arium 2.0 - decentralized, automatic, and free e-commerce app for Ethereum

[arium-gregory]

arium 2.0 is a decentralized app for the Ethereum network that enables automatic and free international e-commerce. Sellers simply prepare their products for shipping, register their product info in their local language, then sit back as revenue comes in automatically.

The information is automatically sent to human translators, sponsors are automatically found who are paid to advertise the product on their YouTube channel, etc. and sales are generated automatically. When a purchase is made, the shipping company is notified automatically, and when the delivery is signed for, payment is automatically transferred. For more information, please read the arium 2.0 Technical White Paper.

Hi I'm Gregory Snelgar, cryptoeconomic analyst for the arium 2.0 project at Special and Pleasant PTE LTD. I graduated from Auckland University with a degree in macroeconomic theory and international finance. I pursued independent programming studies since I was 8 years old and I am proficient in the BASIC programming language. From 2001 I have studied and participated in decentralized product distribution networks such as BitTorrent. I have been interested in cryptography and the social implications of blockchain technology since the Bitcoin whitepaper was released in 2008. I am a published author on topics ranging from quantum mechanics to comparative sociology, and I am currently writing a book on cryptoeconomics titled "Blockchain and You".

Interesting project that can be useful for everybody in the world without language barrier.  I hope there will be more and more e-commerce application for etherum and other coins so their aim as a medium of exchange became reality and will increase the adoption of cryptocurrencies all over the world.

[arium-gregory]

Thanks cityhall. Yes it our goal not only to provide simple e-commerce selling for everyone with language barriers using our ARM coin, but also indirectly to increase the popularity of cryptocurrencies in general.

Which country is your headquarters in?

[arium-gregory]

Our head office is in Singapore.

[James Sunderland]

Are you selling tokens in the USA?

[arium-gregory]

Unfortunately we do not allow token purchases to United States persons, nor to Japanese buyers.

[Sam Edwards]

Which countries are you selling to?

[KeijiN]

I've heard that one of the most successful ICO areas in 2018 is the blockchain services, so I think that you will have a success because it is really good to have new services provided.

[arium-gregory]

All other countries besides the United States and Japan.

currently seeing a lot of exchange popping up but when it is running there is no volume available on the exchange, what is this problem whether this gives us something we don't want.

[arium-gregory]

Thanks for your message mugawati. I recommend using well-established exchanges with a lot of volume. Personally, I use the decentralized exchange airswap, because they have many different coins and zero fees. Our project is not an exchange, by the way. It is an e-commerce platform like Amazon or Alibaba.

[Sam Edwards]

What does the arium platform do? And how are the tokens used?

[arium-gregory]

arium is an e-commerce platform that competes directly with Amazon and Alibaba. While those sites take a 40% commission on sales, our platform is completely free, so the money the seller gets is the money the buyer pays. The seller can choose to pay commissions to translators and affiliate marketers to increase their sales volume around the world and maximize revenue.

[Sam Edwards]

Oh, nice! And excuse me but why does it have to be a blockchain?

[arium-gregory]

The blockchain allows for trustless and automatic operation, in terms of translation, marketing, shipping and payment processing.

[Sam Edwards]

Really? You mean everything is automatic?
