Dagdag pa rito, ang mga papeles ay ilalabas sa hinaharap, lalo na sa consensus at governance mechanisms. Ngunit dapat tandaan na ang ating architecture ay holistic at lahat ng nasasakupan ay mag-synergize sa modular na paraan.

PreambleAng misyon ng Bitlumens ay ang magbigay ng pagpipilian sa mga rural na

komyunidad para maghalinhan ng kerosene, kahoy o plastik na sustentado na kabahayan at magbigay ng dali-daling access sa mas malinis, mas ligtas at mas

abot kaya na enerhiya sa Latin America.Ang Bitlumens ay nagbibigay ng eletrisidad galing sa renewable sources gamit ang Internet of Things (loT) at ang Blockchain sa mga kababaihan sa rural na villages sa Latin America. Salamat sa solar energy at sa ating teknolohiya, nakakagamit na ng elektrisidad ang mga taon, makakapag palit sila ng kanilang electrical appliances at kahit ang pag dilig sakanilang mga pananim! Ang mga babae ay nagpapaarkila ng kanilang hard-ware at nakakapag bayad ng installments na naidominate sa BLS tokens. Ito ay nakakapag bigay ng credit score na nakakapah resulta sa financial inclusion at poverty alleviaton. Kadagdagan pa nito, ang mga miyembro ng pamilya ay pwedeng bumili ng token para makapag padala ng remittance na kayang icover ang mga bayarin sa machine, ibigsabihin ay kaya nitong mabayaran ang electricity bills at water bills.Kaya rin naming iquantify ang carbon mitigation at partikular na matter reduction sa bawat household para sa mga babae pata maging carbon credit issuers at later stage.

Ang mga kasalukuyang milestones ng Bitlumens ay:

1. Ang deployment ng 100 na off gid solar devices sa katapusan ng April 2018.2. Ang pagdagdag ng software para sa pagpapatakbo ng hardware gamit ang tokens sa katapusan ng May. 3. Ang deployment ng loT track carbon at ng black carbon mitigation.4. Pagkatapos ng June kami ay magdadag ng solar pumps sa aming hardware ecosystem.

Misyon

Ang aming misyon ay a ang mag alok ng oeer platform kung saan ang mga gumagamit ay nagaadopt ng off grid Solar systems para mag reduce ng carbon emission at makakuha ng access sa ilaw at tubig kung saan walang power grid. Ang aming plarform ay pinapayagan ang pag leas ng Solar Home Systems (SHS) para matapos ang installments denomi-nated a Bitlumens Tokens (BLS). Ang aming goal ay ang gumwa ng positibong measurable at environmental impact.

Kami ay nagbibigay ng solar energy para mai-remote ang mga village at consequencely na mabawasan ang CO2 at health hazards. Pinapalitan namin ang pag gamit ng kerosene lamps, diesel, plastic, biomass and bio-fuels para sa lightin at irrigation purposes kasama ang solar technologies. Ito ay nakakapag bukas ng oportunidad para sa mga magsasaka para bawasan ang kanilang mga gastos at tumaas ang kanilang mga ipon habang ipinalalaganap ang financial inclusion at sa ibang kaso ay nagbibigay ng trabaho.Ang aming digital na plataporma ang nagnanais at nagaalok ng distributed, managed ng consesus at off grid smart energy solutions sa mababang mga resource household. Ang aming plataporma ay nagbibigay sa UN SDGs, partikulars sa; Affordable and Clean Energy,Sustainable Cities and Communities, Good Health and Well-being, Gendr Equality at Climate Action.

IntroduksyonAng Bitlumens ay nag e-electrify ng rural area, na tumutulong sa pag baba ng

CO2 emissions, pagpapaunlad ng gender equality at nagpro-promote ng pinansyal na inclusion gamit ang kanilang plataporma.

1.1 bilion ng mga kababaihan ang nananatiling locked out sa kanilang pinansyal na sistema, dahil sa kakulangan ng proper idetification ng mga dokumento. Ang Identity ay hindi namin kailangang maging hadlang sa financial inclusion at economic empowerment. Karagdagan pa rito, ayon sa World Energy Outlook, 1.2 bilion na tao ang walang access sa elektrisidad habang 2.7 bilion ang walang access sa malinis na pangkusina. Maliit na parte lamang ng rural inhabitants ay may access sa electrification [see Table 1]. Kadalasan sakanila ay nakadepende sa inefficent at hazardous fuels, kati=ulad ng biomass, kerosene, plasric, battery torches at candles. Ang fuels at kanyang mga combustion process ay nagaambag sa pagpalabas ng greenhouse gases papunta sa atmosphere. Sa mga fuels na ito, ang kerosene an source ng CO2 at black carbon. Ang Black carbon or soot, ay isang particulate matter (PM) na nagre-reside sa iilang araw lamang hanggang sa isang natural pehenomenon na tintawag na coagulation ha-pens, kung saan ang mga cloud droplets at mga aerosol particles ay inaattract nila ang isa't isa. Ang phenomenon na ito ay nakakatulong sa paglinis ng atmosphere sa paraan na pag flush out ng aerosol particles. Kaya naman ang pagpalit ng lahat ng kerosene lamps worldwide sa solar lights ay pwede maging short-term action sa pag bawa ng global warming. Ang isang kerosene lamp ay kayang mag emit ng 100 kg ng CO2 kada taon pag gamit ng apat na oras kada araw.

Globally, ang pag sunog ng kerosene para sa ilaw ay nag generate ng 240 milion tons ng CO2 katumbas ng isang taon, humigit-kumulang 0.5% ng gloval emissions. Sa katunayan, ang pag palit sa kerosene lamps ng sola panels sa Africa at Asya ay nakapag salba ng 1.4 milion tons ng CO2 ay katumbas sa 2015 lamang. Bukod dito, sa pang araw-araw ang pagsunog ng 20 kg ng kahoy sa isang araw ay nakakapaglabas ng 200 grams ng PM2.5, katumbas ito ng paninigarilyo ng 10,000 na sigarilyo.

Ang sektor ng enehiya sa Latin America at iba pang rehiyon ay nagppresenta ng pangunahing problema para matugunan ang mga energy requiremnts. Sa katunayan, iba sa mga basang ito ay umaasa sa fossil fuels para matugunan ang kanilang energy demand. Price votality, fossil fuel shortages, govermental regulations sa presyo ng fossil fuels, geopoliti-cal settings, power outages at climate change mitigation ay mga major na key variables na kailangang isaalang alang upang masulusyanan ang enegry security. Ngunit ang Latin America at nagpesinta ng malawak na dami ng non-conventional-renewable-energy sources katulas ng wind and sila kung saa pwede itong pagsamantalahan upang maaddress ang power reliability at energy security.

Displacing kerosene and biomass Pinagsamasamang clean tech, fintech, the blockchain at cloud computing, Ang

Bitlumens ay nag aalok ng software bilang serbisyo (SaaS) kung saan ang mga kababaihan ay naninirahan sa mga rural na village at nangangailangan ng power ay

makakakuha ng acce sa Sun Home Systems (SHS).Sa maraming mga papaunlad na bansa, ang kerosene (paraffin) ay malawakang ginagamit bilang gasolina para sa liwanag at pagluluto. Ang paggamit ng kerosene bilang lighting fuel ay isang mahalagang pinagkukunan ng itim na carbon (BC) at carbon dioxide. Lalo na sa mga rural na lugar kung saan ang karamihan sa mga pamilya ay gumagamit ng madilim na lampara sa liwanag sa kanilang mga tahanan sa gabi. Ang com-bustion na nagmula sa pagsusunog ng gasolina sa loob ng bahay ay nagbabawas ng hangin na may mapanganib na mga particle, na maaaring makakaurong sa mga mata at baga, at maaari ring maging sanhi ng mga aksidente. Ayon sa iba't ibang pag-aaral ng 3.5 milyong mga pagkamatay ng mga pagkamatay ay nangyayari bawat taon ay nakaugnay sa mausok na panloob na kapaligiran. Ang mga serbisyo ng enerhiya ng grid na ibinibigay mula sa mga nababagong mapagkukunan ay hindi lamang maaaring magpalit ng paggamit ng gas na may mahusay na Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs), ngunit bawasan din ang mga mapanganib na epekto na ginawa ng pagkasunog. Ang iba pang mga mapagkukunan ng gasolina ay pine kindling, na ginagamit sa Latin America bilang pinagmumulan ng liwanag. Tulad ng gas, ang pine kindling ay madalas na nagiging sanhi ng mga isyu sa kalusugan, tulad ng pang-matagalang pinsala sa neurological at bato.

