Any app can launch branded tokens on open scalable side-chains, powered by 

Simple Token, a protocol for consumer-app tokenization and an ERC-20 utility token.

On 14 November we are launching
Simple Token to empower an ecosystem
and to finance further development.
Executive Summary
A protocol for consumer-app tokenization powered by a blockchain and a utility token.
• What. Technologies that companies can use to design, launch, and manage their own branded tokens powered by
Simple Token, a protocol and an ERC-20 utility token. 

• Why. Blockchain technologies hold tremendous promise for a new generation of consumer Internet services, but
blockchain is currently too complex for most consumer apps, too daunting for consumer-facing developers, and
not currently scalable to millions of end-user micro-transactions without public-private chain innovations.

• How. The OpenST protocol, available today https://github.com/openstfoundation, enables companies to stake
Simple Tokens against their own Branded Tokens, minted on open scaleable side blockchains, in a cryptographically
auditable manner. Developers are building applications on top of OpenST. The Simple Token SaaS platform, under
development, gives companies the tools to manage, customize, monitor, and analyze their ST-powered token
economy.

• Developers. We aim to foster an ecosystem that will take the lead and develop Simple Token protocols on behalf of
the community. Developers will be encouraged to contribute to the Simple Token project and can earn Simple
Tokens for their contributions.
• Team. From the consumer-Internet technology team behind Pepo, Hem, Fab, and Social Median; the lead
developer of Hyperledger Burrow (Monax); and the Blockchain technology team Enuma (prior work on EOS &
OpenANX).

• Token Sale #1: Public sale on 14, November 2017. Total token supply: 800,000,000. 30% of token supply will be
offered for$20M (hard cap). 27.2% of tokens reserved for a Network Accelerator Program to seed promising
projects built on Simple Token. 10% advisors, 10% founders, 5.6% early backers (all on longterm vesting schedules).
12.6% reserved for future token sales. Pre-sale underway as of 5 September, 2017, $200K minimum for pre-sale.

Public Ethereum Is Not Yet Capable of Supporting Consumer Micro-Transactions
• A new app like Pepo would account for nearly 1% of the maximum number of daily Ethereum transactions.
• One medium-sized app like Unsplash (330M monthly API calls) would overwhelm Ethereum entirely.
• The median Ethereum transaction cost is $0.12 per transaction — not viable for consumer micro-transactions.

Some Real-Life Consumer Use Cases for Tokenization & Blockchain Technology
Consumer Business
An Ethereum Token
could help solve this!
• Disrupt incumbents
• Reduce value leakage to
Facebook, Google, Apple
WANTS
• Engagement
• Growth
• Monetization
NEEDS
CAUTION!
BUT
AHA!
Tokenization is Hard,
and not Consumer App
Plug-n-Play
• Incentivize users
• Reward value creation
• Monetize micro-transactions
• Decentralize
• Link value realization to value creation
• Interoperability to other services
• High costs: >$500K to ICO (legal, tax,
advisory)
• High effort & complexity: not core com-
petency
• High risk: legal, regulatory, tax, security,
fraud
• High technology constraints: No existing
consumer protocols, Ethereum is not
ready for high volume, high transaction
costs, challenging user experiences
Consumer Apps Need A Bridge To Crypto

The Simple Token Open Side-chain is validated by Simple Token Foundation, Simple Token Company, and member
companies. Anyone can send transactions to the Side-chain, and anyone can verify it. To ensure immutability of the Side-
chain, the state root is regularly anchored in a Simple Token smart contract on public Ethereum.

Simple Token
• Simple Token Protocol allows staking of crypto-
assets on public Ethereum to mint Branded Token
on Sidechain
• Simple Token Protocol uses merkle proofs and
signed receipts to ensure atomic and
cryptographically secured transfer of usable value
between Ethereum and the SImple Token Sidechain

• Simple Token Protocol keeps all valuable crypto-
assets on Ethereum, and they can be recovered in
case of proven Byzantine behaviour on the Simple
Token Sidechain

