Q1 from Telegram user @Jonahapagu

CoinZoom Is operating in the United States.. the US is known to have a lot of issues regarding the regulation of Crypto-Currencies and Cryptocurrency trading platforms, so how is CoinZoom coping with the regulatory demands there…Do you have plans of restricting most of your features to only residents of US

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: CoinZoom is following and complying with all rules and regulations for US. We have money transmitter licenses in all states required. The only state left is New York, the Bit License. We should be issued that License in Q1 of 2021. We are also a registered MSB with FinCEN in all 50 states and territories. Our services are not restricted to just US. We have over 100,000 customers in over 180 countries on the platform that are using CoinZoom on a daily basis to buy sell and trade crypto as well as free money transfer services. The CoinZoom Visa card is currently only available in the US but will be available in the UK, Europe, and Canada in the spring of 2021.

GoldRocket: I see that you have good lawyers!:+1:

Mary | Satoshi Club: So, rules will be the same for all countries?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: What do you mean by that?

GoldRocket: How does the card get to anywhere in the world, for example?

Mary | Satoshi Club: I mean, for example, KYC will be required for everyone?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: CoinZoom is available to everyone around the world except for countries that are on the OFAC list. For example: Iran, Iraq, Venezuela, North Korea, etc.

Yes KYC is required to register and use the CoinZoom exchange

GoldRocket: Europe? Ukraine for example?:wink:

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Yes, CoinZoom is available there

GoldRocket: Yes I passed CoinZoom KYC. it was easy

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Yes it only takes a couple minutes

Q2 from Telegram user @phule13141912

As i can see,Using CoinZoom is not only intuitive for trading the crypto market, but also allows investor to spend their holdings in the real economy via the CoinZoom Visa card. How much ZOOM do I need to hold to get the CoinZoom Visa card? What will be the offer when I upgrade the card level ?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Great question. There are 5 levels of cards and they are all based on the level of ZOOM you are staking. You get the green “select” card for free. When you register with CoinZoom and deposit funds you automatically get the green select card and is activated immediately. Upon sign up you can started spending your crypto instantly. To earn cash back on the select card, you need to stake 1000 ZOOM.

Each Card level has more benefits and rewards. Staking 3,000 ZOOM gets you the “preferred” card. You can spend $1,000 per day and earn 2% back on every purchase.

“Gold” card you earn 3% back on every purchase and can spend $2500 per day. That requires 12,000 ZOOM staking

“Platinum” card gets you 4% back on every purchase and can spend $5000 per day. That requires a staking of 50,000 ZOOM

“Black” metal card gets you 5% back on every purchase, spend up to $10,000 per day. And requires 100,000 ZOOM staked

https://www.coinzoom.com/cards/

Mary | Satoshi Club: Which is the price of 1 Zoom now?)

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: ZOOM = $.0634

Mary | Satoshi Club: So, it’s not hard and expensive to get preferred card:grinning: And staking also gives income, right?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Correct. Staking gets you the cash back rewards. You can also earn interest on our exchange staking Algo and Dash.

GoldRocket: What card do you own? Btw

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Black metal card of course

Q3 from Telegram user @Brainchest

Tell us about AI pattern recognition. I could not understand how it works and how to enable this feature of the assistant in trading.

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Hi. CoinZoom AI is a feature we looked to add but is not available right now.

Mary | Satoshi Club: What we will be able to do with it?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: It is not a feature. We are updating our site. We will not be adding it to our list of features

Mary | Satoshi Club: Ok, understand

Btw, are any new features that are coming to CoinZoom in the nearest future?)

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: CoinZoom allows users to spend their crypto at over 53 million locations worldwide and any VIsa ATM. Users can earn up to 5% back, using the CoinZoom Visa card. Our card is a true debit card. It is not a prepaid card like crypto.com

With the Crypto.com card, you have to sell your crypto and load the card first before you can use it. With the CoinZoom card, you preselect which crypto you’d like to spend. The transaction is all done at the point of sale. Our cards can be used at Hotels, rental car agencies and other places unlike like the prepaid cards of crypto.com and Bitpay.

The CoinZoom Visa card wil be available in the UK, Europe, and Canada in Spring of 2021.

CoinZoom also features a FREE money transfer service called ZoomMe.

ZoomMe is a P2P money transfer service. Think of Venmo or WeChat pay but for free and cross border. Most payment remittance systems like these are limited geographically and have super high fees involved. With CoinZoom’s unique wallet system we allow our customers to send and receive fiat or crypto to anyone around the world for FREE. How it works? Upon signing up with us, you will create a username for ZoomMe. Once that username is created you can share it with your friends and family all over the world. I sent BCH to my friend in Brazil in milliseconds yesterday. ZoomMe transfers Crypto instantly! If I had sent it out of my BCH wallet to his BCH wallet it would have taken hours.

CoinZoom will also be introducing margin trading, lending, and earning interest in 2021.

Mary | Satoshi Club: Wow, great feature! I think everyone should try it! Great job, Ben:grinning:

GoldRocket: What about the fees?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: https://www.coinzoom.com/fees/

You can learn more about the fees here

Q4 from Telegram user @AmirJosh

CoinZoom Staking initially supports two tokens — Dash (DASH) and Algorand (ALGO). Why did you chose the two tokens as your initial tokens on staking? When will you plan to add other tokens for staking?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: We have chosen Algo and Dash because of our unique partnership with our wallet provider BitGo. We will be adding more tokens to staking as we roll out earning and margin next year

Mary | Satoshi Club: What this partnership gives you?:grinning: Can you tell which tokens you will add?

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: It allows our customers to earn interest on Algo and Dash. I cannot at this time sorry

How do you ensure the safety of the digital currencies used by investors on $coinZoom. Any insurance policy in place to boast users confidence in $coinZoom.

Ben Crosland | coinzoom.com: Security and Insurance

The safety of clients funds is the main priority for CoinZoom. Cold storage Wallets are provided by BitGo, the leader in digital asset financial services. BitGo Custody carries $100,000,000.00 in insurance protections through a syndicate of underwriters through the Lloyd’s, the world’s specialist insurance and reinsurance market. And this premium service comes in at no additional cost (details can be found here)

The $100 million policy covers digital assets where the private keys are held 100% by BitGo in the event of:

Third-party hacks, copying, or theft of private keys

Insider theft or dishonest acts by BitGo employees or executives

Loss of keys

CoinZoom has chosen BitGo as its custodian because BitGo provides 100% cold storage technology in bank-grade Class III vaults and the BitGo platform is SOC 2 Type 2 certified. Advanced authentication mechanisms are employed to ensure the authenticity of data, and assets are distributed geographically and organisationally.

It is the account holders’ responsibility to safeguard their accounts by means including but not limited to using a strong password, enabling two-factor authentication and controlling all login credentials to CoinZoom.
