How BNC Pro disrupts the SaaS model

The software-as-a-service (SaaS) premise is simple: create a product / service and charge an ongoing subscription fee. The hook is familiar. Sign up for a free trial to a website or app or service, but first, the user must hand over credit card details. With so many logins, trials, passwords and subscriptions to keep track of, users often forget to cancel before the trial period ends and are charged for a subscription. It’s an effective but somewhat cynical money maker.

The BNC Token – A new approach to value & payment

Today’s customers are demanding more choice and flexibility in their online and offline services. In the emerging digital economy, crypto assets enable microtransactions – the price-gouging SaaS model is outdated and ripe for disruption. If a user can pay for a service with a microtransaction – this is a fairer, more ethical approach than a lock-in period of 12 months at a high price.

The BNC Token enables this new model – as a utility token that acts as a ‘transferable software license and gives token holders the ability to access premium features on the BNC Pro platform by paying in microtransactions.

The BNC token is built on ERC20 standard. However, it isn’t subject to the same congestion and network issues associated with Ethereum. State machines are used as the special sauce between BNC Pro and the BNC token – this allows the platform to function independently of the underlying blockchain while still having the security, immutability, and divisibility of the Ethereum public blockchain. State machines are computational proofs often used at the application layer that allows a machine to have different states but use only one of them at a time.

A best-in-class portfolio tool

Ultimately Brave New Coin may apply this new value and payment system to all its products and services. The first product suite to use the model is BNC Pro. Currently in beta testing and scheduled for a public launch by the end of November, BNC Pro is an all-in-one portfolio management solution that integrates a user’s portfolio and trading data with a suite of institutional-grade data, analysis and research tools.

Summed up, BNC Pro is a complete crypto asset portfolio solution designed for use by investors and traders across the retail, professional and enterprise segments who are looking for a tool that can deliver them a ‘unfair’ market advantage.
