## Τι Είναι το Utrust (UTK);

Το Utrust (UTK) σχεδιάστηκε για να αντιμετωπίσει το πρόβλημα χαμηλής χρήσης των κρυπτονομισμάτων ως μέσο [πληρωμών](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/the-role-of-crypto-in-cross-border-payments-the-ultimate-comparison), ιδιαίτερα την υπανάπτυκτη ασφάλεια συναλλαγών των πλατφορμών πληρωμών και τις σχετικά υψηλές χρεώσεις.

Ο κύριος στόχος της πλατφόρμας είναι να δημιουργήσει ένα σύστημα που θα επιτρέπει γρήγορες και απρόσκοπτες συναλλαγές κρυπτονομισμάτων με χαμηλότερες χρεώσεις, δίνοντας έτσι τη δυνατότητα στους εμπόρους να προσεγγίσουν ένα μεγάλο κοινό κατόχων κρυπτονομισμάτων.

Η πλατφόρμα προσφέρει στους αγοραστές ασφαλείς αγορές και τη δυνατότητα επιστροφής χρημάτων, ενώ παράλληλα προστατεύει τους πωλητές από την υψηλή μεταβλητότητα της αγοράς κρυπτονομισμάτων.

Η Utrust στοχεύει στη δημιουργία μιας πιο αξιόπιστης πλατφόρμας πληρωμών συνδυάζοντας τα καλύτερα χαρακτηριστικά του blockchain και των παραδοσιακών συστημάτων παραστατικού χρήματος.

Τον Ιανουάριο του 2022, η Utrust εξαγοράστηκε από το Ίδρυμα Elrond, που τώρα ονομάζεται MultiversX και είναι ανταγωνιστής του Ethereum. Η πλατφόρμα Utrust και το token UTK ενσωματώθηκαν στο οικοσύστημα MultiversX.

### Ποιοι Είναι οι Ιδρυτές του Utrust;

Ο Nuno Correia είναι συνιδρυτής του Utrust και πρόεδρος του διοικητικού συμβουλίου του. Ο Correia εργάζεται στη βιομηχανία κρυπτονομισμάτων από το 2011, έχοντας ιδρύσει διάφορες επιχειρήσεις B2C. Έχει υπόβαθρο στο μάρκετινγκ και τη νομική.

Ο Roberto Machado είναι συνιδρυτής, μέλος του διοικητικού συμβουλίου και CPO του Utrust. Πριν από το Utrust, ο Machado είχε συνεργαστεί με διεθνείς εταιρείες, όπως η Uphold, η AT&T και η Airtel.

Ο Filipe Castro είναι συνιδρυτής, μέλος του διοικητικού συμβουλίου και Επικεφαλής Κανονιστικής Συμμόρφωσης του Utrust. Ο Castro έχει πτυχίο πληροφορικής από το Πανεπιστήμιο του Πόρτο. Πριν το Utrust, συμμετείχε στην ανάπτυξη λύσεων λογισμικού.

### Τι Κάνει το Utrust Μοναδικό;

Ένα από τα ζητήματα με τη χρήση κρυπτονομισμάτων ως μέσο πληρωμών είναι η μεταβλητότητα των τιμών. Όπως αναφέρθηκε και προηγουμένως, το Utrust στοχεύει να προστατεύσει τόσο τους αγοραστές όσο και τους πωλητές από τις επιπτώσεις της, προφυλάσσοντας τους πωλητές από τη μεταβλητότητα της αγοράς και παρέχοντας στους αγοραστές μια επιλογή επιστροφής χρημάτων.

Μέχρι να παραληφθεί ένα αγορασμένο προϊόν από τον αγοραστή, το Utrust διασφαλίζει τη συναλλαγή, ενεργώντας ως διαμεσολαβητής και διασφαλίζοντας την επιτυχία της.

Οι χρήστες κρυπτονομισμάτων τείνουν να χρησιμοποιούν περισσότερα από ένα πορτοφόλια και χρηματιστήρια για τη διαχείριση των κρυπτονομισμάτων τους. Το Utrust στοχεύει να μειώσει αυτήν την πολυπλοκότητα εισάγοντας το δικό του εγγενές πορτοφόλι που δίνει τη δυνατότητα στους χρήστες να πραγματοποιούν γρήγορες και ασφαλείς συναλλαγές. Το κινητό αυτό πορτοφόλι υποστηρίζει πληρωμές τόσο εντός όσο και εκτός αλυσίδας. Επιπλέον, δίνει τη δυνατότητα στους χρήστες να μετατρέπουν κρυπτονομίσματα σε [παραστατικά χρήματα](https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/fiat) για να αντισταθμίσουν τη μεταβλητότητα των τιμών.

MultiversX is a blockchain protocol that offers true horizontal scalability by using all aspects of sharding (Network, Transaction & State). The project describes itself as a technology ecosystem for the new internet, which includes decentralized finance, real world assets and the Metaverse. Its smart contracts execution platform is reportedly capable of up to 100,000 transactions per second, 6-second latency and a $0.002 transaction cost.

