Kinesis has introduced yield-bearing digital currencies, based 1:1 on physical, allocated, gold and silver. When you purchase Kinesis currencies, you are simultaneously allocated real gold or silver stored securely in one of several third-party vaults around the world ensuring no counterparty risk. These digital coins (KAUs represents the gold-based coin and KAGs represents silver), can easily be spent at point of sale through the Kinesis debit card, allowing users to make fast and safe transactions. Holders of Kinesis currencies can redeem the coin and take delivery of the underlying physical precious metal guaranteeing intrinsic value with this cryptocurrency.

The Kinesis Velocity Token (KVT) public sale is now live, with a successful pre-sale raise of $55 million Kinesis is on track to achieve the hard cap target of $300 million.

This initiative was founded by ABX, a leading online exchange platform for physical bullion, with deep expertise in the gold industry.

Zortrax
Join the world's first ICO from a global 3D printers manufacturer. Be part of a groundbreaking opportunity to participate directly into the rapidly growing 3D printing industry. Zortrax, a producer of 3D printers and post-processing devices, introduces ZRXT tokens - bridging the crypto world with real-world technology. Zortrax Token (ZRXT) is a utility token that connects the innovative 3D printing ecosystem of Zortrax with the decentralized economy. It provides both investors and customers with real, on-chain benefits — from profit exposure via buybacks to valuable product discounts. Problem/Solution: Traditional equity and reward systems limit flexibility and exclude global retail participants. Zortrax Token introduces a hybrid model: token-based buybacks as a form of profit sharing, and utility-based discounts to reward brand loyalty and long-term engagement. Features: Profit Sharing via Buybacks: Zortrax uses a portion of its quarterly operational profits to buy back Zortrax Tokens from Uniswap v4, directly supporting token demand and price. Product Discounts Through Token Utility: - Lock-to-Discount: Users can lock Zortrax Tokens in a smart contract to receive up to 40% discount on eligible products. The amount and duration of the lock determine the discount tier. - One-Time Vouchers: Users can purchase discount vouchers (up to 40%) using tokens, without locking. This enables immediate utility and flexibility. DEX Liquidity: Tokens are freely tradable on Uniswap v4, allowing decentralized global access and real-time market pricing.
