The Birth Of A New Cryptocurrency

While we’re usually not crazy about jumping in the cryptocurrency Kool-aid, a new type of crypto just being birthed called Kinesis caught our eye. This emerging crypto is based on gold and silver…so already it sounds a little different, right? To learn more about Kinesis and just how a new cryptocurrency is birthed, we invited CEO of Kinesis, Thomas Coughlin down to the basement to give us the fundamentals. What makes them different? Why launch a new one when so many others already exist? How do you keep your crypto-money from being stolen? We’ll ask these questions and many more today.

Gold-Based Monetary System to Bring Price Stability to Crypto, Preventing Value Decrease



Gold-based monetary system Kinesis aims to bring price stability to the world of cryptocurrency and to prevent the decrease of its value. The company says it has already attracted interest from key players in the gold industry, which is estimated at $6.8 trillion only on London’s gold market (70 percent of the global trading volume).

After the gold standard that once defined the value of currencies was abandoned in the 20th century, the monetary system became dependent on central banking policies. The Kinesis team decided to create its own “efficient, secure and fair monetary system” based on two of the most stable commodities in the world — gold and silver.

“There is [approximately] $15 trillion in gold traded every year, creating exceptional but untapped potential for investment and exchange if gold can be remonetized. Adding a yield to this exchange multiplies this potential exponentially,” says Thomas Coughlin, CEO of Kinesis.

Kinesis offers digital currencies based 1:1 on allocated physical gold (KAU coins) and silver (KAG coins). When users purchase Kinesis currencies, they actually purchase real metal. The ownership of the gold is digitized with blockchain technology, which allows the user to hold or transfer currency from their Kinesis e-Wallet. The Kinesis debit card allows the owner to make the instant conversion of KAU and KAG into fiat currency and spend cryptocurrency all around the world. The company states that, unlike other cryptocurrencies, the transactions through the Kinesis system will take just two to three seconds as a result of their bespoke fork of the Stellar network, which is able to withstand over 3,000 transactions per second. Kinesis believes KAU and KAG currencies could be used in day-to-day purchases  like buying a cup of coffee or even buying a car. Besides paying the bills, the Kinesis Monetary System can be used for managing international payments with lower transfer rates offered by banks and other international payment services.

Another option offered by the network is the ability to trade holdings on the Kinesis Blockchain Exchange. The cryptocurrencies can be transferred back to physical gold or silver as the system generates a 0.45 percent fee when these are transferred between the holders, accumulating in a pool to be distributed back to users of the system in the form of a yield.

Kinesis was founded by the Allocated Bullion Exchange (ABX), the world’s first electronic, institutional bullion exchange for physical precious metal. Which gave the new blockchain-based fintech company an exceptional start: extensive infrastructure and a fully operational exchange built for the trade and storage of physical bullion in seven locations around the world. The new — but experienced — startup is able to “bring back a truly decentralized, [digitized] stable asset, based on blockchain technology,” Kinesis says.

ITO Launch

Kinesis is currently in the public sale phase of their Initial Token Offering (ITO) of its Velocity Token (KVT), which will be the first cryptocurrency made available by the startup’s team. KVT is a utility token and is not backed by a physical asset but rather a whole monetary system.

With KVT, investors can get a share of the transaction fees generated by the system (maximum 20 percent). This income is distributed to holders of 300,000 KVT, and company promises there will be no future dilution.

According to Kinesis, there is a high demand of its first tokens. Kinesis says it raised over  $50 million just in their presale period by selling over 55,000 KVT.

ICO Analysis: Kinesis Velocity Token
Published on September 12, 2018
By Daniel Won
Proof: https://hacked.com/ico-analysis-kinesis-velocity-token/

Team
CEO Thomas Coughlin: Coughlin is the CEO at Allocated Bullion Exchange, an exchange for allocated physical precious metals.
CSO Eric Maine: Maine is the chief strategy officer at Allocated Bullion Exchange.
Soumya Reddy: Reddy has worked as a senior software engineer at SLK for four years, a technology and consulting company.

Partners

The Allocated Bullion Exchange: ABX is a gold exchange which allows investors to buy and sell precious metals since 2013. Many Kinesis team members have worked or have been working for ABX.

