Hyperion Exchange, a subsidiary of Global Blockchain, has signed an MOU with Kinesis Money, a company offering a unique monetary system based on digital gold and silver currencies.
The Kinesis Monetary System is comprised of two digital currencies based on allocated ownership of physical gold (KAU) and silver (KAG) which can be exchanged digitally as an alternative to fiat currency. The transaction fees are accumulated whenever the currencies are sent, spent or traded and are proportionately redistributed to all Kinesis currency holders, incentivizing use.
Holders of the Kinesis Velocity Tokens (KVT), currently being offered in an Initial Token Offering, receive the highest share of these fees, collecting a 20 percent proportionate share as a recurring yield.
The dual purpose of the MOU is to list the Kinesis Velocity Token (KVT) on the Hyperion Exchange, as well as making the Kinesis gold and silver-based digital currencies available as ‘stablecoins’ on the Hyperion Exchange.
The assets offered by Kinesis Money were developed by the institutional gold trading exchange Allocated Bullion Exchange (ABX), which has stringent third-party audit and quality assurance processes in place. KAU and KAG, therefore, provide alternatives to the fiat-based stablecoin cryptocurrencies that have been widely critiqued for failing audits and falling short of the 1:1 allocation of fiat currencies they promised upon purchase.
