Once connected to Spl.yt, buyers can view the global inventory of individual listings automatically populated from all e-commerce websites integrated with the protocol. Shoppers only need to visit one e-commerce site to search for and purchase their desired item securely, and at the lowest price. Since all information from these various online retailers is integrated, once a buyer purchases an item, it will automatically de-list from every other marketplace, avoiding double-purchasing the same item.
Reputation
Today, a vendor’s reputation is probably the most important selling point to any shopper. A great product at a great price means nothing if the source of the product has a tarnished reputation for quality, service, or delivery. Buyers also have valuable reputations to guard, though reports are often listed on certain sites, and not on others. In addition, most marketplaces manage their reputational systems internally, meaning buyers and sellers must build and manage their reputations across multiple marketplaces from scratch over and over. Spl.yt syncs reputation scores across e-commerce sites, resulting in the strongest ratings and review system possible.
Dispute Resolution
Dispute resolutions with customers can be especially challenging for vendors since different platforms might have very different policies. This lack of consistency calls for more time and energy on the part of both buyers and sellers in reaching a solution. Spl.yt employs a dispute resolution protocol using Spl.yt Access Tokens (SATs) that will facilitate the dispute resolution process.
The process is designed to facilitate a fair and efficient resolutions using a poker-like staking mechanism. Let’s say a buyer claims never to have received a purchase. To make a dispute claim, the buyer deposits a set amount of SATs into escrow. This escrow process is designed to deter fraudulent dispute claims. If the seller confirms the buyer’s claim, the tokens are returned to the buyer, the payment for the the item is refunded and the dispute is resolved. However, if the buyer and seller disagree, the seller will then deposit tokens into escrow to make an opposing claim, triggering the dispute resolution protocol. This is where the Spl.yt community and self regulating aspect of the system come into play. Qualified anonymous arbiters who participate in the Spl.yt ecosystem are assigned to random cases in which they are presented evidence from both sides in order to resolve the dispute. When the resolution is reached, the smart contract will automatically dispense the escrowed tokens to the winner. The arbiter will also receive a small percentage of the escrowed tokens as a fee for their efforts. We see the combination of transparency via the blockchain, smart contract resolutions, and Spl.yt token mechanics as a way for the ecommerce to run in a smooth and fair manner that does not require parties to transact with blind trust.

Innovators and entrepreneurs are constantly introducing new cryptocurrencies, each promising new and different feature to attract investors and users. The reaction of the global official sector to cryptocurrencies varies because decentralized technology does not easily adapt to existing definitions and regulatory structures. This sector will probably continue to be cautious as it monitors risks to financial integrity, consumer protection, financial stability, tax evasion and tax treatment and monetary policy. Regulatory leaders, like Japan, will probably set the standard for the rest of the world in a scenario where the boundless nature of cryptocurrencies requires a cohesive and collaborative effort.With all the talk about cryptocurrencies in today's news, there will always be questions about ""why does this have any value?"" Even at face value, this is not the case when it comes to cryptocurrencies as a movement in general, but in addition there are some cryptocurrencies that have a much greater weight for them – and that's where the Coin INGOT system comes into play.
There is discreet skepticism about any new asset class in the expanding world of FinTech and cryptocurrencies, there are also some coins that stick much more than others. While a lot of coins and tokens are based primarily on public perception of value or speculation on potential value in the future, the INGOT coin family is the first to come on the market to offer real and tangible value to cryptocurrency. INGOT Coin will create a complete solution integrating 6 fundamental components of the ecosystem and providing a unique digital asset for the traditional asset and currency markets to solve all the challenges mentioned above, thus creating a link between the cryptographic market and the traditional market. The IC Ecosystem will establish 6 different components to work hand-in-hand under a single umbrella, providing all community members with the opportunity to take advantage of upcoming opportunities in all markets. The components of the ecosystem, as illustrated below, are IC Wallet, IC Exchange, IC Brokerage, IC Digital Bank, IC Certificator and IC ICO Accelerator.
INGOT Coin will provide a platform that meets the needs of beginners and advanced traders to trade with minimum initial capital. IC will also provide its cryptocurrency, which will be available on various exchange exchanges for all investors and market participants to purchase. IC will not show bias against any market participant and will offer equal and equal opportunities to all participants regardless of the size of the trade, the type of order or the initial capital.
Ensure no means to manipulate the market and steal unethical or illegal money in the ecosystem, KYC and AML policies must be sufficient and exceed the needs of all parties, whether they are regulators, banks, intermediaries or exchanges. KYC and AML compliance may seem severe for some investors; however, this is a necessary procedure to ensure the safety of the ecosystem and all stakeholders. This is done to make the ecosystem reliable, safe, transparent and compliant; consequently, by compiling the unique ecosystem KYC, participants can open an account in the IC Digital Bank, in the IC Exchange, in the IC Brokerage and in the IC portfolio simultaneously to exchange cryptographic, fiatic and traditional tools. later.

