Introduction Questions Asked By BlockTalks
Q1. Could you please introduce ZigZag Finance to our community in layman’s term?
Ans — we launched ZIGZAG 2 years ago. This was the first version of the system on EOS. In 2 years we have completely redesigned the system. ZIGZAG v2 is a DeFi system built on IPFS specifically for e-commerce (online shops, casinos, online games). We are not building a complex system with all kinds of smart contracts. An online business has a very clear task — to ensure easy flow of money for users. We are building a system that makes it easy to replenish the balance, withdraw and transfer money without commission. And it’s all decentralized. But at the same time, the business has a transaction control system. This is a mandatory requirement for a legal business.
Q2. What are the advantages of ZigZag to other alternatives in the Blockchain field?
Ans — ZIGZAG is built specifically for corporate use. In it the company pays for transactions, not the user. All transactions are carried out instantly and free of charge.
Q3. What are the major milestones ZigZag achieved so far & what are in the future pipeline?
Ans — Now we have 3000 gaming terminals on which we have to start accepting ZIGZAG as a payment instrument. This is our plan until mid-2021. this is more than enough to reach the $ 10 million valuation. We will continue to develop a network for receiving payments using ZIGZAG.
Questions Asked on Twitter to Yo Mi!
Q1. The project tells us that the acquisition and sale of data between participants is protected by code of conduct and how safe is deployed on the blockchain, but how do you handle regulations while operating on a global scale?
Ans — We use a special consensus mechanism inside the system. It allows you to protect balances and information within the system.
Q2. Why did you decide to create two tokens (zig and zag) for your platform, instead of just one that integrated the features of both?
Ans — We have 2 tokens. ZIG — stablecoin (based on real USD on bank account), ZAG — bonus token (cashback). You can make any payments and deposits to your gaming or casino balance using ZIG. After this you will get ZAG as Cashback. To send cashback we buyback ZAG tokens from exchanges. and ZAG price rises.
Q3. Can you briefly explain how the top milestones that Zigzag team aims to execute before the end of this year or going to execute in future, will help you succeed and what Zigzag may look like in 2020 and beyond?
Ans — We will connect 1500 terminals this year and 1500 until the middle of next year.
Q4. Partnership and community are the keys to the success of such projects. Could you tell me what partnerships ZigZag will develop and what incentives are there for new ZigZag users?
Ans — soon there will be news from our partner. it will be surprise.
Q5. For example, in the future, when Zigzag financr reaches the maximum threshold of total supply. Will the team create additional tokens or create another token to address the scarcity?
Ans — Our goal is to create a deficit, increase prices and liquidity =)
no reason to create new token.
