Vision
Digital Finance

„We believe that blockchain


technology can make life better for
everyone in 21st century. We help
assets and asset-based blockchain
projects to get to the general public
by providing liquidity and financial
solutions through our own platform.”
We believe in digital finances, may it be gold or the latest payment solution. We create
opportunity, think outside the box and simplify finances. How? Obviously on blockchain. We
innovate and keep moving forward using the latest technologies, so we can provide you the
best services on fair prices.

Virtual currencies
We aim to help these digital assets with raising their everyday usability and liquidity
to the level of conventional money, by integrating the sustainable value of gold into the
21st century environment of digital currencies. We are opening the gates to creating an
independent, trustworthy and stable payment system and work as a bridge between the
digital world and traditional financial systems.
Abstract
BlockBen Whitepaper

Abstract
BlockBen (trading as BlockBen Financial Services OÜ) was founded in 2018 with the aim of
developing an enterprise privileged blockchain platform for assets. Our current products are
the gold-backed BlockStock and BlockNote digital assets. Due to their gold-backing, these
assets do not suffer from the instability and volatility that has plagued the digital currency
market, regardless of asset transaction type.

Our company was founded by professional leaders with a wide range of experience in the
fintech sector and in project-based organisations.

We believe that blockchain technology can make life better for everyone in 21st century.
We help assets and asset-based blockchain projects to get to the general public by
providing liquidity and financial solutions through our own platform.
Description
of the problem

Regulated
Many digital assets exist in an unregulated environment that gives space for misleading
market behaviour, and enables the misuse of information discrepancies on the market.

We change that by providing a regulated environment for asset transactions by ensuring


all transactions and assets on our platform are fully regulated.

Stablecoin that can be used


Stablecoins are going to be the focal point of 2020 but their usage is still limited to avoid
market volatility. Unfortunately, since they can only be used by existing crypto users, their
real-life use-case is limited.

We aim to change that through our own payment system, including our stablecoin
BlockNote that can be used by anyone with ease, in part thanks to our BlockBenPay
Wallet which is simple to use.

Real value behind assets


Many digital assets don’t have real value behind them. Most of the time a price change is
created by pure speculations, which keeps the digital asset space very volatile. In a certain
way the lack of value, or the devaluation of the value is also true for stablecoins, since they
are pegged to a Fiat currencies (increasing debts behind national currencies make their
real value diminish on a yearly basis), and in the case of a financial crisis these coins can
severely depreciate in a matter of days.

We change that by pegging BlockNote to gold. Every coin issued is 100% backed by gold
and carefully audited. Giving it a stable foundation makes it a secure investment.

Security
2019 and 2020 were full of scandals that hit the digital asset space time and again, like lost
private keys, hacks and coding problems that caused loss of millions.

Public chains, exchanges, and wallets have all been the targets for computer hackers, as
their public nature made them a good target for those with bad intentions.

We aim to change that by developing our own enterprise blockchain platform that puts
security at its core and we minimise possible risks by not publishing our architecture on
public channels.

Getting in front of the general


public
Most blockchain projects have been used by a very small number of people. This narrow
circle of users does not give any use case that’s relevant for everyday people. They are
either too theoretical or not focused on a key problem that could create value for the general
public. 2019 and 2020 have had some promising initiatives, but the breakthrough is still
missing.

We aim to change that by creating a platform and assets that are easily convertible to
fiat currencies and a payment system that any user can utilize in their everyday life.

BlockNote (BNO)
- Stablecoin (Digital Gold)
In order to revolutionize gold-based transactions, we created a physically gold-backed
stablecoin, BlockNote. This digital asset works as a medium of gold-exchange, using
cryptography for:

• securing its transactions

• making gold a moveable asset

• paying out while the Client’s money is invested in gold

• webshop / online payments

• on-site payment method at shops

• serving as digital gold investment

• executing fast transactions

Each BlockNote represents 0.01 gram of real gold, materially and legally ensured by
international gold traders. That keeps the value of the digital asset dependent on the rate
of the gold market, financially bullet-proof for investments and various other economic
operations.

Benefits for customers


• Customers obtain a digital currency with 100% physical gold-backing, which is
independent from the currency of any given country.

• This digital asset is an alternative currency, allowing intermediate transactions and


payments from all over the world.

