We recently interviewed Cryptoxygen’s Co-Founder, Irina, and are delighted to share about this exciting all-in-one solution for crypto traders. Without further ado, let’s get to know about Cryptoxygen and what it has to offer.
Starbase: What is Cryptoxygen and what does it do?
Irina: Cryptoxygen is an exchange platform, the first in the history of the cryptoworld, to boast complete solutions integrated directly in more than 1 million Thompson Computer notebooks and tablets per year. Thompson Computing is a French hardware manufacturing founded in 1893.
Starbase: Tell me about yourself and your team.
Irina: The team consists of 3 shareholders. First, myself, Irina, the owner of Licorne Gulf and Licorne Energy (specialised companies based in the Middle East and Texas in the US, investing in oil and gas royalties). I am passionate about and cryptotrading.
Second, Alexandre Katrangi, my husband and partner, who is an expert in Middle East markets for more than 15 years. He is a board member and adviser for the Saudi royal family and business consultant to Fortune 500 companies.
Third, Stephan Francais, named Entrepreneur of the Year 2018 and the owner of SFIT group handling Thomson Computing licenses. He’s highly passionate about technology and innovation. Since taking over Thomson Computing 5 years ago, he’s achieved one million units in hardware sales around the world, each year. Thomson Computing is constantly upgrading its products to the highest levels of innovation.
Starbase: It’s easy to tell that there are three members with a wealth of experience in investments and hardware. So, what inspired this particular this venture into the cryptospace?
Irina: Since the growth and success in the cryptospace, I was inspired to create a platform that acted as a complete, all-in-one solution to investors as many crypto exchanges lack fiat access, making it cumbersome for investors who need to go through third parties. Also, I felt that social was lacking in the crypto space and was inspired to make cryptoxygen a platform that provided the latest and even an online academy for crypto traders of all levels.
The idea of Cryptoxygen came to me last spring while we were in the midst of distributing and building brand recognition for Thomson Computing in the Middle East and Africa. We decided to engage in a joint venture with Thomson Computing, which would enable Cryptoxygen to reach more than 1 million potential users immediately, upon launch.
Starbase: You mentioned an online crypto academy. Could you tell us a bit more about that?
Irina: There will be online courses available for users of our platform to learn about crypto . This will take the form of podcasts which will feature latest tips, possible investments and instructional podcasts that will explain basic technical tools for beginner crypto traders. An online calendar will also be supported for traders to plan their trades.
Access to the online academy will be depend on the membership of users which will in turn be decided based on the number of OXY2 they hold and for how long.
Starbase: What sets Cryptoxygen apart from other platforms?
Irina: Cryptoxygen sees itself as a complete solution for crypto . One feature that is unique to our platform is how we will allow fiat access for debit or credit card holders to directly buy on our platform, without having to go through third parties.
Additionally, I mentioned earlier about social . Our platform will allow traders to replicate the trades of other successful traders and give them a chance to generate income without knowing any technical tools. The trades of users on our platform, along with their percentage of successful trades and revenue generated over 6 months will be visible to all to emulate as they wish, according to their available budget. Of course, we are also looking at forums on our platform that will facilitate exchanges between traders.
Finally, we will support a sandbox that will allow traders to deposit their , which will be locked for them to earn interest. This will be done in collaboration with financial partners.
On another note, users of Cryptoxygen who also purchase Thomson Computing machines will receive complementary OXY2 , the native Cryptoxygen , for on our platform.
Starbase: What are the utilities of OXY2 ?
Irina: For one, it is a currency that can be traded on Cryptoxygen. Apart from that, it can also be used to purchase real goods and services from our retailer network. For our retailer network, we are looking at firms in the environment sector and AI companies.
The OXY2 can also be used to purchase memberships on our platform which will accord them benefits such as additional discounts, access to our online academy and even products within our partnership network.
Starbase: You mentioned an online academy and discounts. What loyalty programmes does Cryptoxygen support?
Irina: There are four membership tiers. Basic, Silver, Gold and Platinum. Advancing up through the tiers will allow users to obtain debit and credit cards linked to their account.
Starbase: One way holders of the OXY2 can liquidate it is by it our for other currencies. Why should users trade on Cryptoxygen using OXY2 ?
Irina: using the OXY2 will allow users to reduce the payable fees incurred, such as withdrawal and deposit commissions and fees.
Starbase: Are there any plans to list the OXY2 on external exchanges?
Irina: Yes, we are now in discussion with several exchanges. Coin Exchange and IDEX are some exchanges we are looking forward to list our on.
Starbase: What can we expect from Cryptoxygen in the coming weeks?
Irina: Our new website has been launched at . We are also starting bounty programmes in parallel and the Cryptoxygen exchange will be launched in 2 to 3 months. You can also refer to our roadmap for more details.
Starbase: Starbase launched a bounty programme in February to allow our projects to reward community in terms of project in return for completing tasks like following you on social media, creating infographics and even whitepaper translation. Would Cryptoxygen be interested in it?
Irina: Yes, for sure. The Starbase community can look forward to a whitepaper translation from English to Chinese as a possible bounty!
