Description

A business system related to environmental protection through payment and exchange of consumers' actual use of blockchain-based virtual assets

The present invention relates to a business system related to environmental protection through actual use payment and exchange of blockchain-based cryptocurrency (or virtual asset). Specifically, consumers use points or designated cryptocurrencies obtained through cryptocurrency token swaps (exchange with other blockchain cryptocurrencies) and purchase activities on the platform, and the platform uses the carbon credit business, etc. based on the consumer’s point usage history. It relates to a system for carrying out environmental protection related business.

In particular, consumers can participate in environmental protection projects only by using blockchain cryptocurrency (virtual asset) tokens. It relates to an environment protection-related business system that can form a virtuous cycle structure consisting of reward distribution and consumer re-participation.

Currency that does not exist in real things such as banknotes or coins and remains in the form of information on a computer or the like and is traded only over the Internet is collectively referred to as virtual currency or virtual asset. A virtual currency (or virtual asset) is also referred to as a virtual currency or the like according to the manner in which it is implemented, or according to a policy or classification criteria.

Virtual currency may be roughly divided into digital currency and cryptocurrency. Electronic money has the characteristics of a centralized currency controlled by a government, a central bank, or a specific issuing entity. On the other hand, cryptocurrencies, or cryptocurrencies, differ from regular money or electronic money issued by the government or central bank, in which rules and values are determined according to the rules set by the person who first devised them. In addition, there is a feature that the government or central bank does not manage transaction details and is distributed based on blockchain technology. That is, cryptocurrency is accompanied by encryption technology in the issuance and transaction approval process of money, and has characteristics as a decentralized currency.

Blockchain technology or blockchain security technology is a distributed data storage technology that stores data in blocks, connects them in a chain, and replicates and stores them in numerous computers at the same time. known as technology. Transaction details are disclosed to all participants in a transaction rather than a centralized server, and each time a transaction occurs, data is not forged or falsified through information sharing and collation between participants. Due to the above advantages, blockchain technology is being used in virtual currency, especially cryptocurrency.

In addition, cryptocurrencies can be largely divided into coins or tokens. In general, when an independent blockchain network is owned, it is referred to as a coin, and ERC20-based cryptocurrency without owning an independent blockchain network is sometimes classified as a token, but the terms coin and token used in this specification are not useful and are mixed.

A representative cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, which was first developed in 2009, and there are more than 2,000 known cryptocurrencies. However, as mentioned above, the government does not guarantee the value or payment of cryptocurrencies because the government or central bank is not involved in the transaction history and is circulated based on blockchain technology. As a result, cryptocurrencies have high volatility in value and have limitations in that they are difficult to be used in actual transactions.

For example, according to cryptocurrency analytics firm Longhash, more than 1,000 of the 2,500 known cryptocurrencies have been reported to have been culled. The reason that accounted for the highest proportion was analyzed that users did not find the reason for the existence of cryptocurrencies. In other words, cryptocurrency is not used and it is difficult to expect steady participation of users only by its function as a means of accumulating assets.

Meanwhile, in Korea, the amended 「Act on the Reporting and Use of Specific Financial Transaction Information, etc.」 to foster virtual asset transactions such as virtual currency, including cryptocurrency, is about to go into effect on March 25, 2021. The above amendment law has the meaning that the concept of virtual assets is specified by law for the first time in Korea and is included in the subject of regulation. Accordingly, it is expected that the virtual asset market and trading system such as cryptocurrency will undergo a major overhaul, and actual transactions using cryptocurrency are expected to occur actively.

Korean Patent No. 10-1543222, financial transaction relay system linked to phone number and its processing method

As described above, it may not be an exaggeration to say that the survival of virtual currency, including cryptocurrency, depends on the steady practical use of cryptocurrency. In particular, it is expected that the volatility of cryptocurrency value will be resolved by making users recognize the potential inherent value embodied in virtual and intangible currency from users' interest in virtual currency and actual transactions using it, rather than applying policy regulations.

