mint a share of the total VIVA coins allotted within that quarter.

A mint can be thought of as a hybrid between a master node and a mining pool.
A mint can do any businesses activity except minting VIVA Coins to sell on the open market.

By having funds first flow through a business activity it helps to put a breaking pressure on supply growth and thus increases the value and utility of each coin minted.

In the VIVA world we do not mine coins, we mint them. Our VIVA Crown holders hold the key to exclusively mint new VIVA coins into the market. The supply is set by Crownholders every 90 days and is a mechanism to keep the price of VIVA Coin orbiting around a price target. Currently this target is $5.50 +-10%. Crown holders who do not operate a mint can sell their quarterly Treasury Rights to other mints who need them to cover their operational expenses.

VIVA Crowns and ICO details
VIVA Crowns are the drivers of our economy. VIVA Crowns are extremely rare. There will only be a total of 10500 Crowns available with the ICO, with only one Crown discoverable per week after that. No more than 42,000 Crowns will ever be issued. To date, 4000 have been issued to early investors and developers; 6500 new Crowns will be offered during our ICO beginning May 1st, 9am PST. The ICO will conclude on May 21 at 11:59 PST or when all Crowns are sold. Crowns will begin at a price of 200 VIVA, with prices increasing by 1 VIVA for each subsequent Crown.


Building upon our growing ecosystem we are launching several projects powered by the VIVA Network:

TradeQwik is our crypto/fiat exchange and gateway to being a VIVA Crown owner;
MedicAxess for streamlined, centrally located medical records;
Cashola, a global peer-to-peer payment system using SMS technology;
POETS (Proof of Educational Transcript Service), an application for higher education through open courseware initiatives,
and Votabit, our solution for global election fraud through open source voting systems.

An overarching goal of this project is that participating worker nodes have the potential to earn a living income with just a backgrounded application running on their computer.

Powered by the VIVA Network.
TradeQwik is the crypto/fiat exchange and the primary gateway in and out of the VIVAconomy. As the first operating mint on the evolving VIVA Network, it is currently live, in beta, and you can sign up at www.TradeQwik.com . As Team VIVA prepares for our debut and ICO on May 1st, TradeQwik is polishing the platform which will serve as the staging ground for the VIVA ICO.

The TradeQwik exchange is the official wallet of both VIVA Crowns and VIVA Coins. Post-ICO the developers of the VIVA Network will be releasing individualized VIVA wallets in several languages including Spanish, German, and Russian.

All transactions on TradeQwik are done using the network's token VIVA Coin. Current exchange pairs being offered for trading are Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Steem, Dash, Golos, XAU/GBG (mg. gold), USD and MXN. By the time of the ICO, TradeQwik plans to have all of the top ten marketcap coins listed on the exchange for seamless trading into and out of VIVA.

Cashola is a peer to peer payment system that utilizes SMS text messaging instead of apps. With funding from the ICO, we will be getting money transfer licenses in place allowing our Network to take a slice of the trillion dollar remittance industry without over complicating it for new users. This solution is based on the fact that many people throughout the world do not have smart phones or reliable internet but they do have cellular service.

MedicAxess is an application that will be a game changer in the medical industry. Our initiative is to have all medical records tied to the individual rather than scattered between medical clinics, hospitals, labs, and care providers. Individuals will be empowered to control who has access to their records when they seek medical care. The unique thing about MedicAxess is that all medical providers will be allowed to store medical records safely on the network for free. There is a small fee charged when retrieving records and this fee must be paid in VIVA, thereby setting up a way for people to offset their medical bills with VIVA earned by donating their computing resources to help others.

POETS, an acronym for Proof of Educational Transcript System, is an exciting application for higher education. What differentiates POETS from other proposed blockchain-backed open course-ware initiatives is that all courses will be from accredited institutions. A condition of institutional participation requires that credits be considered fungible between participating institutions. In short this means that students are allowed to cherry pick courses and instructors from a myriad of institutions taking only the very best, and most rigorous courses, then banking these credits over a lifetime. The student may “cash them in” when they feel they are degree ready and the issuing institution agrees.

This is a sea change in the way education is handled at the student level. Students become life-long learners and demonstrate this competency with a full transcript which is as mobile and fluid as the individual.

Votabit is our solution to global election fraud and a move to more direct democracy throughout the world. Votabit will first be a platform where citizens store their electronic digital signatures for occasions which call for signing local referendums, recalling elected officials not doing their job, and direct impact on the policies shaping their communities. Plans also include offering open source voting systems that will be sold to states and government actors moving to provide time-stamped, secure, transparent elections backed by blockchain technology.