• We define Simple Token Side-chain to be open because anyone can formulate a transaction and a
transaction is valid or invalid in its own right. The Side-chain is validated not just by the Foundation
and the Simple Token Company, but also by the member companies.
• To ensure that no-one can attempt to rewrite the block history of the Simple Token Side-chain, the
Foundation will submit the hash of the latest block height to a contract on public Ethereum.
• Smart contracts for the member companies’ branded tokens and all their transactions will be
executed on the open Side-chain. This makes privacy of the users, security, scalability, and
performance important considerations when evaluating the right blockchain technology for Simple
Token’s needs.
• To protect the privacy of the users of the services of the member companies on inherently public
networks, we will work closely with member companies to ensure that no personally identifiable
information is stored on the Side-chain. We do this out of respect for our users, conviction for what is
right, and to comply with data protection regulations.
• For the initial test phase, we will also test on a private version of native Ethereum (Proof-of-Authority)
to separate the core competency of Simple Token from the evaluation of and contributions to the
most suited platform to execute Simple Token on.

• Simple Token is on the public Ethereum blockchain while
the Member Companies are all within a highly scalable
open Side-chain.
• ST is a freely floated ERC-20 token, while the Member
Companies’ branded tokens are not floated.
• In Phase 1 all Member Company in-app transactions
happen within their own communities.

• Notably, the Simple Token solution enables companies to
obtain Blockchain benefits without requiring their entire
business to be on a blockchain.
• As Simple Token evolves and as Ethereum evolves and improves:
• Interoperability across the Simple Token network with a common Simple Token
wallet and interoperable services.
• Interoperability with the broader Ethereum universe.
• Successful Member Companies with proven market liquidity could spin out of the Simple
Token Side-chain and float their own token in ICO events.

TARGET SIMPLE TOKEN EARLY-ADOPTER COMPANY PROFILE

• Consumer-facing marketplace business.
• Desires to utilize a token to decentralize and/or democratize vs. powerful incumbents.
• Desires to utilize a token not just as means to transfer value but more-so to empower users as stakeholders, associate
value realization to value creation.
• Able to contribute to the ongoing development of the Simple Token protocols and participate in evolution of the
Foundation.
The Simple Token Platform
Simple Token Use Case #1: Pepo
• The first confirmed Member Company for Simple Token is Pepo. 

• Pepo aims to democratize the market for local and travel expertise.

• There are currently 200,000 Pepo app users. Pepo desires to deploy a token, Pepo
Coin, to grow to 5M+ high-engaged users.

• Pepo desires to utilize Simple Token to power its Pepo Coin, and incentivize and
reward valued content creation, enable peer-to-peer transactions, and to build a user-
first alternative to large advertising-supported businesses like TripAdvisor & Yelp.

• Working with Pepo enables Simple Token to develop its protocols in response to real-
life customer needs rather than developing in a vacuum. 

• The following slides present mock-ups of how Simple Token could be used by Pepo.

USD• One concern of consumer-facing companies considering tokenization is exposing their users to wild price fluctuations as currently experienced
with crypto currencies.
• Negative fluctuations could hamper users’ faith in the economy and create challenging user experiences (i.e. if a user earns $100 worth of a
token for selling a real-world service only to have that drop to $20).
• Positive appreciation could drive consumers to cash out and / or hoard the currency.
• To mitigate this, 3rd party companies are exploring providing price stabilization-as-a-service of Branded Tokens to Member Companies. To achieve
this, rather than staking Simple Tokens against Branded Tokens, a basket of non-correlated and less volatile assets could be staked against the
Member Company’s Branded Tokens. The potential roadmap conceptualizes that this service could also be provided in a decentralized fashion by
other holders of Simple Token
• Any appreciation in the basket of crypto-assets could be captured as profit (sell off excess crypto-assets), while depreciation would need to be
addressed by loading more crypto-assets into the collateral address.
The Simple Token Platform
Price Stabilization (Conceptual Concepts, Could be Provided by 3rd Parties)
In this example, the project selects a maximum of 10%
price appreciation and minimum of 10% price
depreciation, creating a band between $1.1 and $.09
within which the BT fiat price is allowed to fluctuate
When the effective price drops below 10%, the
company must put new cryptoassets into the
collateral address—or the smart contract makes a
capital call on a designated reserve address.
When the effective price drops below 10%, the
company must put new crypto-assets into the
collateral address—or the smart contract makes a
capital call on a designated reserve address.
When the effective price rises above 10%, the
company has the option of selling their excess
collateral, because they aren’t needed to
guarantee the price.
At the end of a designated cycle,
the company has the option of
adjusting the base price.

