Business Idea

Minerva is a payment service provider and application with a cryptocurrency utility token (OWL) which provides an additional revenue stream to approved merchants accepting it as a method of payment. They seek to demonstrate less violent short-term fluctuations through Proof-of-Transaction and introduce incentivized payment solutions to accelerate the mainstream adoption of digital currencies and smart contracts, integrating with a $20 million annual revenue platform with over 10 million users. Minerva aims to incentivize approved merchants to adopt its cryptocurrency as a new payment method. Incentivization is achieved by rewarding these merchants with newly minted OWL. These are generated at a variable rate as OWL.
