Description

Blockchain-based integrated beauty service platform provision server and its operation method {SERVER AND METHOD FOR PROVIDING INTEGRATED BEAUTY SERVICE PLATFORM BASED ON BLOCKCHAIN}

The present invention relates to a blockchain-based integrated beauty service platform providing server and its operating method. More specifically, to an integrated beauty service platform providing server that introduces blockchain technology to the interaction between customers and beauty service providers, and the same. It's about how it works.

The beauty industry is a rapidly growing market with a variety of services including hair, skin, and nail care. These services were provided in physically separate locations, so customers who wanted to use the service generally had to visit other providers or facilities to receive other services.

Recently, with the development of information and communication technology and mobile terminal technology, many beauty services have begun to adopt digital platforms for scheduling and managing schedules. However, these platforms provide individual service providers or a single type of beauty service, so they cannot provide an integrated solution for customers looking for multiple types of beauty services.

In addition, although loyalty programs and compensation systems for individual beauty service providers exist, there is no comprehensive compensation system that provides a variety of beauty services on an integrated platform, and the existing compensation system is simple and only guarantees use for designated platforms. Its use and utilization are on the low side.

However, in the field of e-commerce, there are solutions that provide somewhat easier service use through electronic payments, but since payments are made through a ^3rd party payment system, they are vulnerable to the burden of additional fees and security issues, and payment due to additional processes. The complexity of management has increased.

Additionally, current beauty service providers attempt to provide personalized services based on basic information about customers, but this has the problem of failing to provide services that customers actually need by using information that is not personalized to customers.

Accordingly, there is a need for research on an integrated beauty service platform that can integrate various beauty services, provide a comprehensive and sophisticated compensation system, and at the same time recommend beauty services based on a personalized algorithm using customer personal information.

It may include the step of providing the settled amount.

At this time, the step of providing a reward for payment is the step of determining the basic token (T0) as the token of the value calculated by multiplying the payment amount by a conversion coefficient of a predetermined ratio, and calculating the total transaction volume or number of active users. If the value of the number of service providers is less than a predetermined threshold, the dynamic variable is set to greater than 1. If the value is greater than the predetermined threshold, the dynamic variable is set to greater than 0 and less than 1. If the value is equal to the predetermined threshold, the dynamic variable is set to greater than 1. Setting it to 1, calculating the quality factor by dividing the rating for the supplied service by the maximum rating, calculating the frequency factor by dividing the total number of times the supplied service was used during a predetermined period by a predetermined normalization factor, the user The step of determining whether to continue to use the same service provider's services and determining the royalty coefficient, which represents the number of additional tokens paid according to a predetermined quantity if the same service provider's services are continued to be used, and the sum of quality factors and frequency factors It may further include the step of paying tokens by adding the number of additional tokens according to the loyalty coefficient to the value multiplied by the dynamic variable and the basic token.

Meanwhile, a step of paying tokens equal to the total number of tokens held by the user and the service provider multiplied by a predetermined bonus rate and a dynamic variable may be further included as compensation for staking.

In addition, it may further include the step of generating and issuing an NFT (Non-Fungible Token) containing the service provider's character, BI, and company name.

At this time, receiving an image containing the user's body parts from the user terminal, analyzing the characteristics of the image using a machine learning model trained to recognize body parts, and dividing the user's body parts in each frame of the image. Thus, it may include the step of generating a mask that covers only the divided body parts and, when a supply service is selected from the user terminal, applying the expected shape of the selected supply service to the pixels in the mask to generate a composite image. .

Figure 1 is an exemplary diagram showing the operating environment of a blockchain-based integrated beauty service platform providing server according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to Figure 1, the blockchain-based integrated beauty service platform providing server 100 (hereinafter referred to as 'server 100') provides user information and user information for using integrated beauty services through the user terminal 10. You can receive beauty information.

Additionally, the server 100 can register and manage supplied services through a service provider. The supply service here includes retail and e-commerce of tools for hair, nails, skin, cosmetics, waxing and hair removal, spa, tanning, eye care and eyewear, plastic surgery, tattoos and body art, as well as educational information and services. It includes, and may be provided from the server 100 to the user terminal 10.