A study by Accenture of viewers watching broadcast TV, revealed that 87% watch with a 2nd screen (mobile device). Our current culture of entertainment is a multi-tasking, detail-seeking, fact-checking, high-speed game of thrill-seeking viewers raising the stakes ever higher for entertainment providers and brand marketers seeking a slice of their divided attention.
Today’s viewers enjoy being part of polls, deciding outcomes of shows, sharing favorites with other viewers and engaging in other more direct ways with their viewed entertainment. With these kinds of habits, desires and demands, how can brands and content providers (TV shows, online channels, and networks) engage the modern viewer and effectively hold his or her attention?
The benefits of enhanced engagement is easy to see for TV shows and digital content providers too. The more engaged and involved viewers are, the easier it is for content providers to gain lucrative sponsorship from brands.
A great example of a show iPowow worked with to improve audience engagement was “Modern Family” on the USA Network, sponsored by Target. Viewers had the opportunity of going to ModernFamilyLive.com while the show was airing and to participate live on their 2nd screens. Viewers were given fun options like choosing whose side they were on when dilemas came up between characters, guessing the outcome of a situation, or voicing their own opinions on a plot quandary. As soon as viewers picked an option, they could see what percentage of others agreed with their decision. As viewers played along with the show, they could also see which top 5 viewers racked up the most points by being right on their guesses for outcomes. This made for a satisfying, real-time, community-based experience, beyond just watching the show. Modern Family fans could let their love of the show be known to other fans and flaunt their knowledge of the characters by engaging and competing as the show aired.
Another example of enhanced viewing experience used Facebook Live to interact with a Top 30 News anchor as she shared news bits from different years occuring on that day. Emoticons floated across the screens of smartphones as reactions were shared in real time by viewers. The news anchor was able to share the results of a poll about a controversial current event topic and comment on the percentages on both sides of the issue. In this way, individuals were able to directly contribute to the entire viewing experience by providing feedback that was incorporated by the news anchor.
The HIT Protocol, an iPowow initiative, takes this audience participation to the next level by incentivizing even more and deeper engagement. The system accomplishes this by offering additional rewards to viewers for their participation. Rewards are distributed to viewers in HIT tokens which can then be redeemed for valuable goods and services in the Digital Shopping Plaza. By use of smart contracts and the tokenization enabled by blockchain technology, the HIT Protocol dramatically upgrades the way viewers engage with shows and brands. Viewers will look forward to seeing their favorite shows so they can have the opportunity to earn HITs.

Rewarding TV and video viewers with HIT tokens adds one more important facet to the dazzling jewel of engagement for consumers. A facet with the potential to outshine all others.These are our official social platforms:

The dramatic increase in GAS fees is attributed to the viral popularity of a slew of games emerging from online forums. While not as prejudicial to Ethereum transaction throughput as CryptoKitties, these new dApps have amassed over 26,000 transactions in 24 hours, causing GAS costs to double in price to $0.02.The spike in Ethereum dApp game interest has demonstrated the fragile nature of the Ethereum blockchain, illustrating the impact of a relatively small increase in transaction throughput on the capacity of the network. Ether Shrimp Farm, one of the most popular games causing network congestion, places players in control of a virtual shrimp farm with the goal of optimizing shrimp production, ultimately trading eggs for ETH.
New solution of Quantum-Secure Blockchain
TIM is GPS united with blockchain. And this changes everything. It exponentially upgrades the performance of permission-less agents by a new consensus mechanism based on geomining. The dapps become hyperlocal and geo-location aware. This boosts security and experience. The MVP network, at BitPost, provides 100k+tps capabilities for token transactions, smart contracts, IOT array operations scalable to 100M tps. TIM network is automatically and dynamically managed by swarms and geo-mining for load distribution, fraud detection and network operations.
A multi-zone blockchain running on specialized proof of belongingness based swarm defense app mechanism. Along with standard dapps, TIM blockchain provides hyperlocal geo-fenced dapps for economical and performant system of utility dapps. The defense mechanism works by a swarm of community apps which are run through communities or organizations with special smart contract with TALKING Foundation for providing a useful service along with proof of location for geo-mining
The blockchain can handle all natural dapps like transaction, insurance, speculation, contracts etc. In addition to the above dapps, TIM can also host geo-fenced dapps which boosts the security and privacy.
TIM will have 1.1 billion tokens and normal production rate of 0.01 tokens per second per DAG. The production rate will be regulated by foundation to match human population. The notion of matching human population is for promoting a philosophy of growth. The tokens will be rewarded in new blocks every 5 seconds. The token will be assigned over all the main network for winning nodes of each of the zones. Therefore, the rewarded tokens would be mostly fractional. This is called micro-distribution. These reserved for various kinds of econometric agenda. The major share of pre-mined tokens is reserved for impact investments. TIM foundation has deep interest in propagating DAPPS for impact work for Africa development through various entrepreneurship initiatives. Apart from development expenses, a stability fund from TIMs are reserved by TIM Foundation for helping crypto-currency growth initiatives or helping starved projects. Stability funds can also be used for merging desirable networks to increase development resources or defences for the TIM.

IC Brokerage Services will provide investors the opportunity to trade on a wide variety of financial products with liquidity pools linked to the best, diversified and developed exchanges. Traders can diversify their portfolios through investing in global financial instruments across multiple asset classes.

IC Brokerage will bridge the gap between investors and liquidity providers by providing a one platform pivot that will enable the clients to view and trade IC financial products. Moreover, the platform will contain the highest volume trading shares, indices, ETFs, fiat currencies and commodities.

Through the IC team’s financial expertise, we will try to select the best developed markets to be offered to our clients such as the United States equity markets (Nasdaq, S&P 500 and Dow Jones Industrial Average), European equity markets (Germany, France, UK, etc.), commodity markets which will be traded on the highest rating exchanges such as CME and ICE futures and ETFs that will include Blackrock, Vanguard, State Street and Wisdom Tree.

IC will boost its competitive advantage in the market by providing low commissions, tightening the spreads through high volumes trading, conducting high quality market research reports that will cover all IC market products, running practical risk management tools, delivering an up to date fundamental and technical analysis and serving fund management programs that meet client’s risk and return, and objectives & constraints.

IC Brokerage will maintain client’s funds in totally segregated accounts to comply with the highest standards that will ensure safeguarding clients’ money; hence the maximum loss that they can suffer is their initial investment.

Furthermore, IC Brokerage will comply with the KYC & AML procedures which if filled grants the user access over the whole IC Ecosystem.

If an IC Community user wants to buy a stock or commodity for cryptocurrencies the user will initiate a transaction by sending a request to the IC Brokerage through the IC Wallet application and a smart contract is initiated.

