Ubcoin Digital Exchange is a global peer to peer marketplace that enables users to buy and sell products or services safely. As a platform, it offers an opportunity for people around the world to become crypto-investors by purchasing Ubcoin tokens used to transact in the marketplace.

As a company, Ubcoin arose with the goal of solving the problem of purchasing and selling cryptocurrency.

Token sale registration

At the moment, Ubcoin tokens are issued in different stages that include one pre-sale and five stages of ICO. The pre-sale went live on April 4th 2018 and at the time of writing, Ubcoin was in ICO Stage 4.

To participate in the token sale, you must be prepared to invest over 50 ETH. This is one of the requirements that Ubcoin has set for users to pass their Know Your Customer check.

To register, you will be required to provide your details such as name, email and password. Before account verification, you have to send your identification documents. For instance, your national ID, passport or driving license.

You are also required to provide proof of address and telephone number. Afterwards, send the documents to the following email: [email protected] with the following subject line “KYC for Investment.”

The documents will then be reviewed by compliance officers to ensure they are genuine. If everything checkouts, your account will be verified which means your ETH wallet address will be white listed. As a result, you can now make contributions during the token sale period.

If any issues arise during verification, Ubcoin compliance officers will reach out to you.

Note: Registration started in March 2018 and you can also register for an account just before the token sale is over.

ii. Cryptocurrencies are volatile. As a result, their market prices are usually not that stable. To avoid buyers feeling like they are overpaying and sellers feeling like they are being shortchanged, Ubcoin tokens are used. This is because it has built-in mechanisms of reserve pool.

iii. The use of Ubcoin tokens in the marketplace ensures compatibility and uniformity unlike the use of different cryptocoins to trade.