Ang langis at biomass powered wick lamp ay malayo na mas mahusay kaysa sa solar powered LED lantern. Tulad ng ipinahayag ng kerosene ay isang mapanganib at hindi mabisa na gasolina na ginagamit sa mga lampara na wick na nagbibigay ng mas kapaki-pakinabang na liwanag kung ihahambing sa solar lanterns. Ang mga lamp na gawa sa langis ay nagbibigay ng 1 hanggang 6 lumens per square meter. Ang LED ay may mas mataas na kahusayan - sinusukat sa lumens per watts-kalidad at dami ng pag-iilaw kapag nakumpleto sa mga lampang lampara. Ang paggamit ng mga LED lantern ay nangangailangan ng mga pagbawas sa greenhouse emissions at operating costs. Ang isang lampara na lumilikha ng 37 lumens sa loob ng apat na oras bawat araw ay makakapaso ng tatlong litro ng langis kada buwan sa isang average na halaga ng USD 0.35 kada litro sa Indya

Ang karamihan sa mga customer off-grid ay nakatira sa mga rural na lugar at sa mas mababa sa $2 sa isang araw. Samakatuwid, ang mga account ng enerhiya para sa isang makabuluhang halaga ng kanilang paggastos. Gayunpaman, ipinamamahagi ng mga kumpanya ng enerhiya (DESCO) ang nagdadala ng mga bagong porma ng kabayaran sa mga tahanan ng mga taong nakatira sa mga rural na lugar.

Sa pamamagitan ng pagbuo ng renewable power mula sa araw, ang DESCO ay naglalayon sa pag-aalok ng maaasahang serbisyo ng enerhiya at pagbawas ng greenhouse gas emissions sa isang cost competitive na paraan. Ang ilan sa mga kumpanyang ito ay gumagamit ng "pay as you go systems" upang magbigay ng access sa credit para sa mga taong walang access sa cash. Ang solusyon na ito ay isang pagpapaupa, na nagbibigay ng pagpipilian upang pagmamay-ari ng teknolohiya kapag ang lahat ng mga installment ay binayaran. Nagbibigay ang Bitlumens ng solusyon upang suportahan ang mga tagabaryo na may access sa mga ID, micro-credits, kuryente sa pamamagitan ng gamit ang mga solar panel at blockchain. Ang pagsasama ng clean tech, finntech, blockchain at cloud computing, ang Bitlumens ay nag-aalok ng isang software bilang isang serbisyo (SaaS) kung saan ang mga kababaihang naninirahan sa mga rural village at nangangailangan ng kapangyarihan ay makakakuha ng access sa Sun Home Systems (SHS). Ang latter ay user-friendly, eco-friendly, at smart internet of things (IoT) na mga aparato na nagdadala ng kapangyarihan sa mga unbanked sa mga lugar na without power grid. Sa madaling salita, ang aming plataporma ay nagbibigay ng mga opsyon sa mga komunidad ng kanayunan upang lunurin ang mga sambahayan ng langis, kahoy o plas-tic at magbigay ng agarang access sa mas malinis, mas ligtas, at abot-kayang enerhiya sa Latin America.

Inisyal na MerkadoNakatuon kami sa intersection ng mataas na availability ng cell phone, mababang rate ng electrifica-tion, mataas na bilang ng mga nasa hustong gulang na walang bangko, mga bansa na may rate ng inflation sa ibaba 10% at mataas na rate ng gasolina o iba

pang hindi sapat na mga fuels na ginagamit para sa kuryente.

Ang Solar System

Sa isip, ang aming Solar Kit ay magamit sa simula ng 15/20 / 50W solar panel at 3000 mah, Lithium Ferro-Phos-phate (LFP) na baterya. Magbebenta kami ng 3 mga sistema na darating na may iba't ibang mga kasangkapan, i.e. dalawang USB changing port; integrated dimmable LED lights; LED Backlit LCD TV; Radio at TV.

Ang baterya ay magtatagal ng 5 na taon at ang sistema ay may 2 na taon na warranty

Ang sistema ay dapat na magbigay sa mga gumagamit: ang magagamit na kredito, available credit, battery availability, electricity consumed, lighting duration, daily cost at energy output. Ang data ay ipapadala sa network sa araw-araw sa pagitan ng 7-10pm.

7

Ang solar kit ay konektado sa smart meter at sa cell phone ng gumagamit. Ginagamit namin ang mga programmable logic controllers (PLC) na nagbibigay-daan sa current upang masukat. Mayroong ilang mga circuits na maaaring magamit upang matukoy ang boltahe at current generation/consumption. Ang bawat sensor ay dapat na konektado sa isang analog-to-digital converter (ADC) sa Hardware ng Controller. Kakailanganin namin ng hindi bababa sa isang circuit sa input ng Solar Panel at isa pa sa output ng baterya. Sa mga halaga na ito kinakalkula ang power na naiproduce at naconsume. Ang smart meter ay gumagana sa mga solusyon sa LPWAN para sa IoT, na maaaring magtrabaho para sa ilang kilometro na distansya. Ang mga sensor ay magbibigay ng data sa anyo ng mga tekstong mensahe, tulad ng, available credit, battery availability, electricity consumed, lighting duration, daily cost at energy output.

Ang Blockchain

Ginagamit namin ang isang kumbinasyon ng mga on at off chain data sources upang makalkula ang credit iskor ng mga magsasaka ng babae

Off Chain: Ang mga digital na ID ay hindi bahagi ng blockchain ngunit magiging sentralisado. Ang bawat

user ay magkakaroon ng kanilang sariling ID at kasaysayan ng kredito. Ang impormasyong ito ay maibabahagi sa mga ikatlong partido na nag-aalok ng mga solusyon sa microlending, mga pamahalaan at mga bangko sa pag-unlad. Ang mga gumagamit ay makakakuha ng access sa mga microcredits sa pamamagitan ng pagbabayad ng isang tiyak na rate ng interes batay sa personal at asal variable.

On chain: Ang ideya ay alam ng aming mga namumuhunan kapag ang mga transaksyon ng aming mga

gumagamit ay tapos na. Matapos maipasok ang transaksyon sa system ng aming mga ahente, ibibigay ng Bitlumens ang mga ahente ng komisyon na nakatalagang mga token.

Upang makapagbigay ng pagsasama sa pananalapi, may dalawang mahahalagang piraso ng impormasyon ang ibinigay, impormasyon ng ID at KYC (Alamin ang Iyong Kustomer). Ang Bitlumens ay nagbibigay ng access sa isang platform na nagkokonekta ng mga solusyon sa micro-credit sa mga gumagamit na hindi pinalakas sa grid, nag-aalok ng SHS. Magbibigay kami ng mga kooperatibang bangko na may mga pangunahing piraso ng impormasyon na kailangan nila upang magbukas ng isang account o mapadali ang mga serbisyo sa pananalapi

ibinigay ang patunay ng wastong microcredit. Ang bawat user ay magkakaroon ng kanilang sariling ID at kasaysayan ng kredito. Ang impormasyong ito ay maibabahagi sa mga ikatlong partido na nag-aalok ng mga solusyon sa microlending, mga pamahalaan at mga bangko sa pag-unlad. Ang mga gumagamit ay makakakuha ng access sa mga microcredits sa pamamagitan ng pagbabayad ng isang tiyak na rate ng interes batay sa personal at asal variable.

