We Are Currently In The Process Of Updating The Website Details To Reflect Such Changes.
The PEACHAIN Network
The PEACHAIN Network is a decentralized progressive web application (PWA) incorporating Ethereum blockchain technology through Infura currently under development by Peach State Innovation and Technology.
The application is a scalable, decentralized social network-marketplace platform for the PeachCoin virtual community, comprised of individuals, local businesses, communities, and municipalities that use and accept the non-exclusive cryptographic complementary currency PeachCoin (Symbol: NS21, Technical name: NewSouth21Token), an ERC-20 Ethereum complementary currency and medium of exchange.
Through PeachCoin (NS21), we seek to facilitate economic stimulus, activity and community development through the use of a complementary currency deployed upon blockchain technology . Whether through commercial exchanges or municipal usage to fund municipal projects, services and facilitate inter-fund transfers, the individuals, businesses, and communities that choose to use and accept PeachCoin as a complementary currency are making a responsive commitment to support, enhance, and sustain their respective community economies.
The utilization of PeachCoin as a complementary currency could facilitate capital preservation and commercial activity within local communities, potentially alleviating the economic disparities that are affecting some of the state's communities while potentially providing economic stimulus in economically under-performing communities.
Through the PEACHAIN Network, PeachCoin (NS21) and the initiatives of Peach State Innovation and Technology,
we seek to offer a solution to economic stimulus in communities by promoting economic activity through a complementary cryptographic currency built on blockchain technology to connect communities with goods, services, resources, and monetizing activities for community improvement. These economic concerns were highlighted, leading to the creation and establishment of the House Rural Development Council by the Georgia House of Representatives in 2017 and have been further accentuated due to the economic impact of the Coronavirus pandemic.
The PeachCoin Advantage
Through the use of a non-exclusive cryptographic complementary currency PeachCoin (NS21), we leverage the security, transparency, and immutability mechanisms native to blockchain technology, making the technology ideal for complementary currency and commerce systems implementation by facilitating trade, commerce and records management. Since all transactions occur and are recorded on the blockchain, it allows exchange users to keep track of digital currency transactions without the need for central record keeping.
Anyone utilizing PeachCoin may spend or accept PeachCoins for payment with the acceptance terms set by businesses, merchants, and retailers---for example, acceptance payment terms can be "50/50" or 50% U.S. dollars and 50% PeachCoins (NS21). PeachCoin (NS21) can be obtained in exchange for U.S. dollars at a rate of 90 US dollars ($90.00) per PeachCoin (NS21). PeachCoins can be exchanged to pay for the goods or services offered by participating community businesses. For instance, 1 PeachCoin can be used for a $100 purchase. Also, since PeachCoin is a complementary currency in cryptographic form, it is divisible and can make micro-payments. For example, 0.10 PeachCoin is equivalent to $10, 0.01 PeachCoin is equivalent to $1, 0.0025 PeachCoin is equivalent to 25 cents or 0.25c, etc.
One may ask, if PeachCoin is a complementary currency and exchanges at an equivalence to national currency, why isn't $100 US dollars exchanged for one PeachCoin. The 10% discount is part of the US Dollars-to-PeachCoin exchange rate, as all currencies have various paired exchange rates. Complementary currencies, such as PeachCoin, have transactional exchange equivalence to a country's legal tender, as this is the nature of a complementary currency. With the exception of PeachCoin (NS21) being cryptographic and its subsequent implicit benefits , our complementary currency structure is similar to Berkshares, one of the nation's longest and most successful domestic traditional complementary currency models . For additional clarity, we reference the Berkshares transaction example as we found it exemplary in outlining how a complementary currency transaction flows. We will walk you through a transaction of PeachCoin being utilized for a purchase.
For instance, you decide to that you're taking the family out to dinner evening. You would go and view your community's or other locale's hub on the PEACHAIN application and select the checkbox for restaurants to identify and highlight on the map, local restaurants in your community area that are a part of the PEACHAIN Network and accept PeachCoin as a local complementary currency. You acquire onePeachCoin (NS21) at $90 and store it in your digital wallet . The 90 dollars ($90.00) that you exchange acquire one PeachCoin (NS21) with the complementary currency exchange denominated equivalence of 100 U.S. dollars ($100.00) upon exchange. When you have dinner at the restaurant , the total cost is $100. The restaurant accepts PeachCoin, so you pay the full dinner cost with one PeachCoin which has the complementary currency exchange equivalence of $100.00, through digital transfer to the local restaurant's digital wallet. At this point you have essentially spent $90.00 dollars and received a $100 meal - a 10% discount afforded to the user by PeachCoin. As for the local restaurant owner, being that PeachCoin (NS21) is a complementary currency, it is treated as ordinary income by the IRS in terms of taxation and can be utilized by the restaurant owner to pay employees partially with PeachCoin or acquire goods or services from other local or state community merchants, professionals, and businesses that accept PeachCoin.
The PEACHAIN Application
The PEACHAIN Application, a web 3.0 enabled, flip-style user interface design with "retro-nostalgia" appeal, consists of virtual communities or "hubs" that comprise the network with each having its own community profile page. Each community's profile page or "hub", is highlighted with a community "birds-eye" traffic overview powered by Google Maps underscored by nine community "blocks". Each "block" plays an integral role in the systemic objective of the PEACHAIN application by: 1) serving as a portal promoting social and commercial engagement by fostering local community economic development and activity, highlighting channels of acceptance of PeachCoin (NS21), a cryptographic complementary currency and medium of exchange, whose utilization as such, is non-exclusive to the application, while 2) providing responsive, local community social networks that give local and hyper-local presence, connection, community focus and highlights, through user content contribution oriented tools.
