5 WHY INVEST IN CROWDCOIN? You might be wondering what makes CrowdCoin so special and why so many people are interested in it. Following are the main advantages of CrowdCoin. Unique Blockchain CrowdCoin is a unique Proof of Work based cryptocurrency forked from Dash with its own blockchain built from the ground up. The advantages of this are that the CrowdCoin development team is always able to improve on the technology on which the platform is built on, as well as being able to quickly implement changes and possible fixes without requiring majority consensus. It also makes CrowdCoin not being limited by the capacity of the blockchain it has been based on, as you see with crypto tokens (an example of this would be the ERC-20 tokens on the Ethereum blockchain that are causing network congestion due to over usage/implementation). In addition, CrowdCoin is utilizing masternodes to provide added stability, flexibility and security to the coin s network and the added masternode governance system, allowing masternode owners to take votes on the future progression of CrowdCoin. What is a Masternode? CrowdCoin masternodes are computers that run a CrowdCoin wallet 24 hours a day, keeping the network steady and secure by locking transactions with InstantSend, coordinating mixing of coins, and voting on budget funding. Masternodes are owned by different people in CrowdCoin s community and they only require a 1000 CrowdCoin collateral, a dedicated IP address, and continuous uptime. Masternode owners get paid a percentage of the block rewards of every block. CAN ANYONE OWN A CROWDCOIN MASTERNODE? YES of course All you need is to purchase 1000 CrowdCoin from one of the exchanges that offers CRC pairs. Everything else is explained in great detail in our written masternode setup guides on the website. If you get stuck on any part of the guide drop by in our Discord and the community will help you with any issues you might have. 4

6 WHY INVEST IN CROWDCOIN? Strong Community CrowdCoin has capable community members in our Discord channel on FaceBook and on Twitter all willing to help new members, constantly contributing to the coin s success. Everyone in our community has a different background therefore contributes in tasks and projects that are needed for the coin s future success in whatever way they can. Stable Coin CrowdCoin is backed by over 700 master nodes at the time of writing and thousands of independent miners, making it strong and decentralized, which is the purpose and wish of every cryptocurrency. The more support, the harder it is to be penetrated by hackers. CrowdCoin has reached a level that is impossible to hack. Transparency What does an investor need? All investors seek transparency; to know who is behind their potential investment. Names and faces. This is what we have here at CrowdCoin. The Developer, members of the core team, support team and task managers are available to everyone and ready to help. We are all part of the everyday work involving the community and Social Media, we are available to provide support and answer any questions you might have at any given time. Can I just buy a few CrowdCoins as a long-term investment? That is a great idea. The total supply of CRC is limited and its uses on the platform are many. This means that the demand for CRC once the platform is open to the public will be high. Therefore, having bought CRC at low prices will benefit when the demand increases. 5

7 What is the yearly supply of CRC on the market? One of the main advantages of CRC is that the supply is limited and it will be gradually added on the market. Following is the graph of Coin Supply per Year. How can I mine CRC? If you have a good graphics card on your system you can easily mine CRC. The algorithm is Neoscrypt and the Block Time is 2 minutes. Instructions: 1. Download the ccminer program from Github Create a.bat file with the following configurations: -a neoscrypt -o stratum+tcp://<select a pool>:<port> -u <Paste your wallet here> -p c=crc 3. Save.bat file and double click it to start, that s it... Now you are mining 4. If you run into problems visit our Discord Group and you can get mining related help in the #mining channel. 6

8 WHAT S NEXT? Our team and community is constantly working!! Following are some of the tasks that we are working on at the moment and will be delivered very shortly. 1. Creation of the official Mining Pool QUICK TIPS 2. Completing the White Paper 3. Redesign of official Website 4. Release of Android + IOS Wallet OUR COMMUNITY CHANNELS 5. Design of the platform DISCORD: 6. Release of the platform We are very proud of our Discord Channel. Crowdcoin is a Cryptocurrency? What Does That Mean? Cryptocurrencies are a form of digital or virtual currencies that are encrypted (secured) using cryptography. Cryptography refers to the use of encryption techniques to secure and verify the transfer of transactions. Bitcoin represents the first decentralized cryptocurrency, which is powered by a public ledger that records and validates all transactions chronologically, called the Blockchain, or distributed ledger. What are Tokens? Tokens are a representation of a particular asset or utility, that usually resides on top of another blockchain. Creating tokens is a much easier process as you do not have to modify the code from a particular protocol or create a blockchain from scratch. All you have to do is follow a standard template on the blockchain such as on the Ethereum or Waves platform that allows you to create your own tokens. This functionality of creating your own tokens is made possible through the use of smart contracts; programmable computer codes that are self-executing and do not need any third-parties to operate. CrowdCoin uses Proof of Work (PoW). What Does That Mean? Proof of Work is a requirement to define extensive computer calculations, also called mining, that need to be performed in order to create a new group of transactions (the so-called blocks) on a distributed ledger called blockchain. Hundreds of people everyday meet our team members and support staff receiving live help and information. FACEBOOK: Our FaceBook page is constantly communicating important crypto news and CrowdCoin s progress. TWITTER: CrowdCoin has an active Twitter Page of more than 3,000 followers. Our Twitter page is an active tool for communicating our goals. Here is some technical info (Don t worry too much if its all gibberish to you.) Coin specifications: Ticker: CRC Algorithm: Neoscrypt Block Time: 2min. Reward: 20 CRC Block Confirmations for Mined Blocks: 100 Block Confirmations for Sending/Receiving: 10 Block Max Size: 10MB Max coins: in 2038 Premined: Halving of 50% every year. 7

9 QUICK TIPS PoW has 2 purposes: 1. To verify the legitimacy of a transaction, or avoiding the so-called double-spending ; 2. To create new digital currencies by rewarding miners for performing the previous task. PoW usually uses graphics cards or ASICs (Application Specific Integrated Circuits) for mining and requires a lot of electric power. What is Proof of Stake (PoS)? The proof of stake is still an algorithm, and the purpose is the same of the proof of work, but the process to reach the goal is quite different. In PoS the creator of a new block is chosen in a deterministic way, depending on its wealth (number of coins locked in a wallet) also defined as stake. PoS does not require a lot of energy since the only requirement is to lock a few coins in a crypto wallet and leave it unlocked. What are the existing steps to invest in Crypto? Step #1 Do you research and pick a coin with the following characteristics: Good concept Strong team Transparency Long term use Step #2 Look for the coin s links to website, announcement and chat on coinmarketcap.com as well as the price graphs Step#3 Check which exchanges offer this coin. Step#4 Create an account with the exchange. Step#5 Pick an entry price based on the market and the coin s news. This will be your personal speculation. Step#6 Always have a roof and a floor price in mind, which means selling at a higher price for profit, but also have an exit price in mine to sell at a lower price than you bought, to protect your investment in times of big volatility. Step#7 Enjoy the ride and don t invest more than you can afford. What s the difference between BTC and XBT? Not too many people know this... THERE IS NONE. The fight over whether bitcoin s currency code should be BTC or XBT is ongoing (as of November 2017). When bitcoin was first introduced, BTC became both the abbreviation for bitcoin and its currency code. As bitcoin gained momentum and recognition, a large portion of the community asked for a better currency code that adheres to the International Standards Organisation s rules on cryptocurrency codes, mainly that currencies not associated with a specific country should start with the letter X, hence XBT. 8