Ang sistema ay binubuo (sa minimum) ng mga sumusunod na sangkap:

(i) A token creation smart contract (Ethereum)(ii) A utility billing system contract (Ethereum)(iii) IPFS (hash-based decentralized file storage)(iv) A centralized server to hold fingerprint data and notarize identity

mga kahilingan (aprubahan / tanggihan)

Magkakaroon ng koponan ng Bitlumens ang pribadong susi upang idagdag at alisin ang mga ahente. Ang mga ahente ay may kapangyarihan na magdagdag ng mga bill ng utility para sa mga kliyente. Ang gawain ay ang sumusunod: ang ahente ay papunta sa bahay ng kliyente, kinokolekta ang pera at bumili ng isang token sa merkado ng OTC para gamitin ng kliyente (upang magamit niya ang hardware). Bilang karagdagan, ang mga ahente ay nakakakuha ng isang komisyon sa mga token tulad ng ipinaliwanag sa sumusunod na graph:

Pagkatapos, ang agent ay gumagawa ng isang blockchain na transaksyon na naglalaman ng datos ng utility bill ng kliyente. Ang ahente ang nag-upload ng detalyadong impormasyon sa IPFS. Ginagamit namin ang mga IPF para mag-imbak ng impormasyon sa file mismo. Higit pang mga detalye, ang transaksyon ay naglalaman ng sumusunod na impormasyon: ang impormasyon ng halaga ng token, potensyal na ang ilan sa mga pagkonsumo ng enerhiya (ngunit ilan lamang, tulad ng imbakan sa Ethereum ay lubhang mahal) at isang IPFS hash sa file na naglalaman ng detalyadong pagkonsumo ng enerhiya. Ang bawat kliyente ay bibigyan ng isang numero ng gumagamit, na nagpapakilala sa kanila ng katangi-tangi. Para sa mga layunin ng KYC, sapat na para sa bangko ang humiling ng isang server (iv) na ang numero ng kanilang kliyente ay tumutugma sa tamang pagsasagisag ng laman. Sa sandaling mapagkakatiwalaan nila ang numero ng gumagamit, maaari nilang tingnan ang blockchain (ii) matalinong kontrata upang tantiyahin ang credit rating ng kliyente at lumahok sa isang microcredit. Posible ring magdagdag ng pag-andar ng credit rating, kung saan ang isang ahensiya ng credit rating ay iuugnay ang mga numero ng kliyente na may rating ng kredito, sa gayo'y mas madali ang proseso para sa mga bangko.

Ang area manager, ang ahente at ang mamumuhunan ay nakikipag-ugnayan sa pamamagitan ng aming web at mobile app. Nakikipag-ugnayan ang data ng kadena at off gamit ang oracles. Ang mga token ay maaaring palitan sa isang pampublikong blockchain sa pamamagitan ng Ethereum. Ang isang karagdagang patong ng mga smart na kontrata ay idinagdag upang mag-execute ng mga tagubilin batay sa mga kondisyon na natapos

Sensor Data Flow

Women farmers are the owners of their own data. Sensors collect data to verify carbon and black carbon mitigation.

Our clients own their own data. These data can be sold to the government or to development banks. The data runs in a private blockchain and is connected to our sensors.

Then, the agent makes a blockchain transaction that contains the utility bill data of the client. The agent uploads the detailed information to IPFS. We use IPFS files to store the information on the file itself. More specifically, the transaction contains the following information: the token value informa-tion, potentially some of the energy consumption (but only a few, as storage on Ethereum is very costly) and a IPFS hash to the file containing the detailed energy consumption. Each client is assigned a user number, which identifies them uniquely. For KYC purposes, it su�ces for the bank to ask a server (iv) that their client’s number matches the correct fingerprint. Once they can trust the user number, they can look at the blockchain (ii) smart contract to estimate the credit rating of the client and participate on a microcredit. It is also possible to add a credit rating functionality, where a credit rating agency would associate client numbers with credit rating, thereby making the process easier for banks.

The area manager, the agent and the investor interact through our web and mobile app. On and off chain data communicates using oracles. The tokens can be exchanged on a public blockchain through Ethereum. An additional layer of smart contracts is added to execute instructions based on predefined conditions.

License ng Software sa Microlending EntityAng software ng Bitlumens ay maaaring lisensyado sa mga bangko (SaaS) kapalit ng mga bayad o bahagi ng kita. Ang Bitlumens ay tumutulong sa mga Cooperative Credit Banks na magsimula ng mga bagong napapanatiling pautang, at pagkatapos ay nagpapatunay ito o nagbebenta ng mga pautang na ito sa mga third party na mamumuhunan kung saan ang bawat microcredit ay may piraso ng hardware bilang collateral. Ang prosesong ito ay nagbibigay-daan para sa legal na paglikha ng utang at paglipat ng mga pondo sa mga borrowers batay sa isang umiiral na lisensya sa pagbabangko. Sa bahagi ng pagbabayad, ang deposito ay isang nakikipagtulungan na Cooperative Credit Bank at lahat ng mga miyembro na humiram sa platform ay magiging onboarded bilang isang miyembro ng bangko na may buong AML / KYC at mga kaugnay na account.

Bago ang pinagmulan ng pautang, gagawa ng mga ahente ang angkop na pagsisikap sa bawat interesadong tagaroon, kabilang ang mga variable ng pag-uugali. Ang plataporma ay susuriin ang mga sukatan ng kredito at kumuha ng isang credit score batay sa nakolektang impormasyon at sa balangkas ng regulasyon na pinagtibay sa bawat bansa.

ang mga green verifier na patunayan ang mga pagbawas na itoTinutukoy ng mga kilalang Bitlumens ang mga kinakailangan batay sa malinis na mekanismo ng pag-unlad (CDM) sa ilalim ng artikulo 12 sa protocol ng Kyoto at kumita ng mga kredito na maaaring i-seal ng emission reduction (CER). Ang pagbawas ng emisyon ay nangyayari kapag ang mga taganayon ay hindi gumagamit ng biomass o kerosene bilang source ng ilaw. Ang impormasyong ito ay kasama sa balangkas ng pagsukat, pag-uuri at pag-uulat (MVR) sa ilalim ng Kasunduan sa Paris. Ang pamamaraan para sa pagsukat ay kinuha mula sa intergovernmental panel sa pagbabago ng klima (IPCC). Ang pag-uulat ay ginagawa sa pamamagitan ng mga aksyon na ginawa upang pagaanin ang GHG at sa mga hakbang sa kakayahang umangkop na itinuturing na may kaugnayan sa tagumpay ng mga layunin sa pagbabago ng klima. Bilang karagdagan, ang veriation ng data ay ginagawa sa pamamagitan ng pambansang MRV at sa pamamagitan ng ICA. Ang ideya ay upang lisensiyahan ang plataporma sa mga pamahalaan upang maisalarawan ang mga reductions sa paglabas sa iba't ibang lugar ng bansa batay sa mga sensors, IoT at blockchain. Ito ay magbibigay-daan sa pagiging malinaw at posibilidad na makapasok sa mga merkado ng Carbon Credit.

License the Software to a Microlending Entity

Bitlumens software can be licensed to banks (SaaS) in exchange for fees or revenue share. Bitlumens helps the Cooperative Credit Banks originate new sustainable loans, then it syndicates or sells these loans to 3rd party investors where each microcredit has a piece of hardware as collateral. This process allows for the legal creation of the loan and transfer of funds to the borrowers based on an existing banking license. On the payment side, the depository is a collaborating Cooperative Credit Bank and all members who borrow on the platform will be onboarded as a bank member with full AML/KYC and associated accounts.

Before originating a loan, agents will perform the due diligence on each interested villager, including behavioral variables. The platform will evaluate credit metrics and derive a credit score based on the collected information and on the regulatory framework adopted in each country.

Allow Certified Emission Reduction (CER) and Verification

Bitlumens measures emission reductions and allow green project verifiers to certify these reductions

Bitlumens fulfills the requirements based on the clean development mechanism (CDM) under the article 12 in Kyoto’s protocol and earn sealable certified emission reduction (CER) credits. The emis-sion reductions occur when villagers don’t use biomass or kerosene as lighting source. This informa-tion is included in the measurement, verification and reporting (MVR) framework under the Paris Agreement. The methodology for measurement is taken from the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC). Reporting is done through the actions taken to mitigate GHG and on adapt-ability measures that are considered relevant to the achievement of the climate change objectives. In addition, data verification is done through national MRV and through ICA. The idea is to license the platform to governments to visualize the emission reductions in different areas of the country based on sensors, IoT and the blockchain. This will allow clear auditability and the possibility to enter into Carbon Credit markets.

