STOREPLEX - The Decentralised Global Marketplace For Products and Services On The Blockchain
PRESENTATION
A storm has hit the investment market which we are not going to recover from. Crypto investment is that storm. With strict capital controls in place by most countries to control the flow of money and charge high taxes, cryptocurrency gained usage in circumventing capital controls and taxes, leading to an increase in demand. Cryptocurrency has been able to present an easy to use digital alternative to fiat currencies. Offering frictionless transactions and inflation control, investors have been prudent enough to add these currencies in their diversified portfolios as an asset, as the size of the market does not represent a systemic risk. Cryptocurrency employs the use of cryptography that assures high-security processes and verifies transactions personal to each user. Hence, counterfeiting and anonymous transactions are impossible to achieve.
While this revolution is gaining wide acceptance, Storeplex, a decentralised marketplace that allows anyone to buy and sell products or services for cryptocurrencies on a global scale has arrived.
Now that I have your attention, let’s get right to it.
What exactly is STOREPLEX?
Storeplex is the world’s first fully functioning ecommerce marketplace that allows users to buy and sell products and services on the blockchain. The marketplace is seeking to spark a revolution within ecommerce by combining one of the most profitable industries with blockchain technology. By using the Ethereum blockchain, Storeplex is able to achieve a decentralised marketplace while utilising all of the advantages that come with blockchain technology. The use of smart contracts provides our users with a secure and user-friendly approach to cryptocurrency ecommerce.
A project of this size and ambition requires funding to continuously improve, evolve and innovate as the leading decentralised marketplace. This is why they are crowdfunding via an initial coin offering of our PLEX token. They believe that this method of funding is the most beneficial to their project and to their users as it allows the community to actively participate in the development of the marketplace. In return, participants of the initial coin offering will receive PLEX tokens at a heavily discounted rate. This provides a great opportunity to increase initial investment while supporting a revolutionary project.
The Objective
The objective is to combine ecommerce and blockchain technology to create a global marketplace, while solving numerous problems that are present with centralised marketplaces, such as eBay and Amazon. By raising funds via an Initial Coin Offering, they are able to further develop the Storeplex marketplace and implement an efficient marketing strategy. This ultimately provides a better end-product to our users. The token sale will allow investors to purchase PLEX tokens at a reduced rate, which helps fund the project. Investors will receive a utility token that can be used on the Storeplex marketplace as well as traded on supported exchanges.
Problems and Solution
Being the latest blockchain project aiming to disrupt a multi-trillion dollar industry, the Storeplex marketplace allows both everyday users and merchants to buy and sell products and services for cryptocurrency by combining one of the world’s most profitable industries with blockchain technology. One of the biggest problems currently facing the ecommerce industry is fraud.
The Storeplex marketplace is a revolutionary step in combating fraudulent transactions and users on ecommerce marketplaces by ensuring that its users and funds are secured and protected by smart contracts. Through the utilisation of the Ethereum blockchain and the use of custom built smart contracts, Storeplex is able to provide its users with a secure and user-friendly approach to cryptocurrency ecommerce. The platform also charges its users no final value or listing fees.