The user’s request is entered to the respective IC Brokerage account and the contract value in is transferred to the user’s account on the IC Exchange as crypto to be exchanged/liquidated for fiat. Once the crypto to fiat order is matched the smart contract triggers an instant buy order for the desired stock or commodity through the IC Brokerage and the fiat generated from the exchange of the crypto on the IC Exchange is deposited into the IC Brokerage account to finalize the settlement.

The semi instantaneous process of placing a stock/commodity buy order as soon as the crypto to fiat sell order is matched, provides a highly efficient and effective way to hedge investments at unmatched speeds.

iPowow is now developing a smart contract to be integrated into its existing platform to improve the overall experience for viewers, content providers, and brands. Data can be used to personalize experiences for viewers. And all will be carefully regulated via smart contract with the permission of the viewer.
Today, by tokenizing the global TV and Video industries, we harmonize and optimize all three important elements of the ecosystem: viewers, networks/content creators, and advertising brands. Through the rapid adoption and use of our HIT tokens among these three groups, we inspire a new, more holistic relationship between them all, with increased transparency and added value.
Our new blockchain ecosystem for television and video content, based on the HIT protocol means:
• Viewers get paid to watch & participate with their favorite shows
• Content Creators engage viewers & generate revenue
• Advertisers gain transparency & insight on their audience
All the players in the media ecosystem benefit using HITs, for a sustainable exchange of HIT tokens between members. Let’s see how this works:
For Viewers
We are creating a global marketplace — a digital Shopping Plaza. With the HIT protocol, every moment a viewer spends watching or interacting with their favorite show is a way to put HIT tokens into their account, which they can seamlessly use to purchase digital and physical goods and services on our inventoried item management system. This transforms the anonymous consumer patterns on TV and online video into a worldwide economy where the consumer of video content is fully engaged and in control, with more choices, tailored to each viewer’s preferences. No more whack-a-moling through annoying and seemingly random pop-up ads a viewer has no interest in, before being allowed to see desirable content.
For TV Networks and Content Creators
The HIT protocol provides TV networks with new interactive marketing campaigns to enhance the viewer experience and keep them coming back for more. To help drive repeat engagement, broadcasters and their programs will be given special campaign management tools, including the ability to create show-specific badges and achievement levels attached to limited-time campaigns. Sponsorship integration will allow the promotion of partners within given campaigns. Subscription Video On Demand (SVOD) will present opportunities for partners to recycle evergreen or continued-demand content with new interactive experiences.
Compensation for content creators on channels like YouTube has always been an area of contention in an ever-changing terrain of percentages and viewer stipulations that make earning a fair reward for quality content a challenge. When viewers interact with creators, the HIT protocol tracks that engagement, enabling the content creator to learn more about their audience which in turn helps in the creation of better content.
Using the HIT protocol, these kinds of creators will be able to choose how they will be compensated for their content to let the market decide the value of their contributions. TV shows and content creators can give viewers the power to choose the outcome of character eliminations, plot twists and affect the future by voting with their HIT tokens for an enhanced synergistic rapport to develop a loyal following.
For Brands
Today, brand advertisers don’t have any real data about who sees their TV commercials or what viewers do after seeing commercials. The HIT protocol changes this by allowing full transparency so advertisers can see who is interacting with their commercials or with any interactive promotions they run within TV shows or video content. (Of course, viewers must give their consent to be tracked and they are rewarded for their consent.) This never-before-possible level of transparency gives brands a new level of insight into their customers and potential customers, so they can tailor their advertising, campaigns, messaging, and even products to a specific audience more effectively and for higher sales and a better rate on investment for advertising.
The HIT blockchain protocol of iPowow creates the best possible ecosystem for Viewers, Networks/Content Creators and Brands. It’s win/win/win for everyone. Come up to the next level of TV and video with us! These are our official social platforms:

The nodes in main network who want to add transactions for a zone would need to have all the zone files for previous block. The winning node adds current transactions, swarm defense signatures, network fork or merger points based on waiting transactions in current block for current zone, and awards for previous block. These details are verified by all other full-nodes or partial nodes for confirming the winner, and is an independently verifiable information sets.
The nodes in hyperlocal network who want to add transactions in hyperlocal dapp would need the main network state file and hyperlocal state file only. They don’t need hyperlocal zone files for previous block to add transactions, as any conflict will be referred to main network’s zone for resolution. Thus, the hyperlocal network would need to refresh themselves of 2 small files which would be less than a kilobyte, expectedly.
Repeating another historic assumptions like floppies, I expect that 1 kilobyte size for a network state file is large enough for all practical transactional needs and hyperlocal dapps extend that feature exponentially. Though time has proven all such assumptions are merely wrong in the vent of new innovations. Maybe in very long term, the main network would become conflict resolution media for hyperlocal dapps and hyperlocal dapps would carry all the functionalities. That way the main network will have highest performance. It requires a change of mindset from current notion of blockchains, and will take time for participants to realize the best usage of the network.
Blockchain has been one of the most amazing innovations since the Internet came into presence. Blockchain technology permits everyone to hold and make transactions as strangers but in a completely transparent manner. There is no mediator in between two person making the transaction, and the entire process becomes easier and cheaper.
The blockchain network comprises of nodes, i.e., distributed servers. All the nodes can accept and process the transaction. The nodes on the network share information about the candidate transaction. As much as the logic/tech part of it sounds confusing, the business models are so much easier to understand and are really impressive.
TIM is enterprise ready. Amongst many, few applications of TIM blockchain are discussed below:
Personal Blockchain: Fee Free subchains to be your personal blockchain - TIM can host 2^60 subchains which are protected by fee free challenger nodes. With same level of performance and security as TIM network, subchains can be your new email address or health record or roaming data storage like dropbox. There are a host of benefits where such a mailbox could be totally encrypted and free of any advertising or profiling your communications. It can be used for other services like one can pay for what you use for storage or bandwidth.