Ito ay kilala na ang deforestation ay isang isyu sa Gitnang Amerika, dahil sa kadahilanang ito ay kinabibilangan natin ang mga sensor na sumusukat sa PM2.5 at pinahihintulutan ang pagpapatunay na ang kahoy at gas ay nawala bilang pinagmumulan ng pag-iilaw. Bilang karagdagan, gumagamit kami ng satellite imagery upang makuha ang pagbabawas ng deforestation sa mga paligid ng mga nayon kung saan kami nagpapatakbo. Ginagamit namin ang koleksyon ng 4-band (RGB at NIR) para sa visual o analytic na paggamit.

Leasing machines to clients

Ang mga babaeng magsasaka ay maaaring magpatakbo ng SHS gamit ang mga token ng BLS

Ang impormasyon ng lahat ng mga aparato ng Bitlumens tulad ng serial number at lokasyon ay itatabi sa block-chain Bitlumens ay nakikipagsosyo sa isang third-party provider para sa mga biometric na solusyon at upang patakbuhin ang proyekto sa larangan. Sa Guatemala, nakikipagsosyo kami sa Amigos de la Aldea at may Brightlight Founda-tion.

Halimbawa ng isang karaniwang transaksyon: Upang masuri ang panganib ng bawat sambahayan, kinokolekta ng aming mga ahente ang impormasyon ng KYC mula sa bawat magsasaka at pakain ang modelo ng panganib sa data na iyon. Ang mga ahente ay nagpapamahagi at nag-i-install ng mga makina sa bahay ng kliyente. Ang mga makina ay naupahan sa isang panahon ng 12 hanggang 24 buwan. Ginagawa ng kliyente ang mga pagbabayad sa lease sa mga token ng BLS. Kung kinakailangan, ang kliyente ay maaaring bumili ng mga token ng BLS para sa pagbayad ng lease mula sa ahente. Kung ang mga pagbabayad sa pagpapaupa ay hindi ginawa kapag dahil naka-lock ang makina hanggang sa gawin ang pagbabayad. Kung ang mga gumagamit ay makakatanggap ng mga remittance mula sa mga miyembro ng pamilya upang masakop ang isang pagbabayad sa pagpapaupa, ang Bitlumens ay naniningil ng 1% na transaksyon libre.Naglilista ang mga bitlumens ng load load ng bawat makina na ginagamit. Maaaring masubaybayan ng mga may hawak ng mga karatula ang mga proyektong ito sa blockchain. Kaya, makikita nila ang ebolusyon ng proyekto at ang mga benepisyo nito sa kapaligiran at panlipunan.

Project timelineInaasahan naming magkaroon ng isang tagapamahala ng proyekto sa bawat 100 na gumagamit, na naka-install sa pagitan ng 60-100

system bawat buwan.

Ang mga rate ng default ng customer ay inaasahan na mag-iba-iba sa bawat rehiyon, ngunit para sa mga kadaliang dahilan ang aming modelo ay tumatagal ng 10% average rate. Pinipili namin ang mga kababaihan bilang mga kamag-anak bilang mga data na nagpapakita na mas maaasahan sila kaysa sa mga lalaki pagdating sa mga pagbabayad. Gayunpaman, ang mga kaso na ito ay kailangang tasahin nang regular. Ang aming modelo ng mga default ay lumipas sa paglipas ng panahon. Sa kaso ng default, ang ahente na nagtatrabaho sa larangan ay kukunin ang sistema pabalik at pagkatapos ay ibenta ito pangalawang kamay.

Ang aming system ay nagbibigay ng opsyon upang magdagdag ng isang digital ID para sa bawat gumagamit, pagkolekta ng data ng kredito, paglikha ng mga marka ng credit at pagbibigay ng access sa mga financial services sa isang mas huling yugto.Pagdating sa koleksyon ng mga ID na pinaplano naming makipagsosyo sa mga kumpanya na nagtatrabaho na sa mga imprastraktura ng blockchain. Sa India, halimbawa, ang sistema ng Aadhaar ay naa-access na ngayon sa higit sa 1.1 bilyong tao. Ang mga gumagamit ay maaaring magbukas ng mga account sa pamamagitan ng pagpapakita ng mga numero ng Aadhaar. Plano naming maglagay ng katulad na pamamaraan sa Latin America, kung saan kinokolekta ng mga ahente ang mga pag-scan ng aming mga gumagamit at i-save

these in centralized servers supporting encryption. In addition, agents will upload the KYC, load profile while the system will calculate the credit score based on the user’s credit history. We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month. Microlend-ing institutions are providing technical assistance while working closely with their women’s project. Hence, our goal is to train women and make them part of our team as agents. Their wages will depend on the region and are based on commissions. During the third trimester, we expect to have a regional manager to support us on scaling the project in the country.

The following table shows the breakdown of how we expect to invest the funds over a period of 3 years:

We started the development of an API. Our web api will communicate with oraclize. Communica-tions between Pay as you go systems front-end dashboard, loggers, and mobile app and Bitlumens back-end’s HTTPS server are via RestAPI/JSON. Bitlumens back-end system uses a PostgresSQL data-base to store the actual data points and IDs. It runs a full ethereum node, and is used for data retrieval and analysis. In addition, we will use Solc compiler, IBM Hyperledger, Ethereum, Java, HTML, IPFS, Native iOS/Android, PHP, Node, Golang and Haskell.

The role of the blockchain within Bitlumens operation is to record each user’s KYC information and the already predefined smart contract to preserve verifiable records of the contract’s conditions during each installment. In addition, we plan to move into microgrids once we had collected data on how much users pay per month, their load profile or electricity consumption and what is the power generation from each device. We aim to reduce the costs of utility companies who cant build hun-dreds of kilometers of power line to transmit and distribute energy. Decentralized energy systems give the option to rural communities to get electrified while reducing their carbon footprint.

On Bitlumens, the only state update that can be settled on the blockchain is that of a transfer of tokens. The platform allows for fiat payments in exchange of tokens. The storage and verification of data are placed on a private chain where only investors can access. However, women are the sole owners of their data and Bitlumens can only access it to optimize our processes. Bitlumens can’t sell the data owned by farmers.

We expect to have the smart meter ready in the second trimester as we plan to create a peer to peer

network for power exchange without the need of having a power grid. The smart meter will inform the user how much power has been produced, consumed and stored into the battery which can be traded in exchange for tokens. In addition, during the second trimester of 2018 sensors will be added to the solar home system to allow verification of carbon mitigation.

Bitlumens will be working with a solar manufacturer (Greenlight) who had shipped 100 units togeth-er with the pay as you go system within a two-week period. These machines are already in Guatema-la. In addition, Bitlumens had already started a pilot project in Guatemala.

Roadmap

Currently, Bitlumens follows these milestones in Latin America:

1. The deployment of 100 off grid solar devices by the end of April 2018 in Guatemala. We are already training the agents who are the distributors of the off grid solar devices.2. Adding the software to run the hardware using BLS tokens by the end of May.3. The deployment of IoT to track carbon and black carbon mitigation.4. After June we will be adding solar pumps into operational locations.

Token Specification and ICO rules

Our token is an ERC20 utility token, and aims to provide social and environmental transformation, where all proceeds will support the development of the software and MVPs currently placed in Guatemala. Bitlumens token can also be seen as a loyalty token allowing investors to show their a�liation with and support of the project. It does not represent equity.

The utility tokens are initially distributed in a presale (pre ICO) which starts on April 26 and lasts until April 30 at midnight CET. A maximum of 10 million BLS tokens are offered during the 72 hour pre ICO at a price of 2 BLS /USD. Only payments in ETH and fiat currencies are accepted. Bitlumens assists parties preferring to participate in the pre ICO in fiat currency. If all 10 million BLS were sold in the pre ICO, USD 2.5 million would be raised. Tokens that were not allocated in the pre ICO will be added to the ICO pool.

The duration of the ICO is 28 days. It starts on May 1 at midnight CET and is divided into 4 periods (see Table 4). On the first day of the ICO BLS tokens are offered at a price of 1.5 BLS /USD. Between the 2nd and the 7th day, the price is 1.4 BLS/USD and between the 8th and the 14th day the price increases to 1.3 BLS /USD. Finally, during the last 14 days of the ICO the price is 1.2 BLS/USD.