At this time, user information includes user name, gender, age, contact information, account information, password, email address, payment information, preferred service, preferred service provider, electronic wallet address, and health information including allergies, skin, and hair condition. It can be included.

In addition, beauty information includes retail and e-commerce information for hair, nails, skin, cosmetics, waxing and hair removal, spa, tanning, eye care and eyewear, plastic surgery, tattoos and body art, and tools for providing educational information and services. may include.

Here, the user terminal 10 is a communication capable desktop computer, a laptop computer, a laptop, a smart phone, a tablet PC, a mobile phone, Smart watch, smart glass, e-book reader, PMP (portable multimedia player), portable game console, navigation device, digital camera, DMB (digital multimedia broadcasting) player, It may be a digital audio recorder, digital audio player, digital video recorder, digital video player, PDA (Personal Digital Assistant), etc. Meanwhile, there may be at least one user terminal 10, and the terminal used by the service provider to provide the service can be expressed as a 'provider terminal', and the expression for the provider terminal varies depending on the entity using it, so no special mention is made. Unless there is one, the terminal used by the user may be a user terminal, and the terminal used by the service provider may be a provider terminal, and may be expressed as a user terminal for convenience.

A user who wishes to use an integrated beauty service can select and use at least one beauty service through the user terminal 10. Here, use includes at least one of beauty service reservations, purchases, consultations, service recommendations, reviews and ratings, virtual experiences, personalized services, re-use benefits, point accumulation, payment, online tutorials, subscription services, and location-based services. This may include use.

For example, the user may use the user terminal 10 to select a supply service, check beauty information provided by the supply service, and then use the supply service. At this time, in order to receive the supply service through the user terminal 10, the user can check the pricing policy provided by the server 100 and send a price proposal message to the service provider through the price proposal UI.

As an example, the user can use the user terminal 10 to make a reservation at a beauty salon for hair care among the services provided. At this time, the user can use the user terminal 10 to check the available services provided by the beauty salon, check the pricing policy, and then propose prices for the available services using the price proposal UI. At this time, there may be one or more service providers providing provision services for the server 100, and the service provider may check the user's proposed price and accept the provision services for the user. Additionally, but not limited to this, the service provider may actively suggest prices for the supplied services to the user.

Meanwhile, there may be more than one user making a price proposal for the same supply service, and the service provider can provide the service by checking the user's proposed price and selectively accepting the supply service for the user.

Figure 2 is an exemplary diagram to explain an example of using a supply service. Referring to FIG. 2, the server 100 may select a service provided through the user terminal 10 and provide available user interfaces 210, 220, 230, and 240.

For example, the user can select the service he or she wants to use using the user interface provided by the server through the user terminal 10. As an example, the server 100 may provide a user interface 210 in which provided services are listed and the user can select them.

Additionally, the server 100 may provide a user interface 220 that lists services that can be provided around the user's location through the user terminal 10. Through this, users can use at least one service including hair, yoga, aesthetics, nail art, and makeup.

Additionally, the server 100 may provide a user interface 230 through which the user can check the usage details of the provided service. As an example, when a user makes a reservation at a hair salon and leaves a rating after receiving the corresponding service, the server 100 may provide a user interface that allows the user to check the reservation, provided service details, and usage rating, and the user can Through this, you can check your service usage history.

Additionally, the server 100 may provide a user interface 240 through the user terminal 10 through which users can edit or change their personal information and service settings. Through this, users can edit, change, and confirm their personal information, including their favorite stores, favorite designers, and preferred styles.

Additionally, the server 100 may provide at least one reward to the user when the supply service 100 provided through the server 100 is used. At this time, rewards may include discount coupons, free products, points, birthday rewards, and cashback. In addition, but not limited to this, if you provide an exclusive service with early access to a new product or service, or if you provide membership by level, you may provide an upgrade to a higher level.

