e-Money is a blockchain-based payment platform that aims to bridge the legacy banking system with a single efficient blockchain layer. Built on Cosmos technology, the e-Money protocol is built for the issuance of a range of interest-bearing currency-backed stablecoins.

The company vision is to create a level playing field, providing equal access to transparent financial services, on a global scale, while greatly reducing cost. To that end, e-Money intends to release a range of currency-backed stablecoins in a system that is fair and transparent, accessible for all, and with near-zero fees, instant settlements, and immediate finality. eMoney is not designed to act as a wholesale replacement for the existing financial system, but can instead be thought of as the layer two solution for traditional finance.

Project Development

e-Money was founded in March 2016 by a Danish fintech company. e-Money is proud of its journey to date in creating the Next Generation of Stablecoins.

2021 has been a whirlwind period for the company, marked by achieving key project milestones, strategic partnerships, and push towards user-adoption of its stablecoins EEUR and $NGM token.

In January 2022 e-Money published its latest proof of funds audit report by Ernst & Young. The published report reiterates how e-Money’s European stablecoins are fully collateralized, backed with bank deposits held at commercial banks.

Full company’s roadmap that covers events that have taken place over the past 6 years and that are planned for the year 2022 can be found here.

$NGM

A single staking token (NGM) is used to secure the e-Money network by staking it with one or more validators. The total supply of NGM is continuously inflated. The inflation rate is currently 10% per year. The inflated tokens are distributed pro-rata as staking rewards to accounts that staked tokens.

  • NGM supply increases with inflation for staking rewards and is reduced by buyback and burning. The NGM token must be staked to receive any rewards.
  • Transaction fees grow with the adoption of the e-Money network for payments and trading.
  • Stablecoin rewards grow with the adoption (AUM) of e-Money stablecoins.
  • Stablecoin adoption can happen both inside the e-Money network and outside, including all zones in the Cosmos ecosystem and planned bridges to Ethereum, Avalanche and Polkadot.

Token Distribution

NGM tokens are available on KuCoin, AscendEx and Uniswap.

European Stablecoins

e-Money is expanding beyond the USD-dominated stablecoin market to deliver trusted currencies that can be used in both retail and cross-border payments.

  • e-Money offers multiple currency-backed stablecoins, each using a dynamic peg that tracks the underlying interest rate.
  • The total supply of each stablecoin is continuously inflated. The rate is variable and set per stablecoin, currently 0.5% per year.
  • The increased supply for each stablecoin is used to buy back NGM tokens in the market (DEX) against each stablecoin. Purchased NGM tokens are burned.

About Citadel.one

Citadel.one is a non-custodial Proof-of-Stake platform for the management and storage of crypto assets. Users can create public addresses for all supported networks with one seed phrase, connect their Ledger or Trezor device, or import an address generated by another wallet.

The analytical dashboard provides relevant information on wallets’ balances and networks’ main metrics. In Citadel.one, we standardize the semantics, making interactions with the platform as easy as possible. The same goes for network metrics. By using universal terms, we are making it easier for users to understand and compare networks.

One of the main functions of the Citadel.one platform is participation in the PoS consensus — users can stake and delegate their assets, claim rewards, and follow the latest network proposals in the voting tab.

Citadel.one offers its users instant cryptocurrency exchange services that allow fast and secure crypto assets swap. It is also possible to buy and sell crypto with a credit or debit card. Citadel.one users can track rewards, withdrawals, transfers, and deposits across all supported networks and add comments to these transactions.

Among PoS platforms, Citadel.one supports BAND network ($BAND) Secret Network ($SCRT), Cosmos ($ATOM), ICON ($ICX), IOST ($IOST), KAVA ($KAVA), BSC ($BNB), Juno ($JUNO), Comdex ($CMDX) and Tezos ($XTZ). We also support Ethereum, Bitcoin, and Tether ($USDT) for our users’ convenience. Mobile and desktop versions, new networks, including Polkadot are scheduled for the upcoming updates. Furthermore, delving into the idea of true decentralization, we envision Citadel.one a decentralized autonomous organization and a genuinely community-owned platform in the nearest future.
