Our goal is to make it easy for economic energy to flow into $HEX and #PulseChain across the world 🌎
But let me explain the process. Image
We are not a money transmitter, as we sit outside the flow of funds at all times (see below).
There is of course a money transmitter, and that is our banking partner, and they have MTLs that allow them to accept customers across the globe (and almost all states in the US - a little tricky with NY, SD and HI)
We work together with them to ensure our product/platform (which acts largely like a dApp linking them to you) is compliant with regulatory legislation and case law in each country/state. This protects us all. Users in particular.
When we "add a new country", our legal team researches the current regulations/law in that country (this can be of variable clarity and sometimes requires translation into english)
Our product is innovative, which means we need to explain it to (and educate) the various international regulatory bodies. And this is formalised via a legal opinion letter, outlining our product in the context of their laws specifically. We then wait for a response from them
Technically we don't need to do this to offer our service in a new country. But by doing so, we are setting a high standard of communication and protecting both our user base and our banking partner. It means you can be confident when your country comes online, it stays!
As you can imagine, all this takes money and time, and the traditional system doesn't move at the speed of #DeFi. So if you're country isn't currently approved, it doesn't mean we don't value you and plan to bring our product to your nation. We want to win with everyone ✌️ 🌎

🚨FIAT ONRAMP UPDATE🚨
The platform fees will NOT apply when moving capital from on-chain back to your digital account. So you can de-risk/off-ramp with essentially zero fee.
If you convert assets within your digital account (as we add assets able to be stored here) there will be a 0.1% trading fee.
Platform fees will only occur when moving economic energy from your digital account to your personal bank account.
The fee structure is 1-4%
There is a staking feature that currently allows you to lock $HEX trustlessly, and reduce your fees to 1% based on about locked.

A Note on KYC:
Financial institutions need to comply with KYC rules/regulations in order to operate. We believe in a future where traditional banking isn't required and #DeFi increases its reach. The reality is that we aren't in that position yet.
When using our FIAT ONRAMP that can support large amounts of economic energy, you are creating a digital account with our banking partner, so you need to perform KYC. We just make it really easy.

(If you want to onramp $100 with no KYC, there are other products out there)
We interviewed and performed due diligence on multiple KYC providers, but ultimately our banking partner (like many many other institutions) uses Socure. They also allows us to easily onboard new countries/markets to the $HEX and #PulseChain community.

This is a thread of FAQs and info on the $WAIT free claim process. With #PulseChain getting close and our FIAT ONRAMP closer, we need to focus, so we will no longer be doing individual support for the free claimers. Be careful of DMs, it won't be us. Image
Use !commands in our TG t.me/Coast0x there is plenty of information. And the entire $HEX community is very DeFi aware - use the knowledge of those around you.
Many ask us about gas fees to claim. There are 3 transactions that require gas in the $WAIT free claim. We don't control the cost of gas/computation on #Ethereum but remember that high fees are the reason for #PulseChain. List of steps below:
