Founded in 2010 and throughout our years of actual business experience, B.A. Toys has developed a plan in which we eliminate competition by outlasting them. Our mode of operation means we stock up heavily on products that we anticipate will have high demand and collector appreciative value. We sell just enough of these items through day-to-day operations to cover our operating costs. As we are able to pay off invoices in full, we then warehouse the remaining items until other competitors are out of stock.

We sell inventory on a 5 year cycle. We have already achieved this in our previous years' of business, it is not a "hypothetical business model".

Items declared to be of substantial collector value or high demand are designated as requiring Toyken. Upon a Toyken designation, we will NEVER take fiat currency for them again. At times, we will even designate current items and/or pre-orders, high in demand or low in supply, as requiring Toyken immediately.

We have in-depth experience promoting collectible items, as is evidenced by the unique relationship we previously built with Mega Brands, allowing us to be the first to unveil a majority of Mega Bloks items globally. Our business model and relationship with Mega Brands is covered in depth in our full document.

We will be adding several niche lines not available in big box stores. These lines already have a loyal following of customers understanding that they must secure their items from specialty retailers.

B.A Toys' will also be developing ToyTrax, which is basically a ticker-like platform for the tracking of toy market values, in real time, as well as for documenting the sale and trading of high-end collectibles. This will all be powered by Toyken.

B.A. Toys Pilot, our affiliate program, is also powered by Toyken.

We are currently migrating our main site to batoys.com (g-rated version for search engines).

Additionally, we will be developing a third-party marketplace in which other sellers will be able to list toy & collectible products. B.A. Toys will charge a commission to broker the transactions. These 3rd party-sellers will be required to designate a minimum of the products they offer, as requiring Toyken. The percentage of the products requiring Toyken will be in the neighborhood of 2-3% of the items they list in total (2 or 3 per 100). They can choose to list more items for Toyken if they desire. The advantage to this will be greatly reduced listing fees and commissions per sale.

Our Toyken offering will be LIVE from The Waves Exchange on May 4th, 2019!

Toyken pricing will be calculated to reflect 50-70% of its minimum, on-site(badasstoysforbadassboys.com) redemption value, Check our main site for additional details including our team, white paper & updates to our offering!

Note: B.A. Toys was founded as a Bootstrap startup!
(definition) is a situation in which an entrepreneur starts a company with little capital. An individual is said to be bootstrapping when he or she attempts to found and build a company from personal finances or from the operating revenues of the new company.

It requires strict budgeting and management accountability. It teaches one how to succeed creatively, stretching resources, networks and money as far as you can. Bootstrapping can rarely be taught; It is a particularly powerful and priceless skill set, one that is severely lacking from cryptocurrency projects.

Develop B.A. Toys Marketplace, a 3rd party sales platform for Toys & Collectibles only. B.A. Toys will provide guidance and wholesale opportunities to qualified Toy retailers through the B.A. Toys Power Membership powered by Toyken. Sellers on our BAToys.com 3rd party marketplace must designate a certain percentage of the total number of collectible items they have for sale on said marketplace to be traded in Toyken(likely 5% at minimum). This means if a seller has 300 items for sale on said marketplace, 15 of them will be traded only for Toyken. BAToys.com will do the conversions for them, they will just need to set their wallet id and specify said products through a product-feed-file or by clicking a button if they are small sellers that create products one at a time.<br />

Fan Controlled Football League
Expected to kick off in 2018, the Fan-Controlled Football League (FCFL) reimagines American football – and the experience of being a die-hard fan – for the digital age. The FCFL will seek to deliver a compelling football product that captivates a broader digital audience. It will feature fast-paced, high-scoring action that embraces the spread-football evolution of the NCAA football and NFL games while enabling a diverse set of styles and strategies on both offense and defense ─ all controlled by the fans. Player personnel and real-time play calling decisions are all made by fans via the league’s blockchain platform, making fans the coach and general manager for their team. Fans will no longer be just viewers; rather, they will be active contributors to the games they are watching. This is a transformational shift in the way sports fans engage and interact: no more sitting back and passively watching as a team’s roster takes shape or a game unfolds. They will be essential to the league’s product both on the field and off. This is the democratization of sports, and it’s about to be realized through the most innovative sports league ever created, thanks to decentralized blockchain technology.

BlockStorage
BlockStorage is a protocol built to connect and abstract all communications with the blockchain, simplifying the user’s life. The current state of cloud storage, with dozens of reports of security issues, the overall perception of lack of privacy, along with the usual high monthly fees calls for a new kind of storage service, one that guarantees data privacy at lower (or no) costs. From those concerns, we envisioned BlockStorage, a storage protocol based on the principles of ease of use and privacy. Built with the casual user in mind, it allows anyone to store and recover any type of file on any existing blockchain, without cost (besides the transaction fee to store the file). BlockStorage leverages blockchain technology to ensure the safest and most transparent storage experience. Our protocol allows users to seamlessly upload files to the blockchain of their choice while taking care of the data encryption and the respective blockchain protocol. And, because of the inherent nature of blockchains, it assures that the data will never be lost. In short, it will store the files for life without any recurring costs.

Planport
The current supply chain industry is a $64 trillion market that employs millions around the world. Planport is building a decentralized business-to-business platform for the supply chain industry and our initial product focuses on procurement and its components. Procurement is one of the core sectors of the supply chain industry. It involves buying of goods and services that enable organizations to carry out their day-to-day operations. Someone involved in procurement may be responsible for sourcing raw materials from suppliers globally and bringing them into an organization by working with C-level executives, finance and engineering as well as external suppliers. While procurement is a vital aspect of operations, the process has critical problems that are costly for all businesses from small companies to big corporations. The obstacles include legacy systems with inefficient and closed networks that are expensive, risky and time-consuming, cash flow problems that take weeks or months, contractual nightmares, poor supplier management and closed and centralized access to goods and services. A company spends 30 to 70% of its revenue on outsourced goods and services, yet many still underinvest. The Planport Platform powered by the PORT token aims to solve these problems by unifying the entire procurement process end-to-end and empowering enterprises and suppliers using a decentralized business-to-business network in the supply chain industry. Buyers and sellers can use the platform for procurement, auctions, payments, and contract management. At the end of the supplier and buyer interaction, our invoice marketplace enables suppliers to push invoices to a network of global investors where they can access a diverse range of funders. This marketplace is built on the Blockchain distributed technology allowing participants to have a secure and efficient way to settle trade finance assets in the $3 trillion factoring industry. Planport, as part of Planport Platform, has built and is building the following products: Planport RFX - a procurement product for buyers and sellers. Planport Supplier Manager - a product for enterprises to communicate with and assess suppliers. Planport Auctions - a product for performing reverse auctions with multiple suppliers. Planport Payment Systems - a payment system empowered by the PORT token for business-to-business payments. Planport Contracts - a full contract management product for creation, storage, and discovery of contracts. Planport Experts Networks - an on-demand network of supply chain experts for enterprises. Plnaport Invoice Marketplace - a trade finance network for suppliers. Planport will revolutionise the supply chain industry by building a platform that streamlines the processes and is built on trust, mutual benefit and user-centric as part of the Web 3.0 by using the Blockchain technology.
