So meaning the weekly task is still on going? need to comply the minimum requirements for the constructive post. By the way may I know why velix.id has been extended? Thank you so much

Tokens VXD will be used as a trading currency?

Big organization like Equifax has faced the challenges of data-breach. The centralized way of saving data has always been vulnerable to data theft.

The credit reporting bureau admitted that a far more extensive assortment of data was “accessed” by hackers last year than previously acknowledged — but insisted not all of that info on 145.5 million Americans was actually stolen, according to a Jan. 2 letter it sent to Sen. Elizabeth Warren.

The company’s list of “accessed” data, obtained by The Post, includes:

-passport numbers
-Social Security numbers
 -first, last, and middle names and suffixes
-gender
-home addresses and phone numbers
-driver’s license numbers, including the date the license was issued and the state issuing them
 -date of birth
-credit card numbers, their expiration date and “CV2” security numbers
 -tax ID numbers
-email addresses

Velix ID is the decentralized frictionless identity verification platform, where we NEVER keep your data with us thus making your identity more secure and invulnerable.

Yes we had a lot of time to strategize and improve our way of functioning to attract more investors and we are sure that our token sale in April will be a hit.

True would have many are looking forward to the ico on this project soon underway again and hope the more who support this project.

Hopefully with the pause time like this makes the team better prepare its strategy again to attract more investors to join in this project.

There is a pause of time on this project and will begin again in April. Hopefully, more and more participants who follow the project and could go according to plan.

Velix.ID is glad to announce that the VXD token sale will resume on April 17, 2018. The token sale will last a total of 4 weeks, and end on May 15, 2018, or when the 50 Million tokens allotted to the initial token sale are sold out — whichever is earlier.

The token sale had to be paused earlier —after raising 1.4 Million USD— as we needed our time to ensure the security & integrity of our platform and the protect the interests of our investors & community. During the time that we took, a lot of things were thought over, and rampant changes were made to our methodology and structure.

The major change made to the token sale structure is the omission of keeping any minimum slabs for the investments. Instead of keeping different rounds of sales, we have decided to conduct the rest of our token sale in one single phase with varying bonus rates depending upon the amount the investor wants to invest.

The bonus slabs for the Velix.ID token sale are as follows:
Amount Invested           Bonus Tokens
<0.1 ETH                                0%
0.1 ETH-0.5 ETH                      5%
0.5 ETH-1 ETH                        10%
1 ETH-5 ETH                           20%
5 ETH-10 ETH                         30%
10 ETH-50 ETH                       40%


Other than the standard bonuses offered on the investments, there’re also two special discounts that will exist:

PowerUp: During the first 24 hours of the token sale, there will be an added bonus of 5% VXD tokens on all purchases made within this timeframe, for all Users on the Velix.ID platform. The PowerUp bonus will also be available for the first 24 hours of a new User signing up on the Velix.ID token sale platform.

PowerHour: Velix.ID will announce 2 power hours per week for the entire period of the token sale. There will be an added bonus of 5%  VXD tokens for these periods that will each last 60 minutes. The exact time at which these power hours start will be decided by voting through the community members, and will be announced 24 hours in advance before the Power Hour starts.

The method of participating in the token sale remains the same. The users can sign up on account.velix.id, and create an account — either by entering their information, or using Google or Facebook to sign up.

The Users will have an option to pay in a Cryptocurrency of their choice out of multiple options available. The Users will have to ensure that they are entering a correct ERC-20 compatible Ethereum Wallet Address, where the tokens equivalent to the purchase made will be sent within 24 hours.

Identity Theft and Fraud are definitely one the biggest global challenges right now.

Some 15.4 million consumers were victims of identity theft or fraud last year, according to a new report from Javelin Strategy & Research. That's up 16 percent from 2015, and the highest figure recorded since the firm began tracking fraud instances in 2004.

"All of the underlying types of fraud we measure are up," said Al Pascual, a senior vice president and research director for Javelin.

Card-not-present fraud — transactions made online or via phone where the cardholder does not need to present the physical card to complete the purchase — jumped the most, increasing 40 percent compared to 2015. Account takeover fraud — where thieves used stolen login information to access a consumer's accounts — rose 31 percent, and instances where fraudsters opened new accounts in a consumer's name were up 20 percent.

In all, thieves stole $16 billion, the report found — nearly $1 billion more than in 2015.

The cryptocurrency world is one of the spheres of business that is among the hardest to grasp, even for the so-called experts in the industry. As at the time of writing this piece there are over 1500 distinct products, coins and tokens, each with its peculiar features and backing technology, and each purporting to solve one problem or the other.

Among the biggest sources of mystery for the general public is what makes a cryptocurrency the likes of Bitcoin, Litecoin and Dash and what makes a utility token, this is what we will be covering in this piece.