Not only does fractional ownership offer opportunities to people who otherwise may not be able to afford or maintain expensive assets on their own, it also provides sellers of these assets with an entirely new consumer base. Assets such as artwork are generally thought to be highly “illiquid,” meaning that even though a work of art may generate a handsome return on investment, finding a buyer can be extremely difficult. One way to increase liquidity in a market, is to increase the number of potential buyers. By enabling fractional ownership, Spl.yt has the potential to expand the buyer pool by a significant percentage. Spl.yt’s protocol can automatically initiate and run digital auctions, eliminating the need for auction houses, which inevitably take a percentage of the final sale — money out of the seller’s pocket.
Given the obvious advantages of fractional ownership to buyers and sellers, why hasn’t this capability been invented previously? The short answer is that the technology to facilitate the sale, use, and maintenance of fractionally-owned assets simply hadn’t been invented until recently. This technology is, of course, blockchain.
Spl.yt uses smart contracts, which are essentially blockchain-based applications, to automate the many transactions involved in the sale, use, and maintenance of fractionally-owned assets. In other words, a process that would normally require intermediaries to carry out (sometimes at such high cost that they wouldn’t be profitable under traditional frameworks), can be simply executed by technology.To learn more about Spl.yt and the decentralized future of e-commerce, visit Spl.yt Website: https://www.spl.yt/

INGOT Coin believes that successful partnerships and alliances rely on the principle that the work involved in maintaining a partnership, and the benefits from the alliance are equally spread, rather than one partner carrying the load whilst the other reaps the benefit.The best results from a strategic partnership generally occur when each partner delivers excellence in service areas that are different but related to the other partner(s) and where the partners are not adversarial in the market place. That way, by partnering up, INGOT Coin and other partners can focus on its strengths, whilst having reliable people in other organizations to cover the areas outside its expertise. New partnerships of INGOT Coin provide opportunities to learn new strategies and open up new revenue streams. Working within a partnership with a genuine win-win intention can give INGOT Coin business the edge it needs to surpass its competitors. If you decide to continue working exclusively on your own, you run the risk of your business’s growth becoming stagnant.

INGOT Coin was pleased to announce new partnerships that will be more collaboration than competition in the coming brave new world of cryptocurrencies.n the recent couple of months, INGOT Coin has been establishing different partnerships with diverse and innovative ICOs from around the world.

At the moment, there are many decent projects that have released products or at least a prototype. However, all of them only specialize in a small part of investment process. Unlike competitors, Zichain develops a full-fledged ecosystem that opens access to financial infrastructure for investors and managers in one place.

INGOT Coin is pleased to announce a partnership with Modern Finance Chain. The partnership secures liquidity for the Modern Finance Chain payment solution by delivering access to various liquidity pools through INGOT Coin and its currency partners. MF Chain is building the most cost-effective cryptocurrency payment ecosystem that rewards the consumer as well as the merchant.

At a time when much of the television business is discussing which type of research currency to use to measure TV viewership for advertisers, interactive TV company iPowow is looking to fund a plan to create a cryptocurrency that would pay people for watching their favorite shows. The currency would also compensate viewers for sharing data — quickly proving to be a precious commodity — about who they are, what they watch and what they buy. And if all of this wasn’t buzzworthy enough, the iPowow folks are planning to use blockchain as the technological foundation for their new business. What iPowow calls HIT tokens and the HIT protocol can benefit the TV business by offering three solutions to problems such as viewers watching on noncommercial platforms, inconsistent cross-platform audience measurement and a lack of data about TV advertising, iPowow CEO Gavin Douglas said. Benefits for Viewers, Advertisers With the HIT protocol, viewers get paid to watch shows, content creators and networks engage viewers and generate more revenue from digital viewing, and advertisers get transparency and audience insights. It would work this way: A viewer tunes in a show and sees a graphic that says they’re getting five HIT tokens. The viewer either clicks his or her remote or goes to a second screen to activate an account and accept the tokens. The viewer must have granted GDPR consent to share data. Later, the viewer can go to a digital shopping plaza to buy things with the HIT tokens. A number of large retailers have expressed interest in letting viewers use HIT tokens to buy real merchandise, Douglas said. Jill Rosengard Hill, executive VP at market research firm Magid, said there was potential to the idea of a reward program for TV. “There is a segment of consumers who are open to the exchange of their data for a fee,” she said. A recent Magid study found 33% of mobile users said they would give up access to their data in exchange for a discount. “Marketers are looking at loyalty programs or the exchange of coins, gifts or money to drive loyalty and to drive tunein,” she said.There have been previous efforts to create reward systems for watching TV. GetGlue, which rewarded viewers with stickers, was acquired in 2012 by Viggle, a mobile app that offered points that could be exchanged for gift cards or access to premium content. For the past seven years, iPowow has been in what it dubbed the “participation TV” business, creating interactive features that can be sponsored for 200 shows on networks such as ABC, Fox and USA, local stations and digital video platforms such as Facebook Live and Twitch. For Twitch, iPowow created an extension that lets viewers pay gamers they’re watching live and have input into how games will be played. Douglas said iPowow has demonstrated that its system works whether on the first screen or second screen, and on all platforms — linear broadcast, VOD, over-the-top and online. He hopes to raise the millions iPowow will need in August. Blockchain Migration for HIT iPowow plans to build its new HIT protocol on a blockchain foundation and migrate its current technology to blockchain as well by year end. Blockchain enables the cryptocurrency HIT tokens, which cost less to distribute initially than real dollars and also provide transparency, immutability and consistency while decentralizing account information. The HIT protocol will also be open, allowing other companies to develop apps, which will increase the utility of the system. iPowow has been scanning the horizon but doesn’t see any competitor ready to implement an effective TV rewards program. “The way we see it is, someone going to do this,” Douglas said. “Someone’s going to produce a media engagement token that’s global and covers all video interactions, and people get rewarded for watching and they can go spend it on things. We say it’s going to be us, so that’s what we’re going to do.These are our official social platforms:

What is the main advantages of cryptocurrency exchange system? The concept is based on a decentralized platform that is on a blockchain technology which joins together to manage the database of all the transactions taking place. Thus, via a decentralized system, we can keep count of all the transaction and transparency is maintained.since the blockchain concept is highly encrypted via a technique called cryptography, tracing the path of the transaction becomes almost impossible. Hence, there is full anonymity and no risk or threat of theft. Therefore this system does not play with the trust of people. the transactions take place from client to client and thus are just a matter of seconds.No third party involvement and hence very low or no fees of transaction. Often the regular payment gateways or online payment do the transactions via a third party and charge high transaction fees. But such is not the case with cryptocurrency system.You can have your own cryptocurrency wallet and you can use it anytime and anywhere for any kind of payment very conveniently. Thus you are your own bank and geographical barriers are not a problem anymoreCrypto VS Crypto

IC ecosystem is designed to provide unique first of its kind innovative solution as well as improved solutions to existing models, through the IC Wallet and exchange users can exchange, store and transfer a variety of cryptocurrencies users will also be able to participate in certified ICOs through the Ecosystem. The figure above resembles a typical crypto/crypto transaction in the IC ecosystem.
After registering for the IC Wallet and depositing crypto funds users are immediately able to send, receive and exchange cryptographic tokens. In this example, Ahmed wishes to exchange some Bitcoins for INGOT Coin; the user transfers the desired amount of Bitcoin from the IC Wallet to the IC Exchange custodial wallet and places a BTC/IC order and a smart contract is initiated, Sandra on the other hand wishes to exchange some INGOT Coin for Bitcoin and respectively transfers some INGOT Coin from the IC Wallet to the IC Exchange custodial wallet, once the funds are available in the IC Exchang custodial wallet the user can place an IC/BTC trade order. Once orders are matched the exchange is completed according to the smart contract and the funds are directly deposited into each user’s IC Wallet with no third-party intervention, meaning the funds do not pass through any third-party wallet before reaching their destination wallet.

Crypto VS Fiat
The Ecosystem will provide an environment for trading crypto/fiat pairs faster and cheaper than all currently existing platforms. Given that the IC Bank and IC Exchange are connected to the same network, transactions are all processed internally. The figure above demonstrates a crypto/fiat transaction where Steve wishes to exchange his crypto for fiat, Laura wishes to buy crypto using fiat. Steve places a USD/IC buy order through his IC Wallet interface which instantly places an order on the IC Exchange order book after transfer of their coins to the IC Exchange custodial wallet. Once the order is matched, the user’s IC Bank account is deposited with the proceeds of the sale in USD.

Anyone places a IC/USD buy order through his IC Digital Bank interface which immediately places an order on the IC Exchange order books, a temporary hold on the order amount is placed on the fiat funds in the user’s IC Bank account. Once the order is matched the recently purchased cryptocurrencies are deposited directly into the user’s IC Wallet according to the smart contract and the previously held fiat funds for the amount of the transaction in the buyer’s IC Bank account are transferred to the seller’s IC Bank account instantly as an internal transfer. Given that the exchange and the bank are under the same umbrella, the system is able to perform deposits first and settlements second in the back offices, it is just as easy as an internal transfer.
Crypto VS Traditional
IC offers the first sustainable model for crypto/traditional (stocks & commodities) trading. By integrating a traditional brokerage with a cryptocurrency exchange we have arrived at an innovative solution that connects the crypto markets to traditional markets such as ICE, CME, NYSE, NASDAQ, EURONEX, LSE & many more.

Someone wants to buy stocks from the IC Brokerage in exchange for IC. In the ordering phase he/she will place a market order on the platform based on the best IC Brokerage bid and ask prices for the specified stock and IC. As orders are place, the IC Brokerage will start the matching phase where the IC Brokerage will connect both participants with the best buy order and the best sell order for the specified pair. The IC Brokerage will base its matching on a price-time priority matching, therefore providing no bias towards any participants. The movement of funds will be from the IC Wallet to the Exchange segregated wallet, then after the sale happens the money is internally transferred to his/her bank account. As soon as the money is there, wang will be able to purchase the specified stock that he is requesting.

Traditional VS Fiat
One customer wants to buy (AAPL) Apple stocks from the IC Brokerage with fiat (USD) while another one wants to sell (AAPL) Apple stocks for fiat (USD) currency. In the ordering phase both participants will place their market orders in the IC Brokerage based on the best IC Brokerage bid and ask prices for AAPL and USD respectively. As orders are place, the IC Brokerage will start the matching phase where the IC Brokerage will connect both participants as their orders were the best buy order and the best sell order for the USD and AAPL pair. The IC Brokerage will base its matching on a price-time priority matching, therefore providing no bias towards any participants. With respect to price, size and value of order, only time will be considered as a factor to match. In other words, if there is a buy order at a price of 100 USD and there are 2 sell orders of Apple shares worth 100 USD, then the system will automatically take the participant with that ordered the sell first.

Fiat VS Fiat
The best option for explanation is giving an example. Marc wants to trade his U.S Dollars for Euros while Julia wants to trade her Euros for U.S Dollars. This order will be considered as Fiat vs Fiat as both participants are only looking to exchange the type of fiat currency that they own. This is done most of the time to hedge different prices if the participants have business in different countries and receive a variety of currencies. The process starts with the participants ordering their requested currency. Let's take Carlos and Maria as an example. Carlos and Maria will place their market orders in the IC Digital Bank through the IC Platform and based on the best bid and ask prices for the Euro and the USD. As requests are ordered, the IC digital Bank will match the best ask and best bid prices together. As orders are matched, the U.S Dollars are transferred from Maria’s IC Digital Bank account to Carlos’s IC Digital bank and Euros are transferred from Carlos’s IC Digital Bank account to Maria’s IC Digital Bank account.

