Karatcoin lets you trade gold certificates on the Ethereum blockchain. Find out how it works today in our review. 
Karatcoin tokenizes gold certificates on the Ethereum blockchain. You can use Karatcoin to store gold certificates in your ordinary Ethereum wallet.
The project was first announced in September 2017 with a post on Medium: https://medium.com/@karatcoin/karatcoin-tokenizes-gold-certificates-on-ethereum-4afa7426894b.
In the post, Karatcoin’s creators talk about how they want to do more than just digitize gold certificates: they want to create a new economy complete with decentralized financial services, decentralized apps, and more. All of these services will use Karatcoin as a token.
The platform is in development by Dreammy, an Italy-based music sharing service.
Let’s take a closer look at how Karatcoin works.

What Problems Does Karatcoin Seek to Solve?Karatcoin sees a number of problems in today’s gold markets. Here are some of the problems identified in the Karatcoin whitepaper:
Difficulty in Finding Gold:Karatcoin’s whitepaper explains that “gold mines cannot guarantee the necessary supply” of gold, especially for larger orders from the marketplace. They’re struggling to mine an adequate amount of gold to keep up with market demand.
Bond Value:The bond market is producing historically poor yields.
Difficult to Store Gold:Storing gold isn’t easy. Many investors fail to create adequate security systems to protect their gold.
How Does Karatcoin Work?Karatcoin aims to solve all of the problems listed above. Some of the core functions of the ecosystem include:
Direct Links to Gold Mines:Karatcoin’s platform will link directly to gold mines. Karatcoin claims to have already selected a number of mines based on their “ability, background, structural credibility and financial rating.” Karatcoin also claims there’s no intermediary involved in the process: theyinvest directly in gold mines.
5 to 6% Bond Yields:Karatcoin will issue “Karatcoin Gold Asset Certificates” with different maturity dates. These bonds will pay 5 to 6% yields depending on their duration. A one year bond, for example, pays a 5% yield per year, and a five year bond pays a 6% yield per year. Returns are paid every six months until maturation.
Smart Contracts:Transactions between Karatcoin and investors will be managed by smart contracts.
Karatcoin’s whitepaper mentions gold mining operations in South America and Africa. The whitepaper doesn’t mention any specific companies or mines in any of the listed countries. It’s just a list of the top gold producing countries in both regions.
Basically, Karatcoin will hold gold for you, and then you can maintain digitized control of that gold through products like gold cards and gold certificates.
Karatcoin ProductsKaratcoin will offer three main products, including certificates, cards, and tokens.
Gold Certificates:Karatcoin’s gold certificates consist of the Proof of Authority (PoA) information permanently uploaded into the decentralized database. These gold certificates have a specific duration and a fixed revenue. Each Gold Asset Certificate represents $1,000 USD of value.
Gold Cards:PoA Asset Gold Cards consist of the PoA information permanently uploaded into the decentralized database.
Karatcoin Tokens (KTC):KTC is a the digital currency for the Karatcoin platform. Each token will be equal to $3 worth of gold. You can use KTC to buy gold certificates, buy gold cards, or to trade for other cryptocurrencies.
The KaratCoin KTC Token SaleThe Karatcoin token sale will consist of a pre-sale and a main crowdsale. The pre-sale is a private sale only for approved investors. The sale will take place over 15 days in Q1 2018.
The crowdsale, meanwhile, will start 30 days after the conclusion of the pre-sale. It will last for 30 days.
A total supply of 15 million tokens will be sold during the pre-sale and crowdsale at a price of $3 apiece, although bonuses are available throughout the ICO.
Who’s Behind KaratCoin KTC?Karatcoin is being developed by a company called Dreammy. That company is a music hosting platform based in Italy. Dreammy is led by co-founders Simone Orso and Claudia Busato. Dreammy was founded in 2014, with the Karatcoin project launching in June 2017.
KaratCoin KTC ICO ConclusionKaratcoin is a cryptocurrency project seeking to bring gold certificates to the Ethereum blockchain. The platform will digitize your gold holdings, then allow you to hold them in your Karatcoin wallet on your mobile device. You can freely trade Karatcoin tokens (KTC) and gold certificates through the app.
It’s a little difficult to understand how Karatcoin works. The English translation of the website and whitepaper feature some unusual sentences and unclear terms.
The whitepaper, for example, mentions that the company will invest in real gold mines in South America and Africa. However, it’s unclear how these investments will work, or what kinds of returns investors can expect.
The platform is in development by a company called Dreammy. Dreammy’s core product is a music sharing platform – so it’s unclear why they’ve suddenly decided to start investing in gold mines worldwide. The company also operates a vegan recipe website. Overall, it’s unclear how a company that specializes in a music sharing platform plans to dominate the global gold mining industry.
In any case, you can learn more about Karatcoin by visiting online at Karatcoin.co. The ICO is scheduled to begin sometime in Q1 2018, although specific dates have not yet been announced.

