The stock exchange market has witnessed divergent dimensions. Just like it has grown enough to attract the investment and acceptance of strategic pecuniary institutions, it has also diminished comparatively in terms of value and functionality. As one of the oldest games undertaken by humanity from time immemorial, every generation ,irrespective of advancement and level of societal integration, wakes up at the click of the clock to face the very reality of the financial market and of course of its accompanying encounters. Even in the oldies when barter trade was the nucleus of commerce, the exchange of values which is today christened ‘Stock Market’ has never had a smooth sail.

The market has metamorphosed from one stratum to another, with differing challenges which has kept away potential investors and most important key actors in the financial industry. These challenges and limitations of the stock exchange market are caused by both immediate and remote catalysts. Some of the challenges militating against the stock exchange market includes but not limited to the risk and high cost of entering the market, the complex nature of the trading coupled with lack of background training on the technicalities of the market, stress and psychological trauma experienced by market players as a result of loss of money, lack of alternative or supplementary mechanism to deal with challenges, high commissions charged by financial brokers and the list goes on. This accounts for why more than 97% of players in the Forex market lose their money in the first four months of entering the game. As a first timer in the stock exchange market, my experience is not far from the afore-stated. In a bid to find alternative means to make headway in the market, I discovered a 21st century solution at www.stockus.io .

The Stockus platform is premeditated for players, who do not intend to lose their coinage at first strike in the stock exchange market as hitherto experienced in conventional trading system. It allows players to play on the stock exchange, increase trading skills, compete with players around the world and earn a weighty amount of money without risking your investment. The platform aims to create an avenue where new-comers can have time to learn the functionality of the market and at the same time make relative profit, while old moguls through the platform can enhance their prowess and make the best out of the stock exchange market; as the platform creates a multidimensional approach to exchange stock and it paraphernalia in a more remolded way. The platform is also considering launching three tournaments; two professional and one amateur. The propose tournaments will come up immediately the ICO is concluded or headcap is achieved. When you register for the ‘ICO’ at http://stockus.io/, the platform will keep you updated about other features and functions of the platforms through your mail and other personal messaging channels.

Stockus is a gaming and interchange platform, where various tournaments are held. If you prefer fast-paced gaming — there are day-to-day tournaments with big prizes. If you are more into building strategies — welcome to weekly or monthly tournaments, where prizes can be cosmological. The main advantage of Stockus lies in the fact that the size of the prize pool in tournaments is unlimited. The more players participate in different tournaments, the higher the prizes and vice versa. What it then implies is that players at different times are encouraged to continually strive in the tournaments, as the chances of winning is on a very high range. Furthermore, the platform creates opportunity for players to trade on major worlds markets. Players have quotes from NYSE, Nasdaq, COMEX, LSE, Euronext, the Toyko and Shanghai exchanges. What this implies is that players can trade round the clock without limitations using the platform as data will be supplied on not lesser than 0.04 seconds speed, unequivocally. Each player on the platform receives their own token account and Brokerage account. To ensure authenticity, these accounts are only viewable in the payer’s personal cabinet, where further information about account, active online transactions and tournament’s status if displayed.

The illustration below explains although in a sketch the Stockus ecosystem and how it connects the different variables associated with it, relatively.

The next illustration shows how the tournament works in the Stockus system.

Haven taking time to study the contents of the ‘White Paper’ downloaded at http://stockus.io/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/Stockus_whitepaper.pdf , you will agree with me that the platform is a gargantuan one and the developers are out for a big catch. To completely decentralize the platform and allow participants take advantage of the huge benefits of the platform, ICO is out on offer. The ICO offer was also considered because of the need to raise enough fund to achieve the prospects of the project and plan for the future.

The token used in transacting, trading or rewarding active participants is the STT tokens which is a standard ERC20 and smart contract tailored and channeled in that regard. 15, 000, 000 STT is in total supply. 2, 000, 000 STT tokens will be issued during the pre-ICO, while 10, 000, 000 STT will be out on offer during the ICO proper. During the pre-ICO, STT token’s price will be in-between 1500–2000 per ETH. The ICO event will witness the STT token’s price fluctuating in-between 250–400 per ETH. 1 million tokens will be reserved to encourage bounty program members, team members and founders. 2 million tokens will be reserved to maintain the necessary level of the prize pool of tournaments, payments on referral programs and the holding of advertising tournaments. After the ICO, 200 STT tokens will be offered at 1 ETH. Pre-ICO is set to hold in January, with the ICO itself set to be in February 2018.

The platform is a community-driven social media podium, thus to connect with other participants of the platform.