• Early on, companies will be able to attain Simple Tokens by:

• Buying them outright from the issuers or others.

• Earning them through valued contributions to the Simple Token mission. Bounties will be established for
desired projects and offers and submissions will be evaluated by the Foundation.

• Receiving grants for specific projects.

• Scaling to hundreds and thousands of Member Companies via Pay-Go Programs .
• We are exploring various methods for enabling Simple Token Participating Companies to pay monthly
subscriptions for the amount of tokens being utilized in their networks rather than incurring large
upfront fees, similar to the popular AWS pay-for-use programs.

• Such programs could be combined with price stability services and other value added services.

• In the future other 3rd party companies could also offer such products to Simple Token Participating
Companies.

• The Foundation's purpose is to promote the real world application of the OpenST protocols and its implementations,
collectively referred to as “the OpenST Platform” or “the Platform.” It will have its own robust governance model.
• The Foundation also aims to initially develop the OpenST Platform and advocate governance and transparency for the
Platform.
• ST Token holders, Developers, and Member Companies will be empowered to determine the direction of functionality
and improvement to the Platform and associated ecosystem.
• The Foundation shall be separate from any for-profit ventures, including the separate for profit Simple Token Company.
The Foundation shall have an independent Board of Directors of 5 members, with oversight over token supply, token
distribution, and allocation of Foundation resources.
• The Foundation shall own the IP for the Platform which enables Simple Tokens to be staked against deploying Branded
Tokens on side-chains and associated API’s which enable Simple Token-based applications and services.
• The Foundation shall provide the Platform on an “open source” basis for anyone with a license to study, change,
distribute, to anyone, for any purpose. However, the Foundation reserves the right to approve Memberships to the
Platform which are required in order to stake ST against Branded Tokens on the Platform.
• It is initially conceived that The Foundation shall conduct the following activities:
• Manage the ST token supply.
• Manage the Platform development and intellectual property.
• Allocate Foundation resources.
• Evaluate and approve memberships.
• Evaluate and approve ST token grants under the ST Network Accelerator Program.
• Approve the deployment of branded tokens based on Simple Tokens.
• The Foundation may take on other activities in the future.

Governance
44
• After the Token Sale 27.2% of Simple Tokens shall be reserved in the Network Accelerator Program.

• Early on, one of the primary uses of the Network Accelerator Program shall be to provide Simple Tokens as
grants to Early Adopter Companies to help them kickstart their Simple Token implementations and growth
of their networks. Early Adopter Companies will help define requirements for the protocol, software, and
related services, and shall help contribute to the Simple Token open-source protocol.

• Up to 30% of each Network Accelerator grant may be provided to the project team of the Early Adopter
Company, under a long-term vesting schedule, to further incentivize the team to create value utilizing
Simple Token.

• The Foundation shall review and approve Network Accelerator grant requests and determine the terms and
conditions of grants.

• In addition to Pepo who is helping define and develop the Simple Token platform, we are currently
evaluating several interested Network Accelerator Companies.
Network Accelerator Program
45
• OpenST Platform, is the open-source implementation of the OpenST protocol. Any developer can utilize the OpenST
Platform to build a software suite of modules, dashboards and applications that enables Member Companies to easily
integrate with the sidechain and allow their end-consumers to carry out different types of transactions using branded
tokens on the sidechain.
• For example, while OpenST publishes the specifications and implements the REST APIs for value transfers between two
addresses, developers can provide admin dashboards with transaction modules where Member Companies can easily
configure the types of value transfer transactions that Pepo’s users can perform, like Up Votes etc.
• Developers can then further offer value added services build on top of the OpenST Platform, for example, end-
consumer’s transaction history, analytics, pay-per-go, price stabilization mechanisms, price oracles etc.
• In future, we envision the protocol to develop in a way that allows the end-consumers to use Simple Tokens for
transactions across various Member Companies in a seamless manner. Developers can build wallet services for end-
consumers using such protocol methods.
• OpenST will also work towards advancing the requirements beneficial to the OpenST Platform, particularly related to
scalability and privacy. This includes work that contributes to (application-specific) sidechain and payment channel
technology.