In addition, points can be goods that users can use to use supply services at the same rate as cash or at a predetermined rate, and can be provided as virtual assets based on blockchain-based cryptocurrency.

Meanwhile, block chain refers to a collection of blocks connected one after another. Here, the block forming the chain may record/include confirmed transaction details transacted over a certain period of time through the corresponding blockchain platform. In order for a block recording transaction details before confirmation to be approved, a validity judgment by network participants must be performed.

A blockchain platform can refer to a blockchain ecosystem or blockchain network that operates based on proprietary blockchain technology. There are various types of blockchain platforms, such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, and Klaytn, and each blockchain platform has its own blockchain consensus protocol, interface, and block size. Some of the factors may be different. The transaction method used in each blockchain platform is cryptocurrency, and the method of creating and trading cryptocurrency can vary depending on the consensus protocol adopted by each blockchain platform.

Meanwhile, cryptocurrency may also be referred to as virtual currency, digital asset, digital currency, etc. Cryptocurrencies can be classified into coins and tokens. Coin refers to a cryptocurrency that is not dependent on other platforms and forms an independent ecosystem with its own mainnet. Examples include all platform coins such as Ethereum and EOS. In addition, even if it is not a platform coin, an independent cryptocurrency that is not dependent on another platform, such as Bitcoin or Ripple, can also be referred to as a coin.

Token refers to a cryptocurrency used to achieve an individual purpose on top of other platform coins. In other words, the token does not have its own mainnet and operates based on another platform. For example, Status Network Token (SNT), DP Token (Designer shop), etc. are tokens that operate based on the Ethereum platform (or the next-generation Ethereum platform (e.g., Ethereum 2.0)).

Ethereum is a public blockchain platform created by Vitalik Buterin on July 30, 2015, and represents the name of the platform's native currency (i.e. cryptocurrency). While Bitcoin focuses on payment and transaction-related systems, that is, functions as currency, Ethereum is based on blockchain, a core technology, and is used not only for transactions and payments, but also for contracts, SNS (Social Network Service), email, electronic voting, etc. It can provide scalability so that various applications can be operated transparently.

In other words, it is a platform that allows anyone to create and use not only a currency but also an analysis application (Decentralized Application) called dAPP. Ethereum's mainstream programming language is Solidity, a modified version of JavaScript, but it supports most major programming languages such as C++, Java, Python, and Go, providing versatility.

In addition, NFT (Non-Fungible Token), or 'non-fungible token', can refer to a blockchain-based token that cannot be exchanged or copied and thus has its own uniqueness and scarcity. As mentioned earlier, fungible cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin can be exchanged 1:1 because they each have the same value, whereas NFTs have values and characteristics that cannot be replaced by each being given a unique recognition value. .

By applying NFT technology, which inserts a unique serial number into assets that can be digitized, it is possible to create (digital) assets that cannot be copied, that is, only one in the world. Assets to which NFT can be applied include videos, images, sounds, It is very diverse, ranging from digital content such as text to artwork, collectibles, game items, phonemes, various products, virtual real estate, etc.

A plurality of nodes represents a plurality of servers, a plurality of devices, and a plurality of networks involved in the consensus protocol of transactions performed on a specific blockchain platform. For example, one node among a plurality of nodes may be configured based on at least one of a plurality of servers, a plurality of devices, or a plurality of networks. Or, as another example, one node among a plurality of nodes may mean one server, one device, or one network. Additionally, the range of multiple nodes may vary depending on the type of consensus protocol.

For example, the method of transferring a specific cryptocurrency used within a specific blockchain platform between blockchain transaction participation devices is as follows. Transaction information (or ID) to multiple nodes, the multiple nodes can approve the transaction through a predetermined consensus protocol method.

Once the transaction is approved, the specific amount of cryptocurrency can be transferred to the cryptocurrency electronic wallet. In other words, through a plurality of nodes, a block that records a decrease in the amount of a specific cryptocurrency in the electronic wallet of the sender of the cryptocurrency and an increase in the amount of a specific cryptocurrency in the electronic wallet of the recipient of the cryptocurrency is a blockchain platform. You can form a new blockchain by combining it with your existing blockchain.