MultiversX is governed and secured through the EGLD token. EGLD, or Electronic Gold, is MultiversX's native token. It acts as a store of value currency to pay for network usage. The coin also serves as a medium of exchange between platform users and validators. Users pay transaction fees in EGLD and validators participate in the consensus process.

EGLD allows developers to deploy smart contracts, protocols, and dApps on the platform. It empowers participants to perform any network action. Through staking and validation rewards, as well as transaction fees, EGLD manages the MultiversX network. Plus, EGLD is endowed with the functionality of a governance token, so its holders can vote on network decisions.

Orchid (OXT) is the native token of Orchid, a cryptocurrency-powered virtual private network (VPN).

Launched in December 2019, Orchid describes itself as the world’s first incentivized, peer-to-peer privacy network.

Its aim is to overcome internet freedom limitations by using cryptocurrency payments to allow anyone to purchase bandwidth from any participating provider. This is done using so-called probabilistic nanopayments, which occur using OXT, an ERC-20 standard token on Ethereum.

Regular payments to providers occur off-chain, allowing Orchid to avoid problems with congestion and gas fees on the Ethereum network.

The service is pay-per-use, meaning that users only have to contribute funds when they actually connect, instead of paying monthly or annual fees.

The AVA utility token, developed by the AVA Foundation, embodies the concept of customer loyalty programs using blockchain technology to extend the applications of loyalty programs beyond that which can be achieved with traditional models.

Primarily, AVA functions as the key to accessing the AVA Smart Program, a web3 loyalty program that provides use cases to end users, such as loyalty rewards, discounts, gated access benefits, AVA bonuses and more. The token is also used as a payment alternative for purchasing goods and services on partner platforms and as a governance tool for the AVA community.

The overarching mission of the AVA Foundation is to create a decentralised, self-sufficient, and interconnected blockchain-based loyalty ecosystem with AVA at its core. The AVA Foundation aims to realise this mission by introducing the AVA Smart Program to partner projects in a cost-effective manner via a plug-and-play approach that provides participants with significantly greater utility, transparency, and autonomy over their rewards.

This approach cultivates an accessible and more frictionless experience by enabling users to benefit from a range of partner projects via a single loyalty program ecosystem, thus generating more use cases, bringing communities together, and amplifying the reach of the AVA token.

Band Protocol is a cross-chain data oracle platform that is able to take real-world data and supply it to on-chain applications, while also connecting APIs to smart-contracts to facilitate the exchange of information between on-chain and off-chain data sources.

By supplying reputable, verifiable real-world data to blockchains, Band Protocol unlocks a range of new use cases for developers to explore — since they can now use any type of real-world data as part of their decentralized application (DApp) logic, including sports, weather, random numbers, price feed data and more.

Band Protocol initially launched as an ERC-20 project on the Ethereum blockchain in September 2019, but transitioned to the Cosmos network in June 2020 with the release of Band Protocol 2.0. The new protocol is built on BandChain using the Cosmos SDK. Oracle nodes on BandChain not only relay data but are also involved in block production/validation, giving them a dual role.

BAND is the native token of the Band Protocol ecosystem and is used as collateral by validators involved in fulfilling data requests, as well as the main medium of exchange on BandChain — being used to paying for private data.

Linear is a decentralized delta-one asset protocol capable of instantly creating synthetic assets with unlimited liquidity. The project opens traditional assets like commodities, forex, market indices and other thematic sectors to cryptocurrency users by supporting the creation of “Liquids” — Linear’s synthetic asset tokens.

The protocol consists of various products like Linear.Buildr, a DApp used to manage Liquids using Linear (LINA) and other tokens as collateral. The exchange is specifically created to enable trading of a variety of Liquids with rapid confirmation times and robust security.

LINA is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum network whose main purpose is as collateral for Liquids (using Buildr) and for community governance of the protocol. All token holders have access to the Linear DAO, enabling them to vote on different initiatives and proposals, helping to shape the development of the Linear ecosystem.

The main goal of Linear is to provide a superior user experience with better scalability and greater speed thanks to the cross-chain capabilities of the protocol. Linear Finance intends to provide a simple solution for users that want exposure to traditional assets while still benefiting from the features enabled only by blockchain technology.

Linear Finance

Wanchain is a distributed ledger that allows for cross-chain transactions and the interoperability of multiple chains. Although Wanchain facilitates transactions between blockchains, it is also a stand-alone blockchain that runs autonomously. The protocol acts as a distributed ledger that processes and maintains records of cross-chain transactions.

Transactions on Wanchain do not only occur between different public blockchains but between private chains as well. As an Ethereum (ETH) fork, Wanchain enjoys some of the properties of the Ethereum blockchain. The protocol securely and autonomously processes applications via smart contracts.  The use cases for Wanchain include decentralized exchanges (DEXs), lending and borrowing platforms, stablecoins, crowdfunding, multi-currency payments and settlements.

The platform is totally decentralized and requires no custodian party to manage or confirm transactions. Unlike other cross-chain systems, Wanchain does not rely on a third-party platform to authenticate transactions. The locked account mechanism is used to secure and manage accounts on the network, eliminating third-party interferences.

Wanchain
