Focus on fully decentralized

Project
0xBTC is a faithful implementation of Bitcoin as a trustless, immutable Ethereum smart contract. It is not a fork. It combines the Bitcoin properties of block rewards, proof-of-work issuance, and a 21 million coin cap with the Ethereum properties of speed, DApps, and DEX trading.
0xBTC was the first token created to fill the need for an everyday cryptocurrency that is integratable, fast, and made to last.
0xBitcoin is not affiliated with either Bitcoin or Ethereum. It is an independent project with a decentralized development community.

0xBTC principles
1) DECENTRALIZED
Decentralization aligns network participants together toward a common goal. It encourages a robust infrastructure and resists censorship.

2) CONTRACT COMPATIBLE
DApps are here, and they will only become more prominent. Smart Contract compatibility means that 0xBTC can be used quickly and easily around the world.

3) FINITE COIN CAP
When governments, groups and companies can create currency on a whim, they whittle away the value of your money and leave you poorer for it. A coin cap is fundamentally a statement of respect for you, the money holder. Only the market will ever determine what your coin is worth.

Features
▸ No Premine
▸ No ICO
▸ First fully decentralized, purely mined, ERC20 token
▸ Token issuance only happens in exchange for PoW, like Bitcoin
▸ Token issuance according to Bitcoin's rules enforced by an immutable, trustless smart contract. No one has any greater authority or control over it than anyone else
▸ Resistant to 51% attacks

Specification
Token: 0xBitcoin
Ticker: 0xBTC

Pre ICO has successfully finished!

Hello everyone! Pre ICO has successfully finished! We managed to achieve our goals! Not all of them, but it doesn’t really matter now.
During this month we have gathered a lot of feedback on the project, conditions of ICO and much more.

Here is the most important news!
Our team is growing! UI specialists and designers have joined us. It’s very important for us since our project is a real challenge in the interface. In details, we’re changing the Internet and it’s interface as a whole!

Also we’ve been in touch with a few investors who are willing to invest money at ICO, thus at the moment we’re working on terms and conditions for large-scale investments.

Increasing amount of followers
People are interested in our project. During the month of Pre ICO we got thousands of followers who are interested in our project and are looking forward to the detailed information about it. Many of them suggested their ideas and shared their opinions with us.

What about the collection of ETH?

Public collection of money didn’t show an impressive result but there are a few investors with interest in our project. Some of them, in exchange for our tokens, have decided to join the project and support it. Thus we are happy to announce that we are getting ready to start our ICO!

To everyone who supported the project

Everyone who sent ETH to our address(0x00f18dBB7696132323754c3F69ac29c3261Abfc7) will get their ETH back + a bonus for their trust and interest in the project. Unfortunately we don’t know who sent the ETH and how interested they are in our project but we’ve decided that it’s the right way to return their ETH since we haven’t reach our goal at getting the soft cap. Your trust is very important to us. If you are planning to continue supporting us, you can resend ETH to a new address: 0x00F14ea9136f4F64aA0863Dd42cad065Fe23fae1

We have special conditions for our early adopters: 1000 ZenTokens per 1 ETH. You can get our tokens immediately. This address will be working until the ICO stage.

And also to subscribe to our newsletter: http://eepurl.com/cw5cHz

Unsolved problems
There are a lot of different ICO and advertising of other projects, thus our project is not visible among all this information noise. So, if you’re reading this message, share it with your friends, tell them about the project, how serious it is and how it can change the Internet. It’s better than any advertising. Your participation influences the success of the project!

What’s next?
As we have planned, we are getting ready to start ICO very soon. From this moment until the beginning of ICO we will continue our pre sale at the previous conditions: 1 ETH = 1000 ZenTokens. At the ICO the cost will be different: 1 ETH = 500 ZenTokens.

Good luck to everyone and let’s change the Internet!

Thank you! You will get your tokens and bonus
Good Luck!

Hello everyone!

It’s been two weeks since the beginning of our Pre ICO. At the moment, the results are not very impressive. Without spending money on marketing and advertising our Pre ICO becomes invisible among the many others. But we are not planning to give up. We have been going to this project too long to simply give up. Moreover, we need investors who understand the project and understand how it may change the world and change the rules of the game.

We’re actively developing, we’ve been constantly working on the project for the last two weeks. Now it’s time to pay our attention to marketing. We are a small and independent team and we cannot do both at the same time due to the lack of time. However, the project and it’s success are very important to us.
This week we are starting a large scale marketing campaign and an information revolution.

Thank you!

Probably you might have  technical questions about the project? Or about the concept?

Thank you! OpenZen is a serious project and we understand that the full implementation of it will take a long time. Of course, if we’ll be able to get a hard cap at Pre ICO and ICO, the development of the project will accelerate significantly.

And yet, we will do the project faster but not at the expense of quality. In addition, at first the access to the application will be given to all the people who will support us at Pre ICO, i.e. in fact the first access to it will be open in Q2 2018. In Q3 2019 the application will be open for public use. At this time there will be released a stable version of the app.

Hi. Have you thoroughly read the description of the project openZen? Pillar is a wallet, openZen is an ecosystem, it's a society with it's own rules. These are two completely different projects

We suggest you to look at the Internet as millions of similar websites and online services. We offer you an application that combines user scenarios (there’re not so many of them as it seems) in one application.

Here is a simple example. Now one can find a lot of websites dedicated to blockchain and ICO, or those that offer similar services for ICO projects. But the services are really similar one to each other and teams have to spend time communicating with each of them and spend money that could be spent on development of projects. And it’s always like that: ‘Do you need a recipe?’ – ok, have a look at all those websites that Google offers you. Or those people in programming have to always register and check all those forums.

A milestone is a transition from a ‘web browser’ Internet to an orderly Internet. At first it’s gonna be a simple social network that we all got used to with functions of communities so that people could talk and store information getting tokens in exchange.

In order to attract an ordinary consumer, it’s necessary to give them something they use in daily life: games, entertaining, communication, opportunity to earn on their active and useful activities. It’s like if all the authors writing in Wikipedia were paid for their contribution to the world encyclopedia. And obviously it’s a complete protection of personal data as well. This topic is quite extensive for discussion and I would like you to take part in it. How do you see the application? What kind of value can it give to you? And how do you think it should develop?   

Look, openZen is not a browser, there are no websites in it, no HTML, JS, etc. It’s a new approach to Internet communications.
Browsers are the applications that show millions of websites created by people. OpenZen goes a different way. We’ve collected the bests user cases and services and now we’re giving it to the user. It’s like an iPhone which combined a phone, a camera and an mp3 player. We combine the best practices and the most useful online services in one app. A user doesn’t need to look for applications from different producers, doesn’t need to register million times and switch from one website to another. It’s not as complicated as it seems.

It makes only a little sense to do Pre ICO with escrow.

And here is why:
1) We’re collecting 300,000 USD and the money will be immediately spent. Escrow agent will either harm the development by delaying transfers or just give all the money and in this case why use the agent?
2) It’s necessary to pay to the agent. If we were collecting 10,000,000 then there would be the opportunity to pay. But we’re’re collecting only 300,000 and the money will be used exclusively for the development of the first version of the application ICO preparation. Any other expenses will only thwart the project.

Escrow is obviously necessary for the ICO.

Is there anyone you could advise?

Ok!

Probably you might have  technical questions about the project? Or about the concept?
