ZUG, Switzerland, April 26, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Jinbi Token (https://jinbitoken.io/), a UK and Switzerland-based gold-backed blockchain business, today announces its crowdsale will commence on Friday June 1 2018. There will be 8.75 million tokens available to the public, with 1.25 million tokens allocated to a pre-sale starting Tuesday May 29 2018.

Jinbi (https://jinbitoken.io/) will be the first token to be partnered with a gold mining company. Each token will be assigned gold via smart contracts, meaning that every piece of gold will be accounted for, allowing partners to know where the gold is located and how much each token holds.

This provides an easy, safe and simple way to transact in an efficient, anonymous and high frequency manner. Jinbi is revolutionizing the security of gold assets - by using blockchain technology and implementing smart contracts - to increase the secure structure of the company.

The business holds a legal offtake agreement with the mining partner for the production of gold. Once the gold is produced, it will be refined by Produits Artistiques Metaux Precieux (PAMP) (http://www.pamp.com/) in Switzerland and Kaloti (http://www.kalotipm.com/). The Kaloti Refinery, which is based in Dubai, UAE is situated within the Free Trade Zone, has a strong track record in the gold refinery business. The gold will then be stored by an accredited and recognised Jinbi partner and inspected by Bureau Veritas, once per quarter. 

Finally, once approved and verified, the gold will be linked to a smart contract and will be permanently registered on the blockchain.

Jinbi Token has a working relationship with International Precious Metals Limited, (IPM). IPM aims to achieve five bullion vaults globally and a total of 25,000 safe deposit boxes and one high grade precious metals refinery.

The token will be the first one, other than Pillar, to utilise the new Pillar wallet. The Pillar wallet is set to be the most secure ethereum token wallet which will be launched in early Quarter 3 2018. The Jinbi Token Co-Founder Andre Rafnsson is part of Twenty-Thirty AG, the team that created the Pillar Project.

Andre Rafnsson, Co-Founder of Jinbi said "Our expectations are to have 150,000 ounces of gold, linked to smart contracts by 2019.

"All bars produced are 24 carat gold with a fineness of 999.5. They are delivered brand new and the bars will be available in various sizes from 5g to 12.5kg. Once the gold is allocated it can then be delivered or stored."

Jinbi has partnered with the team at Pillar Project (https://pillarproject.io/) to store all tokens in the secure Pillar wallet.

About the ICO 

The company will launch its pre-sale on May 29 2018, with the main ICO launching on Friday June 1 2018 and it will run until Thursday June 29 2018.

There will be a total of 1.25 million tokens available to purchase for the pre-sale. This will take place by sending a combination of a smart contract and an ether address by email, detailing instructions to the investor on how to participate in the sale.

The company is aiming to raise $88,000,000.00 across the 29-day ICO to the public and will mint a maximum of 8.75 million tokens. Of these, 10 million tokens (equivalent to 80% of the total) will be available to the public, and 2.5 million tokens (equivalent to 20% of the total) will be available to management.

All unsold tokens from the pre-sale and the main ICO will be iced for two years using a smart contract. After this period, the tokens may be sold, re-iced or burned dependent on a collective decision made by the Jinbi management team.

Full instructions on how to participate in the pre-sale and main ICO can be accessed through the main website (https://jinbitoken.io/buy/ ).