These projects are just the tip of the iceberg that are road-mapped for just FY1. We have more in the works and just want to show you a few of the cards we're holding right now.

In conclusion
The VIVA project is building an entire ecosystem which encourages the general public to participate.

 :) :) :) OUTSTANDING! AMAZING! GREAT! WOOT WOOT! WHAT A GEM IN THE CRYPTO SPACE!    ;D ;D ;D

Reserve indonesian translation sir

too much words,so little picture,it is hard to understand

Lifting your own chair!  ::)
By the way, why is it that you have to sign-up before you can download your whitepaper?
What if, I don't want to sign-up and just want to check your whitepaper first?
And yes, there's too much words in your OP.
Not all people here has the patience to read and understand all the essays that you wrote.

 :o wow this is amazing I love the real world application that can be put to use right away. If it can all be pulled off I can't see why this wouldn't be adopted by the masses

Thanks for the comments.

I wanted to put in images, but it seems maybe because I am new to the forum that I can't just yet?

Thanks kamiyama for sharing the image. I have more, when my account is freed up:-)

Here is a clean link to the whitepaper with no signup required. We have a series of articles that we send, because most people have different questions and we are engaging in educating through a series of content pieces with the signup.

Total suplay coin only 10500 coin dev
and how much price in ico selling and any bounty
what is tipe coin, pow/pos, or token asset system

Waiting bounty campaign announcements

Hi sir I would like to do Vietnamese translation for this project, Pm me if I'm accepted :) thanks.

will keep watching  this thread ,,wait more comments of this coin

Just wanted to share the great coverage we garnered with NEWSWEEK Espanol about Bitcoin and VIVA in Mexico ;-) I couldn't have asked for better support from this country!

http://nwnoticias.com/#!/noticias/dolares-bitcoins-pesos

Sorry that link does not highlight, I tried a url shortener link too, it was removed as suspicious. Guess this site prevents me from doing that too :-/ I trust you all can copy/paste a link if you are interested.

And yes working on bounty announcement. Thanks for staying tuned!

 

Of all the ico's floating around the crypto scene these days, VIVA and the VIVAconomy are what excite me the most. The vision is vast and sweeping, but an incremental and achievable road map appears to be already in place. I am a buy, hold, and support type of investor, not a day trader. Many of the pieces for the vision are already in place. The core team members have been working together for years and share common values. So the potential for conflict appears small. They have been extremely responsive to all inquiries on their chat: https://chat.vivaco.in

This project is for me!

What would be the initial ICO price?

Here is a copy paste from the whitepaper, which I hope answers your questions:

The Viva project already exceeded my expectation. I never thought development would be so fast.Really good job for everyone involved!

The price of Crowns will start at 200 VIVA, which is around $1,000 USD. We have mechanisms in place to keep VIVA stable, and orbiting around $5.50 USD.

Hi Dev. Very interested in your project. I would like to know whether the bounty of the company?

what it was your expectation? can you explain it

Here you go:

I appreciate your support!

How much is Viva coin at the ico sale 200 viva for 1 crown?  project seems to be very quite at the moment , dev when are you planning to start the ico? thanks so much

very interesting project indeed.

I'd like to learn more about the whole process, ELI5 style... Like what do I have to do to earn dividends?

What was the price of VIVA Crown in the 1st ICO?

Will you be using an escrow service to hold the ICO funds until you distribute the coins?

can i reserve translation in Hindi (India)? Let me know

500 us dollar

Every Vivo (a person holding VIVAcoin), has 2 accounts, a checking account and a savings acct. Just hold money in your savings account. That is all. See the whitepaper for details: https://s3.amazonaws.com/vivacoin/viva-white-paper-v-2-0.pdf

Ok, many thanks.

How many tokens were sold during the 1st round?

What is the tottal volume of the ICO?

Have you ever started? How many coin can everyone get?

This looks sketchy as fuck guys!

-ANON newbie account
-NO escrow
-Random accounts showing up to shill with *this user has just woken up from a long period of inactivity" A.K.A - boughten old hacked accounts :/

This is most definitely a 10/10 on my red flag scam radar, do your diligence guys, and don't cry after if you don't! haha

submitted on the best webpage dedicated for ICOs ... TokenMarket.NET

https://tokenmarket.net/tokenmarket-static/perma-asset/logo.1b5cc369d38dc16221e807ddbc54acb2.png

hmm why people want this coin, what's the value?

