KaratGold Coin (KBC)

1. Project Introduction

The KaratGold Coin - KBC - is a Blockchain-based cryptocurrency issued on February 2018 linked to physically deposited gold in the form of the so-called CashGold, a true gold standard. A certain number of KBCs can be exchanged for the corresponding amount of CashGold at any time. The gold-covered KBC but back to a serious shortcoming to share the previous crypto currencies such as Bitcoin, Etherium, etc. with the traditional Fiat currencies à la Euro, US dollars and yen: the lack of coverage by a real, indestructible equivalent.

The concept of giving real gold coverage to a new cryptocurrency right from the start and thus providing a man-made unshakable resistance to crises is a real innovation in this field. At the same time, as a cryptocurrency, KBC offers advantages that Fiat money can´t afford, such as the option of anonymous transfers directly from user to user (peer to peer) without bank participation. Thus, the KBC has been developed to serve as a generally accepted electronic means of payment for all those who regard gold as a traditional, true, secure and value-stable medium. On the other hand, customers on the one hand and dealers and service providers on the other rely on the value of gold. In former times, gold was a direct means of payment, especially in the form of gold coins.