Custodial services
IC Digital Bank will provide 24/7 automated payment processing with high-level web-based custodial services. The IC Digital Bank will also facilitate the IC Brokerage and IC Exchange duties, along with providing day-to-day online services such as e-payments. Furthermore, clients are able to open different bank accounts ranging from current and saving, to brokerage accounts. The IC Digital Bank will also provide fund management for all interested stakeholders and support their trading activities by providing unmatched settlement and remittance speed at the lowest fees.

Payment Processing
Fiat funds such as Euro or US Dollar can be deposited in the IC Bank and managed manually by the IC Exchange operator or automated through the implementation of payment processing features through the IC Digital Bank interface.

The next evolution in online sales has finally arrived. Merchants great and small, from the occasional eBay seller or storefront dealer on Amazon, to large-scale vendors across dozens of international online markets, will all now have a swift, secure, and efficient way to connect to the blockchain and list items for sale through an innovative new smart contract-based protocol called Spl.yt.
Spl.yt is a blockchain-powered “public social utility,” meaning anyone with an internet connection can use it at no cost besides the gas needed to secure the blockchain. The power of decentralized cryptocurrencies and smart contracts makes this possible because users themselves can define the growth of the system while directly reaping the benefit of their contributions. What’s more, Spl.yt is run by the Spl.yt Core Foundation, a non-profit designed to work itself out of existence, leaving a system that runs itself (similar to the internet) without any controller-middleman susceptible to bias or corruption.
Spl.yt’s smart contract protocol enables the formation of a global inventory and universalized reputation scores as well as the automation of such costly processes as dispute resolution and affiliate marketing management.
Once connected to Spl.yt, buyers can view the global inventory of individual listings automatically populated from all e-commerce websites integrated with the protocol. Shoppers only need to visit one e-commerce site to search for and purchase their desired item securely, and at the lowest price. Since all information from these various online retailers is integrated, once a buyer purchases an item, it will automatically de-list from every other marketplace, avoiding double-purchasing the same item.

At that time, while designing the logistics track and trace solution for our postal client, we had 2 options, to say yes to Big Money or Big Impact. If we had designed a solution with servers and databases, it could have suited a limited use case at a higher cost and possibly at a respectable margin for us. But we chose to make an impact. A low cost solution without servers and databases also without all the heavy blue collar operations, would be suitable for low lying economic regions.
After 1 year of hustle and design marathons, we completed the three major code bases over 20% ERC20 codebase. TIM is hyperlocal, geo-mined and works by proof of belongingness(PoB). These 3 features make TIM superbly scalable, fast and robust.
Low Transaction Cost in Africa
The geo-mining module creates multiple sub network, where each network independently adds and validates the transactions in its geographical area. The network splits into 2 variable sized triangles if the transaction fee and waiting transactions fulfill a pre-defined condition. Similarly, the network merges into nearby zones either fully or partially if waiting transactions reduces. Such a system provides high performance similar to large enterprise cloud based solutions.
Isolated from Remote Incidents
There are special types of dapps on TIM network which are geo-fenced and zero-knowledge proof based, called hyperlocal dapps. Hyperlocal dapps maintain their own blockchain file and only the TIM coin spending is captured in main network without checks unless a conflict occurs. Conflict resolution is managed by zonal nodes and costs the usual zonal transaction fees. In honest hyperlocal dapps, the ideal cost of transaction is zero as well as realtime. This also creates a network where high volumes doesn’t impact global blockchain performance. Such a resiliency creates an internet grade blockchain.
Clean and green planet
The proof of belongingness(PoB) is the work-horse for block creation by nodes. The PoB is an improvement over PoS(proof of stake) and PoW(proof of work), so that there is no hogging of ownership by select few and also not as polluting like PoW energy guzzlers. PoB works by geo-location where certain large number of apps act as trusted source of location. And these large swarm of trusted truth source authenticating any node which wants to add a block in its region. This creates resiliency and also a high performance environment. The opportunity to add block also becomes available to a larger number of newer nodes.
Role of the Impact Fund
TIM blockchain requires only 5 TIM Coins as stake for nodes interested in creating new block. This is an extra protection mechanism where malicious nodes would loose stake for attacking the network. The staking of 5 coins is low and inclusive for democratic participation. The fund will distribute tokens to entrepreneurs in under-developed and backward regions like Africa and Asia, etc.
The new face of Africa
Exchange of information is already getting enabled in remote parts of the world. An economic media for exchange of value will unlock huge potential of Africa. Easy banking services and commerce are quick wins. Further integration into global economy will aid in uplifting of poverty, health and sanitation.

The dramatic increase in GAS fees is attributed to the viral popularity of a slew of games emerging from online forums. While not as prejudicial to Ethereum transaction throughput as CryptoKitties, these new dApps have amassed over 26,000 transactions in 24 hours, causing GAS costs to double in price to $0.02.The spike in Ethereum dApp game interest has demonstrated the fragile nature of the Ethereum blockchain, illustrating the impact of a relatively small increase in transaction throughput on the capacity of the network. Ether Shrimp Farm, one of the most popular games causing network congestion, places players in control of a virtual shrimp farm with the goal of optimizing shrimp production, ultimately trading eggs for ETH. TIM is GPS united with blockchain. And this changes everything. It exponentially upgrades the performance of permission-less agents by a new consensus mechanism based on geomining. The dapps become hyperlocal and geo-location aware. This boosts security and experience. The MVP network, at BitPost, provides 100k+tps capabilities for token transactions, smart contracts, IOT array operations scalable to 100M tps. TIM network is automatically and dynamically managed by swarms and geo-mining for load distribution, fraud detection and network operations.
A multi-zone blockchain running on specialized proof of belongingness based swarm defense app mechanism. Along with standard dapps, TIM blockchain provides hyperlocal geo-fenced dapps for economical and performant system of utility dapps. The defense mechanism works by a swarm of community apps which are run through communities or organizations with special smart contract with TALKING Foundation for providing a useful service along with proof of location for geo-mining
The blockchain can handle all natural dapps like transaction, insurance, speculation, contracts etc. In addition to the above dapps, TIM can also host geo-fenced dapps which boosts the security and privacy.
TIM will have 8.5+ billion tokens and normal production rate of 5 tokens per second. The production rate will be regulated by foundation to match human population. The notion of matching human population is for promoting a philosophy of growth. The tokens will be rewarded in new blocks every 5 seconds. The token will be assigned over all the main network for winning nodes of each of the zones. Therefore, the rewarded tokens would be mostly fractional. This is called micro-distribution. The network will start with 2 billion pre-mined tokens. These reserved for various kinds of econometric agenda. The major share of pre-mined tokens is reserved for impact investments. 500 Million TIMs are reserved for Africa development through various entrepreneurship initiatives. 600 Million TIMs are similarly reserved for rest of the world. Apart from development expenses, a stability fund of 500 Million TIMs are reserved for helping crypto-currency growth initiatives or helping starved projects. Stability funds can also be used for merging desirable networks to increase development resources or defenses for the TIM.