When are you going to start ico?What abot total coin supply?A lot of technical info about coin is missing in op

I apologize for missing some of these last comments, I have a full plate with our ICO starting TOMORROW May 1st and comments had slowed down this week from this forum.

I invite you all to watch a live interview I did yesterday...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=71xohtOFQ88&feature=youtu.be

I am not some nobody, my professional career over years can be viewed on my linkedin profile here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/dawnparkerwaites/

My profile that goes back 9 years with over 5000 friends and supporters on Facebook is here: https://www.facebook.com/sdlovesgreen

Sorry but Bitcointalk.org is not the center of the universe and covers a small niche actually, hardly a reason to call something a scam. If you have read the whitepaper, did your due diligence on the team and joined in our chat you would see differently.  If you have a compelling reason you think the VIVA Project is a scam other than I have a new profile on your forum then I will address it, otherwise I don't see the above post as anything but trolling. I will be more than happy discussing the actual details of the whitepaper at anytime with anyone.

As for our Crowns, we have 10,500 Crowns that have been issued, 6500 are available for the ICO. There will only ever be 42,000 Crowns.  Crowns are a digital asset that allows you to access our network and operate as a Mint in our ecosystem.  Crowns will start at 200 VIVA Coins tomorrow and VIVA Coins orbit around $5.50 per. Each successive Crown sold will go up by 1 VIVA. This is a rare opportunity to get in on our entire ecosystem. If you take the time to read the whitepaper you will see this project is not like ANYTHING that has come before.

I think that covers all of the latest questions. I invite you to see our website where you can explore all of the details of our ecosystem, network and the ICO. Thank you! Dawn Parker Waites

Dawn,

These numbers I can not find anywhere and they are really important to me:

How many Vivacoins have been minted?

How many Vivacoins can the pre-ICO Crown holders mint per week for this quarter.


Thank you.

I think it is too expensive, why not set more amount but lower price? The higher the worse, I can't imagine the price is so high.

I understand some may feel that the price is too high, but considering they are at the price of a Bitcoin right now, and with Bitcoin really not offering anything significant to the market I find that surprising. How many of you have been rallying for Bitcoin to go up over $100,000 and above ;-)? I believe we will be that project that brings that kind of value to the Fintech space. Please read our whitepaper, what we are building is an ENTIRE ECOSYSTEM.

As for number of VIVA Coins minted in a quarter, that will depend on what the market needs.  As Crownholders we evaluate that need each quarter. You can see the marketcap on Tradeqwik.com

All transactions for buying VIVA Crowns are done in VIVA Coins, that is done to support our market and depending on how high those prices go, what we mint moving forward will largely depend on those figures.  Keep in mind, the Crownholders are guardians of our ecosystem, we increase and decrease supply to keep our base coin VIVA orbiting a stable value at +- 10% of $5.50. That is a figure we calculated from the census bureau of the average income of a first world employee, divided by 24 hours a day, 7 days a week...to come up with an hourly dollar amount. Thank you for your questions!

I understand this. I'm asking how many viva coins have been minted. I understand there was a pre-ICO sale, and those that received Crowns in that sale were already granted TR's. So, how many of those early crown holders are minting and how many have they agreed to mint per week/quarter. We can't tell if we consider your price fair unless we know the supply. They are over 5 dollars each. Are there 1,000,000? 100,000,000? How many people control those? Super important to include total supply in any currency endeavor.

really? this coin seem like run by one mudafocker scammer and all those who supported in replies are shill. i wonder if it really can collect btc from suspicious individuals here. and mind you Dawn, bitcointalk has all.

You are thinking about this like it is a deflationary currency, which VIVA coin is not. Supply does not matter in the same way.  We mint coins when the price goes above 10% and we will contract coins when the price goes below 10% of our target. At the moment the market is just Tradeqwik, it is the sole standing mint in the system. We mint what is needed to keep that market stable.  Where investors can make a boon, is knowing that these mechanisms kick in and you can buy and sell depending what VIVA coin is doing. We are using supply and price as co-modulators, supply modulates the price and price modulates the supply.

We are bringing the first market driven currency to the space. I am sorry but Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have had adoption problems with the general public primarily because of extreme volatility. People want a safe store of value, that is what makes us different.

If the total supply (that you are sole mint and exchange for) does not matter, how have you calculated the current value?

That is a figure we calculated from the census bureau of the average income of a first world employee, divided by 24 hours a day, 7 days a week...to come up with an hourly dollar amount.

