The intelligent investors guide to Particl (PART): Part 1 - What is Particl and what is the purpose of the PART token?



Particl is a PoS chain using the native PART token.


The purpose of a dedicated chain is for the privacy centric and optional anonymity aspects of it.

The PART token can either be transferred as a public token or as a private token via use of CT and RingCT to obscure sender and amount.

The PART token also confers voting rights proportional to stake of network owned for the onchain governance and voting mechanisms.

There is also a MAD escrow service they are building in; a trustless escrow system which requires no third party. Using only the native PART token simplifies this mechanic.

 

It is for these reasons and the simple economics of incentivisation that all currencies fed into particl will be converted to native PART token via integrated shapeshift function prior to use on the particl network.

Particl is a modular framework and yes smart contracts mechanisms are involved on the bitcoin core codebase it uses. Their use of ringCT and focus on truly trustless privacy and anonymity is partly why they avoided ETH but also wish to sidestep any possible scalability issues present in ETH currently or bloat issues of launching a highly focused but intensive product. I'm sure there's a bit of ego to prove their coding chops too.

 

The first major module they plan to launch in Q1 2018 is the decentralised marketplace and communications platform.

 This marketplace will allow for:

 Public and private listings of goods for sale (private listings only viewable if the key is known),

  • RingCT to facilitate truly private transactions but also a public token to facilitate non-anonymous one's.

  • Encrypted end to end messaging including group messaging.

  • Filters and categorisation systems to help find goods.

  • Automated shapeshift integration to automatically convert multiple the 67 and growing cryptocurrencies currently supported by shapeshift into PART for transacting on the Particl network.

  • Modularity allowing for widgets and other tools to be built in and plugged into the particl network providing an interface to link other decentralized exchanges and tools to the main marketplace as well as the particl ecosystem.

  • Atomic swaps (like LTC and DCR) to allow frictionless transfers and conversions of tokens.

 

On minimum viable product release (Q1 2018) the marketplace should be essentially complete in the sense of publicly usable minus the reputation systems they plan to implement after.

 

Further reading:

 

I believe Particl if realised as designed will impact ecommerce massively on a paradigm shifting level. Simply put commerce without borders and a massive boon for sensitive transactions.

 

I am ignoring all price activity for now. The project will not use it's funds to needlessly hype and will likely deliver the marketplace minimum viable product in Q1 2018 to justify it and silence all critics.

 

This is because the team (which is now greatly expanded and actually funded) have been heavily criticised for not delivering in the past (as the much smaller, unfunded SDC prior to setting up their foundation) in spite of the history showing clear development (actually rapid for a project of this nature) and currently meeting all milestones given.

 

From a speculative point of view there are numerous reasons to preferentially invest in Particl:

 

  • Holding tokens confers true stakeholder ownership of the network,

  • Receipt of transaction fees proportional to stake and number of transactions on the network.

  • Receipt of interest but with decreasing annual inflation rate (5% PA year one to flat 2% year 4 onwards) to facilitate early adoption.

  • Limited token supply with significant lockup due to PoS. When marketplace is launched if used, the buy demand on PART will be massive relative to circulating supply even for small scale use of the marketplace which should drive up the price of PART massively.


In the following parts of this series I will demonstrate how if Particl is successful it is a literal juggernaut in the making as far as use cases, speculative returns and technology advances in crypto go.

What is iDice?

iDice is a dice betting Dapp fueled by the use of the Ethereum organize. eg. iDice lets in players do several things and having such an innovative new token on the ETHEREUM Platform, we had to write an article about this new project.

DENT: THE World First Tokenizing Portable Information Trade

You may be confused on all the exciting Ethereum projects, but therefore i make sure to follow allof them and choose the best for you. If you want to read about a more interesting project, then DENT is the way to go. I will be able to advice on a few tokens that can be bought out there which clearly we likewise might occu : Estimated token incentive on ETH presented within the token deal: 152,000 ETH (Relying on sorts via crowdsale) 100 Billion (100,000,000,000) the amount of DENT Tokens made, of which 70% is bought on token deal, a minimum of 35% can be stored for customers with littler spending plans. For the ones of you who're eager about ico smartcontract prolong that we regularly listen in non-obligatory cryptographic cash or altcoin without a doubt no longer outdoor to the workings of undertakings like this. Evaluated swapping scale: 1 ETH = 400,000 DENT 30% will keep on DENT Wi-fi for DENT shopper motivating forces and compensations Bills may well be made via ETH...

Fake Libra scams pose new challenge for Facebook

Almost a year after Facebook's Libra was first announced, the outlook for the stablecoin looks starkly different. Once hailed as a game-changer for digital currency, the project has been beset by delays and regulatory difficulties. Now, fake Libra scams are presenting an increasingly pressing new challenge for Libra and Facebook, with a proliferation of websites claiming to offer investment schemes denominated in fake Libra tokens. Dante Disparte, Deputy Chairman and Head of Policy and Communications for The Libra Association, said the organization was now constantly working to suppress fake Libra scams: "As we become aware of these sites, we work diligently to address them. We respond to inquiries concerning the validity of these pages, indicating that the only official website is Libra.org." "We are still in the early stages of this project and work to address issues like these as they arise," Disparte told Finance Magnates, urging people to report the scams. ...
