Process of creating Loom coin

Unlike cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and Ethereum which are proof-of-work thus are created through the mining process in the presence of power and internet, for Loom coin, that is not the case, instead,Loom coin was created to become a proof-of-stake coin. During its launch, 1000,000,000 coins were released. Out of this amount, 350,000,000 were issued to the company while another 100,000,000 to team members and advisors. Another 250,000,000 were issued to the public while another 300,000,000 were locked up to be released through staking. In the staking process, delegators assign their Loom coins to the verified validators for a given period of time. The validators receive income in form of transaction cost as well as the new coins of up to 20% pa anum. This income is then distributed to the delegators based on their delegation amount after the validators have taken away the commisions they charged for staking those coins.