Meanwhile, a smart contract refers to a digital contract method in which contract conditions are coded based on blockchain technology and the contract is implemented when the conditions are met. The method of entering into a smart contract between blockchain transaction participation devices based on a specific blockchain platform is as follows. For example, one of the blockchain transaction participation devices may be a server that supports a non-fungible token (NFT) transaction platform such as opensea.

When a device participating in a blockchain transaction requests the creation of a smart contract account with multiple nodes, the multiple nodes can create a smart contract account. At this time, other blockchain transaction participating devices that agree to the contract contents of the smart contract are multiple nodes, and the contract contents, the cryptocurrency electronic wallet address owned by the user of the blockchain transaction participating device, and the user of the other blockchain transaction participating device own By transmitting transaction information (or ID) including the cryptocurrency electronic wallet address, a smart contract can be concluded and the contents of the contract can be realized/executed.

For example, an NFT owned by a user is moved from the user's cryptocurrency electronic wallet to another user's cryptocurrency electronic wallet, and a certain amount of cryptocurrency owned by another user is transferred from the other user's cryptocurrency electronic wallet to the user's cryptocurrency. You can transfer it to your electronic wallet.

There are two types of consensus protocol methods by which multiple nodes constituting the blockchain platform prove blockchain transactions: Proof of Work (PoW) and Proof of Stake (PoS), for example. The types of protocol methods are not limited to the two types.

In the proof-of-work method, the block creator (or miner, verifier, etc.) applies a nonce value with random characteristics and a hash algorithm to transaction record information to meet the difficulty conditions presented in the block header of the blockchain. It refers to a consensus protocol that creates a block and receives compensation by detecting a satisfying hash value. Block creators can receive compensation, for example, in cryptocurrency used on the blockchain platform.

Blockchain platforms that use proof-of-work include, for example, Bitcoin and Ethereum. If the consensus protocol method of a specific blockchain platform is proof-of-work, the person who proves the blockchain transaction within the specific blockchain platform is the block generator (or miner, verifier, etc.), so multiple nodes will soon produce the block producer. It can mean.

The proof-of-stake method refers to a consensus protocol that differentially grants the authority to create blocks to each node depending on the amount of stake of each node in the blockchain platform at the time of agreement. The stake of each node may be proportional to the amount of cryptocurrency held by each node. Each node can receive a reward for the transaction fees generated by the blockchain platform according to the proportion of each node's contribution to block creation. Blockchain platforms that use the proof-of-stake method include, for example, Solana, ADA, and next-generation Ethereum (e.g., Ethereum 2.0). When the consensus protocol method of a specific blockchain platform is the proof-of-stake method, the object of proving blockchain transactions within a specific blockchain platform is all participants or nodes holding cryptocurrency used in the blockchain platform, so multiple nodes can mean all participants or nodes.

For example, the blockchain platform may be Ethereum, and the token type of the cryptocurrency may be ERC-20 (Ethereum Request for Comments 20). Additionally, the blockchain transaction participation device may be any of the user terminals described above.

For example, the server 100 may convert points provided to the user into cryptocurrency according to a predetermined ratio and control the cryptocurrency to be stored in the user's electronic wallet.

Additionally, the server 100 can protect the user's personal information by creating a smart contract for the service history provided by the user through the server 100 and storing it in the user's electronic wallet.

Figure 3 is a flowchart showing an example of a method of providing an integrated beauty service platform based on blockchain through mutual data transmission and reception between servers, service providers, and users.

Referring to Figure 3, a blockchain-based integrated beauty service platform providing server 300 (hereinafter referred to as 'server 300') communicates with the user 310 and the service provider 320 to provide services. How to do this is explained in detail. Here, for convenience of explanation, it is expressed as a user 310 and a service provider 320, but the user 310 and the service provider 320 communicate with the server 300 through a wired or wireless network using at least one user terminal. it means.

