Blockchain technology can do wonders to the current industry, and it has been demonstrated over and over again in various scenarios. iLink2Music is one such platform showcasing the potential impact the distributed ledger technology can have on the music industry. This blog will discusses about iLink2Music, its tokens and how the platform is going to solve the age-old industry problem when it comes to digital multimedia content distribution and consumption.
The iLink2Music Platform
Since the emerge of electronic recording and distribution systems, artists have started finding themselves shortchanged when it comes to remunerations and rewards. And the audience are spoil with alternative choices to access the digital content, but most of these are either expensive, which has forced many to opt for illegal downloads while encouraging piracy in the process.
The high cost of digital content can be attributed to middlemen who take hefty commissions and end up benefiting from the expense of both artists and consumers. iLink2Music, through its innovative platform and the use of new-age technology is attempting to address the problem by cutting out middlemen and optimizing content management and delivery.
iLink2Music is a music-based social networking service specializing in connecting fans, industry professionals, and talent to a global music community. It is a blockchain-driven music and entertainment social media platform, that supposed to connect artists, executives and music fans.
iLink2Music mission is to offer a people-driven platform. In this ecosystem, the concept of the producer will cease to exist. Anyone will be able to broadcast to as many people as they can anywhere on earth.
Many believe that blockchain platforms and cryptocurrencies are complex technological creations which are not easy to use. They believe that for someone to be able to understand the technology and use any such platform should have advanced technical skills. iLink2Music addresses these apprehensions by providing an easy to use interface and issue a native cryptocurrency as well as fiat to make it as good as any other conventional music streaming service out there in today’s market.
The team behind iLink2Music have conducted extensive research into the industry to identify the problems. They are implementing these learnings to develop a platform that can address most of the issues. The VOISE ecosystem is powered by its own ELINK tokens, which acts as the primary mode of transaction on the platform.
An overview of VOISE platform features include:

Currently, the crypto market is a huge market with more than $ 400 billion of market capitalization. It is possible to buy and sell cryptocurrencies using OTC facilities or directly on several digital exchanges around the globe.
Several countries such as Japan, Singapore, Gibraltar, Switzerland are more welcoming to digital investors than others. However, we are still at the beginning of this new “crypto era” and a number of problems remain. We see a substantial market demand in crypto assets from the following two groups:
Ordinary investors
Innovative investors
Innovative investors are entrepreneurs who live in the crypto world and pay rent, get paid bonuses, buy goods in stores and count their digital fortune in terms of ETH, BTC or other cryptocurrencies. For these digital investors there are two major problems:
Availability of transparent and high-quality digital wealth management services;
Insufficient widening of use cases for cryptocurrencies;
Ordinary investors who have decided to invest in crypto assets also face a number of obstacles, these include:
Difficulties in establishing banking relations to work with cryptocurrencies
Lengthy verification processes in establishing its crypto exchange accounts
Lack of knowledge and experience in investing in cryptocurrencies
Slow innovation and digitalization of the traditional financial industry
Lack of high-quality investment services for mass affluent clients
Lack of transparency and risks related to scams, corruption and data manipulation

Those who held Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in their investment portfolios for the last six months have experienced a range of emotions - from the euphoric highs of Dec. 2017, when the price of Bitcoin almost blasted through the $20,000 barrier, to the crashing lows of Feb. 2018. When the market has entered the green light, it might seem a little irrelevant, we all know about the potential for enormous volatility that lies ahead.
Assuming the cryptocurrency market capitalization were to maintain a long-term upward trajectory forever, it would make sense to never sell your coins—presuming they have strong fundamentals—by “HODLing” them indefinitely.
However, if there’s one thing cryptocurrency investors have learnt this winter: it’s that sometimes it pays to take profits, which can then potentially be used to buy back into the market later when prices are lower. The problem, of course, is knowing when to take out profits and when to buy back in.
Technical analysis strategies involving the study of price and volume patterns of charts can work well here, but they require skill and practice to master. On top of this, charts can be interpreted differently depending on the analyst - what looks like a sell signal to one may appear as a buy signal to another. This room for interpretation may also open the door for emotional biases when analysing the charts, meaning sometimes investors see the patterns they want to see.
