OUR MISSION

1. OVERCOME THE ZERO-SUM GAME PARADIGM

8th Continent does not want to reform the blockchain world, only use it. Take advantage of the decentralised, secure and provable transaction ledger. Nevertheless the potential of 8th Continent seems to be huge as it aims to address the problems linked with standard stock and commodities exchanges: overcome the zero-sum game paradigm. A zero-sum game is where total losses subtracted from total gains will sum to zero, or in other words any quantifiable gains by one party are equal to the losses of another party. Such an environment can be discouraging for many who lose their money. On 8th Continent Social Marketplace digital products will be sponsored by brands (for instance an energy drink will be called Red Bull) paying a small advertising fee each time a digital product bearing their brand name is sold on the Market. The fee will be divided equally between users and operator. This way the sum of funds circulating on the Market will always be higher than the sum invested by the users! Users have the choice to sell unbranded products or become marketers selling branded digital products and make extra income.

2. STOP DIGITAL AD FRAUD

The new paradigm is a win-win model for four reasons:

1. for the first time, brands can see where all their digital media dollars end up, and be sure that if they thought they had purchased ads from a given publisher, it really happened;

2. brand names will be embedded in the products’ natural environment meeting advertisers satisfaction;

3. unlike an ordinary advertisement, branded goods cannot be blocked because they will be listed on the market just like the other unbranded digital goods;

4. users and operator make extra money.

Advertisers will participate on both exclusive and non-exclusive basis limited in time.

3. LINKING REAL AND VIRTUAL WORLDS

Real products will be introduced on 8th Continent Social Marketplace in 2019 linking real world to the virtual one. Smart contracts are used on 8th Continent Stock Exchange, we plan to open late 2018, where digital companies reaching the 8th level will have the right to obtain extra liquidity from direct investors operating on 8th Continent, or from the outside, rewarding their efforts in creating a stable, healthy and trustworthy business. Smart contracts also guarantee investment plans offered by 8C Equity Investment Trust.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

8th Continent built a new Social Marketplace the first fully Digital Economy: digital companies owned by the users produce digital goods, trade these goods, stocks and other assets in digital currency. It is indeed a unique platform for Self Managed Digital Assets based on transparency, fair play, free market, mutual benefits, equal opportunities, as well as the deterministic mechanism of Smart Contracts embedded on the Ethereum Blockchain.
