General information

Project’s leading Idea


To build the complex ecosystem that allows to easily create,

manage and develop:

● personal Token
● organizational Tokens

● startup Tokens
● corporate Tokens

● DeFi Tokens
● NFT Tokens

Token name: Token ticker:

Student Coin STC

The aim of the project is to put the tokens and blockchain into the mainstream-

Student Coin is a first platform that allows to perform the wide-scale

tokenization for people, organizations, corporations, startups and

decentralized finances (DeFi). The wide-scale tokenization is a process that

needs an easy-to-use and universal ecosystem that is constructed by the

Student Coin. With the STC ecosystem everyone will be able to easily create

any kind of token and develop it in the long run. Student Coin will allow for

tokenizing people, firms and organizations, as well as, manage token utilities,

perform crowdfunding and easily list new projects.

University is an environment for innovation, new technology research, and the

source of great ideas. Moreover, universities around the world are now more

connected than ever before and have a lot of external value transfers. Finally,

the global educational market is one of the fastest-growing sectors, creating a

great environment to build disruptive blockchain-based solutions such as the

Student Coin. These three factors made universities a perfect place to create

the first wide-scale tokenization platform, similar to how the Internet and social

media began.

3
Student Coin is also the first cryptocurrency directly

related to the network of universities that helps in

promoting the blockchain values and building the

big international community. The Student Coin is run

by students, faculties, and entrepreneurs from over

20 universities, including the Kozminski University,

New York University, Harvard University, Stanford

University, University of Oxford, London School of

Economics and the Imperial College London.

There is one big advantage of Student Coin in comparison to other

blockchain-based projects. Student Coin is fully supported by the academic

faculties, with a professional business-driven and educative approach. The

involvement of the academic world will lead to the establishment of the open

and complex network for tokenization, that will be easy in use for every

person, as well as with professional solutions for corporations and startups.

The project is the first program that directly targets not only the crypto investors

community, but also students, and educate them about the blockchain

technology, cryptocurrency markets and exchanges, and DeFi - allowing them

to trade, invest, and learn about crypto assets. The list of supported

universities, students, and faculties is constantly updated and is available at:

STC

Ecosystem
The project is divided into two main parts
The business part The educational part
STC ecosystem that bases on STC Education that aims to teach
Token, and allows to create and about the world of blockchain,
easily manage tokens for tokenization, new technologies,
organizations, corporations, and personal finance that helps
startups and individuals via STC to put the tokens into the
Terminal, STC Exchange and STC mainstream and expands the
App. community.
The Student Coin ecosystem for tokenization will be built by the following
platforms:

STC Terminal
the software for firms, organizations and individuals to
create and easily manage their own STC-based tokens

STC Exchange
the publicly available exchange with all the tokens traded only to STC. A
place for the startup crowdfunding and STC-based DeFi tokens issuance.

STC App
the mobile and desktop application to store, swap, and easily use the utility
of the DeFi and personal tokens created in the STC Terminal.

5
The educational part of
Student Coin
In the world of extreme development, speed and rapid internet, it is hard to

keep up with every technology trend; hence, there is a scarcity of people who

actually deeply understand the details behind blockchain, cryptocurrencies,

DeFi, and tokenization.

The Student Coin aims to create the world’s biggest educational database

about blockchain, tokens, tokenization, cryptocurrencies, new technologies,

economics, and decentralised finance. This database will be a great tool for

gaining new users and developing the whole cryptocurrency market, that will

distinguish Student Coin from other crypto projects.

The educational part of the project

is extremely important to build the

awareness of cryptocurrencies

and Student Coin, launch the

Partnerships with the worlds’

leading universities and develop

the network of Student Coin

Ambassadors.

Personal, Corporate,
and DeFi token built on
Student Coin
The world needs a platform that allows for fast and easy tokenization. Student
Coin ecosystem will allow users without programming background to create
different kinds of tokens in 5 minutes, and to easily manage their utility and
development. The establishment of such a token, based in STC, will be as easy
as setting a new profile on social media.

Every person, project and firm will be able to create their own token in the STC
Terminal with the option to set the logo, description, supply and the full range
of utilities. What is more, the tokens created at STC Terminal will have
crowdfunding opportunities and be traded at STC Exchange.

STC-based token
features

The wide-scale tokenization should allow not only to create any kind of token,
but also for the easy management of the token and its development. STC
Ecosystem will ensure that all kinds of tokens can be still developing long after
the token launch.

W ith the STC terminal users will be able to create following tokens:

Personal Tokens Loan Tokens (DeFi) Organizational Tokens

NFT Tokens Crowdfunding Tokens (DeFi) Startup Tokens


All of these tokens will be based and traded only to the STC Token.

