Abstract How does the Auscoin token
solve this?

The commerce and banking sectors underpin


the entire economy, yet they’ve only
marginally innovated in the last 30 years.
Many business models are completely
excluded from participating in the global
economy due to high transaction fees, long
clearing times, and other legacy limitations on How
does the
connecting people to do business together. Auscoin
token
Blockchain technology provides a compelling solve
this?
alternative to the traditional banking system.
Transactions can be completed with low fees.
Micro-payments no longer require an excess
of 50% of their value to be drained away to
the banking system. Above all, individuals can
manage their own assets and act largely as
their own bank.

Mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies has


not yet occurred. We believe this is because,

general public this level of learning can be
confronting and represent a time
commitment they don’t have. How does the Auscoin
token solve this?
AUSCOIN solves this problem with a plan to
deliver a nation-wide network of 1200+ ATMs
which bring cryptocurrencies and blockchain
to the mainstream and allowing people who
haven’t the time to learn about the
technology to buy and sell cryptocurrencies
transact using a simple, user friendly
interface. These are Bitcoin ATMs - how
is this relevant to the Auscoin
token?

AUSCOIN - A Cryptocurrency For Daily Life contracts does
this refer to?
Our vision is to capitalise on the potential to integrate Bitcoin and cryptocurrency into daily life.

This will completely change the way the world transacts; revolutionising conventional contracts
between individuals, businesses, organisations and everyone in between. How will the Auscoin token be
‘revolutionary’ in this way?
AUSCOIN Group is highly focused on two primary goals:

After our four week trials with our first ATMs, we’ve seen an average of $182,000 transacted per
week. As we expand the size of our ATM network, this number will increase. With very little
marketing and no mainstream adoption; we are aiming for $10,000 average turnover per day per
ATM. Note trial ATMs were strategically located in businesses owned by Auscoin founders.

On the 12th Jan 2018 there were only 23 Bitcoin ATM’s in Australia. https://coinatmradar.com/country/13/bitcoin-atm-australia

Auscoin
ATMs Tokens held by the AUSCOIN Group are hard-locked for a minimum of three years, meaning they are
not available for issue or sale by AUSCOIN Group. The AUSCOIN group does not intend to release
more than five million AUSCOIN from the reserve pool for funding of ongoing operations per year
after the 4th of December 2020. It will take the AUSCOIN Group approximately thirteen years to sell
all of the reserved tokens (if this is required). This hard-lock illustrates our commitment to the
success of AUSCOIN. Why would this be required?
These are Bitcoin ATMs, not Auscoin ATMs
In addition to AUSCOIN, our ATMs will also allow users to exchange other cryptocurrencies including
Ethereum, and other Alternative Coins (known as AltCoins) to and from Australian dollars. We have
received expressions of interest from leading Australian cryptocurrencies and will release more
information in the future. What “leading Australian cryptocurrencies”? No Australian
cryptocurrencies at present are designed to be used as a daily currency.

Seed Round
A seed round commenced on 4 December 2017 at 4pm (AEST) and closed at the same time 1 day
later with a total of AU$1,500,000 raised.

Air Drop
AUSCOIN Group realises that the increase in the price of Bitcoin since our Seed Round closed could
be seen to have eroded the value of contributions made by those who were our earliest supporters.
As such we have decided to include a 1,000,000 AUSCOIN Air-Drop to Seed Round purchasers of
AUSCOIN Tokens in proportion to their purchase of the total amount sold. The Air-Drop will take
place when the ICO closes and tokens are issued to participants.

Pre-ICO
Due to overwhelming demand, we have elected to move directly to an ICO for our token sale to help
bring our vision to life sooner!

ICO
The ICO will open on 12 February 2018 at 6pm (AEDT) and will close at the earlier of 28 days after
the ICO opens or when the ICO Allocation has been reached (ICO Period). During the ICO Period,
pre-orders for AUSCOIN can be placed by sending ETH to our smart contract which will be published
shortly. You will also be able to take part using our decentralised application (dapp) with Metamask
or Mist. The price of AUSCOIN pre-ordered during the ICO Period will be eighty cents USD (0.80
cents USD), with tiered bonuses for each block of 10,000,000 tokens as set out in the ICO allocation.

Securing Orders
Users who submitted an order3 during the Seed Round which has been accepted will be provided
their tokens to their nominated Ethereum wallet at the end of the ICO Period. Those users who
submit an order3 during the ICO will be provided with a digital receipt and will receive their AUSCOIN
into their Ethereum wallet directly from our smart contract. Users should not use an account on a
cryptocurrency exchange to order AUSCOIN as they will not receive their AUSCOIN. Users
participating in the ICO must send Ether from their own wallet.

Delivery of AUSCOIN
AUSCOIN will be sent to users using an ERC-20 transfer. Users will be able to verify their coin balance
using smart contract details which will be disclosed prior to the ICO.

Several times this paper has discussed confusion
around wallets etc as a barrier to mainstream
The Technology adoption; how will this be resolved by Auscoin if it
is no different to any other ERC20 token?

AUSCOIN is built on the ERC-20 standard, which enables AUSCOIN to work with most Ethereum
wallets. Backed by the power of the Ethereum network, transactions happen quickly and with low
transaction fees. Holders of AUSCOIN are able to use industry standard wallets, including hardware
wallets, to secure their holdings.

Because we are built on top of the standard Ethereum blockchain, AUSCOIN will continue to advance
as Ethereum advances, including enhancements such as sharding4 and Proof of Stake (PoS)5. We
believe Ethereum is the ideal platform to support AUSCOIN as it becomes a world class option for
payments in Australia.

The Ethereum platform is expected to provide for a transaction rate of over 10,000 transactions per
second once the Proof of Stake Consensus Protocol in the Serenity Phase of Ethereum’s roadmap
development is deployed6.

In line with the AUSCOIN Group’s plans to be a highly liquid cryptocurrency for everyday use, implemented?
AUSCOIN has future plans to bring Point of Sale (POS) systems to bricks and mortar merchants. The
POS terminal is intended to be positioned alongside traditional EFTPOS and Credit systems. This will
offer AUSCOIN users another means to transact during their everyday life. This should add further
value and stability to AUSCOIN cryptocurrency transactions. Furthermore, availability to and ease of
transaction is likely to ease any consumer concerns about liquidity and rapidly bring AUSCOIN into
everyday circulation and acceptance. How? Further detail is required for this to make sense.

projects?

The AUSCOIN in this second portion will have a lockout period of three years with the lockout term
ending after 4th of December 2020. Therefore, this portion of funding will not enter any exchange
until that time and its use is only for the long-term support of AUSCOIN as outlined below in the
Financial Plan - Post Lockout Period.

FINANCIAL PLAN - POST LOCKOUT PERIOD


AUSCOIN Group intends to release no more than 5M tokens per year after the end of the lockout
period and to use the tokens as follows:

10M Tokens (10% of circulating supply) - founders and advisors pool


10M Tokens (10% of circulating supply) - investment pool for other blockchain projects
10M Tokens (10% of circulating supply) - research and development pool
20M Tokens (20% of circulating supply) - contingency reserve for operations of AUSCOIN
Note pg.5 states that “1% of the value of all transactions” will be retained in a wallet and used to grow
the Auscoin network - why is there no further detail on this under the funding and finance headings?
