Introduction

In an exponentially progressing world, traditional methods have become extremely inefficient to get things done, whether it’s over-formality, long processing time, high fees or tiring verification process, such disadvantages in today’s fast growing world -particularly in money transfer field- make methods such as: WIRE transfers, ACH transfers, traditional P2P money transfer services, MTO’s or international money transfer services, extremely outdated; hence, PexCash app was created. A decentralized, serverless, secure and instant cash money transfer app that is capable of handling money transactions domestically and internationally, with the lowest possible fees. By utilizing blockchain technology and GPS map location, we’ve created a brand new innovation that will revolutionize the P2P money transfer industry. PexCash totally depends on physical meetings between trading parties/persons, the app is mainly created to provide cash-in-hand transfer/exchange solution.

Market P2P money transfers are mainly comprised of: online cross-border payments and remittance sending, money transfers processed by online-pure players (e.g. TransferWise), domestic Peer-to-Peer payments and bill splitting services and cross-border payments via traditional service providers (banks, post offices & Western Union, MoneyGram). Transaction Value in the "P2P Money Transfers" segment amounts to US$65,761m in 2018, according to Statista, with a majority of these transactions running through banks and money transfer operators (MTOs). MTO’s are facilitators of international payment transactions. The IMF provides a clear definition of what these entities are: “Money transfer operators (MTOs) are financial companies (but usually not banks) engaged in cross border transfer of funds using either their internal system or access to another cross-border banking network.” The complexities of different currencies and banking systems means that sending money from one country to another is completely different from a domestic transfer. Transaction Value is expected to show an annual growth rate (CAGR 2018-2022) of 19.4% resulting in the total amount of US$133,795m in 2022. In the "P2P Money Transfers" segment, the number of users is expected to amount to 188.0m by 2022. The average transaction value per user in the "P2P Money Transfers" segment amounts to US$362.2 in 2018. From a global comparison perspective it is shown that the highest transaction value is reached in the United States (US$15,138m in 2018). Largest country markets for sending money: USA, Saudi Arabia, Switzerland, Germany and China Largest country markets for receiving money: India, China, Philippines, Mexico and France

Problem

Traditional and mobile app P2P money transfer services haven’t undergone any significant upgrading process recently to cope with today’s emerging market and new technologies. P2P money transfer services require a lot of verification information, papers to be signed, long waiting lists, long processing time and extremely high fees in comparison to blockchain-based transaction fees, moreover, it’s not easily accessible to everyone, in some places, people will have to travel 1-3 hours to receive or send their cash money, there have been too many solutions that virtualizes money yet in most countries people depend on cash money in the first place and there are very few solutions, that really work, when it comes to cash-in-hand transfer systems. Cryptocurrency-to-cash exchange sometimes -and in some places- is very difficult to manage, using online escrow service has a high risk of scam and money loss, using a third party service requires a lot of verification documents and eventually charge relatively high fees for processing your exchange requests.

Solution PexCash has developed a P2P money transfer and crypto exchange app that uses GPS map location to connect users and help exchange crypto-cash instantly. Users can send/receive cash anywhere, worldwide, through a blockchain-based, decentralized and serverless app that guarantees a middleman-less transaction between both parties. PexCash applies extremely high security measures where all transactions are held within it’s network and are instant, moreover, it guarantees a transparent environment through public transaction trackers. PexCash app nature

requires physical meeting between parties eliminating any unpleasant trading/exchange behavior.

How It Works PexCash app model is comprised of 2 main transaction types:

1. 2-node transactions 2. 4-node transactions

1. 2-Node Transactions: This type of transaction represents any money transfer between 2 parties to exchange cryptocurrency-to-cash or the opposite. Users interested in exchanging or selling their cryptocurrencies to cash will have to list their selling offers and mark them as live in order to receive exchange requests from other users. 2. 4-Node Transactions: This type of transaction represents long distance or cross-border money transfers, it requires 4 parties to run a successful 4-node transaction: cash sender, cash receiver and 2 PEXC token holders.

Page 7: PexCash Whitepaper (PEXC) - Fx empire · 2018-07-11 · and bill splitting services and cross-border payments via traditional service providers (banks, post offices & Western Union,

Based on user’s GPS map location, PexCash will connect users willing to transfer or exchange as per their transaction attributes: amount, location and mile/km range. A.Listing offers:

- User can add their accepted crypto-to-cash offers - Set fee percentage - Set minimum trade amount - Set maximum trade amount - Add cryptocurrency address (where they will receive their funds) - Mark offer as live so that other PexCash users can find it on the map

B.Exchange: ( 2-Node Transaction between User and Exchange Acc)

- User willing to sell/buy crypto-to-cash shall initiate an exchange request

- PexCash connects user with an available nearby exchange acc that fits their criteria

- User contacts exchange acc through in-app chat or voice call - User and exchange acc set an agreement on an in-between meeting

location - User transfers cryptocurrency to exchange acc in-app wallet address

and mark payment as paid - Exchange acc receives a notification of receiving their cryptocurrency

and its amount - Exchange acc releases cash to user - User ends the trade by clicking “ Cash Received” - Exchange -on hold- cryptocurrencies are released to the exchange

user and allows them to perform an external withdraw request C.Transfer: (4-Node Transaction between Sender, Receiver & 2 Exchange Accs )

- Sender initiates a transfer request with amount and receiver ID - Receiver approves request and mark themselves as ready to receive

Page 8: PexCash Whitepaper (PEXC) - Fx empire · 2018-07-11 · and bill splitting services and cross-border payments via traditional service providers (banks, post offices & Western Union,

- PexCash connects both sender and receiver to nearby exchange users (X1 and X2)

- Sender meets their nearby exchange (X1) and pay them in cash - Exchange (X1) sends the amount to Exchange (X2) in PEXC token - Exchange (X2) releases cash payment to receiver - Receiver confirms cash pick up - Fees are distributed between X1, X2 and PexCash

For security purposes, users will have to approve the app to use their device microphone to record during both transaction types so that in case of disputes, a moderator will refer back to the recorded audio to decide for/against included parties, users are also forced to contact via in-app chat or voice call, any shared contact info will result in an account ban. App includes:

1. User rating and review system 2. Verified/unverified user badges 3. Dispute system 4. Cancel order functionality, a fee is charged from the account that

cancels for orders cancelled after a certain period of time To offer money transfer service, user will be required to:

1. Verify their account 2. Have minimum PEXC balance equivalent to the maximum amount

they are willing to transfer To offer exchange services, user will be required to :

1. Verify their account 2. Have minimum PEXC balance equivalent to the maximum amount

they are willing to exchange

Investor Benefits

Risk disclosure We may be subject to common risk disclosure for start-ups and crownfundings as we use some of the funds raised from sold tokens in the project's development: Risk of default– failure of the investment project or business, typically start-ups in the case of equity crowd-funding, or default in repayment of loans under P2P lending which are commonly unsecured, which may lead to a total loss for investors. Risk of platform failure/ insolvency– a crowd-funding platform may temporarily or permanently shut down, may be hacked, and could become insolvent. This may lead to a total loss of investment, in addition to loss of information. Cyber security– crowd-funding is vulnerable to the risk of cyber-attacks in view of the online nature of crowd-funding. Such cyber-attacks may come in varied forms, such as overloading a platform’s infrastructure, confusing accounts and/or identity theft.