A typical cryptocurrency, which Bitcoin is the first among, is a decentralized digital currency that is built to specifically serve the purpose of being an alternative means of exchange for goods and services that does not require the service of a bank or any other kind of middleman. A crypto coin is a dedicated currency that serves no other purpose and which does not represent shares of any kind of entity.

A Utility Token on the other side is a digital asset that is often also misconceived as a typical cryptocurrency. A utility token serves as an access asset with which an individual can enjoy the services of a particular platform that is also built on the blockchain technology. Unlike coins, utility tokens differ widely in their purpose and usage, as the different platforms offer different services and different modes with which their tokens operate. From paying for energy bills to accessing dental care, utility tokens have a more limited scope of use as they operate mostly within a specific niche, unlike coins like Bitcoin which are universally accepted across the cryptocurrency industry, and the mainstream businesses that accept the digital assets for payment.


Niche of Operation: A utility token as earlier explained works within a certain niche, in order to pay for the services within such a field. Utility tokens usually gain value as a sub-currency in the cryptocurrency market depending on the size of the niche they cater for. Blockchain platforms that operate in decentralized marketplaces the likes of Amazon, for example, have a huge potential, as customers can get discounts by using their tokens to pay for services or charges instead of using the mainstay coins like Bitcoin

Exchangeability: Another important factor that determines the rise in the value of a utility ten is the ability of its holders to exchange it for another cryptocurrency or sell it off entirely for fiat currency. The more fluid a utility token, the more likely it is that its value appreciates with time.

Scarcity: This is an important principle that has a big effect on the rise in the value of any utility token. The general trend is that the scarcer a token is, the more likely it is that it will gain in value. Tokens that come in inordinate numbers often get any appreciation in their value mostly diluted, while those that are relatively scarce and are finite in their nature often gain value faster and have a greater chance of retaining such value.

Identity theft is a multi-billion dollar industry a year, with whole marketplaces for it on the sinister dark parts of the internet. In search of solutions, companies such as Velix.ID have settled on the blockchain technology as the silver bullet that will rid us of the scourge of unsafe online identities. So what makes the blockchain technology such a perfect weapon for this industry? Here are some very important reasons:

Security: The whole essence of any industry that will come up to tackle online identity theft is to ensure maximum security. Since the beginning of invention, there has been no single technology that is manmade which defies being hacked or sabotaged by a fellow human being, well, that is until the creation of the blockchain technology. This revolutionary tech which was debuted by Bitcoin has so far proved beyond the capacity of any hacker, group of hackers or even governments to sabotage, or shut down. This all-powerful technology with its legendary incorruptibility is the best chance we all have of bringing sanity to our online identities, a solution that ensures maximum control without invoking fear or stress in us as we go about our daily transactions with businesses around the world.

Accessibility: No matter how good a technology or solution to a problem is, all is for-naught unless it is made accessible to the average human being. The blockchain technology is the ultimate solution when it comes to accessibility. The decentralization of services which the blockchain technology is built with (on its replicated incorruptible public ledger), will ensure that users have constant and instant access to their data whenever they wish. With no single point of failure, the blockchain technology in simple terms will never go offline, which is important for any store of sensitive data.

Affordability: When it comes to providing solutions that are ahead of time and extremely affordable, the blockchain technology with its cryptocurrency applications prove beyond what any centralized systems can offer users. Online identity verification problem is a crisis that affects every single internet user and as such, making its solution universally affordable is very vital. The blockchain technology is the first tech to make an international transfer of money in micro amounts both efficient and affordable. And with the likes of Velix ID in the field of identity verification, the same affordability looks certain t be achieved in this industry as well.

The blockchain technology is one of the most versatile creations of mankind. From the Internet of Things (IoT) to Artificial Intelligence, this century looks set to be defined by a greater standard of accountability and security for internet users, spurred-on by this intriguing (blockchain) technology. Online Identity verification is set to be redefined, and Velix ID with the blockchain technology in its armor looks set to be among the stars of this new industry.

Over half of the population of the human race is connected to the internet, billions are very active on social media posting every aspect of their daily lives, from the food they eat to the clubs they go to unwind after a stressful week. Our lives as a people are increasingly dominated by our online presence and the identity we carve out for ourselves there. But is there any actual value to our identities online, apart from the personal info that we often put up there? Will all a breach of our identity online cost us be a scandal or does it have an actual worth in dollars and cents?

Asking the experts in this field, and well almost anyone who has had real tangible personal data stolen before, they will tell you the true cost of identity theft. This is an industry that is worth tens of billions of dollars every year. Online hackers and other pariah-state sponsored criminals are on the prowl every day honing new sophisticated skills in order to get to your digital data. The rise of the dark web, a sinister part of the internet where all illegal activity like child porn, drug, and weapon sales goes on without restriction has now ensured that online criminals now have a ready market to sell off their stolen merchandise and make actual money from it without having to actually use it.

