"On a recent trip to Athens, I saw something that would change the course of my life forever. There, amongst the hustle and bustle of the city, stood the most horrific thing a man could ever lay his eyes upon. The fear penetrated me so deeply that it shook the very foundation of my soul.
In the capital of Greece, there was ... a no smoking sign.
I couldn't believe my eyes. How dare they?! How can some EU bureaucrat have the nerve to tell me where I can and can't smoke in Greece?
I am a Greek man. I have the right to smoke wherever I want within the borders of the Hellenic Republic. This includes, but is not limited to, public spaces, cafes, restaurants, the airport, and any hospital/medical center of my choosing.
What's next? Some asshole in Brussels is going to tell me I have to wear a helmet when riding a motorcycle?
I was so shocked that the cigarette I was smoking fell out of my mouth and hit the concrete floor. I immediately relit another one and, when the carcinogenic poison flowed deeply into my lungs, I knew what had to be done."
-- Chris, Founder and CEO of the Drachma Coin Foundation
Drachma Coin Executive Summary
Drachma Coin is a blockchain based technological currency designed to free the Greek people from European Central Bank tyranny.
By leveraging blockchain technology, Drachma Coin will enable Greek people to engage in transactions seamlessly in a decentralized manner. Using advanced algorithmic technologies, these transactions will take place free from centralized third parties.
Drachma Coin has a limited supply of 18.21 Billion DRC Tokens, meaning it is impervious to devaluation and inflation.
Introduction
Since the 2008 Financial Crisis, The European Central Bank has engaged in a program of quantitative easing that has led to interest rates on the Euro (Or Evro as it's locally known because U is V in Greek) to drop into the negatives.
This is an unprecedented event and the Central Bank presents no solution to the problem. The result of this complete failure of the fiat monetary system has been mass unemployment and crippling taxation with no end in sight.
By constructing a framework for a decentralized transaction system, Drachma Coin aims to solve the financial crisis.
Drachma Coin uses advanced blockchain technologies to create a decentralized network of Greeks that can be connected financially through a decentralized network of finance.
Unlike the Euro (Evro), The Drachma Coin Network is free from interest-based manipulations by inbuilt blockchain algorithms.
By offering an alternative payment system, reliance on the failed fiat system can be removed, and the Greek economy can be released from its fiat shackles.
Drachma Coin Technological Architecture
The entire Drachma Coin ecosystem has been built in partnership with the Ethereum network.
Ethereum was chosen for its robust security, scaling abilities, plasma stuff, a guy on Fiverr makes ERC20 tokens real cheap, sharding, and transaction speeds.
Leveraging the Ethereum network enables Drachma Coin to build a seamless ecosystem of end to end transactions.
The framework of the Drachma Coin blockchain also enables Dapps to use the Drachma's unique “circle technology” to build applications on top of the Drachma blockchain.
This revolutionary “circle technology” opens the door for numerous solutions to real-world problems such as:
- Olive Oil: Olive Oil needs to be bought and sold. This Olive Oil can be bought and sold with Drachma on the Drachma blockchain.
- Feta Cheese: Drachma's circle technology enables the milk to be stirred in a decentralized manner ensuring cheese profits are distributed to cheese farmers.
- Spinach Pie: Some bakers make spinach pie in a circular fashion. Drachma Coin has circle biotechnological abilities.
- Overcharging Tourists: Foreigners will still be using worthless fiat and can be easily tricked into overpaying for things in Drachma ensuring maximum returns for Drachma Coin holders.