Introducing LUCRE! LUCRE has been building a trading algorithm which tries to outperform the performance of just HODLing the Cryptocurrencies. Build on a philosophy - Don’t HODL; Trade!, LUCRE development team believes that holding a Cryptocurrency hasn’t been the best way to increase your wealth lately. What is LUCRE? And how it works? You can find out in this brief review.
What Is LUCRE?
Lucre serves as a tokens platform that is currently backed by algorithmic trading performance. Powered by blockchain technology, the platform currently serves as an automated signal and trading system service for the crypto universe. The platform was created with the aim of outperforming the crypto holding strategy.
LUCRE algorithm was build on a philosophy - Don’t HODL; Trade! allowing trading both ways long and short. The great appeal of this project is the ability to generate revenues in all market conditions, buying and selling at every perceived opportunity. Even when the market is going south the algorithm attempts to make profit by shorting it.
Currently LUCRE Trading algorithm only trades BTCUSD (Bitcoin) derivative (CFD). Other Cryptocurrencies will be added in due course. Performance of just HODLing was great only in good times when market kept going up but it turned sour after peaking on Dec 18th 2017. However the algorithm trading performance was unmatched.
There is a distinction between ’high risk’ and ’unacceptable risk’ in the minds of many participants – cryptocurrencies have traditionally been seen as the latter. LUCRE aims to bring the risk to an acceptable level for allocation to retail participants. The maximum drawdown of LUCRE algorithm trading was 30% in the 1 year of trading test results. In comparison BTCUSD has been down 70% from the peak in December.
How It Works?
Hodling occurs because people in possession of cryptocurrency wait for the ideal market condition to reap the maximum price for their cryptocurrency investment. Lucre’s underlying algorithmic structure liberates the participants from worrying about any fluctuations by generating revenue irrespective of the market situation. This is achieved by making short and long-term trades on the Metatrader trading platform via the aforementioned algorithm.
Automated trading allows to establish specific rules for both trade entries and exits that, once programmed, can be automatically executed via a computer. Once the rules have been established, the algorithm monitors the markets to find buy or sell opportunities based on the trading strategy specifications. Depending on the specific rules, as soon as a trade is entered, any orders for protective stop losses, trailing stops and profit targets will automatically be generated. In fast moving markets, this instantaneous order entry can mean the difference between a small loss and a catastrophic loss in the event the trade moves against the trader.
Features of LUCRE Platform
Trading on the LUCRE platform allows for both long and short-term trades. One of its biggest appealing strategies is its ability to create revenue, regardless of the prevailing market conditions. This means that traders will be in a position to buy and sell, regardless of the opportunities that are prevailing in that market. LUCRE top features include:
Signal Service
Traders get to receive high-quality close/sell/buy alerts. They also get exclusive trading signals coupled with a seventy-five percent trading accuracy. This means that they can use these signals to trade on any exchange or with a broker they prefer.
Automated Trading
The platform has a fully automated trading system that is compatible with all Forex CFD brokers and cryptocurrency exchanges. You can use your LUCRE account to connect with these exchanges and move your money seamlessly without any worry.
Trading Pool
All the LUCRE (LCR) tokens that get deposited into the trading pool are to be managed by the platform algorithm. The trading team will also assist in the management of these tokens.
LUCRE Automated Trading Advantages
There is a long list of advantages to having a computer monitor the markets for trading opportunities and execute the trades. Some of the advantages are listed below:
Minimize Emotions - Automated trading systems minimize emotions throughout the trading process. Since trade orders are executed automatically once the trade rules have been met, traders will not be able to hesitate or question the trade. In addition to helping traders who are afraid to "pull the trigger", automated trading can curb those who are apt to overtrade – buying and selling at every perceived opportunity.
Ability to Backtest - Backtesting applies trading rules to historical market data to determine the viability of the idea. Careful backtesting allows to evaluate and finetune a trading idea, and to determine the system's expectancy – the average amount that a trader can expect to win (or lose) per unit of risk.
Preserve Discipline - Because the trade rules are established and trade execution is performed automatically, discipline is preserved even in volatile markets.
