Private. Instant. Zero-fees.

Purpose

22

Tixl is a new cryptocurrency that allows private, instant and zero-fee transactions.

Problem

33

None of the popular cryptocurrencies allows private, instant and zero-fee transactions at the same time.

◂ But why is that a problem?◂ In a world heading more and more towards digital currencies, we must secure that the

essential properties of traditional money preserve. Nobody, neither governments or companies nor private people want the public to be able to look into their monetary transactions.

◂ All users of a digital currency wish to pay as low fees as possible, the higher the fee, the lower the potential for widespread usage.

◂ If a future currency is slow in terms of transaction speed, it’s not a future currency.

Solution

44

We use the most sophisticated technologies emerged from the blockchain world of the past years.

◂ A Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) data structure together with the Stellar Consensus Protocol (SCP) to support fast transactions.

◂ Zero-knowledge proofs with a commitment scheme to enable confidential transactions.◂ Confidential transactions because they are superior to other approaches such as coin mixing

services, CoinJoin or Mimblewimble. ◂ Quantum secure cryptosystems (NTRU + XMSS) to ensure that transactions stay private.

Why Now?

55

“I believe we should consider the possibility to issue digital currency.” Christine Lagarde, Managing Director, IMF, 2018

Please ask yourself: Do you you want states or central banks to issue and control future digital currencies? ◂ We believe a monetary ledger should neither be public nor controlled by a company, state or

central bank.◂ We believe in decentralized currencies as the best solution for the monetary system of the

future. That’s why we use the best technologies emerged from the past few years of crypto assets to create a superior payment solution now.

◂ Competitive advantages◂ Dash: The implementation of CoinJoin is not very decentralized at all. If a single entity can control or spy on a portion of Dash’s master

nodes, it’s entirely possible to reverse engineer transactions to reveal origin and destination details.◂ Monero: Monero has problems regarding transaction speed, scalability, and the rather high fees.◂ Zcash: Scalability will remain a major pain point for Zcash in the near future. ◂ MimbleWimble: When MW transactions are published to the unconfirmed transaction (TX) pool, the TX inputs and outputs are still visible.

It’s possible and probably easy for anyone to keep recording all the transactions from the unconfirmed transaction pool. This data could be used to build detailed transaction graphs of the network.

◂ Balances are always private, encrypted and stored on unassignable stealth-chains.◂ We achieve instant and zero-fee transactions by using a DAG data-structure. ◂ We use NTRU (encryption) and XMSS (signatures) to be prepared for the advent of

quantum computers.◂ We use a consensus protocol that makes energy-wasting mining obsolete.

Business Model

1010

Since Tixl is a cryptocurrency, we don’t have a traditional business model. We as the founders of Tixl will own 5% of the total supply of our currency. If the value of our currency increases, we will profit. Our tokens are vested, thus we are interested in a long-term performance.

In short: Tixl’s business model is the same as Bitcoin’s, just without mining.
