QuickiFund

QuickiFund is a secure money transfer service which is used by John and other characters to transfer money quickly and easily. Instead of using wires (Which are very unsafe and easy to hack), QuickiFund uses a system of signals, with a layered structure containing information blocks encoded in Base17.

QuickiFund Locations
Name 	InFo 	Signal Processing Capacity (Signals/min)*
MARS 	MARS 	MARS
QuickiFund HQ (AKA QuickiFund Deimos)	The first QuickiFund facility to be built. It is also the largest building, with the highest signal processing capacity. 	200,000
QuickiFund Phobos 	Where Gavin Boras works. 	160,000
JUPITER 	JUPITER 	JUPITER
QuickiFund Thebe 	Quite small, but it has good enough security that Oliver Wiggins got arrested after breaking in. 	13,000
QuickiFund Ananke 	Used for both reflecting and processing signals. 	2,000
QuickiFund Kore 	Mostly unused now, but was previously a signal reflector. 	850
SATURN 	SATURN 	SATURN
QuickiFund Pan 	QuickiFund Pan is used for testing new technology. Because of this, none of the signals that it sends will be accepted by any other QuickiFund facility, as they will have a "Test" tag at the top of the signal data. 	175,000
QuickiFund Prometheus 	Only used for reflecting signals. Any signals sent to QuickiFund Prometheus that require processing are automatically sent to another QuickiFund facility close to the signal's destination. Signal reflection uses significantly less processing power, so it has a very high signal capacity. However, as QuickiFund Prometheus is currently the only main signal reflector, a new one may be built in the future. 	1,400,000
QuickiFund Aegaeon 	Not much information is known about QuickiFund Aegaeon. Most sources say that it was built somewhere between 1999-2007, but was soon scheduled to be demolished. However, for some reason, almost everyone had forgotten about it by 2010, so it was never demolished. Yoy Thire was one of the only people who knew anything about it, as it was mainly used by Palleneans until QuickiFund Pallene was built in 2006. The signal capacity is unknown, as nobody knows exactly how many signals were sent in the Signal Explosion.	>10,000,000 send capacity?
QuickiFund Pallene 	QuickiFund Pallene was built to allow faster signal processing for inner moons of Saturn, as QuickiFund Aegaeon was no longer in use and there were not many alternatives at the time. 	40,000
QuickiFund Polydeuces 	Before QuickiFund Aegaeon was built, this was the only Saturnian QuickiFund Facility available. However, QuickiFund Pallene now handles 80% of incoming signals to Saturn. 	10,000
QuickiFund Loge 	This is almost never used, and as only a few people work there to maintain the facility, it may be shut down in the near future. 	600
URANUS 	URANUS 	URANUS
QuickiFund Cordelia 	Used slightly less than QuickiFund Caliban. 	30,000
QuickiFund Caliban 	Used for processing and verifying Uranian signals, but can also reflect some signals. 	35,000
NEPTUNE 	NEPTUNE 	NEPTUNE
QuickiFund Thalassa 	Processes most of the signals close to Neptune. 	27,000
QuickiFund Neso 	QuickiFund Neso was originally not going to be built as it would be hard to direct signals to it. However, in 2002 it was built anyway, and is now used for signals near Neptune. It is sometimes also used for boosting signals that were intended to reach further away locations such as Hydra, but did not have enough signal energy. 	15,000
*The capacity is estimated, as it would probably not be a very goog idea to send millions of signals to a QuickiFund facility and see what happens.
== History ==
QuickiFund was started by David Karnheklioudæ in 1974 as people on Deimos were finding it difficult to travel to send money to different craters, due to the dusty surface being hard to walk on. He created a rail system where people could secure money into a box, load it onto a QuickiTrain and wait for it to be delivered to the destination QuickiTrainStation. Over the years, this expanded into a network of rails traveling to every Deimian crater. In 1977, QuickiFund HQ was built in Voltaire Crater, and was used for a long time as a location where unclaimed money would stay until someone collected it. This QuickiTrain system remained until 1990, when David and a few of his goog fiends started trying to shift QuickiFund to be an on_line money transfer service. At this time, it was still relatively small and only used by a few thousand people on Deimos, and he wanted to make it available to more people on different moons and asteroids. In late 1991, the QuickiCredit system was created, where people could enter money into their computer and receive QuickiFund Money Credit Point Money Objects.
