Press Release — Reverse ICO Partner Program
WOTI Governance Enters Agreement for Jeju Island Rent-A-Car “Zzim Car” Partnership
- Car rental service will be launched based on BOScoin Partnerships
- Plans to build a blockchain town in Jeju where BOScoins can be used in December
SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 27, 2018 /PRNewswire/ — Korea Cashback (CEO: Young-min Kim) entered a business agreement with Nature Mobility (CEO: Joo-sang Lee) on Sept. 18 at the conference room on the 8th floor of the Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) to provide a free rent a car reservation service in Jeju Island to domestic and international tourists who participate in the WOTI Governance.
As part of partnership programs offered at home and abroad to commemorate the 2019 launch of WOTI Governance, which was announced at the last meet-up in the Plaza hotel on Sept. 3, the agreement will allow the companies to secure over 5,000 conventional and electric cars from 32 rent a car companies in Jeju Island that will be utilized for a complimentary service for tourists who participate in WOTI Governance.
Based on the business agreement with BlockchainOS (BOScoin), the WOTI Governance run by Korea Cashback will now allow users to obtain BOScoins for free through an app that uses location-based Augmented Reality and to use the coins in participating merchants by scanning a QR code. The global service will begin in 2019 and continue to accept a wide range of partners across the globe.
Securing a rent a car service in Jeju Island for the WOTI Governance enabled Korea Cashback to plan various ride-share and personal vehicle sharing services as well as gaining access to the technology that supports easy and fast connection with global companies. In the meantime, Nature Mobility expects to expand the market through the WOTI Governance and generate a steady revenue stream.
Both companies secured 129 electric vehicles to contribute to reduce pollution in tourist attractions and put them to use first for the free reservation service starting in 2019.
Also, together with its partners, Korea Cashback, Nature Mobility, and Pay Express, BOScoin plans to run a campaign to increase the adoption of electric cars and promote the service by Jeju island rent-a-car companies. It is building a service network based on the BOScoin platform to help rent-a-car companies that switch from gasoline-powered cars to electric cars.
With the launch of its mainnet in December around the corner, BlockchainOS is successfully running public financing service and partner development programs and announced with the partners its vision of building a blockchain town in Jeju Island where tourists can travel and shop using BOScoins, prior to the official launch of the WOTI Governance in 2019.
CEO/CTO — Ask Me Anything — September
Partnerships, Agreements and Services
Q1. The meet up in Korea seemed to be a great success, do you have a list of all the people and companies who turned up?
- Thanks for your interest in the “BOScoin Partners Meetup”.
- Please refer to http://decenter.sedaily.com/NewsView/1S4I9ENR0U for details.
- Unfortunately, we can not reveal the list of people and companies to the public.
Q2. When BOScoins are actually used in the business with the partners, what procedure is needed for normal users to use the BOS (not the BOS holder) to pay for the Zzimcar.co.kr in Jeju? From using an existing wallet?
- The details are being discussed, and cannot be answered completely at this time. However, one of our partners, Pay Express, is a blockchain-based payment system, and we are considering using them as a payment module. So, you can pay with BOScoin directly from the Zzimcar using the Pay Express Payment Module. However, it is difficult for regular users who are not BOScoin holders to use them immediately.
Development
Q1. All proposals at first can be considered as beta proposals. will there be a feature as a voter to send a proposal to 2nd round of voting? with a remark suggestion from the voter for modification/improvement of the proposal. will need to achieve a minimum consensus says “send to 2nd round”. I guess there will be a lot of proposal that me as a voter will mind to add or change some things to make it “perfect”. “Proposal modification phase” aka 2nd round of voting. What are your thoughts about something like this?
- Currently, BlockchainOS is in charge of making proposals, but we will consider letting the community participate in making or modifying proposals later.
Q2. Would we be able to get some updates along the way (in the newsletter) with how TestNet is proceeding so people like myself who are not too technically aware can know where we are up to?
- Thanks for your interest in our development status. We will prepare a detailed explanation of our development process and schedules. Meanwhile, please refer to project page on github, https://github.com/bosnet/sebak/projects.
Q3. Can i link multiple accounts to one membership? If yes, can you elaborate on the connectivity between my wallet/account private key and voting process?
- Unfortunately no you can not link multiple accounts to a single membership.
Other
Q1. Do you have plans to put a search bar on BOScoin.io so we can search for particular articles or announcements? Thanks, Chef Bedo.
- Yes we do. We are modifying and upgrading our main homepage, and you will be able to easily search PF, voting, WP2.0, news and articles.
Q2. Would you consider calling RIPP just reverse ICO as RIPP has bad connotations?
- Thanks, we will consider your suggestion.
Q3. Would you be able to clearly outline for the community the difference between public financing, reverse ICO’s and trust contracts as I think there is some confusion between the three?
- I understand where you got confused. Basically, Public Financing refers to issuance of BOScoin, and the ultimate purpose of the issuance is adding value to the community. The specific purpose of issuance will differ for each PF. You will be able to learn the details of each PF when the proposal is presented to vote on. For example, PF_R_00 refers to the first PF about distributing reward to the community.
- In the RIPP program, our partner companies will conduct reverse-ICO where they run a token sale to initiate their token business. With the result of their reverse-ICO and business build-up, our community will have a chance to vote on whether or not partner companies’ assets should be bound to BOScoin. If that proposal passes, partner companies enter PF stage, where their asset is bound to BOScoin’s.
Q4. How exactly will the voting on PF00 take place?
- The exact date for voting will be announced around the first week of November.
Q5. At the original whitepaper it was mentioned That a congress member will get penalized if he does-not participates the voting process. Is this feature still on? If i am away from keyboard for a while i should expect reduced rewards? Or Any form of fines?
- There is no financial penalty for not voting. However, you will be influenced by the result of voting, not reflecting your opinion. For example, if you do not vote for PF_R_00 (Membership reward PF), resulting in rejection of the proposal, you won’t be able to receive any reward consequently.
Q6. Would we be able to see the Korean meet up with English subtitles please?
- Yes, certainly. However, takes time for translations and uploading subtitles.
