INTRODUCTION
Man is insatiable, and has always thought of ways to improve on existing solutions. Cryptocurrencies extended the mediums through which payment can be effected, but unfortunately, they are not very good at retaining value. Due to their high volatility-except for tether, one can lose or make a huge sum of money in seconds. This is not ideal, to be used as a primary mode of value transfer, or as a form of savings.

Kinesis is a decentralized solution based on the Stellar blockchain that ensures it creates a solution that picks on the positives of previous answers to the problem that went before it, and improving on the bad sides. Ensuring that token holders can get as much value as they can from their funds. It also encourages holders to spend that which they hold dearest, by incentivizing transactional activities within the ecosystem. Users also have multiple means of earning passive income with Kinesis solutions.

KINESIS DIGITAL CURRENCY
Kinesis ensures that it’s major currencies, KAU and KAG are backed by a 1;1 ratio to allocated physical gold (KAU) and silver (KAG), because they have proven to be very stable over time. The bullion backing the KAU and KAG are in possession of the owners of coins.

KAU and KAG are at the center of transactions on the Kinesis platform.

These currencies are linked to debit cards, which users can use worldwide.

Kinesis also makes use of the Stellar blockchain, because it is able to process transactions at extremely fast speeds, bring an added layer of security to Kinesis, has flexible transaction fees and customizable solutions.

PARTNERSHIP WITH ALLOCATED BULLION EXCHANGE (ABX)
Kinesis and its solution is being built in conjunction with ABX, who are a front-runner with regards to dealing with precious metals. ABX came on the scene in 2013, but what they have achieved in such a short time is remarkable-becoming the industry’s standard in 5 short years.
With precious metals being a component of Kinesis, it’s only wise to be involved with a player such as ABX seeing they have extensive knowledge of the industry, and their technical know-how will be used to create a solution that truly solves a problem. Having such a team saves time on R & D, and also ensures that its solutions can go to the market ASAP.

CONCLUSION
Kinesis ensures that the way we manage assets such as gold and silver that we hold dear is revised, because with Kinetic incentivizing this to a high level, users can earn incredible passive income by carrying out different activities on the platform. With gold having a stable price across centuries, it is an awesome tool to retain value, while earning additional income from it.

Kinesis not being as volatile as other cryptos is as a result of it not being your everyday crypto. This is the reason why it’s being backed by a 1:1 ratio to physical gold and silver. The stability of these precious metals ensures that kinesis coins are very much stable.

The bullion market and OTC alternatives are fraught with archaic technology and inefficient processes that need to be upgraded. Users need flexibility and better ways to earn. Kinesis ensures that users do not need to visit financial institutions to carry out financial activities, but rather they have access points at their fingertips, along with multiple options to get their resources to work for them.
Kinesis opens opportunities up to average users that do not have experience in financial markets. Having a simple to use solution that can be accessed from anywhere, ensures that more regular, average people will be more likely to be a part of the platform. In so doing, dreams of achieving mainstream usage will be realized.
