TOQQN (A Blockchain Based Social Platform With Your Interests at Heart)
WHAT IS TOQQN
Toqqn is a small step towards a big mission to give users a privacy focused and ad-free social experience. As well, users are rewarded with crypto every day, through a new activity-based ecosystem. What’s unique about Toqqn is that doesn’t store any user data, it doesn’t track you, nor does it follow you everywhere with ads.
Why Toqqn?
When every single major social platform misuses user data for evil purposes, the relevance of a platform that doesn’t store user data increases day by day. At the same time, we want to reach the masses with crypto, because we feel it is
the payment system of the future. So instead of exploiting users who contribute to our social platform, we reward them with crypto. This gives anyone, from anywhere, the ability to participate in the crypto economy without any financial barrier to entry.
Technology
Built using the best of both conventional and web 3.0 technologies, Toqqn will be highly user friendly; at the same time blockchain technology is adopted to decentralize user data. That way no user data will be stored on our platform or servers to prevent any kind of misuse or exploitation of people’s private data.
Toqqn Platform Development
Toqqn is in development using the best of both conventional and web 3.0 technologies. Conventional systems are used to make Toqqn a user friendly platform. At the same time blockchain technology will be adopted to decentralize user data. We want to build a social media where no user data will be stored on our platform or servers. This is to prevent any kind of misuse or exploitation of people’s private data.
Timeframe
Fundraising for the project’s development starts in the first week of November 2018. Platform development is already in full-swing. We aim to launch the first version of our marketplace by Q2 next year and a have fully functional beta by Q4 of 2019.
Introduction
According to Statistica , an online statistics clearinghouse, the total number of 1 social media users is projected to be approximately 2.77 billion people by 2019, a steady increase since 2010.

Because of the popularity of social media platforms they are highly attractive to advertisers. This is due to the enormous amount of available user data that enables their advertising targeting to be so effective. The result is users are constantly bombarded with ads, both on-and-off social platforms. They are subject to behavioral and demographic advertising and remarketing campaigns that hound them across the internet.
One reason user data is so readily available is because developers have given too much leeway in integrating social platforms their apps in the past. This allowed them almost carte-blanche access not only to user information, but also to the data of user’s contacts, with far-reaching implications.
OUR VISION:
Billions of people across the world don't own any crypto coins or know how or where to get it. Toqqn is out to change that. That's why we're going to use this platform to put crypto in the hands of our members.
CRYPTO FOR PEOPLE
We want to help bridge the gap between 'crypto-haves-and-have-nots'. Members receive crypto for their activities on the platform, every day.
PRIVACY BY DEFAULT
Your personal data stays private. We don't store any user data in our servers or any servers. We use blockchain technology to decentralise user data.
GOODBYE TO ADS & TRACKERS
Toqqn is a 100% ad free platform. You will never be interrupted by any ads, or be retargeted by advertisers after visiting our platform.
RESPONSIVE & COMPATIBLE
Toqqn is designed to be cross platform compatible and mobile-friendly. It renders perfectly across various browsers, on your phone, tablet or desktop.
LEARNING SUPPORT
Unfamiliar with crypto? No worries. We'll help members through the entire process of exchanging, acquiring, sending, and withdrawing their toqqns.
DECENTRALIZED FUTURE
As the blockchain technology evolves, we'll move to a more decentralized infrastructure, using blockchain to secure user communication & messages.
Mission
Our mission is to create a private and secure experience for social media users - decentralizing user data. Because of current limitations in technology, Toqqn will be built with the best of conventional and blockchain technology. This ensures user’s privacy is respected, while helping to bring the adoption of crypto to the masses. Running the platform entirely on the blockchain at this time isn’t feasible. In the near future, we will be doing our best to transform the platform entirely to a DAPP or decentralize maximum critical data, after a stable build is achieved. A machine learning algorithm will work on users’ crypto rewarding system (an activity-based ecosystem).
In addition, plans are in place to create a services marketplace where our users can provide digital services to earn additional toqqns. This will provide true utility to our crypto token, as well as help with the general adoption of cryptocurrency as a cross-border payment method that eliminates unnecessary third parties. Fees from this marketplace will also fund the platform.
Privacy by Default
Because TOQQN is designed as a decentralized platform, user privacy is ensured by default. No user data will be stored on our servers; therefore, user data cannot be used in any ad campaigns or any other data exploitation. As well, there is zero risk of user data becoming hacked for this same reason.
An Ad-Free Social Experience
TOQQN platform users will enjoy a 100% ad free experience supported by sales of our crypto (TQN). Additional revenue to support the platform will come from user fees for our marketplace.
Crypto to the People
As part of our mission to bring crypto to the masses, users of the TOQQN platform will receive rewards points which can be exchanged for our crypto tokens. This means anyone, regardless of financial standing can own crypto by sharing content on our platform.
As well, platform users can earn additional tokens by providing digital services in our Marketplace. We are providing the Marketplace to aid in the further adoption of crypto as a payment method.
Project Phases
Phase I
A digital marketplace of the platform is created using conventional web development technologies. Users will be able to buy and sell freelance services using TQN as a payment service. The team will be working to list toqqn on the maximum number of exchanges. This will enable platform users to trade their toqqns for other tokens or fiat.
Businesses seeking digital services can purchase toqqn crypto to pay for these services. The Marketplace will enable these businesses to obtain needed services without the complexities of dealing with financial institutions and cross-border currency conversions.
The Marketplace will create a real world purpose to toqqn as a cryptocurrency. Adding the marketplace provides toqqn with a true utility value as a mode of payment for services.
Phase II
Development to decentralise user data begins. Also additional platform features such as private communication added. All user data to be stored in the blockchain so only users will have access to their personal data.
Phase III
To decentralise user communication and the development of a Digital Services Marketplace using toqqn as a payment method.
Toqqn Cryptocurrency (TQN)
Our crypto token (toqqn) will be an ERC20 compliant token (a subset of Ethereum.) ERC20 allows for seamless integration with other decentralized application on the Ethereum blockchain, as well as Smart Contract integration. A strict limit of 1 billion TQN will be created and this is never to be increased. The listing and exchange submission process will be started as soon as the fundraising is finished.
Allocation:
- Total supply: 1 billion toqqns (never to be increased)
- 10% to acquire funding - unsold toqqns to be added to platform reserve.
- 50% to distribute to the users of toqqn platform.
- 20% reserved for the team
- 10% for Marketing, Bounties & Advisors
- 10% platform’s future development reserve.
Fundraising
The Toqqn project is unusual in a way that we only aim to collect the funds that’s necessary for the platform development. We don’t aim to collect funds in millions and hence only 10% of the total supply will be offered for the investors.
We are aiming to raise only to cover the actual costs of building the project. For us, the primary purpose of Toqqn is to benefit our user base by decentralizing their data, and to further the adoption of crypto as a payment system. A total of 100 million toqqn (TQN) will be offered during the fundraising period, with a goal to raise at least $100,000. Investors will be able to contribute to the projet from 1st week of November. Investors and supporters can secure TQN with BTC,
ETH, PayPal & Payoneer.
Toqqn Price
Toqqn’s initial value during the fundraising is set at $.001. Price will increase per week from $0.002 to $0.005. Investors will receive toqqns within the 1st week after the fundraising finishes. Later on TQN can be used as a utility, a payment method to buy, sell services in the marketplace which comes in Phase 3 of the project.