In addition, wired and wireless communication methods include Bluetooth communication, BLE (Bluetooth Low Energy) communication, Near Field Communication (NFC), WLAN communication, Zigbee communication, Infrared Data Association (IrDA) communication, It may include various communication methods such as WFD (Wi-Fi Direct) communication, UWB (ultra-wideband) communication, Ant+ communication, WIFI communication, and RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) communication, but is not limited thereto.

The service provider 320 may register the service it wishes to provide to the server 300. For example, the service provider 320 may use the provider terminal to transmit supply service information such as service name, service description, business hours, price, service provision time, and company name to the server 300, and the server ( 300) can register it.

The user 310 can check the list of supplied services registered in the server 300 through the user terminal and use the service by selecting the company name and service name. As an example, the user 310 can check the list of available services, prices and descriptions, and reserve the supplied service. At this time, the server 300 receives and stores the user's reservation request, transmits the reservation request to the service provider, and then sends a notification to the user so that the user 310 can change or cancel the reservation and informs the user about the service. You can grant permission to write reviews.

The user 310 can pay for the service provided by the service provider 320 through the server 300 using the user terminal. For example, the server 300 may provide payment information (e.g., account number, credit card payment method information, ^3rd party payment platform) for the supplied service to the user terminal so that the user 310 can proceed with payment. Payment for the supplied service can be made by providing a payment form through encryption such as HTTPS.

When payment is completed, the server 300 may provide the user 310 with a reward for the payment. Here, rewards may include discount coupons, free products, points, birthday rewards, and cashback, as explained earlier. In addition, but not limited to this, if you provide an exclusive service with early access to a new product or service, or if you provide membership by level, you may provide an upgrade to a higher level.

In addition, points can be goods that users can use to use supply services at the same rate as cash or at a predetermined rate, and can be provided as virtual assets based on blockchain-based cryptocurrency.

The server 300 may settle the service fee to the service provider 320. At this time, the server 300 may provide the service provider 320 with a predetermined percentage of the service fee. For example, the server 300 may generate a payment settlement form according to a payment settlement request from the service provider 320, check the account information of the service provider 320, and settle the payment to the service provider. Payment may be made through a payment service provider.

In addition, the service fee may be automatically settled at a preset point in time (e.g., the 1st of every month, etc.) by the server 300 without a request from the service provider 320, and the usage fee may be automatically reflected at the time of settlement. There is no limitation and you can pay a usage fee according to a separately determined rate. For example, you can pay a predetermined amount (e.g., 1 million won per month, etc.) as a monthly service fee.

Meanwhile, the server 300 may generate and issue an NFT for the service provider at the request of the service provider 320. For example, an NFT that can represent the service provider 320, such as the character, BI, company name, etc. of the service provider 320, can be created and issued. At this time, the user 310 can pay a fee to the service provider 320 by purchasing or renting the issued NFT.

Additionally, the server 300 can relay NFT transactions and settle a predetermined fee.

Meanwhile, the user 310 and the service provider 320 can request settlement of the tokens they own from the server 300, and the server 300 settles the tokens to the user 310 and the service provider 320 according to a predetermined ratio. Costs may be paid accordingly. For example, the token may be a utility token based on Klaytn (KCT), the user 310 can collect tokens as rewards for payment and NFT transactions, and the service provider 320 may receive compensation for providing services, Tokens can be collected through NFT transactions.

In addition, but not limited to this, the user 310 and the service provider 320 can directly mine tokens through user terminals including PCs and mobile terminals, and the mined tokens are distributed to the user 310 and the service provider 320. ) can be stored in an electronic wallet.

Meanwhile, the server 100 may synthesize the user's image with the result of the supplied service, generate an image after using the supplied service, and provide it to the user. In other words, the server 100 receives an image containing body parts necessary for the user's beauty from the user terminal, analyzes the characteristics of the received image, and synthesizes the expected value of the service provided into the image containing the user's body parts. It can be provided to the user.

For example, referring again to FIG. 1, when the user selects a hair beauty service as a service, the server 100 generates an image that combines the user's various hairstyles with the user's face image. It can be provided to the user terminal 10. Through this, the user can increase service satisfaction by checking the appearance of the service before receiving the service.

