Karatcoin Features
No Geo-Restrictions
There are no geo-restrictions, once the gold has been turned into crypto-gold, you can redeem it in any country*. Costs related to transport and related taxes are minimized by leaving the raw material in its place of origin.
Store Physical Gold
You can safely store Physical Gold asset in vault and keep it as Gold Certificates in your wallet on the Karat Blockchain, the gold is safe from political influence and will preserve and increase its value over time.
DPoS Consensus
Fees will be used as returns for stakeholders instead of miners. This means a faster validation block time (10 secs), less power consumption and more security.
Backed by a Real Asset
Karatcoin is less volatile than other crypto-currencies because it’s indirectly linked to a real asset with an owned blockchain.
Earn Fixed Revenue
Gold Certificates are safe investments. Our Certificate gives you 2 half-yearly coupons with up to 6% interest.
Gold Mines Profits
Vote for the gold mines to be financed and participate to the active interests that will be perceived from funding given to the selected mines.

A decentralized application
to
buy and sell gold.
Our goal is to build a platform to trade gold certificates, exchange Karatcoin tokens, as well as save and exchange currency using gold cards.
Our team is up to build a secure, useful, & easy-to-use product based on private blockchain on top of EOS technology. It will include easy cryptocurrency payments integration, and even a digital arbitration system.
At the end, Our aims to integrate all refineries, gold companies, and business assets into a unified blockchain ecosystem, which will make business truly efficient, transparent, and reliable.

DPoS Consensus.
Karat Blockchain uses DPoS consensus (Delegated Proof of Stake) that allows for better performance, and less power consumption than any other blockchain consensus.
Karatcoin uses the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) consensus for quality control efficiency. DPoS allows delegated block producers and voters to sustain the network for content distribution.
The delegates are in charge of validating transactions and relaying blocks. Voters can also monitor the uptime to ensure participation in block propagation. Delegates that get “voted out” no longer receive rewards and voters are incented to participate by receiving a part of the rewards.

Documents Immutability.
All transitions are stored in a public ledger inside the Karat Blockchain, and all asset documents are stored as images in the IPFS (Interplanetary File System) to guarantee their immutability (thus giving everyone the opportunity to check and verify them).
Files uploaded on an IPFS server are permanent due to their unique identifier but become persistent once the files are shared over the network and are kept in use through pinning.
OUR PRODUCTS
Our products will be available in a marketplace developed inside our blockchain, and it will also be the first to have a comprehensive product portfolio along a DPoS consensus that will allow a triple advantage in validation speed, safety, and rewards for cryptocurrency holders.

Helping to Build
A Better World

"Working conditions are very poor, as production systems are generally obsolete and inadequate"

"Many children work with their parents in such activities as extraction, hauling ore, crushing and grinding the ore, and mercury amalgamation"

"The work done by children varies according to the type of mine from which ore is being extracted"

"In the worst cases, children are being held in slavery-like conditions"

"These children perform all sorts of low-skilled tasks, including amalgamating the gold using mercury"

"Poor living and working conditions mean that all young children are exposed to infections and diseases"

"Unclean water and lack of sanitation and complicated by malnutrition, malaria, meningitis, measles, tuberculosis..."

"Children in these areas are out of reach of international relief organizations and continue to risk being recruited into militias or forced to work in mines"

"In addition to being exposed to mercury, children face various other health problems, kidney and urinary tract diseases..."

"Children extract soil in a murky environment with zero visibility wearing crude eye masks and breathing oxygen from a tube with the help of a compressor"

GENERAL INFORMATION
Karatcoin allows open and public authentication of all asset documents stored in a decentralized database through our Proof of Asset (PoA), a protocol designed within the EOS Blockchain by integrating the IPFS (Inter Planetary Files System) to trace the entire authentication path through its chain of custody.
There's no date set yet but as you can view from our roadmap is already programmed for the 3rd quarter of 2018 after a successful presale.

KTC is a cryptocurrency digital gold. Crypto value that is secure from political influence and will preserve and increase its value over time. KC is also a fast and comfortable means of payment with a worldwide scope, and it's private and anonymous enough to serve as a means of payment for several markets and any other economic activity. •Offered Token exchange ratio: 1 KCD=0.1 U.S. dollars •KCG (GOLD Token) is a stable crypto-asset that represents 1 gram of 99.99% LBMA standard gold secured in Safehouse Vaults; the gold is safe from political influence and will preserve and increase its value over time.
Each Gold Asset Certificate represents $1,000.00 of value. The duration was determined as follows: • One year and the return is an annual rate of 5%; • Two years and the return is an annual rate of 5,25%; • Three years and the return is an annual rate of 5,50%; • Four years and the return is an annual rate of 5,75%; • Five years and the return is an annual rate of 6% . Advantages • The rates will be paid every six months until maturity date of certificates; • Gold Certificates and Coupons refer to unallocated asset; • No Gold Asset storage fees applied; • All certificates hold in a Cold Storage Wallet, when the certificates mature they can be redeemed.
Proof of Assets (PoA) is a scheme designed to let entities (operators) prove they control a given amount of asset certificates blockchain based. The PoA Asset consists of the following information permanently uploaded onto the decentralized database (the Blockchain): •SKU of the Gold Bar made by the Authorized Vault; •Bar Serial Number made by Refinery; •Chain of Custody Digital Signatures (the Gold Mining Company, Custodian, Auditor); •Audit Documentation; •Depository Receipt made by the Authorized Vault; •Certificate creation; •Time stamp of Certificate creation; •Certificate Signature; •Certificate serial number.
It's one of the best things about our project. Let's assume you buy a Gold Certificate: Gold Asset Certificates and Coupons GOLD ASSET CERTIFICATE VALUE USD 1,000.00=ETH 2,1568923495 REVENUE FROM INTERESTS MATURED Nr. 2 SIX MONTHS COUPONS=50$ If the cross-pair ETH/USD rise up 1 YEAR REDEMPTION CERTIFICATE $ 500,00 x ETH 2.00=$ 1,000 Instead if ETH/USD goes down 1 YEAR REDEMPTION CERTIFICATE $ 100.00 x ETH 10.00=$ 1,000 This means a STABILITY VALUE: KARATCOIN GOLD CERTIFICATE $ 1,050.00
Physical gold asset is stored in the global refinery vault, after buying it you will receive a document certifying it.
• Real savings account; • Coupon every six months with good interest rates; • Decentralize the wallet: Gold + Cryptocurrency; • Protect the investment with high value stability*: Gold + Dollar.
• Send and receive gold as payment; • Start from 1 gram to rise in line with the investment; • Gold can be redeemed by users on the blockchain; • The minimum investment will be 50,00$ and therefore accessible to everyone.