TALKING.IM (TIM) is a multi-zone blockchain running on specialized proof of belongingness based swarm defense app mechanism. Along with standard dapps, TIM blockchain provides hyperlocal geo-fenced dapps for economical and performant system of utility dapps. The defense mechanism works by a swarm of community apps which are run through communities or organizations with special smart contract with TALKING Foundation for providing a useful service along with proof of location for geo-mining. Currently TALKING.IM blockchain is running logistics track & trace devices (IOT) for postal and logistics companies like Singapore Post, Alibaba and other. The foundation is also launching a swarm defense mechanism in form of blockchain taxi to provide server-less ride hailing service to benefit consumers, drivers and environment by eliminating billions of dollars of power consumed by servers of organizations like uber, ola, lyft, grab etc. Combined, these produce a general system which can be used for transacting values built with information and running decentralized applications along with IOT devises.
TIM exponentially improves the performance of permission-less agents, in consensus based trust environment with geo-mining based participation for an open, decentralized, secure and distributed network of devices to exchange information. The beta network provides 500 transactions per seconds with 5 seconds wait time, which will scale to 500,000 transactions in both main network as well as hyperlocal networks, by end of 2018. The full launch will be achieved in phases with capabilities for token transactions, smart contracts, and IOT array operations across all frequencies of the spectrum. TIM network is automatically and dynamically managed by public nodes and secured by swarm apps for load distribution, fraud detection and network operations.

The IC Exchange will work as a hybrid peer to peer exchange that will provide its users with a friendly graphical user interface (GUI) offering wide variety of tradable financial instruments offered by the complete IC Ecosystem. The Exchange links the following components of the Ecosystem:
        Front End: There is two main item, first one is IC Wallet  safeguarding the clients` digital assets, showing balances for crypto, fiat and traditional financial instruments. Second one is IC ICO Accelerator that is listing successful ICOs on the exchange at a discount.
Back End: IC Brokerage: performing the actual exchange between crypto/ fiat against traditional financial instruments.
IC Digital Bank: safeguarding clients fiat money (custodial account)
All participants will have actual accessible accounts in the Exchange, Brokerage, and Digital Bank in addition to their Wallet by completing a single KYC form.
Order Matching System : Members will trade using an online interface, either through a desktop application software provided by the IC Exchange or a web-based application. The IC Exchange will approve several software solutions from other platform providers and exchanges that can be used for trading. The trade at any online electronic exchange platform happens when the best buy order (order with highest bid price) is matched with the best sell order (order with lowest ask price) on price-time priority basis. However, before the order goes into the trading system of the exchange, it must comply with prerequisites of a valid order. Only valid orders are available for trade. The validity of an order is determined based on a set of trading parameters. The first is the order size; it should comply with a specified lot size or multiples of it. The second is the order matching by IC Exchange order book where buyer and seller are matched. The third is the verification of the member’s bank account. The fourth is the verification of the member’s brokerage account.
Also, the order will be permitted if the user of the terminal has permissible limits of trade as well as the permission to trade given by the respective member. The trading system gives tremendous flexibility to the trader to place orders as it is equipped to accept different types of orders. These can be as the following:
-Limit order: Enables the person giving the order to specify the price at which the trade is executed. Normally the limit order is below the market sell price in case of buy orders and above market buy quote in case of sell orders.
-Market Order: A type of order that gets traded at the prevailing price on or after submission. The best counter quote is treated as the order price. However, if there is no counter-quote available, then the last traded price is taken as the order price.
These types of orders are based on the flexibility of prices for the users. However, a user may also want flexibility in terms of time. This is defining the validity of an order from a time perspective. IC Exchange provides this type of flexibility. These can be used in the form of the following order types:
-Orders valid for a trading day: These are the orders that have a life for a trading day. The orders are active during the trading day unless they are cancelled by the user or executed by the system. At the end of the day, if the order has not been executed, then the order will be automatically cancelled by the IC Exchange system.
-Orders valid till a specific date: This type of order give the trader flexibility to choose a specific date up to which the order shall have its life. It implies that if as long as the order is not cancelled or gets manually executed by the user or automatically executed by the exchange system, the order will stay active in the system till the specified date.
-Orders valid till cancelled: The trader can give a permanent life to the order by using this privilege. This type of order stays alive in the system till they are cancelled. If they are not cancelled or they don’t get executed, they will always be active.
-Immediate or Cancel: It is also called as fill or kill order. This type of order does not remain pending. It is either executed or gets cancelled.
Liquidity/Full Order Book : IC Exchange will have a full order book directly connected with major crypto exchanges and global markets. The full order book provides the necessary liquidity to instantly buy and sell crypto pairs with the tightest spreads, which ensures significant volume of transactions from day one. Liquidity will be ensured by linking exchange books under the IC Exchange umbrella. Meanwhile, the IC Brokerage’s order book will be linked to the actual traditional exchanges such as CME, NASDAQ and others in order to insure execution at the most efficient price without any additional cost by intermediaries.