A Credit Card Info Marketplace

On the dark web, there full-fledged international credit card data marketplaces where criminals and their collaborators transact, usually using untraceable means of exchange to sell your stolen credit card data as well as other sensitive info like SSN, and even your home address.Your online identity with which your sensitive financial instruments can be actuated can and will cost you in the thousands of dollars if you don’t take the appropriate measures to protect yourself. What’s so terrifying about online data theft is that even giants like Yahoo whom we trust to keep our data safe are no longer as airtight as we thought they were. The internet giant has been breached time and again as its latest data breach has cost the company billions of dollars in compensation as well as further security upgrade costs, not to talk of the trust it is fast losing from its users.

The Velix.ID Way

Velix.ID is a revolutionary platform that leverages on the incorruptibility of the blockchain technology to deliver what will be the world’s safest and most convenient identity protection service. The way Velix.ID does protect your online identity is that once your online ID is uploaded on the blockchain, you can be sure of two things. One that your data can never be duplicated by anyone to be used, posing as yourself, and two; no one will have actual access to the data without you’re your explicit consent. Velix.ID is the platform that comes with the complete and affordable solution to the nightmare that the internet is fast becoming when it comes to securing our identities.

The blockchain technology continues to charter new ground and open whole new industries in ways that were never previously possible. When we talk about this revolutionary technology, a lot of people understandably bring Bitcoin, Litecoin as well as other crypto coins to mind. Now, this is true only for the early days of his burgeoning industry as it has since grown to be applied in virtually every single sphere of business and life as a whole. Utility tokens are now the way to go, as platforms offering actual services in certain niches, now offer their users the chance to pay for the access of such services without needing to go through banks and their middlemen, or even standalone cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin for that matter.

It is every expert’s belief that 2018 will be the year of the tokens, as a result of a number of reasons some of which include:

Maturation of the Industry: The year 2017 saw an explosion of the number of ICOs all around the world, largely thanks to the accessibility of the Ethereum blockchain which made the creation of DApps easy. A lot of these ICOs have a timeline of a year or so to become fully operational and ranging from the provision of smart electricity grids, to the tracing of goods through their supply chain, the industry is growing at a breakneck speed and fast reaching maturity. Even the banking industry giants such as JP Morgan are diluting their harsh rhetoric against cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology as a whole, as some of the promises made by these new startups are beginning to shape up.

New Titans In The Making: One of the other reasons why we are most likely to see the explosion in the value of utility tokens around the world much more than we might see in coins, is the fact that with the maturity of ICO startups comes the possibility that they will turn out to be shapers of industry in the times ahead. Who would not love to buy a stock of the next Amazon or Apple while it is still trading for a little over a dollar? Astute investors knowing that the blockchain technology is going nowhere and as such are on the lookout for the next big thing that is built on it, Utility tokens will see a boom in demand and an equal appreciation in their prices.

Ease of Access to Services: Buying a phone through a centralized marketplace often requires a bit of wait, steep charges and highly inefficient payment modes, The blockchain technology with the aid of utility tokens is ridding users of all the problems that plague their transactions, and make their buying and selling activities as seamless and hassle-free as possible. All one needs is access to the utility tokens of a certain platform which are traded freely on the markets. With greater acceptance of these tokens and a wider use, their value seems sure to go only one way, which is up.

The technology they often say is a double-edged sword. It can be harnessed to do a great deal of good, and it can also be used for more sinister things that can bring much harm to humanity as a whole. Information which was the exclusive forte of a few elites around the world with a vast pool of resources suddenly became free to access by an average citizen of this planet.

But with the rise of the internet, a lot of other problems also came up, as online transactions in every shape or form came under the threat of a new form of identity theft. This growing menace is not just a stuff of fiction or a matter of criminals gaining access to sensitive private info about our lives, it is about hard cold cash too. Identity theft cost billions and billions of dollars every year, and increasingly it’s not just people like you and me that are bearing costs alone, it is the multi-national companies as well.

Every international business that deals with the internet (which practically means all of them) lives under the perpetual fear of online hackings of their systems. From Microsoft to Dell and IBM there is the increasing awareness among Multi-National Cos for a drastic solution for these nefarious activities that cost them billions of dollars in compensation, security upgrade and even more in the trust of their customers.

For IBM and Microsoft for example, the Blockchain technology is what looks like the perfect solution to that will not only solve the identity theft crisis, it will also be able to achieve that under the most cost-effective, and with the permanency that is required for this sector.

