Do enlightening me more. Thanks.
Hi FunnyAttitude,
We will not represent the other blockchain projects that issue their own tokens to be used on their platform as your question concerns every such platform. The purpose of our token issuance is four-fold, let us try our best to explain:
1. We are using the ICO to raise our development fund.
2. By introducing our own token, we can create various token reward programs that will help develop, expand and improve our platform including but not limited to rewarding activities helping develop our AI Database or improving our platform, products and services on our platform. Also we can introduce various discount (like the 50%-off when purchasing our AI products) programs to not only promote our products, but also incentivize the usage of tokens on our platform.
3. By introducing our own token, we can set up the GoGreenFund which is endowing not cash-based scholarships, but our-token-based scholarships, and recipients who have financial difficulties can use them to buy products and services on our platform; hence contributing to equal learning chances.
4. We created an innovative Embedded Put Option through which we intend to incentivize the holding of our tokens and hence stabilize the value of our tokens. How this works? We will fix the value of our tokens when purchasing AI products at Max[token ICO end value, token current market value] So by this formula, the token value when purchasing AI products won't drop below the token ICO end value even if the token's market value drops below the ICO end value. This option combined with our 50% discount for token transactions of AI products will keep the token value when purchasing AI products always above twice as high as the token's market value. This is a bit complicated and for actual example, please visit our webpage's FAQ.
So as you can see these measures wouldn't have been possible without issuing our own token and that's why we chose blockchain and to leverage its token mechanism. Thanks for the great question^^
Best,