Achieve Consistency - One of the biggest challenges in trading is to plan the trade and trade the plan. Even if a trading plan has the potential to be profitable, traders who ignore the rules are altering any expectancy the system would have had.
Improved Order Entry Speed - Since computers respond immediately to changing market conditions, automated systems are able to generate orders as soon as trade criteria are met. Getting in or out of a trade a few seconds earlier can make a big difference in the trade's outcome. As soon as a position is entered, all other orders are automatically generated, including protective stop losses and profit targets.
24X7 Market - as Crypto market is open 24X7 it is almost humanly impossible to trade every entry signal round the clock manually.
LUCRE Token (LCR)
Lucre’s utility token is called LCR which is initially valued at I USD. This value is derived from net asset value which is dependent on the performance of algorithmic cryptocurrency trading with real currency. LCR can be traded anytime with full transparency ensured. Lucre’s fully automated system is compliant and compatible with other cryptocurrency exchanges and forex brokers which makes it a one-stop solution for the LCR token holders. LCR can be obtained from November 14th and will continue to be available for further four weeks. Up to 10 million LCR will be sold to ICO investors, which is equivalent to 80% of the token supply.
Lucre Token Distribution
As an intimation system to the users who invested more than 1ETH during the token sale, Lucre algorithm will send out a signal every time a trade takes place. To scrutinize the performance of the algorithm, daily updates and calculations are set in place and will be made available on Lucre dashboard. Another unique and exclusive incentive provided for Lucre token sale participants is allotment of recurrent profits whereas other platforms require additional funds to achieve this.
A valid question which arises here is that if someone hasn’t participated in the token sale will they have access to Lucre features such as trade intimation signals and auto-trading? The answer is that these features can be accessed on condition that LCR tokens are purchased from original participants.
As cryptocurrency continues down its volatile path, developers are continually trying to create a truly non-speculative digital currency. In the beginning of 2018, for example, the total market cap of the space climbed to nearly $800 billion before abruptly falling back down to just over $400 billion in January alone. This degree of volatility makes digital assets, tokens and coins difficult to trust, let alone trade frequently and invest in long-term.
Some critics say that the high volatility points to a coming crash similar to that experienced in the beginning of the dot com boom. This uncertainty has prompted developers to attempt to come up with ways to scale blockchain technology into the mainstream, and without a more stable price that traders and investors can trust, this task is much less realistic.
The idea of a less volatile class of cryptocurrencies has led to the development of digital currencies that are backed by pegged, real world assets. Here is one of blockchain project that issued a native cryptocurrency backed by real assets, alcohol drink, namely BeverageCash (BC) Token.
What Is BeverageCash?
BeverageCash is a decentralized solution whereby the real sector of economy and cryptoworld have been merged. The application has been developed to address the key problem of cryptocurrency price instability, and marries the trading process on an innovative platform with unique functions.

Within the platform, alcohol manufactures, sellers, collectors will be able to place bids (bottle, box, etc.) that will be represented by Beverage Token (BT). The platform will also employ a Beverage Coin (BC) that will be used for transactions, fees and commissions on the bevarage.cash platform.
The price of tokens will grow with time and volume, just as the wine becomes fine with time. The investors are allowed to make long-term and short-term investments, and in addition, the orders of lots can be delivered to any address at any time. The lots transfer of ownership will occur on the blockchain records but they do not have to physically move from point A to B.