The ICO will terminate early, if an equivalent USD 25 million have been raised. This amount corre-sponds to the projected funding and investment needs for a period of 3 years.

The total supply of tokens is capped to 50,000,000, with the smallest available denomination being 0.0001. The detailed allocation of BLS among the various stakeholders is shown in Table 6. 25% of the tokens will be initially held by Bitlumens in order to provide liquidity to the secondary market.

KYC/AML

All participants in the ICO phase will have to meet KYC standards that are in line with best industry practice in Switzerland. Bitlumens will also perform an AML/CFT risk assessment.

Bitlumens fulfills the requirements based on the clean development mechanism (CDM) under the article 12 in Kyoto’s protocol and earn sealable certified emission reduction (CER) credits. The emis-sion reductions occur when villagers don’t use biomass or kerosene as lighting source. This informa-tion is included in the measurement, verification and reporting (MVR) framework under the Paris Agreement.

The idea is to license the platform to governments to visualize the emission reductions in different areas of the country based on sensors, IoT and the blockchain. This will allow clear auditability and the possibility to enter into Carbon Credit markets.

It is well known deforestation is an issue in Central America, for this reason we include sensors that measure PM2.5 and allow the verification that wood and kerosene is displaced as lighting source. In addition, we use satellite imagery to capture the reduction of deforestation in the surroundings of the villages where we operate. We use 4-band (RGB and NIR) imagery for visual or analytic use.

Leasing machines to clients

Women farmers can run the SHS using BLS tokens

Information of all Bitlumens devices such as serial number and location will be stored in the block-chainBitlumens is partnering with a third-party provider for biometric solutions and to run the project in the field. In Guatemala, we are partnering with Amigos de la Aldea and with Brightlight Founda-tion.

Example of a typical transaction: To assess the risk of each household, our agents collect KYC infor-mation from each farmer and feed the risk model with that data. The agents distribute and install the machines at the client’s house. The machines are leased for a period a period of 12 to 24 months. The client makes the lease payments in BLS tokens. If needed, the client can purchase the BLS tokens for the lease payment from the agent. If lease payments are not made when due the machine is locked until the payment is made. If users receive remittances from family members to cover a lease payment, Bitlumens charges a 1% transaction free.

Bitlumens registers the load profile of each machine that is in use. Token holders can monitor these profiles on the blockchain. Thus, they can see the evolution of the project and its environmental and social benefits.

Project timeline

We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month.

Customer defaults rates are expected to vary in each region, but for simplicity reasons our model takes 10% average rate. We choose women as final customers as data shows they are more reliable than men when it comes to payments. However, these cases need to be assessed regularly. Our model quantifies defaults over time. In case of default, the agent working in the field will collect the system back and then sell it second hand.

Our system gives the option to add a digital ID for each user, collecting credit data, creating credit scores and giving access to financial services at a later stage.

When it comes to the collection of IDs we plan to partner with companies who are already working with blockchain infrastructures. In India, for instance, the Aadhaar system is now accessible to more than 1.1 billion people. Users can open accounts by presenting the Aadhaar numbers. We plan to deploy a similar scheme in Latin America, where agents collect the fingerprints of our users and save

Inaasahan naming magkaroon ng isang tagapamahala ng proyekto sa bawat 100 na gumagamit, na naka-install sa pagitan ng 60-100 system bawat buwan. Ang mga institusyong Microlend-ing ay nagbibigay ng teknikal na tulong habang nagtatrabaho nang malapit sa proyekto ng kanilang kababaihan. Samakatuwid, ang aming layunin ay upang sanayin ang mga kababaihan at gawin silang bahagi ng aming koponan bilang mga ahente. Ang kanilang mga sahod ay nakasalalay sa rehiyon at batay sa mga komisyon. Sa ikatlong trimester, inaasahan naming magkaroon ng regional manager upang suportahan kami sa pagsukat ng proyekto sa bansa.

Ipinapakita ng sumusunod na talahanayan ang pagbagsak ng kung paano namin inaasahan na mamuhunan sa mga pondo sa loob ng 3 taon:

Sinimulan namin ang pag-unlad ng isang API. Ang aming web api ay makikipag-usap sa oraclize. Ang mga komunikasyon sa pagitan ng Pay habang nagpapatuloy ka ng mga front-end dashboard ng system, loggers, at mobile app at ang HTTPS server ng back-end na Bitlumens ay sa pamamagitan ng RestAPI / JSON. Ang sistema ng back-end na Bitlumens ay gumagamit ng postgresSQL data base upang iimbak ang aktwal na mga punto ng data at mga ID. Ito ay nagpapatakbo ng isang buong ethereum node, at ginagamit para sa pag-retrieve at pagtatasa ng data. Bilang karagdagan, gagamitin namin ang Solc compiler, IBM Hyperledger, Ethereum, Java, HTML, IPFS, Katutubong iOS / Android, PHP, Node, Golang at Haskell.Ang papel na ginagampanan ng blockchain sa loob ng operasyon ng Bitlumens ay i-record ang impormasyon ng bawat gumagamit ng KYC at ang naka-prenda na smart na kontrata upang mapreserba ang mga rekord ng veri fi ng kondisyon sa kontrata sa bawat pag-install. Bilang karagdagan, plano naming lumipat sa microgrids sa sandaling nakolekta namin ang data sa kung magkano ang mga user na binabayaran kada buwan, ang kanilang paggamit ng load o pagkonsumo ng kuryente at kung ano ang henerasyon ng kuryente mula sa bawat aparato. Layunin namin na mabawasan ang mga gastos ng mga kompanya ng utility na hindi maaaring magtayo ng mga kilometrong linya ng kuryente upang magpadala at mamahagi ng enerhiya. Ang desentralisadong mga sistema ng enerhiya ay nagbibigay ng opsyon sa mga komunidad ng kanayunan upang makakuha ng elektibo habang binabawasan ang kanilang carbon footprint.

Sa Bitlumens, ang tanging update ng estado na maaaring malutas sa blockchain ay ang paglipat ng mga token. Ang plataporma ay nagbibigay-daan para sa pagbabayad sa mga kabayaran bilang kapalit ng mga token. Ang imbakan at veriation ng data ay inilalagay sa isang pribadong kadena kung saan ang mga mamumuhunan lamang ang maaaring ma-access. Gayunpaman, ang mga kababaihan ay ang nag-iisang may-ari ng kanilang data at maaari lamang itong ma-access ng Bitlumens upang i-optimize ang aming mga proseso. Hindi mabibenta ng Bitlumens ang data na pag-aari ng mga magsasakaInaasahan naming magkaroon ng smart meter na handa sa pangalawang tatlong buwan bilang plano naming lumikha ng isang peer sa peer

network for power exchange without the need of having a power grid. The smart meter will inform the user how much power has been produced, consumed and stored into the battery which can be traded in exchange for tokens. In addition, during the second trimester of 2018 sensors will be added to the solar home system to allow verification of carbon mitigation.

Bitlumens will be working with a solar manufacturer (Greenlight) who had shipped 100 units togeth-er with the pay as you go system within a two-week period. These machines are already in Guatema-la. In addition, Bitlumens had already started a pilot project in Guatemala.

Roadmap

Currently, Bitlumens follows these milestones in Latin America:

1. The deployment of 100 off grid solar devices by the end of April 2018 in Guatemala. We are already training the agents who are the distributors of the off grid solar devices.2. Adding the software to run the hardware using BLS tokens by the end of May.3. The deployment of IoT to track carbon and black carbon mitigation.4. After June we will be adding solar pumps into operational locations.

Token Specification and ICO rules

Our token is an ERC20 utility token, and aims to provide social and environmental transformation, where all proceeds will support the development of the software and MVPs currently placed in Guatemala. Bitlumens token can also be seen as a loyalty token allowing investors to show their a�liation with and support of the project. It does not represent equity.

The utility tokens are initially distributed in a presale (pre ICO) which starts on April 26 and lasts until April 30 at midnight CET. A maximum of 10 million BLS tokens are offered during the 72 hour pre ICO at a price of 2 BLS /USD. Only payments in ETH and fiat currencies are accepted. Bitlumens assists parties preferring to participate in the pre ICO in fiat currency. If all 10 million BLS were sold in the pre ICO, USD 2.5 million would be raised. Tokens that were not allocated in the pre ICO will be added to the ICO pool.

