I like the concept of this project and what you're trying to achieve but I'm a bit confused at the same time. If any of you that have been a part of this project for a while could answer these questions I would very much appreciate it.
Firstly, I don't quite understand where the Darcrus token gets it value from. From what I read in the white paper businesses will have to pay tx fees using Darcrus to use the public blockchain. Will holders of the token get a percentage of the TX fees when people use the public blockchain (Like PoS coins)? If not where do these fees go?
Also could you please elaborate on how the buy back and burn system works, what happens when these coins get to a low supply over the years? If businesses need these tokens to pay for transactions fees on the public blockchain, won't it eventually get to the point when the tokens become too expensive for them to buy to make it worthwhile?
Finally, what is the link between Mercury & Darcrus?
Sorry for asking so many questions but you seem to have quite an interesting project going on here so I'd like to try and attempt to understand it better.

-Firstly, I don't quite understand where the Darcrus token gets it value from.
The Darcrus ICO raised the funds to start Sigwo Technologies. Now Darcrus can be seen as a token representing the value of Sigwo Technologies. 10% of net profits of Sigwo Technologies will be used to buy back and burn Darcrus from the market. (

-From what I read in the white paper businesses will have to pay tx fees using Darcrus to use the public blockchain.
There are no fees paid in Darcrus buy the businesses. They pay in fiat for the use of Jupiter, the actual software platform.
-Will holders of the token get a percentage of the TX fees when people use the public blockchain (Like PoS coins)? If not where do these fees go?
No, there are no fees paid in Darcrus.

Invalid question due to no Darcrus tokens being used as fees.
-Finally, what is the link between Mercury & Darcrus?
One of the products of Sigwo Technologies is to provide a private blockchain for its clients, called Jupiter. There are various fully customizable software packages available for different needs to protect, encrypt and store data on the Jupiter blockchain. However, because it is a private blockchain people could accuse insiders to have modified the data. This is where Mercury shows up. This Waves asset is used to connect the private chain with the public Waves blockchain. Every blockhash of the private blockchain is automatically timestamped to the public one, with Mercury used as transaction fee. This timestamp is used as the public prove nobody modified the data.
So to recap, the power of the Mercury token is its cross-chain capability and the dual-chain provenance for the products being sold. This all results in a continuous circle, because the company needs to buy MER for the dual-chain provenance, miners accept this as fee and may sell it on the market again.

I hope this clears things up a bit.
