E-commerce Global e-commerce sales are projected to reach $2.2 trillion for 2017 and to increase two-fold by 2021 to $4.4 trillion. Signatum 2.0 seeks to position itself as a competitive altcoin for e-commerce application. This will be achieved through developing and implementing relevant technology that facilitates e-commerce transactions as smoothly as possible. We will always strive to create partnerships and increase real-world utilisation. Open Source Signatum is open source. Anyone is free to contribute to Signatum 2.0s development and make a pull request through Github. Further details making community contributions as smooth as possible, will become available in the future on the new website. Decentralized Ownership Ownership and access rights are decentralized. This ensures that the long-term application and longevity is not dependent on a single individual anylonger. This safeguards not only Signatum 2.0s future, but also your investment and partnerships. Community Oriented One of Signatum 2.0 core values is being community oriented. Rest assured knowing that the Signatum 2.0 foundation team will always strive to collect feedback and suggestions from the community and evaluate the input. With the upcoming SignatumVote you will be able to not only propose ideas publicly to all Signatum 2.0 holders but also vote on what needs developing or prioritising next. Look out for SignatumVote on the Roadmap. Speed & Privacy Speed and privacy are core concerns for users today as well as e-commerce businesses. To ensure that Signatum is as effective as possible for e-commerce application, Signatum will maintain a high focus on increasing anonymity and most important on increasing speed of transactions - to always be at the forefront.

As relevant questions are raised, we seek to clarify these in this post. Please ensure that you have taken the time to read the full statement on the new official website https://signatum.org/ - if after reading this you have questions or concerns, please raise these here or on Discord and we will ensure that they are answered and addressed effectively.To be clear, the premine willbe paid out on day zero of the new blockchain. The payments will be made on a monthly/quarterly basis (salary/bonuses of sorts).and the funds will be controlled byandwithin the core team. We are keen on making this a transparent process. We are doing our uppermost to ensure that this is treated in a professional manner, aligning developers incentives with that of investors and keen to alleviate many aspects of principal-agent asymmetries. We are dedicated to making this work for all of us.Swapping your coins on to the new blockchain currently in development. This is an offer that we decided in unison, in the new foundation team, was ultimately the best way forward, to help protect investors personal savings and investments. We could have just as easily launched a new coin and not have bothered with the swap - and Signatums history - allowing the current chain to simply die a slow death, resulting in zero value of people's existing holdings. If for some reason after reading this you do not feel that this is the right direction for you, then you are of course more than welcome to put your faith in characters such as Skankhunter and Doctor and keep your current coins on the existing blockchain. Survival of the current blockchain is at the mercy of Skankhunter and The Doctor, who have been missing-in-action for a while and and clearly untrustworthy.Once the swap-period has ended, the remaining unclaimed coins of the total swap supply of 34,375,000 will be dedicated fully towards air-drops and the treasury fund. Of the unclaimed swap supply, 60% will be dedicated towards air drops and remaining 40% towards the treasury fund (to help with the operational and business development costs - as running a successful long-term digital currency, is an expensive enterprise).