How many coins exist for every hour of every day for every first world employee? I don't understand. Without a supply, this is like reading a bar graph with units of measure only along one edge.

It organically grows as our economy grows, that is why there is a new Treasury Right that each Crownholder receives each quarter. It is a Crown's portion of the total amount of tokens needed to run the estimated transactions for that time period in our ecosystem. Many Crownholders will not have a Mint with a business attached, so they can sell their TR to mints that will need it. A Crown is a software license to operate a Mint in our ecosystem. A Mint must be tied to a business activity, it can not exist to mint coins and sell them on the market. A mint CAN utilize the power of our peer to peer network and operate a mining pool to mine other alt coins though.

Any bounty? maybe russian translation need?PM me

Good offer . I will wait for the Russian theme. Quite an interesting project.

yeah this ^^^

I was interested when I first heard about it...then I saw it's a $1000/coin ico and you read the responses here and all these people 'are so excite for develop' it's too sketchy.

like the one guy saying something how high they're getting in the ico and you look at the website TODAY and it's barely gotten anything...because no one wants to pay $1000 for an unproven concept.

This is the year for crypto so who knows...stupid ass GNO sold for like $30 and it's $120 or so today ridiculous for something unproven and proof we're in a bubble. ride it up, but have an exit ready for the pop.

Viva trying to get $1000 for a 'crown' just feels like they're trying to immediately seal their value near bitcoin...seems hard to accomplish and kinda cheap strategy  :-\

I can provide Japanese translation version for this project, please contact me if you need it.

http://joxi.ru/82QZD1qSj6Kg3A

ICO will not end? Will there be a refund? ???

https://chat.vivaco.in/ is not working. can you guys take a look please?

working again for me

Several days ago, I made a query regarding the use of Ultraledger and other softwares that you claim (on your website and in a whitepaper) regarding a serious project we have in mind.  We've had no reply, just an acknowledgement that warns us we might effectively get spammed by emails from the VIVA crowd.  But nothing....  I wonder if VIVA has the capacity to make this work!

Now what? Dump it?

i saw that the price of viva and vivacrown rised a little , maybe there is still life in this?

do not hear much about this project

Well, still need more information details.

There is a very active Basecamp community for crownholders. 

There is a lot of work going on.  There is an active community on Basecamp for those that participated in the ICO and are Viva Crownholders.  They are waiting until they have better developed product before taking it to the wider community as they are conscious of not starting from a dodgy product base.

Those who participated in the ICO are being kept well informed.

Go checkout their exchange Tradeqwik if you're interested.  Its pretty basic at the moment, but works well and V2 is in dev which will be much better.

The Viva economy is gradually coming to life with some important developments expected in the next few months, its a great vision the team has of a whole economy rather than a simple coin.

site is still in maintenence , is there a reason for that? cause  i want to check if my balance is the same or maybe got some coins earned with my crown?

If you are referring to Tradeqwik, its working ok for me, was down yesterday but has been up for awhile now.  Sometimes the outage gets stored in the browser but if you do an F5 it will refresh the page and come up.

yep , that did the trick , forgot that i have an F5 button , i saw that my crown earned me some great return off investment

Yes, theres been some good returns for crown holders and things are just starting to ramp up with some new initiatives due for release in the next few months.

You think it will up a big exchanger, in bleutrade, in yobit or bittrex

I dont think so, i'm pretty sure all trades will be done through Tradeqwik exchange only.

Well first of all, of those 3, I would only consider Bittrex large.

There are two future developments in TradeQwik that will make it appealing:

1 - simply by running a chrome plugin, you can help the exchange close orders and receive a share of the exchange fees
2 - there already are the TradeQwik shares, which allow you to earn income from all trades on the platform.

There is a new version of Tradeqwik in development which looks pretty sweet based on the screenshot preview I saw this week. If the Viva economy takes off then Tradeqwik has the potential to be one of the biggest.

Whats vip min and wher is te wallet of viva

What a shitty coin!

Reading https://www.investitin.com/viva/ (https://www.investitin.com/viva/) I was vomiting all the time.

Crownholders minting VIVAcoins??  Similar to the FED ...  >:(
Inflation coin??? We have a lot of them, they are called USD, EUR and shits like these ...
These guys are thinking yourself  very clever creating VIVAshittynomics, they forgot that there are a lot of alt cryptos out there and they will not die.
Crownholders will not control my ass but I could give them my d*ck.

No speculation - who will care about this coin? No one. And nobody will start using it.

Good luck of your IDIOToconomy ...