This marks a huge step for the young company which has seen a 600% growth in the coin in the last 6 months as an ´invite only´ coin offering. Last year (2018) the KBC completed one of the most successful ico launches in digital currency history resulting in a 100 million USD capital stake from investors as well as the bank securing gold deposit guarantee of some tonnage by ICBC. They laid down 135kg of gold as a base for their ´gold-backed´ crypto coins KCB and the now much talked about, KBC. Company founder and CEO Harald Seiz publicly announced that July 4th 2019 would be ´Gold Independence day´ when the KBC coins would equal 100KBC= 1 gram of gold.
IT IS TOO LATE TO PURCHASE THE COINS at usd 15.00 for 100KBC but contact us and we can show you how to purchase via your own private account at usd 20.00.
You do the math!

Venezuela - You are at war with U.S.A.
As the US tries to keep its currency afloat via warring on the shifting sands of the middle east, Desperate eyes turn to Venezuela as an easy catch, with the polemic Chavez dead and Argentina's new neo-liberal president Mauricio Macri proving ready and willing to 'roll over, sit, play dead'.  Will this mean we may see some easing of conflict in Syria...

Much of Wall Street (or London’s Square Mile or Shanghai’s Pudong district or Hong Kong’s... island) is not a paragon of probity, integrity or adherence to rock-solid rules, ok?

 How many got bonuses, really I have zero idea, but according to the movie "The Big Short" it was
​A LOT! So lots of people lost a lot, some, everything but the 1% looked out for themselves and today still hold executive positions after being shifted sideways. I met Catherine Austin-Fitts not long after the collapse and she was offered a sideways shift from housing to treasury. She in my opinion is a paragon of probity, she turned down the offer and went on the lamb, hiding from the government who froze her accounts and hacked her life.

What Can We Do?

 This is me below. What I have been doing for awhile now is moving a regular amount of paper currency into gold bullion. You can easily do that too and protect yourself against the ravages of inflation...

Up until recently this was out of reach for us 99%'ers but Karatbars began producing and manufacturing the small 1 gram bars specifically for people in our percentile. More than this, the founder, Harald Seiz developed a system of commissioned payments to encourage people to save and even earn free gold in exchange for referring people within YOUR communities to save in like. Just like Solari Circles. Just like immigrant communities have always done; they support their fellow countrymen or families buy buying and selling within their circles of influence. Karatbars is taking this concept a few steps further which I won't go into today, but transparency and security goes hand in hand with Karatbars International's probity.

THE GREAT DEPRESSION BEGINS: THE STOCK MARKET CRASH OF 1929

The American economy entered an ordinary recession during the summer of 1929, as consumer spending dropped and unsold goods began to pile up, slowing production. At the same time, stock prices continued to rise, and by the fall of that year had reached levels that could not be justified by anticipated future earnings. On October 24, 1929, the stock market bubble finally burst, as investors began dumping shares en masse. A record 12.9 million shares were traded that day, known as “Black Thursday.” Five days later, on “Black Tuesday” some 16 million shares were traded after another wave of panic swept Wall Street. Millions of shares ended up worthless, and those investors who had bought stocks “on margin” (with borrowed money) were wiped out completely.
As consumer confidence vanished in the wake of the stock market crash, the downturn in spending and investment led factories and other businesses to slow down production and construction and begin firing their workers. For those who were lucky enough to remain employed, wages fell and buying power decreased. Many Americans forced to buy on credit fell into debt, and the number of foreclosures and repossessions climbed steadily. The adherence to the gold standard, which joined countries around the world in a fixed currency exchange, helped spread the Depression from the United States throughout the world, especially in Europe.

