trade.io is the next generation financial institution platform based on blockchain technology, giving ultimate transparency and security. ( A blockchain is a continuously growing list of record called blocks, which are linked and secured using cryptography. Each block typically contains a hash pointer as a link to a previous block, a timestamp and transaction data. By design, blockchains are inherently resistant to modification of the data. It is an open, distributed ledger that can record transactions between two parties efficiently and in a verifiable and permanent way. For use as a distributed ledger, a blockchain is typically managed by a peer to peer network collectively adhering to a protocol for validating new blocks. Once recorded, the data in any given block cannot be altered retroactively without the alteration of all subsequent blocks, which requires collusion of the network majority). Taking the benefits from years of experience in trading, investment banking & fintech sectors, and consolidating them with the power and transparency of the distributed ledger, trade i.o has created a remarkable product that will revolutionize asset trading and investment banking. As well as asset trading, the trade.io exchange supports a more efficient and secure method of listing assets in the crypto-economy, using the trusted record keeping power of blockchain.

Vision of trade i.o

getting the necessary licences or authorizations for:
• Traditional Investment Banking services.
• Trading on our trade.io exchange for institutional and individuals.

• To become the most cost-effective platform to support investment banking services with reduced advisory expenses.
• To become the biggest trading liquidity pool consist of Trade Token holders for the benefit of Trade Token holders.
• To be in the top 5 crypto-asset based on market capitalisation.

The Trade Token.

Trade Token is a utility token that empowers frictionless transactions of a range of assets on the trade.io exchange as well as acting as a medium of exchange and a store of value. Anyone can use Trade Token to participate in the trade.io shared liquidity pool, filled the liquidity pool with fresh assets and receive daily payouts in their trade.io wallet in fiat and cryptocurrency.
Through the investment banking activity that the firm will aim to offer once authorized, it will be a means of assisting companies to get tokenized or listed via trade.io platform and thus incurring transaction and placement fees, Trade Tokens will become a cryptocurrency with real world value as participating companies will have to lock real-world assets in order to receive Trade Tokens in exchange. It is important to note, that any investment banking or tokenizing activity that trade.io plans to offer will be under the proper regulatory framework and will only be conducted once the appropriate licensing is in place. In future, token holders may also be able to use the Trade Tokens to purchase new issues and IPOs/ ICOs on our standalone trade.io exchange.

Liquidity Pool.

The most sophisticated feature and of course the huge advantage for Trade Tokens holders is the opportunity that they can contribute a selected amount of the assets contained within their e-wallets to the shared, P2P liquidity pool. Half of the profits (or losses) generated will be distributed from the liquidity pool with those subsequently allocated pro-rata to the participants and paid out as fees on a daily basis. In other words, 50% of the daily revenues trade.io generates will be paid from the liquidity pool. After reaching the minimum 2500 Trade Tokens held in the platform’s wallet that grant participants access to the liquidity pool, each participant will be paid a daily reward proportional to the amount of any accepted store of value (BTC, ETH, Trade Tokens, Fiat) contributed to the pool.
The liquidity pool will be offered to the participants once the required regulatory authorization will be obtained.

To participate in liquidity pool, user must have minimum of 2500 Trade Tokens as a membership fee. Assets placed and locked for use by the liquidity pool by the participants, might include currencies such as bitcoins or altcoins and even fiat currency. Upon placing Trade Tokens into the liquidity pool, they will be converted in US $ in no time, and will remain in USD until such time that the participant exits the liquidity pool.
Participants will get their daily payment in proportion to each user’s total contribution in the pool. Daily payments will be estimated on the liquidity pool revenues meeting high water marks. For example if on Day 1,
the liquidity pool achieves a profit of $100, and on Day 2 it incurs a loss of $50, in order for profits to be paid out on future days, the $50 that is lost needs to be recouped. Above the minimum participation amount of 2500 Trade Tokens which acts as a key to access the liquidity pool and its benefits, additional funds contributed to the pool will be allowed also in other cryptocurrencies as well as in fiat currency.
It is very important to note that the benefits from the liquidity pool are not related to the Trade Token, which is only the key to access the pool, but only to the amount of assets which are put into the liquidity pool.
A Graduated Plan will be used when it comes to the daily rewards paid to participants and proportional to each participant’s total contribution in either Trade Token, fiat currency or other cryptocurrencies. Please read the table below.

According to the table, the higher the amount of the participation is, the higher the percentage share in the rewards will be, 2500 Trade Tokens is the minimum number of Trade Tokens that can unlock the deposit in USD up to $2,500 which is locked for full / maximum % of rewards (this last amount and any amount above it carries an additional 10% as a bonus).