However, the existing virtual currency is only used as a means of speculation or asset accumulation. This can be found in the reverse circulation structure, which is difficult to use virtual currency due to volatility of virtual currency and leads to loss of value due to undervaluation of virtual currency. Therefore, the inventors of the present invention propose the present invention, focusing on the fact that a user can develop a sustainable virtual currency by arousing a need to use virtual currency by a user.

That is, the problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a business system that can induce actual use of cryptocurrencies and the like.

Another problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a transaction method using an open market platform that can induce actual use of cryptocurrency, etc.

Advantages and features of the present invention and methods of achieving them will become apparent with reference to the embodiments described below in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments disclosed below, but will be implemented in various different forms, and only the embodiments allow the disclosure of the present invention to be complete, and those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention pertains. It is provided to fully inform the person of the scope of the invention, and the present invention is only defined by the scope of the claims. That is, various changes may be made to the embodiments presented by the present invention. It should be understood that the embodiments described below are not intended to limit the embodiments, and include all modifications, equivalents, and substitutions thereto.

Unless otherwise defined, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein may be used with the meaning commonly understood by those of ordinary skill in the art to which the present invention belongs. In addition, terms defined in a commonly used dictionary are not to be interpreted ideally or excessively unless clearly defined in particular.

In this specification, 'and/or' includes each and every combination of one or more of the mentioned items. The singular also includes the plural, unless the phrase specifically states otherwise. As used herein, 'comprises' and/or 'comprising' does not exclude the presence or addition of one or more other components in addition to the stated components. Numerical ranges indicated using 'to' indicate numerical ranges including the values stated before and after them as the lower and upper limits, respectively. 'About' or 'approximately' means a value or numerical range within 20% of the value or numerical range recited thereafter.

Prior to the detailed description of the present invention, it will be described by supplementing the background art to which the present invention is proposed.

The concept of 'sustainable growth', which states that sustainable economic growth is impossible without environmental conservation, is emerging as a global task, and carbon neutrality has recently emerged as a very important issue for governments and companies in major countries around the world. Carbon neutrality is a kind of international agreement to make the emission of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide emitted by individuals, companies and organizations to zero.

The international community's efforts to reduce the six greenhouse gases, including carbon dioxide, the main culprit of environmental destruction, began in earnest with the 1992 Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC)'s carbon credit system. In addition, since the Paris Agreement that took effect in 2016, 121 countries around the world have joined the '2050 Carbon Neutral Target Climate Alliance', which has become a hot topic around the world.

The carbon credit trading system is a system that allows the country to pre-allocate carbon emissions for each company in order to achieve greenhouse gas reduction, and then purchase or sell credits on the carbon credit exchange according to the amount of emissions. If a company wants to emit more carbon than the allocated carbon emission, it must purchase carbon credits equal to the excess emission. On the other hand, if a company emits less carbon than its allocated carbon footprint, it can sell its remaining emissions.

On December 7, 2020, the Korean government announced the strengthening of the carbon-neutral institutional foundation along with the low-carbon economic structure, the creation of a promising low-carbon industrial ecosystem, and the transition to a carbon-neutral society. Accordingly, Korean companies are expected to be subject to increasingly strict carbon emission regulations, and it is expected that most companies will run out of carbon emission rights in the near future.

In addition to these carbon emission issues, environmental issues will become very important technical challenges in the future. In relation to the environment, three main environmental issues will be addressed herein: emissions and energy production, and environmental pollution from food waste.

First of all, regarding the exhaust gas problem, the International Commission on Clean Transportation (ICCT) of the United States has published a study result that diesel vehicle emissions are the main cause of premature death due to air pollution. Toxic particulates contained in exhaust gases not only threaten human health, but also pose a threat to the ecosystem due to greenhouse gas components such as nitrogen, water vapor, carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide. Also, according to the US Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS), it has been reported that benzene increases the likelihood of causing leukemia.

