AIAScoin: Fast, Secure, Anonymous, Low cost Payment Processor for E-commerce
Today, innovation in cryptocurrency seeks to improve on some of the inherent infrastructural and technical limitations to using Bitcoin and a number of other cryptocurrencies for micro-payments. Metrics for blockchain performance are throughput, security and decentralization. Ease of use and fungibility are other important issues that also need to be considered. It is difficult to achieve all of the above depending on utility, and usually platforms have to make compromises. AIAScoin builds on Bitcoin core technology to create a robust solution for cryptocurrency payments and e-commerce.
What is AIAScoin?
AIAScoin is a PIVX fork whose goal is to drive business value by making it easier for merchants to integrate cryptocurrency payments in their business model. Merchants can easily install and register the AIAscoin plugin bar little technical knowledge enabling them to accept and issue AIAScoin as payment to other businesses. Unlike other masternode coins which require heavy hardware investment, the platform is installed on internet e-commerce apps removing barriers to entry for merchants who want to use a fast, low cost, private and secure payment platform. To protect identity of businesses who use the platform names and sensitive information are withheld when the transactions are added to the blockchain ensuring pseudonimity for both buyers and businesses.
In terms of technology, AIAScoin technology relies on POS 3.0 technology which improves security and efficiency and masternodes. Masternode private transactions eliminate the possibility of tracing the transaction history of a particular coin, thereby providing fungibility. Additionally, swiftX transactions(these are faster than ordinary transactions and are particularly useful when speed is important) can be quickly processed. Compatibility with the Zerocoin system will enable users to convert their AIAS coins into anonymous zCoins, and spend them as normal coins with the added advantage of no history. The fact that AIAScoin can be traced back to Bitcoin core, means it has some of the features of Bitcoin Core.
AIAScoin is an open source project with the community playing a very important role in the future development.

Masternodes
Some of the functions of a masternode in the AIAScoin network are creating private transactions(PrivateSend), instant transactions(InstantSend) and organizing voting systems
Requirements of running a masternode are: a dedicated IP address, minimum 1000 AIAScoin and VPS with Linux
Masternodes are entitled to 75% of the block reward
According to the AIAScoin mainnet explorer, the network has 236 masternodes currently. In total, 250 masternodes are available for sale. It is important to note however that because masternode owners can create other masternodes from the rewards they earn, the number 236 does not necessarily translate to the amount of money raised through the sale of masternodes. More masternodes are important for a stable chain. There is a possibility for more to be created later, after the purchase of AIAS coins from exchanges.
Seesaw Reward Balance System
Block rewards are calculated by the Seesaw Reward Balance System
10% of block rewards are dedicated to coin burns and development fees
The remaining 90% is automatically calculated ratio between masternodes and stakers and determines who gets rewarded