The duration of the ICO is 28 days. It starts on May 1 at midnight CET and is divided into 4 periods (see Table 4). On the first day of the ICO BLS tokens are offered at a price of 1.5 BLS /USD. Between the 2nd and the 7th day, the price is 1.4 BLS/USD and between the 8th and the 14th day the price increases to 1.3 BLS /USD. Finally, during the last 14 days of the ICO the price is 1.2 BLS/USD.

The ICO will terminate early, if an equivalent USD 25 million have been raised. This amount corre-sponds to the projected funding and investment needs for a period of 3 years.

The total supply of tokens is capped to 50,000,000, with the smallest available denomination being 0.0001. The detailed allocation of BLS among the various stakeholders is shown in Table 6. 25% of the tokens will be initially held by Bitlumens in order to provide liquidity to the secondary market.

KYC/AML

All participants in the ICO phase will have to meet KYC standards that are in line with best industry practice in Switzerland. Bitlumens will also perform an AML/CFT risk assessment.

License the Software to a Microlending Entity

Bitlumens software can be licensed to banks (SaaS) in exchange for fees or revenue share. Bitlumens helps the Cooperative Credit Banks originate new sustainable loans, then it syndicates or sells these loans to 3rd party investors where each microcredit has a piece of hardware as collateral. This process allows for the legal creation of the loan and transfer of funds to the borrowers based on an existing banking license. On the payment side, the depository is a collaborating Cooperative Credit Bank and all members who borrow on the platform will be onboarded as a bank member with full AML/KYC and associated accounts.

Before originating a loan, agents will perform the due diligence on each interested villager, including behavioral variables. The platform will evaluate credit metrics and derive a credit score based on the collected information and on the regulatory framework adopted in each country.

Allow Certified Emission Reduction (CER) and Verification

Bitlumens measures emission reductions and allow green project verifiers to certify these reductions

Bitlumens fulfills the requirements based on the clean development mechanism (CDM) under the article 12 in Kyoto’s protocol and earn sealable certified emission reduction (CER) credits. The emis-sion reductions occur when villagers don’t use biomass or kerosene as lighting source. This informa-tion is included in the measurement, verification and reporting (MVR) framework under the Paris Agreement. The methodology for measurement is taken from the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC). Reporting is done through the actions taken to mitigate GHG and on adapt-ability measures that are considered relevant to the achievement of the climate change objectives. In addition, data verification is done through national MRV and through ICA. The idea is to license the platform to governments to visualize the emission reductions in different areas of the country based on sensors, IoT and the blockchain. This will allow clear auditability and the possibility to enter into Carbon Credit markets.

It is well known deforestation is an issue in Central America, for this reason we include sensors that measure PM2.5 and allow the verification that wood and kerosene is displaced as lighting source. In addition, we use satellite imagery to capture the reduction of deforestation in the surroundings of the villages where we operate. We use 4-band (RGB and NIR) imagery for visual or analytic use.

Leasing machines to clients

Women farmers can run the SHS using BLS tokens

Information of all Bitlumens devices such as serial number and location will be stored in the block-chainBitlumens is partnering with a third-party provider for biometric solutions and to run the project in the field. In Guatemala, we are partnering with Amigos de la Aldea and with Brightlight Founda-tion.

Example of a typical transaction: To assess the risk of each household, our agents collect KYC infor-mation from each farmer and feed the risk model with that data. The agents distribute and install the machines at the client’s house. The machines are leased for a period a period of 12 to 24 months. The client makes the lease payments in BLS tokens. If needed, the client can purchase the BLS tokens for the lease payment from the agent. If lease payments are not made when due the machine is locked until the payment is made. If users receive remittances from family members to cover a lease payment, Bitlumens charges a 1% transaction free.

Bitlumens registers the load profile of each machine that is in use. Token holders can monitor these profiles on the blockchain. Thus, they can see the evolution of the project and its environmental and social benefits.

Project timeline

We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month.

Customer defaults rates are expected to vary in each region, but for simplicity reasons our model takes 10% average rate. We choose women as final customers as data shows they are more reliable than men when it comes to payments. However, these cases need to be assessed regularly. Our model quantifies defaults over time. In case of default, the agent working in the field will collect the system back and then sell it second hand.

Our system gives the option to add a digital ID for each user, collecting credit data, creating credit scores and giving access to financial services at a later stage.

When it comes to the collection of IDs we plan to partner with companies who are already working with blockchain infrastructures. In India, for instance, the Aadhaar system is now accessible to more than 1.1 billion people. Users can open accounts by presenting the Aadhaar numbers. We plan to deploy a similar scheme in Latin America, where agents collect the fingerprints of our users and save

these in centralized servers supporting encryption. In addition, agents will upload the KYC, load profile while the system will calculate the credit score based on the user’s credit history. We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month. Microlend-ing institutions are providing technical assistance while working closely with their women’s project. Hence, our goal is to train women and make them part of our team as agents. Their wages will depend on the region and are based on commissions. During the third trimester, we expect to have a regional manager to support us on scaling the project in the country.

The following table shows the breakdown of how we expect to invest the funds over a period of 3 years:

We started the development of an API. Our web api will communicate with oraclize. Communica-tions between Pay as you go systems front-end dashboard, loggers, and mobile app and Bitlumens back-end’s HTTPS server are via RestAPI/JSON. Bitlumens back-end system uses a PostgresSQL data-base to store the actual data points and IDs. It runs a full ethereum node, and is used for data retrieval and analysis. In addition, we will use Solc compiler, IBM Hyperledger, Ethereum, Java, HTML, IPFS, Native iOS/Android, PHP, Node, Golang and Haskell.

The role of the blockchain within Bitlumens operation is to record each user’s KYC information and the already predefined smart contract to preserve verifiable records of the contract’s conditions during each installment. In addition, we plan to move into microgrids once we had collected data on how much users pay per month, their load profile or electricity consumption and what is the power generation from each device. We aim to reduce the costs of utility companies who cant build hun-dreds of kilometers of power line to transmit and distribute energy. Decentralized energy systems give the option to rural communities to get electrified while reducing their carbon footprint.

On Bitlumens, the only state update that can be settled on the blockchain is that of a transfer of tokens. The platform allows for fiat payments in exchange of tokens. The storage and verification of data are placed on a private chain where only investors can access. However, women are the sole owners of their data and Bitlumens can only access it to optimize our processes. Bitlumens can’t sell the data owned by farmers.

We expect to have the smart meter ready in the second trimester as we plan to create a peer to peer

network para sa power exchange nang walang pangangailangan ng pagkakaroon ng isang power grid. Ang matalinong metro ay ipagbibigay-alam sa gumagamit kung magkano ang power ay na-produce, natupok at naka-imbak sa baterya na maaaring traded sa exchange para sa mga token. Bilang karagdagan, sa panahon ng ikalawang tatlong buwan ng 2018 sensors ay idaragdag sa solar home system upang pahintulutan ang pagpapalabas ng carbon mitigation.Gumagana ang Bitlumens sa isang solar manufacturer (Greenlight) na naipadala ang 100 yunit togeth-er na may bayad habang nagpapatakbo ka ng system sa loob ng dalawang linggo. Ang mga makina na ito ay nasa Guatema-la. Bilang karagdagan, ang Bitlumens ay nagsimula na ng isang pilot na proyekto sa Guatemala.

Roadmap

Sa kasalukuyan, sinusundan ng mga Bitlumens ang mga milestones na ito sa Latin America:

1. Ang pag-deploy ng 100 off grid solar device sa pagtatapos ng Abril 2018 sa Guatemala. Sinasanay na namin ang mga ahente na ang mga distributor ng off grid solar device.

2.Pagdaragdag ng software upang patakbuhin ang hardware gamit ang mga token ng BLS sa katapusan ng Mayo.