• The relationship between The Simple Token Company and the Foundation is on a as-mutually-beneficial basis only
and non-exclusive. The two companies are distinct and all services that may be provided would be on an at arms-
length basis.
• The Foundation may contract with the Company to develop technology on behalf of the Foundation. Any and all
technology developed by the company for The Platform shall be provided as open-sourced technology with IP
owned and managed by the Foundation.
• Any value-added-services or unique user experiences or presentation layers developed by The Company, at its
own expense, that extend the value of the Platform may be retained as proprietary IP by the Company. The
Company shall be entitled to earn profits from such activities.
• The Company may provide deployment services and technology to help onboard Member Companies onto the
Platform and to help Member Companies manage their usage of the Platform. The Company shall be entitled to
earn profits from such activities.
• The Company may provide additional value added services to Member Companies beyond those contemplated
herein. The Company shall be entitled to earn profits from such activities.
• The Company, (and specifically not the Foundation), may engage in risk-taking activities such as KYC checks (for
cash-in and cash-out by end-consumers), price stabilization, insurance policies, and financing programs to enable
further adoption of Simple Token by Member Companies. The Company shall be entitled to earn profits from
such activities.
• The Foundation may provide financial resources to the Company (as it may to other companies and organizations)
to compensate for its efforts in marketing, sales, business development, technology, and other areas that further
the mission of the Foundation, development of the Platform, and growth of the ecosystem.

“We began exploring tokenizing the consumer marketplace
Pepo in 2016. Beyond the enormous costs and regulatory
cautions involved with launching a blockchain-based token,
we quickly discovered a huge gap between the promise of
blockchain technologies and the ability to currently deploy
tokens within consumer apps. An entire set of B2C-friendly
protocols needs to be developed in order to bridge the
gap between crypto and consumer. Rather than wait for
others to develop it, Simple Token is building that bridge.
Our team has worked on many high profile and high
scaling projects. Simple Token is far and away the most
technologically challenging and greatest impact project
we’ve ever taken on. ”
Jason Goldberg

“We’ve been building large scale Internet technologies
for more than a decade, reaching tens of millions of
consumers. When it comes to blockchain, there’s so
much potential for a new wave of disruptive applications
that enable consumers to realize economic value. Much
as Stripe has built enabling technology for any internet
company to easily accept payments, Simple Token is
developing enabling technology for any internet
company to simply and safely tokenize.”

“As the lead developer for Hyperledger Burrow, I last
worked at Monax to enable enterprise-grade applications
on a permissioned blockchain node following the
Ethereum smart contract code specification. I am
delighted to work with the team at Simple Token as it
presents a unique opportunity to work on a protocol
that has the potential to propel Ethereum and
Blockchain technologies to mainstream apps and mass-
consumer adoption.”

“Our team prides itself on consumerizing technology. A
great recent example is our work with AWS SES. We were
the first company to create a robust and highly scalable way
for any company to harness the power of AWS SES without
writing any code of their own.
Simple Token presents a similar and exciting challenge: To
enable any Internet company to easily and safely deploy
blockchain technology and tokens to their end-users.
Pepo is excited to be the first customer of Simple Token and
to contribute to its development.”

“We’ve been implementing Blockchain technologies for
some of the most exciting projects in the industry,
including programming the smart contracts for two of
the largest ICO’s, and working on KYC solutions,
payment platforms, security auditing, and wallets.
Rarely have we seen a project with as big of a vision and
possible impact on the Blockchain community as Simple
Token. We’re thrilled to be part of the Simple Token
founding team.”

