ZENGOLD TOKENS EXPLAINED
ZenGold (ZNG)
ZNG is a digital currency developed with blockchain technology and is backed by gold reserves in Shanghai Gold Exchange vault. Users may transfer ZNG using Metaverse blockchain wallets without any special network conditions. Just like other digital currencies, ZNG is crypto-tech secured token, which generates lower transaction costs and has an ability to be used as a payment at any time. Each ZNG token represents one gram of Gold and is divisible into 0.0001 gram. 0.1% of the total value of each transaction is the fee paid by the users of the network and has a cap of 1 ZNG. For instance, User A sends a transaction worth 10 ZNG to user B, A would need to pay extra 0.01 ZNG as the transaction fee.
ZenGold Coin (ZGC)
ZGC represents the right for its holders to receive a share from the generated profit of the ZenGold network. The profit of the network is generated by the users transacting with ZGC and paying a transaction fee.
Initially, 100,000,000 tokens of ZGC will be issued. No inflation rate will be applied. 70% of ZGC would be released to the market, while 10% will be reserved for the ZenGold developing team for future operation and project development, 20% will be assigned to the ZenGold foundation in order to ensure sustainable growth and development of the ecosystem.