3. Ang pag-deploy ng IoT upang subaybayan ang carbon at black carbon mitigation

4. Matapos ang Hunyo, magdaragdag kami ng mga solar pump sa mga lokasyon ng pagpapatakbo.

Token Specification at ICO rulesAng aming token ay isang ERC20 utility na token, at naglalayong magbigay ng pagbabago sa panlipunan at pangkapaligiran, kung saan ang lahat ng mga nalikom ay susuportahan ang pag-unlad ng software at MVP na kasalukuyang inilalagay sa Guatemala. Ang token ng Bitlumens ay makikita rin bilang token ng katapatan na nagpapahintulot sa mga mamumuhunan na ipakita ang kanilang kaugnayan at suporta ng proyekto. Hindi ito kumakatawan sa katarungan.

Ang mga token ng utility ay ibinahagi sa isang presale (pre ICO) na nagsisimula sa Abril 26 at tumatagal hanggang Abril 30 sa CET hatinggabi. Ang isang maximum na 10 milyong mga token ng BLS ay inaalok sa panahon ng 72 oras pre ICO sa isang presyo ng 2 BLS / USD. Ang mga pagbabayad lamang sa ETH at fi sa mga pera ay tinatanggap. Ang Bitlumens ay tumutulong sa mga partido na mas gusto na lumahok sa pre ICO sa pera. Kung ang lahat ng 10 milyong BLS ay naibenta sa pre ICO, ang USD 2.5 milyon ay itataas. Ang mga token na hindi inilalaan sa pre ICO ay idaragdag sa pool ng ICO.

The duration of the ICO is 28 days. It starts on May 1 at midnight CET and is divided into 4 periods (see Table 4). On the first day of the ICO BLS tokens are offered at a price of 1.5 BLS /USD. Between the 2nd and the 7th day, the price is 1.4 BLS/USD and between the 8th and the 14th day the price increases to 1.3 BLS /USD.

In India, for instance, the Aadhaar system is now accessible to more than 1.1 billion people. Users can open accounts by presenting the Aadhaar numbers. We plan to deploy a similar scheme in Latin America, where agents collect the fingerprints of our users and save

these in centralized servers supporting encryption. In addition, agents will upload the KYC, load profile while the system will calculate the credit score based on the user’s credit history. We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month. Microlend-ing institutions are providing technical assistance while working closely with their women’s project. Hence, our goal is to train women and make them part of our team as agents. Their wages will depend on the region and are based on commissions. During the third trimester, we expect to have a regional manager to support us on scaling the project in the country.

The following table shows the breakdown of how we expect to invest the funds over a period of 3 years:

We started the development of an API. Our web api will communicate with oraclize. Communica-tions between Pay as you go systems front-end dashboard, loggers, and mobile app and Bitlumens back-end’s HTTPS server are via RestAPI/JSON. Bitlumens back-end system uses a PostgresSQL data-base to store the actual data points and IDs. It runs a full ethereum node, and is used for data retrieval and analysis. In addition, we will use Solc compiler, IBM Hyperledger, Ethereum, Java, HTML, IPFS, Native iOS/Android, PHP, Node, Golang and Haskell.

The role of the blockchain within Bitlumens operation is to record each user’s KYC information and the already predefined smart contract to preserve verifiable records of the contract’s conditions during each installment. In addition, we plan to move into microgrids once we had collected data on how much users pay per month, their load profile or electricity consumption and what is the power generation from each device. We aim to reduce the costs of utility companies who cant build hun-dreds of kilometers of power line to transmit and distribute energy. Decentralized energy systems give the option to rural communities to get electrified while reducing their carbon footprint.

On Bitlumens, the only state update that can be settled on the blockchain is that of a transfer of tokens. The platform allows for fiat payments in exchange of tokens. The storage and verification of data are placed on a private chain where only investors can access. However, women are the sole owners of their data and Bitlumens can only access it to optimize our processes. Bitlumens can’t sell the data owned by farmers.

We expect to have the smart meter ready in the second trimester as we plan to create a peer to peer

network for power exchange without the need of having a power grid. The smart meter will inform the user how much power has been produced, consumed and stored into the battery which can be traded in exchange for tokens. In addition, during the second trimester of 2018 sensors will be added to the solar home system to allow verification of carbon mitigation.

Bitlumens will be working with a solar manufacturer (Greenlight) who had shipped 100 units togeth-er with the pay as you go system within a two-week period. These machines are already in Guatema-la. In addition, Bitlumens had already started a pilot project in Guatemala.

Roadmap

Currently, Bitlumens follows these milestones in Latin America:

1. The deployment of 100 off grid solar devices by the end of April 2018 in Guatemala. We are already training the agents who are the distributors of the off grid solar devices.2. Adding the software to run the hardware using BLS tokens by the end of May.3. The deployment of IoT to track carbon and black carbon mitigation.4. After June we will be adding solar pumps into operational locations.

Token Specification and ICO rules

Our token is an ERC20 utility token, and aims to provide social and environmental transformation, where all proceeds will support the development of the software and MVPs currently placed in Guatemala. Bitlumens token can also be seen as a loyalty token allowing investors to show their a�liation with and support of the project. It does not represent equity.

The utility tokens are initially distributed in a presale (pre ICO) which starts on April 26 and lasts until April 30 at midnight CET. A maximum of 10 million BLS tokens are offered during the 72 hour pre ICO at a price of 2 BLS /USD. Only payments in ETH and fiat currencies are accepted. Bitlumens assists parties preferring to participate in the pre ICO in fiat currency. If all 10 million BLS were sold in the pre ICO, USD 2.5 million would be raised. Tokens that were not allocated in the pre ICO will be added to the ICO pool.

Ang tagal ng ICO ay 28 araw. Nagsisimula ito sa Mayo 1 sa CET hatinggabi at nahahati sa 4 na panahon (tingnan ang Table 4). Sa unang araw ng mga token ng ICO BLS ay ibinibigay sa isang presyo na 1.5 BLS / USD. Sa pagitan ng ika-2 at ika-7 araw, ang presyo ay 1.4 BLS / USD at sa pagitan ng ika-8 at ika-14 na araw ay nagdaragdag ang presyo sa 1.3 BLS / USD. Sa wakas, sa loob ng huling 14 na araw ng ICO ang presyo ay 1.2 BLS / USD.

Ang ICO ay wawakasan nang maaga, kung ang isang katumbas na USD 25 milyon ay itinaas. Ang halagang ito ay nag-uugnay sa inaasahang pangangailangan sa pagpopondo at pamumuhunan sa loob ng 3 taon.

Ang kabuuang supply ng mga token ay nilimitahan sa 50,000,000, na may pinakamaliit na magagamit na denominasyon na 0.0001. Ang detalyadong paglalaan ng BLS kabilang sa iba't ibang mga stakeholder ay ipinapakita sa Table 6. 25% ng mga token ang unang gaganapin ng Bitlumens upang makapagbigay ng pagkatubig sa secondary market.

KYC/AMLAng lahat ng kalahok sa ICO phase ay magkakaroon upang matugunan ang mga pamantayan ng KYC na naaayon sa pinakamahusay na praktika ng industriya sa Switzerland. Gagawa rin ng Bitlumens ang pagtatasa ng panganib ng AML / CFT.

License the Software to a Microlending Entity

Bitlumens software can be licensed to banks (SaaS) in exchange for fees or revenue share. Bitlumens helps the Cooperative Credit Banks originate new sustainable loans, then it syndicates or sells these loans to 3rd party investors where each microcredit has a piece of hardware as collateral. This process allows for the legal creation of the loan and transfer of funds to the borrowers based on an existing banking license. On the payment side, the depository is a collaborating Cooperative Credit Bank and all members who borrow on the platform will be onboarded as a bank member with full AML/KYC and associated accounts.

Before originating a loan, agents will perform the due diligence on each interested villager, including behavioral variables. The platform will evaluate credit metrics and derive a credit score based on the collected information and on the regulatory framework adopted in each country.

Allow Certified Emission Reduction (CER) and Verification

Bitlumens measures emission reductions and allow green project verifiers to certify these reductions

Bitlumens fulfills the requirements based on the clean development mechanism (CDM) under the article 12 in Kyoto’s protocol and earn sealable certified emission reduction (CER) credits. The emis-sion reductions occur when villagers don’t use biomass or kerosene as lighting source. This informa-tion is included in the measurement, verification and reporting (MVR) framework under the Paris Agreement. The methodology for measurement is taken from the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC). Reporting is done through the actions taken to mitigate GHG and on adapt-ability measures that are considered relevant to the achievement of the climate change objectives. In addition, data verification is done through national MRV and through ICA. The idea is to license the platform to governments to visualize the emission reductions in different areas of the country based on sensors, IoT and the blockchain. This will allow clear auditability and the possibility to enter into Carbon Credit markets.