STC Token
The blockchain-based Student Coin ecosystem has its

own currency – STC Token. The utility and the usage

of the STC Token are corresponding to the amenities

of the blockchain technology and tokenization. STC

works as a reference currency for the equity flow in

the whole ecosystem, powering the STC Terminal

usage, STC Exchange trading and STC App

applications.

The key role of the STC Token is being the reference currency for all of the

tokens ever created at STC Terminal, the personal, DeFi and startup tokens will

be traded at STC Exchange only to STC, making it the measure of the worth. It

means that by holding STC Token, investors are also holding the part of the

whole ecosystem and a part of all the to kens created with Student Coin-

giving it a great value growth mechanism.

The second main utility of the STC is the staking option that will create the

passive income from STC Exchange fees, so by staking STC, investors will

receive part of the income generated from STC Exchange trading and

crowdfunding.

The last major STC utility is the ecosystem governing, by holding STC, investors

can vote in the project development and grant the most interesting projects

built in the STC ecosystem.

What is more, STC Token will contain not only value growth mechanisms, but

also liquidity growth mechanisms and utilities.

9
STC token value will be increasing corresponding to the growth of the

ecosystem and the creation of new tokens.

STC Token value growth mechanisms:

STC as a reference currency for the whole ecosystem and all existing tokens

STC as a trading base TOKENS/STC for all of the pairs at STC Exchange

Advanced staking option to receive the part of the profit generated at STC

Exchange

Ecosystem governing and voting

STC Token liquidity building mechanisms:

The currency to perform crowdfunding at STC Exchange

The currency to share the profit from DeFi tokens

The currency to share the profit from startups investments

The currency to share profit from social trading

STC Bank establishment

STC Token utilities:

The template to build the personal tokens

The template to build the organizational tokens

The template to build the DeFi tokens

The template to build the startup tokens

Access to premium options at STC Terminal

Access to premium options at STC Exchange

Access to premium options at STC App

Perform marketing of the STC-based projects

Part of each token created at STC Terminal will be also held in the STC Bank,

that will be a reserve of the personal, DeFi and startup tokens for the STC

Token holders. The mechanisms will work as the value -backing and liquidity

building program.

10
STC Terminal

The wide-scale tokenization will allow every person, organization, startup,

firm, corporation or asset to become tokenized. With the STC Terminal, without

any programming knowledge, every person and firm will be able to create its

own secure token with the range of utilities to apply. The tokens will be built at

Ethereum and will have hard-coded and ecosystem-based utilities.

The STC Terminal will also deliver a range of tools to develop the tokens in the

long run, by in-built features as communication panel, twitter feed, marketing

activities and utility management. What is more, each token created at

Ethereum network will be able to be imported into the STC Exchange and

managed with STC Terminal.

11
STC Exchange
The open market and the free investments are the great motors for fast
implementation of new solutions. This is why STC Exchange will be open for the
STC-based token listings and crowdfunding. After the token is created at the
STC Terminal and will undergo the initial verification, the founder will have a
free option to perform crowdfunding and listing at STC Exchange.

A lot of projects will be able to gather funds via their tokens at STC Exchange
and develop businesses based at the token development. The crowdfunding at
STC Exchange will be performed only with STC Token as the currency, while
investors will receive the newly created tokens. The tokens that will choose to
perform crowdfunding will have to pass the different levels of review and
provide necessary documentation - that will allow investors to have better
insights into the projects. Although the main idea is to keep the crowdfunding
as free as possible, most of the projects will need to pass KYC procedure.

Some of the projects and people may also decide to go straight toward a
listing, or staking, and omit the crowdfunding process. The tokens created at
STC Terminal will be freely listed at STC Exchange in a set category and to the
STC as the only base and reference currency. STC Exchange will create some
basic market making and liquidity solutions that will be available for the
verified tokens.

Finally, giving free access to listing, with the tool for the easy token
establishment will make the STC Exchange the biggest crypto exchange in
terms of the number of listed assets, even outrunning DEX exchanges as
Uniswap.

Token distribution and
mining
All the STC Tokens are pre-mined; hence Student Coin is not minable. The main
distribution of the Student Coin will be made during the official project launch
at STC Launchpad ICO. Before the Launchpad, during the first 3 phases of the
project. A small part of tokens equal to 2% of the total supply was distributed
through the university partners, student organizations, supporting faculty,
team members and marketing airdrops. After the STC Launchpad ICO there
will be no official airdrops performed.

The total supply of Student Coins is 10,000,000,000 STC and the coins in the
market circulation (circulating supply) are limited by each of the development
phases. During the Launchpad ICO the circulating supply will be equal to 2% of
the total supply.

The total supply of coins is reserved for long-term project development (Phase
4+), Launchpad ICO performance, cooperation with new organizations, and
founder-community decision. To guarantee optimal project development at
each of the phases and sustain the healthy circulating supply, the tokens were
listed at a few exchanges before the STC Launchpad ICO.
