Thread: MidasCoin[MID]New Scrypt PoM|Backed Value|ATM card

Welcome to the Midas Payment Network

Introduction.

Midas Payment LTD hit the drawing boards about half a year ago. Today, they are proud to reveal theyr brainchild, the Midas Payment Network.

The most important argument today in the crypto world is whether or not there is intrinsic value behind the multitude of coins available. From this starting point, Midas Payment LTD made it theyr goal to solve this argument by securing the value and by reducing the barriers to entry, allowing cryptocurrencies to be used by anyone, not just miners.

Today they are excited to bring to the table theyr newest innovation, MidasCoin. A cryptocurrency with 0 Premine, no IPO, and directly backed by its own independent reserve.

The value of MidasCoin is backed, guaranteed, and transparent at every moment. The guaranteed value can be withdrawn at any ATM worldwide through Midas MasterCard (Debit Card) or redeemed for it's gold weight at corporate site MidasPay.io.

The same applies to the Scrypt mining profitability of mining MidasCoin at the official pool MidasPool.com.

Midas Payment LTD bridge the gap between the consumers, miners, and merchants, allowing real world applications to make use of MidasCoin by providing not just the currency, but a complete network of services integrated with MidasCoin. This is not a "future development promise"; all the services are already available today.

Take a seat, your MidasCoin journey begins here.

Midascoin Guaranteed Value

The investors behind Midas Payment LTD belong to a large franchise of pawn shops; managing several brands and shops within various cities across Europe, with a significant presence in Rome, Madrid, Lisbon, London, Paris, Brussels, Vienna, and Amsterdam.

They’ve ventured in the platform development and committed to fund the Gold Reserve during the MidasCoin enhanced distribution timeframe of 36 months.

The end goal is to establish a payment network with a revenue model based on transaction volume, used to sell their brand products, while making merchant API available to anyone looking to quickly integrate MidasCoin into their existing online shop.

The starting gold reserve is 20000 grams, and the guaranteed MINIMUM daily increase is 333 grams for the first 12 months, 666 grams for months 12 to 24, and 1500 grams for month 24 to 36. The value of MidasCoin can be calculated by dividing the gold reserve with the total amount of MidasCoins to be issued within 36 months (starting with 20,000/ 7,611,236). The Midascoin value is recalculated every 10 seconds, based on the daily increment.

What is Proof of Mining?

Proof of Mining (PoM) is a brand new distribution system developed exclusively for MidasCoin. It is compatible with your existing scrypt tools (including mining hardware), but with a twist!

The Proof of Mining distribution system uses a different approach to securing the MidasCoin blockchain. Instead of “wasting unneeded hash power” for securing the network, which unless under attack can be secured with much less hash power, it uses 95% of the hash power to “secure another” blockchain. This helps build a reserve fund that grants the backed MidasCoin value, actual and future.

In case of an attack against the network, the Proof Of Mining system will automatically detect the takeover attempt, driving the necessary hashpower to the block generation node, for all the time needed to null the attack.

Last but not least, the more hashpower the PoM network receive, the more increase the midascoin reserve fund, and so the MidasCoin guaranteed value.

It works the same as regular pool mining any PoW coin; you point your miners at a pool and you’ll get coins in return. However, what happens behind the scenes is a bit different.

Because of the technology behind PoM, the only pool that can be used to get MidasCoins is MidasPool.

PoM pool uses miners hash power on a scrypt-variable algorithmn, similar to that of a multipool. In return MidasPool reward miners with MidasCoins, which are instantly weighted by the Midas Payment network at a guaranteed value and can be withdrawn at any ATM worldwide minutes after mining! (or spend them at Midas WebShop and third party shops)

MidasPool.com applies a 0% mining fee and has a unique referral system that pays you a 2.5% bonus on all the mined coins generated from your referral tree.


What is the Taxation?

The Midas Payment Network is the first altcoin venture with a clean and transparent revenue model.

You know HOW we make money, and as a promise to the public audience, we will never try to hide our revenue model.

This allows us to function efficiently and exclude things like premine or IPOs for MidasCoin. Furthermore this fee will contribute to the future development of the Midas network and services.

The transaction tax start at 1% and is automatically added to every transaction. It will decrease over time, every 12 months, until it drops down to 0.25%. This decrease is directly related with the block reduction scheme.

The transaction taxation address is public: MEBtn6UsbMNp7boqZ9NA61jc196k3tUwLH

Midas Payment LTD does not have control over any MidasCoin except for what is collected from the transaction tax.
We strongly suggest that any altcoin project without a clean revenue model should be avoided 100%. This is because you will likely face a grey financial scheme, also known as a pump and dump.
