Intro


Ascension is a new marketplace for tokens. Tokens will be based on real-world processes, such as the career projectories of people like Elon Musk, and the prospects of both commercial and non-commercial projects, such as the new LOTR TV show.

Like crypto-kitties, the "Elon Musk"-token and the "Yosemite Park"-token derives value primarily from its scarcity. Tokens are minted using a variation on the TBC (token-bonded curve) model. This means that prices for tokens are set algorithmically by smart contracts, and trading can proceed at all times without a counter-party, independent of the number of market participants at a given point in time. The price goes up as more people buy, and down if people sell.

To maintain scarcity, Ascension will form the first member of a network of marketplaces which all agree that all "Elon Musk"-tokens are worth the same, no matter which blockchain they originate in. This is called the SEMANTIC TOKEN INTERCHANGE COMPACT. Any marketplace that refuses to join the compact, or a similar large scarcity-preserving alliance, will likely be disadvantaged in the future. This is how we believe there will soon be scarcity-based investments for all imaginable real-world phenomena, from people to movies to national monuments.


Features


- Token Name: Cubit (CU)
- DPoS based on EOS.IO
- Semi-stable price range target centered around $1
- Inflationary, inflation driven algorithmically by smart contract watching the price movement
- The more acive users join the platform, the greater the inflation for that month will be
- Token holders benefit from inflation through interest payments
- Early investors can profit exponentially, as the user growth in percentage points early on
    will lead to a period of hyper-inflation, with interest payments adding up
      to 10x or more of the initial stake


Governance: Ascension will function like a Big Decentralized Company


Ascension has departments, such as

- technology
- marketing
- business ventures
- social network

These are driven by internal prediction markets, in which you can trade, which determine what
internal projects get funded.

In the future Ascension can grow to a large and sprawling business empire, and every stakeholder can participate in the open and transparent processes that govern the decision-making at every step.