 Simple Token, a protocol for consumer-app tokenization and an ERC-20 utility token. 4 On 14 November we are launching Simple Token to empower an ecosystem and to finance further development.
  • 5. Executive Summary A protocol for consumer-app tokenization powered by a blockchain and a utility token. • What. Technologies that companies can use to design, launch, and manage their own branded tokens powered by Simple Token, a protocol and an ERC-20 utility token. 
 • Why. Blockchain technologies hold tremendous promise for a new generation of consumer Internet services, but blockchain is currently too complex for most consumer apps, too daunting for consumer-facing developers, and not currently scalable to millions of end-user micro-transactions without public-private chain innovations.
 • How. The OpenST protocol, available today https://github.com/openstfoundation, enables companies to stake Simple Tokens against their own Branded Tokens, minted on open scaleable side blockchains, in a cryptographically auditable manner. Developers are building applications on top of OpenST. The Simple Token SaaS platform, under development, gives companies the tools to manage, customize, monitor, and analyze their ST-powered token economy.
 • Developers. We aim to foster an ecosystem that will take the lead and develop Simple Token protocols on behalf of the community. Developers will be encouraged to contribute to the Simple Token project and can earn Simple Tokens for their contributions. • Team. From the consumer-Internet technology team behind Pepo, Hem, Fab, and Social Median; the lead developer of Hyperledger Burrow (Monax); and the Blockchain technology team Enuma (prior work on EOS & OpenANX).
 • Token Sale #1: Public sale on 14, November 2017. Total token supply: 800,000,000. 30% of token supply will be offered for$20M (hard cap). 27.2% of tokens reserved for a Network Accelerator Program to seed promising projects built on Simple Token. 10% advisors, 10% founders, 5.6% early backers (all on longterm vesting schedules). 12.6% reserved for future token sales.

  • 23. For further details please consult the Simple Token Technology White Paper. 23 • We define Simple Token Side-chain to be open because anyone can formulate a transaction and a transaction is valid or invalid in its own right. The Side-chain is validated not just by the Foundation and the Simple Token Company, but also by the member companies. • To ensure that no-one can attempt to rewrite the block history of the Simple Token Side-chain, the Foundation will submit the hash of the latest block height to a contract on public Ethereum. • Smart contracts for the member companies’ branded tokens and all their transactions will be executed on the open Side-chain. This makes privacy of the users, security, scalability, and performance important considerations when evaluating the right blockchain technology for Simple Token’s needs. • To protect the privacy of the users of the services of the member companies on inherently public networks, we will work closely with member companies to ensure that no personally identifiable information is stored on the Side-chain. We do this out of respect for our users, conviction for what is right, and to comply with data protection regulations. • For the initial test phase, we will also test on a private version of native Ethereum (Proof-of-Authority) to separate the core competency of Simple Token from the evaluation of and contributions to the most suited platform to execute Simple Token on.

 • Consumer-facing marketplace business. • Desires to utilize a token to decentralize and/or democratize vs. powerful incumbents. • Desires to utilize a token not just as means to transfer value but more-so to empower users as stakeholders, associate value realization to value creation. • Able to contribute to the ongoing development of the Simple Token protocols and participate in evolution of the Foundation. The Simple Token Platform Simple Token Use Case #1: Pepo • The first confirmed Member Company for Simple Token is Pepo. 
 • Pepo aims to democratize the market for local and travel expertise.
 • There are currently 200,000 Pepo app users. Pepo desires to deploy a token, Pepo Coin, to grow to 5M+ high-engaged users.
 • Pepo desires to utilize Simple Token to power its Pepo Coin, and incentivize and reward valued content creation, enable peer-to-peer transactions, and to build a user- first alternative to large advertising-supported businesses like TripAdvisor & Yelp.
 • Working with Pepo enables Simple Token to develop its protocols in response to real- life customer needs rather than developing in a vacuum. 
 • The following slides present mock-ups of how Simple Token could be used by Pepo. 29

 • Here we show Pepo’s planned implementation of “Up-Votes.”
 • Pepo Users will be encouraged to spend their Pepo Coin to up-vote valuable content.
 • Users could up-vote with any amount of Pepo Coin.
 • The amount of Pepo Coin spent to up-vote drives the virality and visibility of a post.
 • Payouts from up votes are splits transparently amongst users. The Simple Token Platform Customer Use Case: Pepo Transaction Modules 31 Directional Design Mock Only.