Verdict
Below is a breakdown of the risks and growth potential of Kinesis Velocity Token.

Risks
    A hard-cap of $300,000,000 might be justifiable for a project with ambitious goals such as Kinesis, yet together with sequel ICOs planned for the future, the amount raised will be even higher when all is said and done. This might leave less room for token appreciation. (-1.5)

Growth Potential
    Due to the mechanism of the buy-back program, token holders’ further possible losses shall be mitigated to some degree. (+1.5)
    Distributing 20% of transaction fees to KVT tokens creates a truly great incentive to hold tokens. (+3)
    Kinesis is planned to be a whole monetary ecosystem at the end and the team seems capable to deliver. (+2)
    Backed by ABX, adoption to a certain degree can be expected. If the distribution of transaction fees goes without any problem, even higher adoption can be expected. (+1.5)

Disposition

Central banks hold the right to print money as much as they like which creates devaluation of national currencies. Even if people deposit their money in order to mitigate losses, usually interest rates offered by banks are lower than price inflation. The Kinesis team thinks that this can be solved by a platform backed by traditional stores of value such as gold and silver. Aiming to create a complete monetary ecosystem, the first cryptocurrency the team introduces is Kinetic Velocity Token. The buy-back program and the distribution of transaction fees create huge incentives to hold KVT tokens even in the presence of great price volatility. Still, the investor should note that the platform is looking to raise $300,000,000 which can deter investors planning to participate in the ICO. Kinesis Velocity Token receives a 6.5/10.

Investment Details
   Type: ERC20 – Utility
    Symbol: KVT
    Platform: Ethereum
    Crowdsale: September 10th
    Minimum Investment: $1,000
    Price: $1,000
    Hard Cap: $300,000,000
    Payments Accepted: ETH, BTC, AUD, USD

TROUBLESHOOTING: What to do if you haven’t received your KVTs yet
Kinesis Velocity Token (KVT) public sale and issuance has begun, after our pre-sale ended in the early hours of this morning. Over $50million worth of KVTs were sold during pre-sale!

Please note — KVTs are non transferable until the end of public sale — any attempt to transfer KVTs out of your wallet will incur a gas fee, even though the transfer will fail.

In most cases, if you have paid but not yet received your KVT/s, we are either awaiting documents for compliance from you or you have not yet provided us with a valid eWallet address.

As is the case for most ERC20 tokens , your new tokens won’t be recognized unless your ERC20 wallet is set up for it.

Steps
To complete set-up and view your new KVTs, you can use MyEtherWallet.com or your MetaMask eWallet. Most of the steps you’ll need to follow will be similar to the ones below across various ERC20-compliant eWallets:

On MyEtherWallet.com, click on ‘View Wallet Info’ in the main menu

In answer to ‘How would you like to access your wallet?’ Select, ‘View w/ Address Only’.

Paste your wallet’s public address into the address field and click, ‘View balance’.
In the ‘Token Balances’ section, click ‘Add Custom Token’

Fill out the token details then click ‘Save’ when ready:

 Contract Address:  0x3a859b9ea4998d344547283c7ce8ebc4abb77656

 Token Symbol: KVT

 Decimals: 0

Once the above mentioned steps are completed, you will be able to see your KVTs.

For MetaMask

1. Launch and log into MetaMask

2. Go to the ‘Tokens’ tab

3. Click on ‘Add Token’ to see the token detail form

4. Fill out the token details then click ‘Add’:
 Contract Address:  0x3a859b9ea4998d344547283c7ce8ebc4abb77656
 Token Symbol: KVT
 Decimals: 0

5. Once you hit ‘Add’, you will be able to see the balance of your KVTs and they will be added to MetaMask. Similarly, you can add any ERC20 token to MetaMask anytime.

If you are still having problems, please email [email protected]

The Kinesis Monetary System
Click to Play

Quite simply Kinesis is a currency based 1:1 on allocated gold and silver. We have created a decentralised monetary system that allows anyone to mint their own currency called KAU (gold) and KAG (silver).

The current monetary system is based on debt, Kinesis is based on physical holdings of precious metals. In this video we show you how that process works.