So what is the goal? Move us forward progressively into the ranks of these industrial and banking elites, like the Lehmans, JP Morgans, Rothschilds etc etc etc? South America has always been the bread basket filled to brimming for exploitation for those that are well enough connected, or those that are willing to learn how to SCREW.

 My apologies for not sharing this with you sooner.
For the last six months we have been quietly building a business and also carefully exchanging (mostly dollar tips), and saving with Karatbars International.
The few of you with whom I have spoken with on this, have like us, seen the benefits of exchanging some of your paper for physical gold money in small affordable amounts, and some are saving and a handful have also begun to develop their own business as affiliates to the company. I apologise because I have only been concerned with the business development and therefore have not been super public about it. I figured we had more time.
Argentina had its wake-up call in 2001, North America theirs in 2008, Greece was the precursor to what I firmly believe is something that won't be very pretty.
 So here is your invitation from me to how you can inflation proof your savings, help others do the same and earn some heavy residuals in the process
​This is the world we live in and unlike Chicken Little, I do not run around touting every little thing that concerns me, because it all concerns me. I urge you to take action today.
To your success,
Raymond

Step 1:
Get your free Karatbars International account set-up TODAY  (as an affiliate, as it's the same to begin with)
It is free, and this e-commerce company gets at least some of your savings outside of the banking system, which globally is backed by the US Dollar
Step 2:
If you can, make a purchase today. It will be stored at zero cost or shipped via FEDexpress (18.50 outside of GmbH)
If you can, buy an affiliate business package for cheaper purchases and heavier commissions.
If you have no money, go to step 3

Step 3:
​ Refer your loved ones or business associates to this link:
goldmoneyintro.com (in English and Spanish)
a) Invite them to watch the video (contact me if you need it in Portuguese).
b) Ask them what they thought and if they have questions, refer them to your team leader for clarification. Don't try to explain it yourself, we do this as a team!
​c) Afterwards, recommend they take action by creating their own safety-net account using your personal referral link, it will look like this:

The first 30minutes of this video which is made by a economist, is quite interesting, It IS a sales video for a preppers book on how people survived post 2008 crash and in Greece 2015 $37 cost. Below is my affiliate link to the book.

I haven't posted for awhile, I mean really I write these blogs posts  more for myself than anything.
Of course the content I keep in mind always needs be helpful in nature should someone unwittingly stumble across it.
So Karatbars International may not be the last enterprise in get involved in, but certainly it is the one I'm banking on to help my family survive the coming economic turmoil.

Ridiculous as it may seem, Argentina elected a oligarchy and corporate friendly right-wing government, (run by the very same people/families who were benefitting from the misadventures post OPERATION CONDOR, a C.I.A. joint to "stabilise" the brown folk down here in South America), Brasil has coup and installs a guy who is awaiting trial for all sorts of charges, and don't even getme started on Mexico and Venezuela.

You have to wonder, 'what is all this gunpowder for?' No doubt things are all about to fall over with the American Dollar, Peter Schiff (see his latest video declaring the Dollar collapse on 28th May 2016), has been very vocal about it, as has Trump, Iosaki, muppet O'mallay etc and the mainstream media is finally ready to lay it all on us, and I'm guessing U.S of A will use this as the tool or trigger needed to bring us all into their nice, safe little New World Order.

What to do, what to do? Well nothing. there are three types of people, those who make things happen those who watch things happen and those that go "What happened"?

