Thanks for the comment dzkrb1966!

Yeah definitely, white paper is actually a part of the technical documentation for the protocol itself.

We will be releasing a light paper soon, which will be easier to read and be more geared toward the "ordinary investor".

Hey SeveralQ!

Great, thanks for reaching out. We will get the ball rolling 

Hello, what kind of marketing do you plan to use for your project? What audience will be used to promote your token?

Too complex a language written white paper. Some protocol changed and so on. Here's how to deal with this all ordinary investor, who does not understand such details? How can he understand? Should I invest it or not?

Hi everyone! Just added the 0xcert ICO to my website https://concourseq.io/Q/0xcert. ConcourseQ is a collaborative due diligence community that researches and reviews ICOs. Anyone with an account can submit information to your page, so we are reaching out to this community to get you all involved in the discussion. Thanks! PS: If you have any questions about filling in the info, feel free to ask us in our discord group: https://discord.gg/j8RBAwB

Hi, Saugani! Kristija here, the CTO. I'm glad you find our work interesting.

Yes, what we are building is an open-source protocol for managing assets on the blockchain as non-fungible tokens. We decided to build the first implementation of the 0xcert protocol on the Ethereum blockchain. Yes, non-fungible tokens in the Ethereum community are known as erc721 tokens. We are extending this standard with an additional functionality. These new tokens, we call them Xcerts, carry also asset imprints. This means that by owning a token in your wallet, you actually possess a proof that you own a real-world asset and can prove it based on the imprints in the token.

The exact destination, as you stated, is clear. The protocol will enable application developers with little or no blockchain knowledge to simply build non-fungible applications on the blockchain (e.g. KYC, certificates, collectibles etc) using 0xcert libraries. Blockchain represents a huge opportunity for application developers. Building on top of it today represents a challenge for developers. You need to have a team of crypto and security experts and a lot of time to actually build a secure dapp.

I'm glad you actually went through our GitHub repository. As you've noticed the source code includes links to related projects and libraries. This is to be fully transparent to the open-source community. One of them is the 0xProject which inspired us all. These guys did a very good job and deserve a medal. The 0xcert protocol includes the same concept of proxies but the rest is focused on erc721 and not erc20. We use erc20 only for protocol token (e.g. fees).

I hope this answers your questions.

Thanks for the questions, love it when people dig deep!

We see the adoption of crypto and blockchain in general as a big problem. It is currently more or less only available to developers that are able to use Solidity (in Ethereum's case), which hinders a wider adoption...but this should not be the case.

We are definitely here to serve the blockchain and crypto communities first. Having a protocol for managing NFTs by itself is a great value-add. Being able to do this faster and have conventions for interoperability is even better.

But we would also like to help this whole ecosystem by creating tools that also non-blockchain developers can use - the framework with SDK in popular programming languages.

For instance the code example from above. If somebody wants to use non-fungible tokens in their current solution (let's say issue certificates on the blockchain), they can get started and deploy a master smart contract with just a few lines of code. This is a huge step forward! Just imagine how big the adoption potential is, once more standard tools are available.

Hope this answers your question

Can you help me understand something better? And sorry for my knowledge is not enough to understand what you write above. thank you

Sorry I do not understand all about your project, I would like to ask some questions:
You write: "0xcert is the first open protocol for issuing, verifying and managing unique digital assets on Ethereum blockchain."

But the fee below you wrote: "Our goal is to bring this amazing technology closer to the non-blockchain tech community and allow them to build awesome dapps on top of it"

As I understand the first words, your project is serving the blockchain community and crytocurrency. And then you say you're targeting non-blockchain communities?

yes, thank you that's what I mean. Now I think I have to learn about ERC721 first. I still learning about the difference between ETH and NEO and now appear something else that's coming from ETH. Good luck and good job with your project, perhaps you will announce the bounty campaign later, see you.

Hey evilsign, Jure here.

I don't think the question is what makes to coin different, I think the question is what makes this technology different from all others. If I'd had to pick one thing I'd say massive adoption.

Imagine this: So far you had to have a solidity/blockchain developer to do anything on the blockchain. Now, with our plug-and-play libraries (NodeJS, Ruby, Python, etc.), any developer can easily build an xcert dapp for issuing standardized and certified NFT tokens, like:

- college degrees,
- online credentials,
- KYC certifiates (you only do KYC once in life and reuse the same xcert for any ICO from your wallet),
- sotware licenses,
- even you own collectables (like CryptoKitties), etc.

So anything that is unique can now be issued and stored in a wallet. And you don't have to write a single line of code in Solidity to do this.