To achieve this, rather than staking Simple Tokens against Branded Tokens, a basket of non-correlated and less volatile assets could be staked against the Member Company’s Branded Tokens. The potential roadmap conceptualizes that this service could also be provided in a decentralized fashion by other holders of Simple Token • Any appreciation in the basket of crypto-assets could be captured as profit (sell off excess crypto-assets), while depreciation would need to be addressed by loading more crypto-assets into the collateral address. The Simple Token Platform Price Stabilization (Conceptual Concepts, Could be Provided by 3rd Parties) In this example, the project selects a maximum of 10% price appreciation and minimum of 10% price depreciation, creating a band between $1.1 and $.09 within which the BT fiat price is allowed to fluctuate When the effective price drops below 10%, the company must put new cryptoassets into the collateral address—or the smart contract makes a capital call on a designated reserve address. When the effective price drops below 10%, the company must put new crypto-assets into the collateral address—or the smart contract makes a capital call on a designated reserve address. When the effective price rises above 10%, the company has the option of selling their excess collateral, because they aren’t needed to guarantee the price. At the end of a designated cycle, the company has the option of adjusting the base price. STABILIZING THE PRICE OF BRANDED TOKEN

  • 38. 38 • Early on, companies will be able to attain Simple Tokens by:
 • Buying them outright from the issuers or others.
 • Earning them through valued contributions to the Simple Token mission. Bounties will be established for desired projects and offers and submissions will be evaluated by the Foundation.
 • Receiving grants for specific projects.
 • Scaling to hundreds and thousands of Member Companies via Pay-Go Programs . • We are exploring various methods for enabling Simple Token Participating Companies to pay monthly subscriptions for the amount of tokens being utilized in their networks rather than incurring large upfront fees, similar to the popular AWS pay-for-use programs.
 • Such programs could be combined with price stability services and other value added services.
 • In the future other 3rd party companies could also offer such products to Simple Token Participating Companies. The Simple Token Platform Scaling to 10,000+ Companies

 • Early on, one of the primary uses of the Network Accelerator Program shall be to provide Simple Tokens as grants to Early Adopter Companies to help them kickstart their Simple Token implementations and growth of their networks. Early Adopter Companies will help define requirements for the protocol, software, and related services, and shall help contribute to the Simple Token open-source protocol.
 • Up to 30% of each Network Accelerator grant may be provided to the project team of the Early Adopter Company, under a long-term vesting schedule, to further incentivize the team to create value utilizing Simple Token.
 • The Foundation shall review and approve Network Accelerator grant requests and determine the terms and conditions of grants.
 • In addition to Pepo who is helping define and develop the Simple Token platform, we are currently evaluating several interested Network Accelerator Companies. Network Accelerator Program
  • 45. 45 • OpenST Platform, is the open-source implementation of the OpenST protocol. Any developer can utilize the OpenST Platform to build a software suite of modules, dashboards and applications that enables Member Companies to easily integrate with the sidechain and allow their end-consumers to carry out different types of transactions using branded tokens on the sidechain. • For example, while OpenST publishes the specifications and implements the REST APIs for value transfers between two addresses, developers can provide admin dashboards with transaction modules where Member Companies can easily configure the types of value transfer transactions that Pepo’s users can perform, like Up Votes etc. • Developers can then further offer value added services build on top of the OpenST Platform, for example, end- consumer’s transaction history, analytics, pay-per-go, price stabilization mechanisms, price oracles etc. • In future, we envision the protocol to develop in a way that allows the end-consumers to use Simple Tokens for transactions across various Member Companies in a seamless manner. Developers can build wallet services for end- consumers using such protocol methods. • OpenST will also work towards advancing the requirements beneficial to the OpenST Platform, particularly related to scalability and privacy. This includes work that contributes to (application-specific) sidechain and payment channel technology. The OpenST Foundation An Open Platform for Development

  • 56. “We began exploring tokenizing the consumer marketplace Pepo in 2016. Beyond the enormous costs and regulatory cautions involved with launching a blockchain-based token, we quickly discovered a huge gap between the promise of blockchain technologies and the ability to currently deploy tokens within consumer apps. An entire set of B2C-friendly protocols needs to be developed in order to bridge the gap between crypto and consumer. Rather than wait for others to develop it, Simple Token is building that bridge. Our team has worked on many high profile and high scaling projects. Simple Token is far and away the most technologically challenging and greatest impact project we’ve ever taken on. ” Jason Goldberg Director, Simple Token Project Background THE TOKEN TO POWER YOUR BUSINESS 56
