Segment 2: 5 best questions from twitter
Q1: TKNT looks good but it confuses me that there are so many other Blockchain project. What should I pay attention in TKNT to give it the importance it deserves? What are your planning to achieve with your project? from @LUONGHANHPHUC1
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: thank you for the question and interest
Originally, there was no concept of returning profits in Defi. However, starting with Compound platform, they have recently been rewarding their governance tokens. Of course, you can build yield farming within our platform as well. However, while Defi projects use it for promotion to increase their TVL (Total Deposit Volume), TKNT does not require unreasonable interest payment for it can be simply mined through Bet-Mining at TKN.COM, active within existing user base. Plus the value of the token continues to rise due to the half-life coming from Bet-Mining.
Q2: Where is the market that TKNT is focusing on developing? How do you feel about the Viet Nam market? Is it a suitable place for TKNT to focus on development? from @huskyxzx
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: Currently we put the most energy on Korean market, but in our foundation, people are from all over the world. Europe, US, China, South Korea, Japan, Mexico, etc. Seeing that we are getting a lot of attention from Vietnam and Indonesian users, we definately consider Vietnam market to be suitable for developing TKNT as well.
Q3: Most new DeFi projects are just copies of existing ones, they are just useless. So, what’s unique about your project & what makes tknt trustable as a long term project for users and investors? from @Trung34566
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: Again, as mentioned above, Originally, there was no concept of returning profits in Defi. However, starting with Compound platform, they have recently been rewarding their governance tokens. Of course, you can build yield farming within our platform as well. However, while Defi projects use it for promotion to increase their TVL (Total Deposit Volume), TKNT does not require unreasonable interest payment for it can be simply mined through Bet-Mining at TKN.COM, active within existing user base. Plus the value of the token continues to rise due to the half-life coming from Bet-Mining.
Blockelite Host: Can you say more about Bet-Mining?
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: Sure, on gaming platforms where TKNT is listed, users can mine TKNT according to their bet amount, and can mine anytime, anywhere, just through their phone or PC. TKNT can be only achieved by bet-mining at TKN.COM or purchase in the exchanges at the moment.
As every 10m pieces of TKNT mined, double-halvening starts. Which means, now user can get 1 TKNT by playing 8USDT worth of betting (previously 2USDT before 1st halvening at September), and at 2nd halvening, user can get 1TKNT by playing 34USDT worth of betting with their BTC, ETH, USDT, or TKNT. This process allows tokens to have both transactional and intrinsic value, which provides the basis power to TKNT Foundation in the market.
Blockelite Host: so great, people will be very excited about it
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: Yes, simple and profitable model
Q4: Which specific about technology and strategy of TKNT that make you believe it will be successful and what does TKNT plan do to attract more users in the upcoming time? from @QuyenCao11
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: Regarding the features of TKNT to attract users, we find two important factors: Simplicity and transparancy.
Users can mine TKNT just by betting inside TKN.COM, win or lose, you will get your TKNT. In the near future you will be able to trade your mined TKNT inside the DeFi or trading platforms.
Our foundation has people from various countries including Europe, the United States, China, Korea, Japan, and Mexico. Therefore, we have a promotional strategy tailored to each country.
Although the technology is crucial, the platform is untact without strong marketing. We have a very strong marketing team to disclose the project to the world. Our marketing team educates people about what Defi is, how easy it is to use, and what benefits it can benefit from.We will convey the best of our project according to today’s trend to have people easily use our platform, bet and mine TKNT, and stake and pay with TKNT.
Q5: What’s the most played games in TKNT? If ever I will register in your platfom, what’s the easiest game you can recommend for those who are not a gamer like me? from @kizapiza
Benjamin Woo – CEO of TKNT: FYI, TKNT is not a gaming platform. TKN.COM and TKNT are seperate foundations in alliance. The most played game inside TKN.COM is coinflip and linear dice. Coinflip is simple, all you have to do is choose between heads or tails, and Keno is just like a lottery system, where you choose the numbers between 1–40 and win according to the numbers that are correctly chosen.
