Dear Real Economy advocate,

after 15 years since advent of Bitcoin, crypto community has not yet use cases in the mainstream. For different reasons, existing tokens are not suitable as a medium of exchange. For centuries, the recognised medium of exchange has been representative money. To fill up this gap, and bring crypto to the mainstream, we are creating the first ever Representative Digital Money. For the first time in the crypto era, we aim for the decentralization in value for currencies (as non-fiat stablecoins).

To provide the first use case, we leverage the inefficiencies and up to 50% overcosts of the global 1B cylinders per month LPG retail market to introduce crypto payments on the real economy.

Key facts:

• To build a private currency competition based on representative digital money.
• Target market is initially LATAM. LATAM is a commodities and natural resources rich market with 668M consumers booming on crypto.
• MVP is built and ready for beta testing with a real use case
• Start bottom-up in Peru, scaling to regions, asset payments and commodities
• Team has 25y experience in oil and gas regulation and IT. Also experience in financial regulation and compliance and monetary theory.
• Agreement with large retailers is neither required nor desirable.

The project aims for a new paradigm based on competition of private representative currencies. We are looking for a 6 x $50k private token sale from likeminded investors to run the FUNDING stage of the project.

We leverage LPG delivery inefficiencies to build the tools and processes and provide a real crypto use case built on representative digital money.

We create a LPG-backed representative token $CYGAS. We integrate $CYGAS, an ERC-2535 based solidity token, as the barebone of the GasClick Platform. We also plan to update the firmware of OSS HW Wallets (eg SeedSigner) and customize cards (e.g. Satochip) to provide unexpensive standalone wallets that rely on $CYGAS as a Medium of Exchange.

We learn from $CYGAS benchmark to define the principles and implement CryptoCommodity. CryptoCommodity aims to build a framework, community, know-how and tools to create representative money backed by real value. CryptoCommodity is the first decentralized token model supporting the Regression Theorem of Mises.

Please, note that, whereas representative money has an stabilization mechanism (as regular stablecoins), representative money is not fiat money (unlike commodities price pegged stablecoins as PAXG). And, as representative money does not build on top of the fiat system, it provides a protection of value for fiat debasement.

Representative digital money is the paradigm for which cryptocurrencies have been created and the core paradigm that will survive for crypto and DeFi at the long term.

We scale the lessons learnt from LPG becnhmark to other commodities and utilities by providing a Tokenization Platform that enables to any commodities provider to benefit himself and the society by minting his tokens and managing their lifecyle.

By tokenizing real services, citizens will be able to fund and solve their own problems.

Big LPG retailers use their orders information and marketing capability to increase prices and offer low quality work. LPG uberification will provide to specialized independent retailers the information that they need and rewarding work whereas reducing market prices and increasing coverage.

Overview on traction and operational tasks:

1. Setup an small physical retailer/shop to deliver gas in Lima. A trivial task: renting an small office space to hold LPG stock, agree with a wholesaler, buy some moto, hire a couple of retailers and get a government license. There are 16k LPG retailers in Peru.
2. Start delivering LPG in Lima will provide huge benefits to the project: (1) stream of income to guarantee project execution (2) validation of apps and processes (3) introduction of CryptoCommodity (4) users and a real use case for all the next steps in the roadmap. No agreements with big retailers are needed.
3. Validate the MVP apps (already developed and alpha tested) with real deliveries. Beta testing in real cases is needed
4. Setup a filling plant if suitable and convenient (Optional resource)
5. Run an ICO up to $6M.

Overview on planned scalations:

1. Scale to more retailers.
2. Scale to alternative payments and DeFi
3. Scale to other countries (see below)
4. Scale to other commodities/utilities (Catallactic)

Increasingly, citizens are looking for alternative solution to fiat money as it becomes weaker. Some countries are more advanced or suitable for geographical scalation depending on their crypto friendlyness and LPG delivery efficiency. The following is a proposed roadmap of countries to be addressed. The project should define the rules and create the tools for cloning country deployments as possible.

GasClick will be supported by LPG stakeholders. This accounts for a total world market of 1bn households. However, not all countries have the same opennesss to crypto innovation.

I am currently living in Belgium and available for any further discussion, proposals or suggestions. if you would be interested.

Thanks in advance,