About eight years ago, a pseudonymous cryptographer known as Satoshi Nakamoto introduced Bitcoin as a digital analog to gold: limited in supply, but secured by modern cryptography, and made for the internet age. Following in Satoshi’s footsteps, many tried to improve his original vision and thousands of alternative cryptocurrencies were born. Despite significant recent developments and innovation, the market for cryptocurrencies remains somewhat niche. Cryptocurrencies have shortcomings that currently discourage mainstream use, in particular, high volatility and barriers to entry and exit. Karatcoin aims to solve these issues by creating a business ecosystem to solve the entry and exit issues. Backing each coin/token with 1 gram of gold at launch to address the volatility issues and use blockchain technology to solve any outstanding problems. In short create a unique cryptocurrency. About Karatcoin Karatcoin is a platform to trade gold certificates, exchange Karatcoin tokens, as well as save and exchange currency using gold cards. The team aims to build a platform where millions of investors can go to find the best gold opportunities to invest, trade, and exchange without worrying about traceability. Karatcoin vision is to create a people-powered new economy that focuses on decentralized financial services that ensure both stable and aggressive investments linked to market fluctuations, and which also fuel the financial collateral needed for future projects. At the same time, Kratcoin will also create an ecosystem for developers to utilize Karatcoin tokens (KCG) as a framework for various Ðapp developments, thus accelerating adoption of blockchain technology. The Karatcoin Project is a consultancy system that focuses on the development and mining growth of carefully selected gold mining companies. Karatcoin's ICO provides a unique opportunity to invest both in crypto and real worlds by backing digital tokens (KCG) with a defined amount of physical gold. The amount of gold, assigned to each token initially, is constant and equals 1 gram of 99.99% LBMA standard gold secured in Safehouse Vaults.
How It Works? Karatcoin’s Platform is directly linked to operational gold mines that will receive financing to help increase their gold production. The more Karatcoin’s financing increases, so will the aggregated gold production of their mines, which in turn will increase the value of circulating Karatcoin tokens. These mines will pay the interest due with physical gold extraction (doré gold bars, gold nuggets, gold dust, etc.) which will be stored at the official refinery and turned into gold ingots on Karatcoin's behalf. By leaving the raw material in its place of origin and protected in an authorized vault, Karatcoin will be able to minimize the costs related to transport and related taxes, thus optimizing transactions on the blockchain and allowing a more advantageous price for gold.
Karatcoin Products Gold Certificates Asset Gold Certificates consist of the PoA information permanently uploaded into the decentralized database. These gold certificates have a specific duration and a fixed revenue, ideal for anyone who needs a safe investment. Each Gold Asset Certificate represents 1,000 USD of value. It also have different maturity dates and associated semiannual coupons with a bond yield ranging from 5 to 6% depending on its duration, which is paid in KCG. At maturity date, the redemption will be in KCG.
Gold Cards Each Gold Card represents a personal wallet inside the Karatcoin Blockchain where Gold Products are stored. This card has several advantages:
The physical gold asset is safely stored in a protected area (Vault);
Gold Asset Card refers to allocated asset;
All Gold Card Certificates are held in a Cold Storage Wallet.
Karatcoin Cryptocurrency tokens Karatcoin Gold Token (KCG): KCG is the token used in the Karat Blockchain. It represents 1 gram of 99.99% LBMA standard gold secured in Safehouse Vaults, which means the gold is safe from political influence and will preserve and increase its value over time.
Karatcoin DAO Token (KCD): KCD is the coin token that will be created during the Token Sale and deployed on Ethereum (ERC20 Standard Smart Contract). KCD will migrate to the Karat Blockchain in a 1:1 ratio once the Blockchain is ready.
Karat Blockchain Token (KCX):KCX is a crypto-currency that is a fast and comfortable payment method with a worldwide scope; it's private and anonymous enough to serve as payment method for several markets and any other economic activity.
KCX will give owners the right to vote for all the activities of the Karat Foundation (including the choice by vote of the gold mines to be financed), as well as the operational and fundraising activities that the Foundation provides for participating mines and their surrounding communities.
KCX will also be used as stake to validate blocks on the blockchain (DPoS Consensus).
Conclusion The basic concept behind gold-backed cryptocurrencies is that a token or coin can be issued, which represents a given value of gold. The gold is then secured by a trusted third party and can be traded with other token holders. Doing so makes sure that a minimum value of the token is kept. The gold’s value is based on the price of the day, so even if it hits the minimum, the token will still remain equal to the current gold price. Karatcoin cryptocurrency value backed equals 1 gram of 99.99% LBMA standard gold secured in Safehouse Vaults. Karatcoin works by financing the operational gold mines to help increase gold production. The mines will pay the interest due with physical gold extraction, which will be stored at the official refinery and turned into gold ingots on Karatcoin's behalf. However, like all investments, gold-backed cryptocurrency also comes with some risks, mainly concerning the physical storage of gold. Investors are urged to carefully assess the third-party backing their prospective crypto-investment, as well as the security measures in place.
