In the white paper, Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, Satoshi Nakamoto wrote that “what is needed is an electronic payment system based on cryptographic proof instead of trust, allowing any two willing parties to transact directly with each other without the need for a trusted third party.”

This vision is turning into a reality. And it’s a beautiful thing.

However, we aren’t in full control yet. Mammoth third-party ecosystems still profit the most from our transactions, even when a cryptocurrency is used. There has to be a better way.

Enter Pocketinns, a cryptomarketplace working towards that better way.

We’re a community-driven ecosystem

Today, third-party platforms still facilitate our transactions for the most part. Working within monopolized environments, these businesses dictate the terms and conditions of trade. With such power, they can charge high commissions and require we give up our valuable data.

At Pocketinns, we aim to put power in the hands of the users. We’re the world’s first cryptomarketplace — a blockchain-based ecosystem where buyers and sellers have full control.

Leveraging blockchain technology, we’ve implemented cheaper monetization models, enabling users to trade any product and service, from vacation, car rentals and real estate to ecommerce and creative work, without the need to answer to a third-party. In this sense, we plan to be a marketplace of marketplaces. Finally, we can be free to reap the full rewards of the business we conduct.

We ensure buyers and sellers have control and benefit the most

With our decentralized platform, buyers and sellers enjoy the following:

  • Absolute full control over your privacy and data and you control your information yourself.
  • No unfair commissions (our first marketplace, home accommodations and vacation rentals, has already launched and there are 0% commissions)
  • Access to countless marketplaces operating under one roof, providing a quality service and experience that’s comparable to the biggest and best third-party marketplaces
  • Transactions supported by a powerful internal financial network and powered by a community currency — the PINNS token

As noted in our white paper, our goal is to provide a truly free flow of trade and commerce across the globe. Our decentralized network will allow users to transact easily, quickly, and safely — with control and benefits simply not given by giant corporations today.

The democratization of trade is coming

By employing a blockchain-oriented model, we can return control to those doing the transactions: the buyers and sellers. Indeed, we’re building something that will democratize trade. And we’re doing it in a legal, stable manner.

Do you believe in the vision? We’re calling all those who do to join. Our ITO begins January 15th, 2018 and lasts 16 days.
