Thanks.  I've spent the last year working on the website and demo app.

1.  I was hoping that people on here would test the app and in the process create parking spaces where they are located.
2.  I'm currently looking at some stack-based scripting languages that can be used for the Bitcoin blockchain.
3.  Binance Smart Chain has crossed my mind as it is a fork of Ethereum and I know how to write solidity smart contracts that I could use with Binance Smart Chain.

The benefits of ParkCryption are:

Free to Use
ParkCryption is free to use and payment transaction fees are almost zero for parking anywhere in the world unlike the competition who are associated with multiple fees: for using their parking software, fiat card transaction fees and cross-border fiat currency conversion fees when parking in a country where you do not have a credit or debit card.

Security and Privacy
ParkCryption uses Two Factor Authentication (2FA) to provide an extra layer of security beyond passwords and usernames.

Global Currency
The ParkCryption PARK token is based on cryptocurrency/blockchain technology, allowing users to provide and use parking services without the restrictions of cross-border bank fees and fiat currencies.

Smart Contracts
PARK tokens use Blockchain Smart Contracts to make payment only when the customer's vehicle has been recorded through GPS as having been parked at a designated parking spot for the reserved amount of time, which protects parking space users and parking space providers from fraud.

Automated Payments
No unjust credit card or PayPal chargebacks. The detection of the vehicle allows the Smart Contract to automatically transfer PARK tokens to the parking space provider once the parking space has been released.

Data Science Enhanced Functionality
With enough data crunching, features such as "AutoPark" will be possible - the ParkCryption system will recommend suitable parking places to customers as they drive into a town or city based on customer preferences, previous parking choices, real time updates about parking availability, and even their current destination.

"in what way  your app will gather their coordinates to be fed into the database" - I use JavaScript to get the longitude/latitude coordinates from the user's mobile phone and then call a Web API to update the cloud database.

Thank you for your positive comments.  I appreciate your feedback.  

Theb,
Yes this demo version only has a few parking spots at the moment which were added by me for app testing purposes.  

I need to add more to the roadmap now that I have a demo app version such as finding parking providers and parking space users.  I also like the idea of a page dedicated to interested operators/parking lot owners who want to take part in the project.

bitmover,
My initial idea was to add BTC payments but I also wanted to use smart contracts that process the crypto transaction once the user has parked at the parking spot for the reserved amount of time.  I knew that Ethereum smart contracts could be used for this functionality but could not find any technical info on doing smart contracts with the BTC blockchain but found https://cashscript.org/ smart contracts for Bitcoin Cash blockchain.  

I need to work out how to implement BTC with C# and/or JavaScript and add it to my project for paying for parking spaces and donating to the project.  Do you have any advice on code libraries or software projects that I could look at to get a head start on implementing BTC payments into my app or interfacing with a mobile wallet app?

SFR10,
"We could only pay directly using Park tokens in the app" - I have been focused on the concept of smart contracts to take a future payment for a parking reservation.  This is why I posted to this forum to get other people's input as when you are working in isolation its easy to get too focused on a particular train of thought when developing the software.

"only when the user’s vehicle has been recorded using satellite coordinates as been parked at a designated parking spot for the reserved amount of time" - The user's mobile phone would be used to provide the GPS coordinate checks while the Parkcryption app is being used to direct the user to the parking space.  I was planning on writing code as a service for the Parkcryption app that monitors time spent along with GPS coordinates to track the parking contract which then interfaces with the blockchain smart contract to trigger off the parking contract transaction process.

I've designed and developed a progressive web app (click ‘Demo App’ button on parkcryption.co.uk).

The app allows people to find parking spaces anywhere in the world and pay for parking using newly created BCH/SLP and ERC20 PARK tokens.

My skills are software dev but not social media marketing.  I am looking for project partners to help me to raise awareness of the ParkCryption app.

The project is in bootstrap mode at the moment with me as the only team member and the demo app allows people to get a feel for the project and application functionality.

Please drop me a message if you find my project interesting and would like to get involved in the project.

newbie question:

What would be the best option to create a new coin?

Use bitcoin source code as a starting place or ethereum source code or something else?

whether to 100% premine a coin/token to avoid the transaction costs and slow transfer speeds associated with mining?

what is the most secure option against hacking attempts?