IC Exchange utilizes liquidity pools to reduce time, cost, and deficiencies. Today, investors would have to go through a long and costly process to trade; If the Investor has shares and wishes to buy a cryptocurrency, the investor must first sell his shares with his broker and liquidate the value of the shares in fiat then wait for settlement to wire transfer the money. After receiving the fiat value of the shares in his bank account, the investor must buy the desired cryptocurrency from his preferred exchange after registering and going through a lengthy verification time, that is of course is if the buyer’s bank allows transferring funds to crypto websites or platforms.
Furthermore, most platforms have a daily limit and high fees to buy crypto assets. The whole latter process will have different time and cost constraints as well as different pricing and availability for different investors. The reason behind the constraints and the restrictions is the fact that in almost all scenarios, the Brokerage, Bank and Exchange charge fees and that they are separate entities with intermediaries between them charging even more fees and lengthening the process. The same transaction could be done under the IC Ecosystem without having to go through that process.
Order Routing: In order to provide the highest liquidity standards, the order execution process might be extended to two or three levels to ensure that the trade will be executed in an efficient and timely manner. Whereas a client’s request to buy AAPL against Bitcoin (APPL/BTC) could be executed at two levels, the first selling Bitcoin against fiat (BTC/USD) and the second will be buying Apple against USD (AAPL/USD). This whole process will be done automatically without any human intervention. The trading of cryptocurrencies in the IC exchange will consist of a three-level process:  Step 1: Order Placing: The IC users will place their market or limit orders on the IC Exchange Platform based on the current best prices shown on the IC Exchange. Step 2: Order Matching: The IC Exchange order book connects the buyers and the sellers when the best buy order (order with highest bid price) is matched with the best sell order (order with lowest offer price) on price-time priority basis. Step 3: Order Delivery: The order delivery adapts to the type of order; direct trading orders involving only cryptocurrencies will transfer value from the seller’s IC Wallet to the buyer’s IC Wallet without interference by third parties, whereas the active components delivering the order are the users’ IC Wallets, while the IC Exchange is using the order matching system to connect the buyer and seller users together. The Ecosystem utilizes all the different components to provide the participants with seamless delivery in crypto, fiat, and traditional instruments.

Coin Listing Platform: INGOT will use the Distributed Ledger Platform Asset Issuance Module which will provide its Ecosystem participants with an environment to list their newly issued coins and pair them against fiat and other available cryptocurrencies.

As e-commerce evolved, so did all supporting systems, including inventory management, affiliate marketing, delivery and fulfillment, and buyer and seller reviews. But what we’re seeing now is a stagnation in this natural development caused by the formation of oligopolies of the prevailing legacy marketplaces. In other words, the top ten e-commerce companies in the US leverage their data reach and operational infrastructures to prevent newcomers from gaining traction.As the e-commerce system stands today, sellers must switch between different marketplaces in order to update their inventory, which consumes precious time and resources. Spl.yt powers a revamped e-commerce system that enables inventory to be updated automatically across different marketplaces — no more accidental double-selling items that can jeopardize your reputation.
“Affiliate Marketers” Is this you?
Affiliate marketing describes the system of cross-marketing and cross-promotion that occurs throughout the sale of a product in e-commerce. (This is a highly influential market currently contributing 16% of all US e-commerce sales with an estimated growth rate of 10% annually to $6.8B in 2020.) Affiliate marketing commissions are paid on a “per-click,” “per-signup,” or “per-sale” basis, but keeping track of these payments are often problematic without a trustworthy tracking mechanism.
The Spl.yt protocol uses “smart contracts” to automate payments to affiliate marketers. This data is then recorded on the permanent blockchain ledger so that if a disagreement between parties were to arise, an automated resolution pact would be triggered. The requirement of economic investment deters potential scammers and rewards honest behavior. When disputes are settled swiftly, it saves all sides time and resources.

Dropshippers: The unsung heroes of retail.
An estimated $93B of sales are lost each year due to hiccups in “dropshipping.” While that might not be a term you’re familiar with, it’s almost certainly a service you’ve used. A dropshipper is a third party used by a retailer to stock, process, and ship orders directly to the customer. Most retailers never set eyes on your online purchases — it’s the dropshippers who get you your purchases.
The most common problem for dropshippers is managing their inventory across several marketplaces. They must ensure that, if an item is out of stock, every marketplace they list on reflects this, again wasting time and money. Thanks to the automated inventory updates enabled by the Spl.yt protocol, Spl.yt is able to neutralize inventory inefficiencies for dropshippers potentially saving our economy the $93B of sales lost each year.
Is your online reputation important to you?
Shoppers are only comfortable purchasing products from unknown vendors when the seller proves to have a solid reputation score from other buyers. Review systems establishes “trust” in otherwise anonymous entities in the online universe, but require additional time and resources. When sellers maintain separate reputation scores across different marketplaces, the information is not only unreliable, but also consumes additional time and money.
Spl.yt’s smart contract-based protocol can be leveraged to sync reputation scores across multiple marketplaces. Simply put, when a seller is connected to Spl.yt, their inventories and reputations will be available and visible across marketplaces with no extra time or money required.
So what does e-commerce revamped look like?
Spl.yt’s protocol renders the processes for inventory updates, affiliate marketing, dropshipping, reputation, and other e-commerce systems more efficient by automating functions now performed by middlemen. Look to Spl.yt if you would prefer the future of e-commerce should provide the market reach of Alibaba, with the assurance of Amazon, at the prices of Craigslist.

Today, as TV and video viewing habits change in every country, there is uncertainty and confusion about how to monetize viewers’ time and attention. Television companies don’t know what to charge for it and advertisers don’t know what to pay for it.