IBM which is among the biggest companies to have seen the potential of the blockchain technology for quite some time now has a whole blockchain department. The giant tech company hopes to be among the first to hit this new fertile green filed, and one of its grand projects which is now well underway is in partnership with another Multi-National, in the form of Maersk.  The partnership seeks to provide shippers with an all-convenience platform that will provide incorruptible shipping data as well as replace all present paperwork with a completely digital system that everyone can trust.

Companies like Microsoft have also taken up this call, and one of the most cutting-edge identity verification solution companies out there has been Velix.ID. This is a company that will provide everyone with the ultimate online ID wherever they might go without the hassle or security concerns with present paper-based systems. There is no problem that defies having a solution, and Velix.ID proves this one more time with the identity verification problem that has previously defied all solutions. The blockchain technology is humanity’s first incorruptible innovation, and it looks set to bring this unassailable authority it has to this sector.

For someone that is currently worth over $10 billion, you would think that such a person will be as easy to find as browsing through Forbes’ rich list. But this is no ordinary billionaire, as he is not worth in any ordinary currency. Satoshi Nakamoto the creator of Bitcoin has eluded all efforts to pinpoint his whereabouts or identity for that matter. Much like the cryptographically stable currency he authored which has so far created an over half a trillion dollar industry within the last 9 years, Nakamoto still remains a subject of mystery and fascination as there is still no definitive proof he has ever been identified.

Theories and Conspiracies

There are those that believe that Satoshi is not a person but a pseudonym for a group that worked together to give birth to Bitcoin, while others are more inclined to theories where certain individuals were singled out to be potentially the Nakamoto the world is in awe of. Some of these individuals include:

Dorian Nakamoto: When you share a surname with the most elusive celebrity on earth, there is always a fair chance you will be mistaken for them at one time or the other. Dorian Nakamoto a Japanese American living in California was among the most celebrated “findings” of who the Bitcoin creator was. With a background as a physicist and with previous work experience on classified government defense projects, Dorian Nakamoto was chased up and down by journalists who believed he was the true Nakamoto that created the first stable decentralized currency in the world. However Dorian Nakamoto consistently denied that he was indeed the creator of Bitcoin, and had never heard of it before the media frenzy began. Dorian’s claim was later backed up by one of Satoshi Nakamoto’s online accounts where he posted “I am not Dorian Nakamoto”

Hal Finney: If there was anyone that categorically knows the actual identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, then it is the man with whom the first ever Bitcoin transaction was made. Hal Finney a developer and a cryptography enthusiast was the man Satoshi Nakamoto made the first transfer of Bitcoins to. Finney like Dorian denied any attempts to label him as Satoshi, but Dorian Nakamoto’s defense was not helped by the fact that Finney happened to live a few blocks from him.

Craig Wright Steven: While others a denying any link to Bitcoin and being Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig Steven Wright is one that covers the role and has consistently claimed to be the man. Wright is an Australian developer and businessman who has given interviews to BBC, the Economist and other high profile publications claiming he has conclusive proof to the world that he is indeed Nakamoto. But his claims have been largely refuted as Wright who covets the limelight so much could not have been able to hide under billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin without splashing some out to prove he is the man.

As of present the search for Nakamoto is no closer to being concluded, and there is little hope that it will ever reach a fruitful end. Satoshi Nakamoto like the industry he created is one that covets his privacy, and it does help being the creator of one of the most advanced cryptography infrastructures ever created, to keep his identify away from everyone.

The world’s imagination has been set alight with the cryptocurrency phenomenon, and there is barely the passage of a few days without the industry making one major headline or the other. The cryptocurrency industry is making huge strides in becoming part and parcel of mainstream life. Trading in the digital assets is becoming bigger and bigger by the day, with the market currently commanding hundreds of billion in worth.

Despite its giant strides in becoming a fixed part of the mainstream psyche, the debate still rages on, on the viability of cryptocurrencies and whether they will last the marathon. Opponents of the crypto industry say that this is an industry with very little for users to rely on in terms of accountability, or insurance, as there is still little or no legal framework as far as the industry is concerned.

On the other side of this epic debate are those who firmly believe in the future and everlasting viability of the cryptocurrency industry, they point to many convincing facts about the cryptocurrency revolution some of which include:

1) Tranparency

2) Decentralization

3) Incorruptibility

The debate about the cryptocurrency world’s viability going into the future might be far from over, but if the previous year is anything to go by, this industry will soon convince most if not all of its detractors. This is because the fact that blockchains once created cannot be stopped coupled with the huge value and real life solutions the industry is giving the world in many spheres of life, the fact is that this is an industry that is here to stay with us for the foreseeable future, and will be one of the great sources of change in the way things are done in the world this century.