Second, with regard to energy production, fossil fuels account for about 70% of global electricity generation. When fossil fuels are used, nitrogen oxides (NOx) and sulfur oxides (SOx), which contain carbon dioxide and impurities, may be the main substances remaining after energy is used. If they are released into the atmosphere without additional post-treatment, they can cause major environmental problems, such as:

That is, nitrogen oxides and sulfur oxides generated after combustion of fossil fuels are pointed out as serious causative agents of bronchial asthma. In addition, carbon dioxide is contained in soot emitted from factories and thermal power plants that use fossil fuels, and exhaust gases from transportation means such as automobiles and aircraft. Since carbon dioxide is more difficult to remove than nitrogen oxide or sulfur oxide, it is emitted into the atmosphere as it is.

Lastly, with respect to the third food waste problem, most of the food waste has a decomposing property, so it was treated by mixing compost with manure or landfilling in the past. However, in the process of decomposing food waste, there is a problem that odor is generated as well as a source of various pathogenic pests.

In particular, in recent years, as the amount of food waste is gradually increasing, environmental problems related to food waste disposal are emerging as a social issue, not to mention economic losses due to food waste. This problem is more serious in developed countries or cities with high population density.

The three environmental problems presented above are merely exemplary, and the environmental problems to be solved by the present invention are not limited thereto. Efforts to solve environmental problems are not a one-time thing, but rather a problem that everyone who shares the environment should participate in in their daily lives. Accordingly, the present invention proposes an environmental protection system that induces members of the environmental community, led by consumers, to naturally participate in environmental improvement problems in their daily lives and further exert efforts for environmental improvement.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a schematic diagram of an environmental protection business system 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to FIG. 1 , the environmental protection business system 10 according to the present embodiment includes a cryptocurrency system 100 and a trading platform subject 200 , and may further include a third institution 300 .

The cryptocurrency system 100 may include a system for generating, trading and/or distributing cryptocurrency based on blockchain technology. In the trading platform entity 200 , a plurality of vendors 210 and 220 may enter the trading platform entity 200 and sell their products to consumers 260 , 270 , 280 .

In addition, the trading platform entity 200 may be linked with the third institution 300 that is active for environmental protection. Specifically, it may be the United Nations (UN) that oversees the carbon emission rights project. The cryptocurrency system 100 , consumers 260 , 270 , 280 , and vendors 210 , 220 may contribute to environmental protection through the third institution 300 through the transaction platform entity 200 .

FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram of the cryptocurrency system 100 of FIG. 1 .

Referring further to FIG. 2 , the cryptocurrency system 100 may include a block chain network 130 and a cryptocurrency server 110 , and may further include a plurality of user terminals 120 .

Blockchain is a chain-type link-based distributed data storage technology in which small pieces of data called 'blocks' are created based on the P2P method. Distributed data stored in the block chain cannot be arbitrarily modified by anyone, and anyone can view the results of the change, so it has the characteristics of anonymity and openness. The blockchain is a change list that records continuously changing data to all participating nodes, and is designed to prevent arbitrary manipulation by the operator of the distributed node.

The conventional centralized ledger management system has a problem that data manipulation is possible if the central server is hacked. Of course, it is possible to invest a huge amount of money in the security of the central server, but if the central server is hacked once, it can cause great damage. As seen in the article https://news.sbs.co.kr/news/endPage.do?news_id=N1004957742, in order to defend against hackers' attacks, a large amount of money must be invested in the security of the central server. The disadvantage of the centralized ledger management system is that it is not easy to even recover the damage.

On the other hand, since blockchain technology distributes and stores the ledger in each node, even if a specific node is hacked and the ledger is manipulated, the manipulated ledger is discarded through a verification process that compares it with the ledger of all nodes. security can be obtained. This is because it is easy to hack each node, but it is difficult to hack more than 51% of the nodes at the same time. Therefore, in a blockchain, the more nodes that participate in the network, the higher the security. To this end, in the blockchain, coins can be provided as a reward to nodes participating in the network.

At this time, there are PoW, PoS, PoI, PoC, PoA, etc. POW is an abbreviation of Proof Of Work, which means "Proof of Work". The block of the block chain is created with the block hash value calculated by the hash algorithm. This hash algorithm is a method of finding the block hash value with the computing power of the computer (CPU, GPU, FPGA, ASIC) and receiving coins according to the contribution. . Bitcoin, the first cryptocurrency, is being mined with the PoW method, and many coins have been mined with the POW method since then. Since PoW uses high computing power and power, it has low efficiency and has disadvantages in that computing power, time, and electricity are wasted for mining. Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE), etc. are using the PoW method.

