Trade.io is one of the leading and most innovative exchange platforms out there currently, it has so far been my favorite place to buy and sell cryptocurrencies because I find the interface easy to use, I find the entire system quite fluid and useful for me.

Kratos platform

But this post isn't really about trade.io but rather about a very small, very easy to overlook token called Kratos. The Kratos blockchain project that is looking to disrupt and improve the physical commodities trading market by using blockchain technology to improve on the aspects that are slow and inefficient.

One of the problems that we often have to deal with in the space is the fact that verification and transparency alongside trust issues come up every day.

What Kratos has done is they have improved on certain aspects of this market by employing blockchain technology to improve efficiency, to improve transparency, reduce the number of intermediaries needed in any trade and improve the overall trust system using smart contracts and techniques that the Ethereum blockchain provides.

Directly from their website,

KRATOS™ is a blockchain based platform connecting all participants across the commodities ecosystem 24x7 globally.

The concept protects buyers, sellers, traders, banks, insurance and logistics from fraudulent transactions and other unwarranted trade risks, thereby significantly transforming and enhancing international physical commodity trading across its whole product life cycle.
