LOS ANGELES, CA, March 19, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Reign Sapphire Corp. (RGNP) ("Reign" or “the Company"), a direct-to-consumer custom and branded jewelry company operating jewelry sales, jewelry technology and blockchain divisions, today provided further updates on key features and timeline for Reign Coin, the Company’s sapphire-backed cryptocurrency.
As previously announced, Reign intends to launch an Initial Coin Offering (“ICO”), subject to regulatory approval.
Reign Coin’s Proposed Key Features:
Sapphire-backed
Reign Coins are unique in the sense that they are backed by calibrated Australian sapphires processed under the supervision of the company and using the company’s ethical and sustainable supply chain.
Crypto-dividends (Airdrops)
As the network’s collectively owned assets earn interest and fees through means of transacting, that growth can be shared by all coin holders in the network. Each wallet can passively collect a portion of Reign Coin’s growth in the form of new Reign Coins, which can be air-dropped to each address.
Possible Reserve Solutions
We intend to have a reserve of Reign Coin acting as a reservoir. These Reign Coins would not be in public circulation. The reserve can slowly sell these coins and use those proceeds to further back Reign Coin by acquiring assets.
Growth by Transaction
Each Reign Coin transaction generates a transaction fee. A portion of the cumulative transaction fees can be reinvested into acquiring and processing additional Australian sapphires, the asset that is backing each Reign Coin. This should increase the base price as well as improve the solidity of each coin.
“We have made significant progress and look forward to releasing Reign Coin’s white paper. We are confident that Reign Coin will complement our existing businesses and add long-term shareholder value,” states Reign CEO Joseph Segelman.
Reign intends to release the white paper within the next eight weeks and expects to commence Reign Coin’s token presale in Q3 2018, subject to regulatory approval. The Company cannot guarantee that its ICO will be deemed effective, or that, due to the changing regulatory nature of ICO's in general, whether the ICO will actually take place.
