in #tap • 6 years ago (edited)

This article is meant to spark your interest in a project that seeks to make cryptocurrency trading simple and fast, my desire is that, at the end of this article you would have so much reasons to believe in what TAP is trying to achieve. if after reading this article you want more information or get involve with the project I would suggest you read their whitepaper or visit their website Here goes the list.

1.TAP is Meta exchange platform that guarantees simple and fast cryptocurrency trading across many other exchange platform

 Tap is a trading platform, which gives an investor complete access to  multiple exchanges with just a single account. With tap an investor can  do the following 

  • Exchange any alternative crypto currency without having to move funds from one exchange to another 
  •  All your crypto assets are kept in one safe place that you can view anytime 
  • Find the absolute best market price instantly on your phone 

2. TAP is going to solve the problem that is limiting the usage of cryptocurrency as a method of payment

Currently, most vendors don't accept cryptocurrency as a means of payment because of the following reasons:

  • There is a cost involved with converting crypto currency to FIAT.
  • The vendor would need additional point of sale equipment which is unlikely to justify the cost. 
  • Cryptocurrencies are not not steady making accepting crypto risky for the vendor, in oder to use cryptocurrencies as a means of payments the world needs to instantly convert any crypto currency to FIAT and transfer that FIAT at the point of sale via a TAP card. TAP provides this service.

3. TAP is a platform that is design for everybody regardless of cryptocurrency experience

Tap is a platform for all kind of cryptocurrency enthusiast regardless of their experience. With TAP, after a simple registration and KYC process, a new investor can fund their account. Once funded they can buy any supported cryptocurrency at spot rate for a maximum fee of 1.5% through the app. it goes beyond new investors, familiar investor, crypto adopter as well as international travelers can make use of the platform

4. TAP uses a middleware that connect different exchange platform and it also allows seamless cryptocurrency trading

Tap uses an app that serves as an interface to their platform.

5.  TAP ensures high security.

TAP keeps all customer assets in offline/cold storage behind a multi-signatory wallet with the highest grade security. This gives customers peace of mind that their assets are secure. Transactions are run through the hot wallets / liquidity pool, with funds adjusted in the customer’s cold storage account to return funds to the liquidity pool.

6. TAP is very transparent when it comes to charges, there is no hidden charges

The fee for any crypto transaction will be between 0.5% and 1.5% depending on type of transaction. Users can pay the fee in TAP tokens, and doing that will give the user a 25% discount on the transaction fee. 

A customer will be charged a fee if they perform any of the following tasks:

  • Buy a crypto asset with FIAT from their account
  • Buy a crypto asset with another crypto asset
  • Make a purchase on their card where a crypto asset is used to fund the purchase.

7. TAP's token is securely anchored to the success of the project

The value of Tap's token will be anchored to these three features:

  • TAP token can be used to pay transaction/exchange fees and receive a 25% discount. This will encourage users to hold a stock of TAP in their wallet thereby benefiting from reduced fees.
  • Stake TAP for higher card level and better user terms. Staking is when you freeze tokens for a set amount of time. During this time, those tokens can’t be used or withdrawn until the staking period is complete
  • Monthly TAP token burning. Each month, 10% of the profits created by the TAP project will go into burning TAP tokens. This will permanently reduce the total supply of tokens putting upward pressure on the token value.
