EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The cryptocurrency community created a vibrant ecosystem of services that aim to introduce and increase mass adoption of the cryptocurrencies. The blockchain projects are transforming major industries and at the same time the new platforms are emerging trying to solve the existing problems of other cryptocurrencies and lay a foundation for the future wide use of

blockchain platforms.

While existing cryptocurrencies provide (or will provide soon) great facilities for instantaneous regular (macro) payments, the vast area of micropayments is largely uncovered as it requires a different approach to both technological and social aspects of payments. The ability of devices, individuals and businesses to make payments with the recipient having visibility and use of those funds in near to real time, is an objective that seems likely to become more pressing. One of the key trends in modern online economy is an increased focus globally on speeding up payment processing through faster settlement or payment initiation.

ZeroDayPayments network (ZDP) is solving problems of micropayments delivering an easy-to-use and easy-to-integrate real-time distributed cryptocurrency micropayment network with guaranteed high throughput and predictable low transaction fees for IoT[1] and P2P[2] markets in both B2B [3] and B2C[4] segments.

[1] IoT - The Internet of Things (IoT) is the network of physical devices, vehicles, home appliances and other items embedded with electronics, software, sensors, actuators, and connectivity which enables these objects to vonnect and exchange data.[2] P2P - Peer-to-peer (P2P) computing or networking is a distributed application architecture that partitions tasks or workloads between peers.[3] B2B - Business-to-business refers to a situation where one business makes a commercial transaction with another.[4] B2C - Business to Customer (Business to Consumer) describes the activities of businesses in selling products and/or services.

It is estimated that the global market value of IoT will reach $7.1 trillion by 2020. ZDP aims to support global transaction levels and volumes for IoT market.

Usability and user-friendliness and overall ease of use of ZDP currency from a variety of different user groups and perspectives is out top priority.

We are building a decentralized network of public and private processing nodes and a public and open distributed ledger: https://ledger.zdp.io.

Based on open-source enterprise-grade standards with monitoring and reporting, backup and recovery tools. Commercial support available.

WITH GUARANTEED PERFORMANCE AND LOW TRANSATION

FEES - WE MAKE MICROPAYMENTS A REALITY!

In the modern online economy world micropayments are used in scope of microtransactions strategy for digital content monetising. Therefore in the last few years micropayments (defined as online transactions from fractions of a cent up to $10) have occupied an important place.

The support of the devices with limited storage, minimum memory and processing power (that are common in IoT industry) is one of the top priorities in the design of the ZDP cryptocurrency. This includes the choice of the cryptography algorithms – ECC (elliptic curve cryptography).

This asymmetric encryption and decryption method is shown by the US National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and third-party studies to significantly outperform its biggest competitors, offering significantly shorter keys (comparing to alternatives, such as RSA algorithms), lower central processing unit (CPU) consumption and lower memory usage.

Timeliness has at least two

elements: the timing of the

availability of funds to the

recipient and a confirmation

that the payment has been

authorised and funds will be

received.

This includes the ability to

access the payments system

when and where required

and to be able to make

payments to whomever

required.

Ease of use can reflect

factors such as the number

of steps in the payment

process, the amount of

information that must be

provided, and the process by

which it is provided.

ZDP is the only cryptocurrency that lets you select a

cryptographic algorithm of your preference for your

private/public key generation. This feature allows

integrators to focus on the algorithms best supported

by their software and hardware capabilities:

/233/283/409/571), Teletrust (brainpool), ECGOST

(GOST3410-2001).

Payments are often made as part of a process that requires

some form of information exchange and reconciliation.

Payment systems should be able to integrate efficiently with

these processes. Key examples are the capacity of payment

systems to carry additional information relevant to the

payment and the ability of payment messages to be easily

integrated with accounting and other business systems.

End users of a payment system need to have confidence

that the system will be available when expected and

that payments will reach the intended recipient at the

time promised. They also need to be confident that

the system is secure, so that using it will not expose

them to future losses as a result of information being

fraudulently obtained.

THE IMPORTANCE OF MICROPAYMENTS

FOR MERCHANTS, MICROPAYMENTS ARE OFTEN TOO EXPENSIVE TO OFFER. PROCESSING FEES ASSOCIATED WITH CARD-BASED TRANSACTIONS ARE OFTEN HIGH ENOUGH THAT THEY PARE

DOWN OR ELIMINATE ALMOST ALL POTENTIAL FOR SELLER PROFIT FROM MICROPAYMENT TRANSACTIONS.

INSTANTANEOUS PAYMENT SETTLEMENT

VisaNet handles an average of 150 million transactions every day and is capable of handling up to 50,000 transactions per second (TPS) as of July, 2017.

ZDP cryptocurrency network is designed to match VisaNet’s volume and target the future volumes thus discovering previously unknow ways of content monetisation.

ZDP is designed to scale to millions of requests to

cater for current and future payment needs of B2B (IoT)

and B2C markets.

Performance and low transaction fees are

essential to business use-cases of online enterprises.

Using the latest software hardware for validation network

nodes the performance aspect of the system is guaranteed.