It is well known deforestation is an issue in Central America, for this reason we include sensors that measure PM2.5 and allow the verification that wood and kerosene is displaced as lighting source. In addition, we use satellite imagery to capture the reduction of deforestation in the surroundings of the villages where we operate. We use 4-band (RGB and NIR) imagery for visual or analytic use.

Leasing machines to clients

Women farmers can run the SHS using BLS tokens

Information of all Bitlumens devices such as serial number and location will be stored in the block-chainBitlumens is partnering with a third-party provider for biometric solutions and to run the project in the field. In Guatemala, we are partnering with Amigos de la Aldea and with Brightlight Founda-tion.

Example of a typical transaction: To assess the risk of each household, our agents collect KYC infor-mation from each farmer and feed the risk model with that data. The agents distribute and install the machines at the client’s house. The machines are leased for a period a period of 12 to 24 months. The client makes the lease payments in BLS tokens. If needed, the client can purchase the BLS tokens for the lease payment from the agent. If lease payments are not made when due the machine is locked until the payment is made. If users receive remittances from family members to cover a lease payment, Bitlumens charges a 1% transaction free.

Bitlumens registers the load profile of each machine that is in use. Token holders can monitor these profiles on the blockchain. Thus, they can see the evolution of the project and its environmental and social benefits.

Project timeline

We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month.

Customer defaults rates are expected to vary in each region, but for simplicity reasons our model takes 10% average rate. We choose women as final customers as data shows they are more reliable than men when it comes to payments. However, these cases need to be assessed regularly. Our model quantifies defaults over time. In case of default, the agent working in the field will collect the system back and then sell it second hand.

Our system gives the option to add a digital ID for each user, collecting credit data, creating credit scores and giving access to financial services at a later stage.

When it comes to the collection of IDs we plan to partner with companies who are already working with blockchain infrastructures. In India, for instance, the Aadhaar system is now accessible to more than 1.1 billion people. Users can open accounts by presenting the Aadhaar numbers.

Finally, during the last 14 days of the ICO the price is 1.2 BLS/USD.

The ICO will terminate early, if an equivalent USD 25 million have been raised. This amount corre-sponds to the projected funding and investment needs for a period of 3 years.

The total supply of tokens is capped to 50,000,000, with the smallest available denomination being 0.0001. The detailed allocation of BLS among the various stakeholders is shown in Table 6. 25% of the tokens will be initially held by Bitlumens in order to provide liquidity to the secondary market.

KYC/AML

All participants in the ICO phase will have to meet KYC standards that are in line with best industry practice in Switzerland. Bitlumens will also perform an AML/CFT risk assessment.

We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month.

Customer defaults rates are expected to vary in each region, but for simplicity reasons our model takes 10% average rate. We choose women as final customers as data shows they are more reliable than men when it comes to payments. However, these cases need to be assessed regularly. Our model quantifies defaults over time. In case of default, the agent working in the field will collect the system back and then sell it second hand.

Our system gives the option to add a digital ID for each user, collecting credit data, creating credit scores and giving access to financial services at a later stage.

When it comes to the collection of IDs we plan to partner with companies who are already working with blockchain infrastructures. In India, for instance, the Aadhaar system is now accessible to more than 1.1 billion people. Users can open accounts by presenting the Aadhaar numbers. We plan to deploy a similar scheme in Latin America, where agents collect the fingerprints of our users and save

these in centralized servers supporting encryption. In addition, agents will upload the KYC, load profile while the system will calculate the credit score based on the user’s credit history. We expect to have one project manager per 100 users, installing between 60-100 systems each month. Microlend-ing institutions are providing technical assistance while working closely with their women’s project. Hence, our goal is to train women and make them part of our team as agents. Their wages will depend on the region and are based on commissions. During the third trimester, we expect to have a regional manager to support us on scaling the project in the country.

The following table shows the breakdown of how we expect to invest the funds over a period of 3 years:

We started the development of an API. Our web api will communicate with oraclize. Communica-tions between Pay as you go systems front-end dashboard, loggers, and mobile app and Bitlumens back-end’s HTTPS server are via RestAPI/JSON. Bitlumens back-end system uses a PostgresSQL data-base to store the actual data points and IDs. It runs a full ethereum node, and is used for data retrieval and analysis. In addition, we will use Solc compiler, IBM Hyperledger, Ethereum, Java, HTML, IPFS, Native iOS/Android, PHP, Node, Golang and Haskell.

The role of the blockchain within Bitlumens operation is to record each user’s KYC information and the already predefined smart contract to preserve verifiable records of the contract’s conditions during each installment. In addition, we plan to move into microgrids once we had collected data on how much users pay per month, their load profile or electricity consumption and what is the power generation from each device. We aim to reduce the costs of utility companies who cant build hun-dreds of kilometers of power line to transmit and distribute energy. Decentralized energy systems give the option to rural communities to get electrified while reducing their carbon footprint.

On Bitlumens, the only state update that can be settled on the blockchain is that of a transfer of tokens. The platform allows for fiat payments in exchange of tokens. The storage and verification of data are placed on a private chain where only investors can access. However, women are the sole owners of their data and Bitlumens can only access it to optimize our processes. Bitlumens can’t sell the data owned by farmers.

We expect to have the smart meter ready in the second trimester as we plan to create a peer to peer

network for power exchange without the need of having a power grid. The smart meter will inform the user how much power has been produced, consumed and stored into the battery which can be traded in exchange for tokens. In addition, during the second trimester of 2018 sensors will be added to the solar home system to allow verification of carbon mitigation.

Bitlumens will be working with a solar manufacturer (Greenlight) who had shipped 100 units togeth-er with the pay as you go system within a two-week period. These machines are already in Guatema-la. In addition, Bitlumens had already started a pilot project in Guatemala.

Roadmap

Currently, Bitlumens follows these milestones in Latin America:

1. The deployment of 100 off grid solar devices by the end of April 2018 in Guatemala. We are already training the agents who are the distributors of the off grid solar devices.2. Adding the software to run the hardware using BLS tokens by the end of May.3. The deployment of IoT to track carbon and black carbon mitigation.4. After June we will be adding solar pumps into operational locations.

Token Specification and ICO rules

Our token is an ERC20 utility token, and aims to provide social and environmental transformation, where all proceeds will support the development of the software and MVPs currently placed in Guatemala. Bitlumens token can also be seen as a loyalty token allowing investors to show their a�liation with and support of the project. It does not represent equity.

The utility tokens are initially distributed in a presale (pre ICO) which starts on April 26 and lasts until April 30 at midnight CET. A maximum of 10 million BLS tokens are offered during the 72 hour pre ICO at a price of 2 BLS /USD. Only payments in ETH and fiat currencies are accepted. Bitlumens assists parties preferring to participate in the pre ICO in fiat currency. If all 10 million BLS were sold in the pre ICO, USD 2.5 million would be raised. Tokens that were not allocated in the pre ICO will be added to the ICO pool.

The duration of the ICO is 28 days. It starts on May 1 at midnight CET and is divided into 4 periods (see Table 4). On the first day of the ICO BLS tokens are offered at a price of 1.5 BLS /USD. Between the 2nd and the 7th day, the price is 1.4 BLS/USD and between the 8th and the 14th day the price increases to 1.3 BLS /USD. Finally, during the last 14 days of the ICO the price is 1.2 BLS/USD.

The ICO will terminate early, if an equivalent USD 25 million have been raised. This amount corre-sponds to the projected funding and investment needs for a period of 3 years.

The total supply of tokens is capped to 50,000,000, with the smallest available denomination being 0.0001. The detailed allocation of BLS among the various stakeholders is shown in Table 6. 25% of the tokens will be initially held by Bitlumens in order to provide liquidity to the secondary market.

KYC/AML

All participants in the ICO phase will have to meet KYC standards that are in line with best industry practice in Switzerland. Bitlumens will also perform an AML/CFT risk assessment.