Now imagine tons of businesses out there who already have an existing business model. They see the potential in the non-fungible (ERC721) tokens and want to use this technology. Maybe some real-estate company, maybe some intellectual properties service... Well, now, they have everything they need to implement with -- the underlying solution so that they can focus on the upper application/service layer. What they're really good at.

Hope that answers your question 

We'll post more in dept token info soon! In general, the XCT token is used in higher level dapps, built on top of the protocol. The most basic usage is for paying fees, but this can be expanded to so much more, depending on the dapp. Down the road, it might also be used in a decentralised governance model for protocol governance. We are actively building an ecosystem on top of the protocol, which will enormously increase the token usage amount.


WP is online, here is the LINK

Yes, the protocol is for ERC721 tokens, correct!

The goal of the project is the 0xcert protocol, which is built for managing non-fungible tokens. A huge value add is also the framework, which allows non-blockchain developers to deploy non-fungible functionality with a few lines of code.

0x Project was a huge inspiration, I am very happy that you noticed! We are trying to build a similar solution, but for ERC721.

what's to make this coin differents with the other? and what's the excellent of this coin? I hope I can read the WP?

Woww very good interesting Dev.
We’re waiting for Campaign and Boounty, btw this planning make for new type token ERC721? Correct

So!! exact destination on this project to verifying and managing certified unique to based on protocol ethereum?
but,what the appear almost identical with (0x Project - source code ethereum)  

Hey TrackICO.io!

Thanks for your message, we have reached out

All important announcements regarding crowdsale and bounty will follow, stay tuned!

^---------
WHAT IS 0xCERT

0xcert is the first open protocol for issuing, verifying and managing certified unique digital assets on the Ethereum blockchain.



^---------
CURRENT SITUATION

Low-level blockchain complexity hinders a wide adoption of non-fungible tokens and blockchain in general. The lack of conventions prevents interoperability among applications.

If an organization wants to develop their own decentralised application that uses non-fungible tokens, they would face long development time and add huge risk to their development process and security. In the long run, each organization that would like to adopt the same technology would have to go through the same development process - and their work is doubled every time, which lowers the overall efficiency and adoption rate. The resulting ecosystem of digital assets would be fragmented, with non-interoperable dapps and underlying data.



^---------
WHY ARE WE HERE

The vision of 0xcert is to provide an open protocol for standardized and certified non-fungible tokens to a wider tech audience. We want to help developers build on top of the new ERC721 (non-fungible token) standard by providing a complete toolset, development framework and a set of conventions for various use cases.

With 0xcert, we can drastically shorten development time, decrease risk and cut cost associated with developing blockchain solutions. A wide range of decentralised applications and business models can be supported, giving companies the power to fully utilise the potential of blockchain technology.

Our goal is to bring this amazing technology closer to the non-blockchain tech community and allow them to build awesome dapps on top of it. And it’s not just about cryptocollectables, with the conventions layer your wallet can become a secure storage for your college degree, KYC certificates, loyalty program, software license, event tickets, intellectual property, etc.



^---------
DEPLOY WITH A FEW LINES OF CODE

No need to struggle with the low-level blockchain complexity. Use a solid and flexible infrastructure, that ensures interoperability between dapps by default.





^---------
CONVENTIONS FOR INTEROPERABILITY

The 0xcert protocol provides conventions for creating certified non-fungible tokens from unique digital assets. With use of the protocol, proof of a digital asset can be written into the token. These proofs are built following conventions and enable data interoperability among various applications.





^---------
LARGE AMOUNT OF USE CASES

The 0xcert protocol can be best described as the underlying technological base layer for new use cases to be built upon.
Developers will no longer need to be advanced Solidity developers to create blockchain based solutions. The simple to use SDKs (libraries in python, javascript, ruby,...) allow for fast and safe production, which in turn allows for more creativity and flexibility with high-level dapps. Use cases include KYC, academic credentials, certification, collectables, decentralised exchange, badges, product authentication, loyalty programs, in-game items, copyright, supply chain, medical data, content paywall, software licensing, and many more!



^---------
OPEN SOURCE

0xcert is an open-source and community-driven project.
It’s first implementation is built on Ethereum, but due to the blockchain-agnostic nature of the protocol, expansion to other blockchains will follow. The protocol may also include a decentralized governance (DAO) mechanism to allow the community to vote for further improvements.



^---------
EXISTING PARTNERSHIPS

The 0xcert technology is already being identified by various industry leaders. New partnerships and supporters are created almost on a daily basis. More importantly, a lot of blockchain companies have expressed interest to build their solutions on top of the 0xcert protocol. All of these announcements will be posted regularly!