For example, the server 100 receives the user's video from the user terminal 10, and each frame collected from the user's video uses a machine learning model trained for body part recognition, such as a CNN (Convolution Neural Network). It can be processed using For example, OpenCV, an open source computer vision library, can be used for face and feature detection.

Once the user's body part is recognized, the server 100 can segment the user's body part (eg, hair) in each frame and create a mask that covers only the body part (eg, hair) of the image. At this time, the generated mask can be used to correct and apply body parts (e.g., hair) of the user rather than the rest of the image.

After the user selects a service to be provided through the user terminal 10, such as a style such as haircut or dyeing, the server 100 uses a mask for each frame of the video to display the expected form of the selected service only to the pixels within the mask. It can be applied. The composite image generated in this way can be provided as AR (Augmented Reality) through the user terminal 10.

Meanwhile, the server 100 may provide an alarm about when the user will be provided with at least one beauty service through the user terminal 10.

For example, if the service provided by the service provider is hair care, the server 100 may check the user's hair length (L), hair type (T), hair shape (Q), annual dyeing frequency (F), and dyeing intensity. (I), a service provision timing notification informing the user terminal 10 of a schedule for visiting a beauty salon can be generated and sent based on the hair growth rate (Gr) and dyeing fade rate (Fr).

For example, the expected hair length can be calculated through Equation 1 below.

here, is the predicted hair length at time t, is the current hair length, may be the hair growth rate, and t may be time (e.g., days/week). For example, if the user visits more than twice at 30-day intervals, and the hair length is trimmed to 20cm during the first visit, and then reaches 21.5cm during the second visit 30 days later, the hair is considered to have grown 1.5cm over 30 days. It can be estimated, and the user's hair growth rate can be calculated as '0.5mm/day'.

Additionally, if the user's first visit or if the user's hair length information is not available, the average hair growth rate (e.g., '0.5 mm/day') may be reflected.

Accordingly, the current hair length A user whose hair growth rate (Gr) is 20 cm and the hair growth rate (Gr) is 0.5 mm/day grows 20 mm of hair to a total hair length of 22 cm after 40 days, and the server 100 determines the current hair length. If it has grown beyond a predetermined rate (e.g., 10%), an alarm can be generated and sent to the user to provide beauty services.

Additionally, the server 100 can estimate the user's hair dye fade rate using Equation 2 below and generate an alarm notifying when to provide a new hair dye.

Here, D(t) is the staining intensity estimated at time t, D0 is the initial staining intensity, and Fr is the dyeing fade rate. For example, the server 100 calculates the dyeing intensity of the user's hair color before and after dyeing through RGB analysis of the first user's hair color photographed from the user terminal 10, and estimates the user's dyeing fade rate. You can create notifications for users. As an example, a user with a hair color of (R1, G1, B1) = (50, 40, 30) has red with (R2, G2, B2) = (240, 10, 20) as the first user's hair color. Assuming that dyeing is performed, the dyeing intensity (D0) can be calculated as follows.

At this time, if the second user's hair color photographed from the user terminal 10 after a predetermined period has elapsed (e.g., 1 week, etc.) is (R3, G3, B3) = (210, 20, 30), the predetermined period After this has elapsed, the user's dyeing intensity can be calculated as follows.

At this time, the server 100 can calculate the dyeing fade rate Fr through Equation 2.

Accordingly, the user's dyeing fade rate is calculated to be 0.179 per week, and the server 100 notifies the user to perform dyeing again if the user's dyeing intensity fades below a predetermined rate (e.g., 70% of D0). can be created.

For example, by reflecting the Fr calculated in Equation 5 in Equation 2, it is possible to determine when dyeing should be performed again as follows.

Therefore, according to RGB analysis, the time when 70% of the user's initial dyeing intensity (D0) is reached is 3.03 weeks after the date of dyeing, and the server 100 informs the user of reducing the dyeing intensity and informing the user of re-dying. You can create and send notifications.