My intention wasn't to highjack my own post with rants of this nature, I wanted in fact to say that today was a typical day of lately, working from home in winter, everyone I spoke with said the same thing, it's getting even tough to afford the food to eat!
I signed him up (or rather he signed himself up), into the Karatbars business, both knowing he didn't have two centavos to save, but he sees it. More importantly he sees how he can make a difference not just to his own life but those around him by sharing an invitation to a presentation and following up with one of our leaders. In my view this makes him a leader, you may think more of a dreamer and that's ok, because dreamers have vision, and we need more people like him and less like cattle headed to the slaughter houses.
I spoke with 5 people today, 1 signed and 4 are looking to do it shortly.
​Get out there and share this! We need to move now!

E-Commerce And Affiliate Marketing

The beauty of these types of businesses is that you are associating with people who have an interest and stake in moving in the same direction as yourself. Everyone benefits from the successes of others within (and outside of), their business.
The creation of the internet and the mass production
of computers in the late 80's changed everyone's
lives forever.  Now, everyone has the potential to
be their own boss whether you are a stay home mom
or a manual laborer.  



All you need to do is search on Google for business opportunities and it will bring up more than you could ever imagine.  Even though you may think it's easy to make a living on the internet, it actually requires a firm business plan and a lot of hard work.

You can run an online business with your current job, and your potential market is a lot bigger than the average stores.  

The first thing you'll need to decide is the type of business that's right for you, then research the market.  The possible business choices open to you are:
    1.  Affiliate programs
    2.  Adsense programs
    3.  Selling products

Affiliate programs will pay you a commission for selling company products.
 Generally you'll have no contact with the customer, as all you do is provide sales leads to the company of whom you have to be an affiliate for.  With the German E-Commerce company Karatbars International GmbH, you have the option of developing a customer base or a business network. One which pays commissionsmonthly for customerreferrals or weekly to business developers.
To best utilise the residual income options, affiliate programmes such as the one involving Karatbars gold exchange (trading and saving some of your cash for gold), it is recommended that developing a network of business associates is key to its success.

Adsense programs are where you take an existing website you own of a particular subject then add contexual adverts from Google's adsense program. When someone clicks on an advert you'll receive a few cents.  

The final method is selling products.  You'll build a website with a shopping cart then give as many details as possible about the products.  When customers buy products, you'll receive pay based on what you sell and how many.

When it all comes down to it, you'll need to set up a business and web site to get the most from E-Commerce or affiliate marketing.  It'll take a lot of hard work and dedication - although it'll prove to be well worth it.

I described to clients today this huge generalisation of us humans.
Individually we are quite clever, compassionate, ingenious etc etc... but collectively we are easily led by other's manipulation of our egos and finances, happily enslaved in our ordered world as long as it allows us a lifestyle of reasonable comfort or survival. You want more, show your worth it and you shall be accomodated and appeased.

The staus quo is as it ever was. Is this why dictatorships endure into the 21st century, nothing has changed. The people you never hear of who pull the strings and provide when necessary, shiny distractions for their little lemmings, or sheep, are the same and probably the same families even.
In the old ages it was more honest and we surfs, less demanding.

Ok, enough whingeing from me, So, which are you? Lemming or Sheep? Both are quite adorable in their own way.

However even as a New Zealander who grew up in a country where there were more sheep than people I prefer the company of individuals, and individuals are who I am associated with, the ones who are building a safety net, not just for themselves but for their family and their children's family via residual income development.

Those that are building networks for organisations and businesses that will remain when everything begins to shake-down. As always association is the key, I am proud of my affiliation with associates around the world who are literally paying it forward and are part of the solution and less the problem. Money for yourself and loved ones is the root no? Why else do people support painful and destructive systems? 

Someone close to me told me of how his father was held to ransom in jail for the sum of USD200 000 and barely escaped with his life then,later, after the madness subsided returned to work for those same men.

This was interesting don't you think. . . 
This is officially an all-out revolution of the financial system where banks are now actively rebelling against the central bank.
(What’s even more amazing is that this concept of traditional banking– holding physical cash in a bank vault– is now considered revolutionary and radical.)
There’s just one teensy tiny problem: there simply is not enough physical cash in the entire financial system to support even a tiny fraction of the demand.
Total bank deposits exceed trillions of euros. Physical cash constitutes just a small percentage of that sum.
So if German banks do start hoarding physical currency, there won’t be any left in the financial system.
