[ANN] [ICO] (CED) CEDEX 1st Ever certified blockchain diamond exchange

[cedex.community]

you mean you will collect 100k eth in the crowd sale, thats really a huge number, and i think its too much for your project

What we actually said was  With the rising cost of ETH it may be set lower by the time the sale begins.

Following this thread. Looks like an interesting project.

Saw the youtube video and the plan sounds nice.
Going read the whitepaper soon and will be back if i have questions about this project.


What i understand from the video is that on the cedex decentralized platform everyone could buy and sell diamonds, but to buy and sell people should use the special created token for the platform which we can purchased during the ICO.

Don't you think you create an bridge on the platform by using the token only?
I mean that people first need to deposit fiat/btc/eth to some place and than exchange it for the token and after that it is tradeable for diamonds.

did anyone ever mentioned that your name looked a lot like c-cex? if i didnt look carefully i thought it was c-cex, and why c-cex and having token sales here.

I couldn't find anywhere if there is a soft cap or a hard cap or if the unsold tokens will be burned. Is there any information regarding this?

Originally the hard cap was set at 100,000 ETH.  With the rising cost of ETH it may be set lower by the time the sale begins.  We will keep you posted.   

From what I see this is a kind of asset backed token. Am I correctly understanding the cedex token?

No, the CEDEX token is not asset backed, that would be the D-Token which represents a diamond. The CEDEX token is used as currency on the platform to pay for services or diamonds.

I see, thanks for the clarification. Is the CEDEX token a exclusive currency to pay for these things, is it offered as an option alongside crypto or fiat?

It is the only currency you can buy the D tokens with, and they are the diamonds.

Interesting project for you. And Bounty probably is available. I regret that the rank is too low for me to participate.

[saltox]

Great concept. I really like it. Any ideas as to what exchanges you expect the token will be traded on?

Good luck!

[cedex.community]

That list will be made public when the ICO is completed.

Do you have agreemennts with some diamond company or fabric? And why people will sell diamond for you tokens? There are very big volatility

Do you have any experience in projects like this?

No one has experience with a certified blockchain diamond exchange yet, we intend to be the first. However, the Cedex team does have extensive Diamond industry knowledge and experience. CEDEX wants to engineer a ground-breaking change – enabling people to liquidate and invest in diamonds like any other financial asset, in a transparent and secure way. Volatility is not just an issue in crypto, it's in global market fiat as well. Certainly it's been a considerable challenge to establish fungibility for diamonds and allow uniform trading. The CEDEX platform solves this problem by applying the DEX algorithm and creating a smart-contract Token that represents a gemologically validated asset. It is then possible to apply innovative trading mechanisms employing blockchain-based Tokens, such as category trading, short selling or ETF trading, to the diamond industry. We stress that these mechanisms are not a complete set. In the future, more diamond-trading mechanisms will be developed with blockchain-based tokenization of diamonds being the technological enabler.

What extensive you have in diamond industry? You working in related niche before? And what about partnership?

A token that can be use to buy Diamond in the cedex exchange, is this really achievable? i mean diamond are really expensive not just something you come across easily, and since diamond are expensive i wonder how this transaction will be possible, beside is it legal, is the project available to all country or limited to certain countries. Great concept though.

Hi Cardo,
Let me answer your question.
First of all, there are different types of diamonds and every diamond is unique. Diamond prices can start from few hundred USD and reach prices of hundreds million dollars (unique and rare diamonds)

Regards the trading at our platform:
CEDEX Coin holders will be able to use their tokens once the sale is completed and tokens are distributed.Tokens will be used for the following services:
To certify diamonds in gemological labs
For secure and insured transportation services for the tokenized diamonds
For insurance services
For custodian services -Allowing the diamond holder to keep assets at the custodian.
Once the CEDEX Platform is up and running, Tokens will be used in the following ways:
Traders who want to purchase diamonds via Diamond-Smart Contract on the CEDEX platform will have to purchase CEDEX Coin to carry out their transactions.
Payment to and for all service providers, such as the gemological labs, custodian, insurance and transportation will only be done using CEDEX Coin.
Later, once additional financial products are developed, traders opening a short position will use CEDEX Coin to cover the collateral and borrowing fees.
Traders will be able to use their portfolios as collateral to receive CEDEX Coin loans.
Purchasing diamond derivatives.