• Customers can buy gold at world market price, even if they purchase just a small
quantity of BNO.

• It can be converted into EUR anytime.

• Ideal for investment diversification.


BlockBen Whitepaper
12 // 36

Benefits for merchants


• It attracts new customers.

• BlockNote can prevent chargebacks.

• Immediate transactions.

• Income arrives in a 100% physically gold-backed stablecoin.

• Transaction fees are lowered compared to credit card purchases and other wallet
providers.

For further information about the legal structure behind BlockNote, please read our general
terms and conditions on our website.

How does it work?


Buy, sell, transfer / pay with digital gold and convert it to EUR anytime.

Customers have a digital wallet (BlockBenPay Wallet) where they can manage their
purchased BlockNote, make payments via BlockBenPay community, execute transfers
between wallets, convert BlockNote to traditional fiat currency, and initiate EUR transfers to
their own bank accounts.

This secure wallet serves as the digital representation of ownership of assets and is linked
to customers’ dedicated investment gold deposit account.

BlockNote also powers our GoldBack reward program, where participating vendors accept
payments in BNO and can offer real-time refunds - GoldBack - to their customers.

You can find more information on BlockNote.gold.

BlockNoteX (BNOX)
- Digital Gold on Ethereum
BlockNoteX (BNOX) is digital asset with a 100% gold deposit on the Ethereum blockchain,
which is regulated within the European Union. The regularly audited gold deposit is stored
in 0.9999 fine investment gold. Physically it is stored and insured in Zurich. A 100 BNOX is
equal to 1 gram of gold.

Due to our unique Client Protection Principles (CPP) there is a possibility for damage control
in case of compromised Ethereum wallets and lost digital keys. Besides the gold deposit is
registered under the name of the owner.

BNOX is fully integrated into the BlockBen platform, thus EUR based FIAT gateway is
provided.

Characteristics of BNOX
• BNOX is a 100% gold-backed digital asset with regular audit, and it’s regulated within
the European Union

• 100 BNOX/BNO = 1 gram of gold

• The gold deposit is registered under the name of the owner as a part of our Client
Protection Principles (CPP)

• Possibility for damage control if the Ethereum wallet gets compromised or the digital
key necessary for login is lost

• Receiving and transferring back EUR to the Client’s bank account through BlockBenPay
Wallet

• In order to keep, send or receive BNOX in any Ethereum Wallet, completing a KYC pro-
cess is mandatory (whitelisting).
BlockBen Whitepaper
14 // 36

Token info
• Token type: Ethereum ERC20

• Ticker Symbol: BNOX

• Established: 2020

• Total Supply: BNOX is not a pre-mined coin, new coins will be generated everytime
there is an issuance.

• Issuance: Minting

• Transfer fee: 0,1%. (0.06% BlockStock Gold Pool and 0.04% platform fee)

BlockStock (BSO)
– Unlimited Growth Potential
BlockStock is BlockBen’s technical digital asset responsible for every transaction validation
that occurs on the BlockBen platform.

The role of BlockStock

The primary function of BlockStock is the execution of asset transactions operating on the
BlockBen platform (currently BlockNote is the only one, but additional assets are in the
pipeline). In other words, BlockStock is the technical digital asset used for maintaining and
operating our blockchain system. BlockStock has a key role in transaction validation: every
single transaction executed in our blockchain system is validated by two, randomly selected
BlockStocks.

Advantages of BlockStock

• 10% initial physical gold-backing

• unlimited growth potential – BlockStock benefits from all transactions made on the
BlockBen platform

• limited availability – pre-mined with only 1.500.000 available for sale

• simple access and secure trading


BlockBen Whitepaper
15 // 36

Unlimited Growth Potential

• More than just a digital asset

• BlockStock receives a certain amount of commission from the fees of every approved
transaction on the BlockBen platform.

• The system credits commission in gold and places it into a common gold pool, which
will be divided equally among BlockStocks.

BlockStock is more than just a speculative digital asset. BlockStock is a crucial element and
the primary beneficiary of all BlockBen products and services due to its permanent growth
potential.

Thanks to these, its initial 10% gold deposit has the potential to continuously increase.

You can find more information on BlockStock.gold.

BlockBenPay
BlockBenPay provides QR code payment options for both users and merchants. It is
designed to support multi-asset handling, which means users can store their assets in
different forms in their own wallets (such as EUR, BlockNote, later HUF, USD and other
currencies.)

The system provides users real-time transactions and immediate payment processing with
BlockBen’s own gold-backed digital asset, BlockNote. Users can make exchanges between
their own assets anytime, buy

BlockNote with EUR and vice-versa. Later other currencies will also be available.

BlockBenPay Payment Methods


BlockBenPay provides different types of QR code payments with different technical
solutions. Merchants can choose the best option for their own, unique business needs and
preferences.

A. BlockBenPay in-Store - static:


Static payment method at the physical place of purchase while there is no need for a
POS terminal.

The user reads the shop QR code and types the required amount. Then the payment is
processed – ideal for payments defined by the customer, giving tips, sponsor support,
donation, or any other type of remote money collection, even at unmanned point of sales
locations.

B. BlockBenPay – in-Store - dynamic:


Dynamic payment method at the physical place of purchase.

The customer’s BlockBenPay app generates a dynamic QR code. The merchant enters the
required amount to be paid and then reads the customer’s QR code. The customer approves
the transaction and the payment gets processed.
BlockBen Whitepaper
18 // 36

C. BlockBenPay Online – dynamic:


Online payment method for purchases made on the internet.

At the payment step during the online purchase, a dynamic QR code is generated, the
customer reads it, approves the amount and the payment gets processed. This payment
method is ideal for online purchases at webshops, collecting subscription fees online and
sending other dynamic payment requests.

Asset Platform
The BlockBen platform is an asset-based platform built to issue different digitized assets
in a regulated EU compliant environment. At the moment, you can use BlockNote (BNO)
and BlockStock (BSO), but it was designed to be able to hold “endless” number of different
assets on its platform. Our licenses provide a fully regulated environment for any metal-
based asset issuance.

BlockBen is looking for projects that are planning to digitize their assets on a fast, reliable,
safe and secure platform. We can support them with our legal channels to help them to
obtain the necessary licenses needed by the government.

We can only cooperate with projects that are fully licensed and follow all the applicable
laws and regulations.

Architecture
BlockBen Whitepaper
24 // 36

Architecture

The Natrix Platform aims to provide a modern and easy to use toolset for building secure,
yet fast applications in the finance industry. Each component is well-defined, tested &
documented, and may be used as a standalone package or as a platform, fully supporting a
microservice architecture and scalability.

The combination of the blockchain technology and various cryptography solutions allow us
to develop auditable & nearly trustless and legally binded systems where the integrity of the
database is always verifiable, even by third parties, while still keeping the data secure and
confidential for each member of the consortium.

We always have control over what is shared, whether it is fully private to keep our network
completely closed from the outside, or semi-open to allow third parties to verify, or even
read some of our databases. At the same time, we keep the system fast on its feet, as Natrix
can process thousands of transactions within milliseconds.

• Strong, passwordless customer authentication and authorization based on


cryptography with mandatory Two-Factor Authentication & device verification.

• Strict permission and ownership model with digital signatures.

• Auditable, all current and up-to-date data is present in the blockchain.

• Transaction based communication, everything can be traced, each user request must
have a valid digital signature from a device.

• Encrypted by default, the blockchain’s integrity can be verified by anyone without


revealing anything about its content.

• Secure group-based sharing, only those who have the right cryptographic keys can
read the actual content. The data models can be carefully annotated so everyone can
read only what they need to. Access can be granted post factum.

• With zero-knowledge verification, we can prove a given record is present in our


database, without revealing anything about it. We may also allow others to address
this data and send transactions to it securely.

• Easy to use and fast key-value store interface for interacting with the blockchain.

• Powerful and secure smart-contract execution runtime. We run the custom code from
the blockchain through a carefully designed API, giving you the best of both worlds:
secure & trusted code execution combined with hassle-free, easy development.
BlockBen Whitepaper
25 // 36

• Active & passive validation. Smart-contracts are guaranteed to be trustworthy, hashes


are stored and regularly verified in the blockchain, ownership is guaranteed with digital
signatures.

• Multi-tenant by design. Run multiple, connected blockchain clusters, optionally share


data, manage your own smart-contract runtimes.

• Support for Authority groups. These groups allow certain members of the consortium
(or for a central/government authority) to read pre-determined parts of the database,
and/or put the blockchain into a read-only mode.
