### What Is Bitlocus (BTL)?

Since 2018 the main goal of Bitlocus has been to remove the complexity of the crypto space for fiat users. Our products for retail and business clients automatically convert between fiat and crypto assets, allowing users to participate in DeFi without ever touching a cryptocurrency wallet or facing other technical barriers.

Our platform users benefit from the fast-growing DeFi ecosystem easily, as they can access selected DeFi protocols with either fiat or crypto. A major advantage of Bitlocus is the user-friendly and no-hassle system that is easy to use even for those unfamiliar with the concept of DeFi.

Bitlocus services include:
* Crypto exchange. 
* DeFi staking, lending and farming platform with fiat access to selected DeFi protocols.
* NFT minting self-service.
* Crypto-as-a-service platform for business clients.

BTL is the native utility token that empowers overall Bitlocus ecosystem and is used for:
* Better DeFi interest rates: BTL holders earn up to 30% better interest rates.
* Better BTL staking rates: the longer you stake your BTL, the more BTL you earn as interest.
* Fee discounts: additional discounts are available for business clients’ fees paid in BTL.
* Exclusive access: additional features and services will be available to BTL holders only - soon.

Being considerate and careful about the risks, our company managed to keep the exposure to Terra crash limited and experienced only minor loss related to liquidity provided for Terra blockchain (BTL/UST). Even under these unfavorable circumstances Bitlocus team kept up the pace continuously building and improving the platform. We quickly pivoted and tweaked our offering to business clients, while our token supply, originally on Terra, was immediately bridged to BSC and Ethereum.

Carbon Protocol

The Suterusu Protocol is a second-layer private payment infrastructure for smart contract platforms. The Suterusu Protocol uses the original and most advanced ZK-ConSnark algorithm that does not require a trusted setup. The algorithm’s proof size is significantly reduced and the proof generation and verification efficiency are greatly improved compared with similar solutions. Since no trusted setup is required, it is safe and transparent. The technical paper has been accepted by Eurocrypt 2021(https://eurocrypt.iacr.org/2021/acceptedpapers.php, https://eprint.iacr.org/2021/540). The Suterusu Protocol has been deployed on Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, Heco, SmartBCH (BCH sidechain), Theta, etc. We plan to deploy Suterusu protocol on the following smart contract platforms including Near, Solana, Avalanche, Moonbeam, Plasma, Matic, etc. It is also the first privacy project funded by the official Cypherpunk Guild Fund of Near. We are also applying for the Solana and Polkadot ecosystem grant. The Suterusu Protocol intends to build a private payment infrastructure for any cryptocurrency. The Suterusu project has received investment from well-known institutions such as Dialectic (a fund founded by the former Polychain partner Ryan Zurr), Fundamental Labs, FBG, Continue Capital, DeFi Alliance, and other well-known institutions.

XDB Is the native coin of XDB CHAIN and is a RWA.
XDB CHAIN (XDB) is a protocol layer blockchain also known as the technology "empowering brands and consumers of tomorrow". The platform was created to support the fast and affordable transfer of consumer digital assets such as branded currencies, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), stablecoins and more.

XDB CHAIN claims that the infrastructure is decentralized, open-source and easy-to-use. The network consists of connected “XDB CHAIN cores” run by individuals and entities around the world — similar to blockchain nodes. With XDB CHAIN, users can create payment-related tools and devices. Users launch their digital assets via the XDB CHAIN network by linking assets to apps from the app store. Tokenization of assets can be used to support audience engagement for brands.

The mission of XDB CHAIN is to encourage the project to the mass market by facilitating the liquidity of digital assets while integrating with existing user applications. XDB CHAIN simplifies the tokenization of assets through transactions and a trading layer for the point economy.

The project is a fork of Stellar protocol and adopted the core features and capabilities of the latest Stellar network (v19), including the token certification service and on-chain trading (DEX).
