What is GRAFT?

GRAFT aims to take cryptocurrency mainstream by providing a Merchant and Point-of-Sale friendly payment network powered by GRAFT coin - a combination proof-of-work and proof-of-stake, Supernode blockchain implementation.

Merchants can use their existing PoS terminals to connect to the GRAFT. The infrastructure is already there, so accepting cryptocurrencies will be a seamless transition for merchants wanting to accept cryptocurrencies.

GRAFT will bring mass adoption to cryptocurrencies by bringing merchants an easy way to interact with crypto customers.

The Team

The team behind the project has been consistently rated as a “star team”, with founders coming from HP, Intel, Cisco - serial builders and entrepreneurs, with professionally acclaimed published works in the fields of Point-of-Sale, Security, and Cryptocurrency.

The team acts as the backbone of any company. With a strong team and years of industry experience, they are perfectly positioned to make GRAFT a successful venture.

When and What

The project is geared to go live at the end of January, with open source beta available now in form of a TestNet, and Point of Sale and Wallet mobile applications. GRAFT is working with leading payment terminal providers in getting fast market adoption.

Rules & Submission

  • Write an article about how GRAFT is going to change payment processing! How will having a PoS solution that can be installed onto existing terminals allow mass adoption? How will the world of cryptocurrencies benefit from potentially being accepted at every PoS? As always, be creative. Maybe write a use-case about a store that is able to easily accept cryptocurrencies. Maybe write about how this would effect your spending behavior. All ideas are welcome!

  • Feel free to use images and media from their website. You can even make your own video and have it in your submission!