For example, the server 100 may grant points to users and service providers based on the degree of service platform use and provide tokens at a predetermined rate in proportion to the points received. For example, for users and service providers, points may be awarded in proportion to the cost paid by the user for the service used and the cost of the service provided by the service provider. For example, if service provider K provides a 'hair dyeing' service for 100,000 won and the user uses it, the user and the service provider can each score 100,000 points, but are not limited to this, and a predetermined normalization factor, such as the user By applying 100 to the user and 10,000 to the service provider, the user can obtain 10,000 points and the service provider can obtain 10 points.

To this end, the server 100 may apply a conversion factor (Cf) for score-token conversion to provide to users and service providers. The conversion coefficient is intended to be converted into the number of tokens according to a conversion coefficient that is a predetermined ratio to the amount paid by the user by using the service or the supply amount of the service supplied. For example, the conversion coefficient is 100 and the user receives a fee for using the service. If 100,000 won is paid as a cost, the basic token (T0) given to the user is This can be.

Additionally, dynamic variables (Am, Active Modifier) are It may vary depending on the value of A dynamic variable is set greater than 1 to encourage more usage if is below a predetermined threshold (e.g. 10 or 100 tokens/supplier), In order to control the token supply, dynamic variables can be set greater than 0 and less than 1. Additionally, the dynamic variable may be set to 1 if it is equal to a predetermined threshold. Here, the total transaction volume may refer to the total amount of tokens provided to users and service providers.

Accordingly, the tokens granted to users and service providers can be calculated according to the equation below.

here, is the total tokens acquired, T0 is the basic token acquired, is a quality factor and is calculated by dividing the rating for the supplied service by the maximum rating, is the frequency factor, which is the total number of times the supplied service was used during a predetermined period (e.g. 1 month) divided by a predetermined normalization factor (e.g. 100); is a loyalty coefficient that determines whether the user continues to use the same service provider's services, and refers to the number of additional tokens (e.g. 100 tokens/time) paid according to a predetermined amount if the user continues to use the same service provider's services. do.

According to one embodiment, the user pays 100,000 won in return for using the service, the conversion coefficient is 100, the rating for the supplied service is 4.5 points, the maximum rating is 5 points, and the quality factor is 4.5/5, As the supplied service is used 120 times in one month, the frequency factor normalized through a normalization factor (e.g. 100) is 120/100, and assuming that the user is using the service for the first time, the royalty coefficient is 0, and the total number of users is 20,000. There are 1,000 service providers and the dynamic variable is 20,000/1,000=20, which can be set to 0.5 to control token supply. At this time, the token acquired by the user can be determined as shown in the equation below.

In other words, the user was able to acquire the first 10,000 tokens based on the conversion coefficient for the amount used, but can acquire 5,600 tokens according to dynamic variables, quality factors, and frequency factors, and through this, the server 100 can obtain the number of tokens. Distribution volume can be controlled. Meanwhile, in the same case, if the user continues to use the same service provider's services, additional tokens may be given according to the loyalty coefficient (Lb), and the amount of additional tokens paid according to the loyalty coefficient may be predetermined as shown in the table below. .

Number of supplies Royalty Coefficient Additional token payout amount One One 100 2 1.2 120 3 1.44 144 4 1.73 173 ?? (number of supplies)*1.2 Royalty coefficient*100

However, it is not limited to this, and the loyalty coefficient may be adjusted in consideration of dynamic variables according to the token distribution volume of the server 100, or may be adjusted according to the request of the service provider.

Meanwhile, when a user stakes tokens, the server 100 may provide a reward for staking according to the equation below.

At this time, is the number of tokens obtained as a reward for staking, is the total number of tokens held, refers to the bonus rate provided as compensation for the tokens held. For example, the total tokens held by User A is 100,000, 5% per month, is 0.5 can be calculated as follows.

Therefore, when User A holds 100,000 tokens, he can obtain 2,500 tokens as a staking reward after one month.

In this way, a healthy token distribution ecosystem can be rescued by adjusting the amount of tokens granted to users and service providers according to dynamic variables.
