Blockbid

Blockbid tokens can be used on the Blockbid exchange to reduce the transactional costs of trading on our markets by 100% during year 1, and a 50% discount thereafter. The Blockbid tokens are not used on a per trade basis. Rather, the Blockbid tokens will give you a time window whereby you will be permitted to trade as many times as you like for a discount.

ABOUT BLOCKBID

Blockbid is an ultra-secure exchange with the goal of facilitating the highest volume of trades for the most cryptocurrencies with a single login. Blockbid is being designed to help traders overcome three main issues; the inconvenience of needing to sign up to multiple exchanges, the unease associated with having coins scattered across multiple (and potentially untrustworthy) exchanges, and missed investment opportunities caused by time lapses in transferring funds between different platforms. Blockbid Tokens: Each token provides a 100% discount off the 0.1% flat fee.

WHO’S BEHIND BLOCKBID?

Blockbid is led by a team that claims to have over 150 years of combined experience. That team includes, according to the official website, “one of Australia’s top ASX traders, a brokerage specialist, well known blockchain experts, a former owner of a popular stock market research website, senior developers and experienced legal advisors.”

Key members of the team include Ben Sapper (CEO), Gabriel Govinda (Director), Matt Youill (CSO), Toby Tremayne (CTO), and Emma Hoffman (CMO).

The exchange announced itself online at the beginning of October 2017. By Q4 2017, they aim to complete beta testing, with a public launch scheduled for Q1 2018. Fiat currency trading will launch in Q3 2018, and mobile app trading will launch in Q4 2018.

The core Blockbid development team is based in Melbourne.

THE BLOCKBID TOKEN SALE

The Blockbid token (BID) sale starts on October 22, 2017.

The rate is set at 1 ETH = 360 BID tokens during the first week of the ICO, rising to 1 ETH = 300 BID during the last week. There’s a minimum contribution amount of 0.1 ETH and a maximum contribution of 100 ETH per transaction.

Blockbid has set a soft cap of 1 million tokens. No more than 30 million Blockbid tokens will be created.

80% of the total supply of tokens is available during the crowdsale. 12% is reserved for the founders and 8% for bounties.

HOW DO BLOCKBID TOKENS WORK?

Blockbid tokens can be used to reduce transaction costs on the Blockbid exchange. Token holders will receive a 100% discount on transaction costs during the first year of operation, with a 50% discount every year thereafter.

The tokens will not be used on a per-trade basis. Instead, the tokens give you a time window during which you’re permitted to trader as many times as you like for a discount. 1 Blockbid token gives you a 30 minute window.

Traders can use that trading window however they like. They can stack multiple tokens together to extend the trading window. So if you spend 6 BID tokens, you’ll enjoy no fee trading for 3 hours.

CONCLUSION

Blockbid is a new cryptocurrency exchange preparing to launch before the end of the year. The Australian-based exchange aims to offer superior service, speed, and transaction fees compared to other exchanges on the market. It also aims to offer a greater number of fiat currency pairs and cryptocurrency pairs than any other exchange in the world.

Overall, Blockbid seems to have very ambitious goals in mind. The company claims its exchange can process 1 million transactions per second. Plus, Blockbid token holders won’t need to pay transaction fees. You spend a Blockbid token, then receive free trading during a 30 minute window. After the first year, Blockbid token holders will get a 50% discount on trading fees (which are set at just 0.10% to begin with).

Ultimately, if Blockbid is successful, it could become one of the world’s most popular and successful cryptocurrency exchanges. However, there’s no publicly available platform at the moment, so it’s hard to verify the claims made by Blockbid at this point.
