In the middle of January, we started to distribute our tokens. Although we’re still continuing to do so, the number of holders have already received their assets. Thus, in today’s post, we decided to remind you what is PTI as well as share some information about the unexpected bonus you can expect.

To date, the PTI token is a transitional currency to our main asset called PTM. As well as PTM, the entire PTI pool was created with the help of EOS smart-contracts and distributed according to our tokenomics (page 22 in White Paper). Why did not we switch to the main asset immediately? Because the whole system is in the test phase. In such a vast ecosystem like ours, all elements should run very accurately, and therefore, debugging takes time. At the moment, when tokens are sent to their owners, we are looking at the behavior of the economic model and test whether the hypotheses are correct. As you might remember, our goal is to make an environment where the value of our token correlates with the purchasing power and habits of cryptocurrency customers, as well as the number of Merchants who convert cryptocurrency into local fiat currency. Simply put, the environment where PTM token shows an approximate dynamic of growth or decline of the market involvement. However, this concerns the future. Let’s talk about the present.

It’s not a secret that any holder of any asset is interested in the growth of their asset’s price. The reality is that with the release of a large number of assets to the market (like our distribution), plans can be somewhat disregarded. Although we try to fail-safe the price with our economic models, we cannot influence the holders themselves. If the overwhelming number of the holder will sell their assets on exchanges, it’s evident that the price will drop. What is to be done? From this moment onward goes the most exciting and enjoyable part. The good old marketing and incentive mechanics for all PTI holders come into play.

Some number of supporting events have already procured in our tactical plans. Thanks to each of them we’ll be able to interest users in keeping tokens within their wallets. In return, they will be able to get different rewards. Unfortunately, we can not disclose all of our plans, but we can shed light on some mechanics to describe how it will happen. So, why is it worth keeping PTI?

Collaborations

We have repeatedly talked about the importance of working with other communities. Very often, after adding projects to our core or, for example, to Paytomat wallet, we organize prize drawings and airdrops with our partners. Our token holders receive free coins. The more tokens you have, the bigger the prize you can get.

Contests

If you follow our official community, you will notice that from time to time we hold small contests with cash (and not only!) prizes. Conditions are always a little different, but over time, only tokens holders and our wallet users will be able to participate in such events. This is a great way to make some fast money.

Blind Luck

We value our community, and therefore sometimes it is just nice to pamper its members with small prizes. Do you support the project by storing tokens? Next time random.org can choose you, and you will get a prize with our PTI or some other coins.

Trading Contests

We are continually expanding the list of exchanges on which PTI is traded, and try to work with existing ones. This type of contest is ideal for traders who do not just sell an asset but trade it creating liquidity. In return, we or the exchange reward such people with valuable prizes such as crypto or some trading discounts.

However, these are just four examples of what you can get with PTI in your wallet. Be sure; we’ve prepared many more surprises, so your story with PTI (and PTM in the future) can be the beginning of a very long and monetary path. See you!