PoS is an abbreviation of Proof Of Stake, which means "Proof of Stake". It is a mining method created to solve the disadvantage of energy waste of PoW. It is a method of creating blocks according to the properties of coin holding (retained amount, holding period, etc.) and distributing coins according to their contribution. The PoS algorithm is different for each coin, but the payment standards are different, such as limiting the holding period of asset coins or paying interest only to holders of a certain amount or more. The disadvantages of the PoS method are that the amount of circulation decreases because people only want to hold coins to receive interest, and the structure in which the more coins they hold, the more power they have. Qtum Coin (Qtum), Dash (DASH), Risk (LSK), Bitshare (BTS), Factum (FCT), Next (NXT), Omni Layer (OMNI), Cloth (PIVX), etc. use the PoS method. are doing

DPoS stands for Delegated Proof Of Stake, which stands for “Delegated Proof of Stake”. This is a mining method created to solve the shortcomings of PoS. Instead of all nodes in the coin network generating blocks, it delegates authority to 'upper nodes' elected by voting to take charge of block generation and receive delegation incentives. Through delegation, the problem of coin circulation of the existing PoS was solved and democracy was realized through representation. However, this method has the disadvantage of being limited as a 'non-decentralized' coin because the decision-making of the coin is centralized and controlled. Ark, Rise, LSK, Steem, EOS, etc. are using the DPoS method.

PoI is an abbreviation of Proof Of Importance, which means “Proof of Importance”. Like PoS, if you put coins in your wallet, you receive the same reward (interest), but in addition, more interest coins are paid according to the network’s contribution according to the coin transaction volume or transaction amount. Nem (NEM) and VeChain (VEN) are using the PoI method.

PoC is an abbreviation of Proof Of Capacity or Proof Of hdd Capacity, which means “proof of capacity”. PoC is a method in which the remaining capacity of the hard disk is divided into certain units and shared on the network, and coins are paid according to the performance. Therefore, the larger the hard disk capacity, the more coins can be paid. Burst, Storage (STORJ), and Sia (SC) are using the PoC method.

There are two types of PoA. One is the abbreviation of Proof Of Access, which means "Proof of Access". It is a method of receiving bonus coins by activities such as promotion, recommender, community participation, timely reimbursement, bug report, etc. on social media, and SALT is using the PoA method. Another one is the abbreviation of Proof Of Authority, which means "Proof of Authority" or "Proof of Authority". To compensate for the shortcomings of PoS and centrally control, the idleness of a transaction is checked by an authorized account (node) called an authorized identity or validator, and blocks are maintained and created, and so on. This method is suitable for private blockchain as it is difficult to disclose trusted nodes to the network. Stargram Coin (SGC) is using the PoA method.

PoB is an abbreviation of Proof Of Believability, which means "Proof of Trust". In a form developed from PoS, in addition to the stake holding the coin, it is a method that takes into account the trust index (believability) of the node and receives the right to verify the transaction at the node with the highest trust and an incentive for verification. Trust is measured by donations or contribution activities within the community of the coin. After a certain period of time, the reliability index is destroyed to prevent monopolization of transaction verification so that it is not centralized like POS. The IOST coin is using the PoB method.

The blockchain network 130 may include nodes and clients. Nodes can keep transaction history, approve transactions, and perform distributed consensus. The client can create a transaction and perform the function of checking the transaction details. From a user's point of view, a node of the blockchain network 130 performs a back-end function of a general service, and a client can perform a function as a client.

A node in a blockchain can have two types of databases. The transaction database can keep all records about the correct transaction, and the application database can apply the stored transaction to the application. A transaction database can be constructed through a structure in which blocks called blockchain are connected, and each block can contain an ordered list of transactions, and can be linked according to the order of time.

A transaction through the block chain network 130 may mean a transaction of cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency transactions can operate by updating the database stored by nodes on a P2P network in which all nodes have the same network topology. For example, in the case of cryptocurrency remittance, if a transaction is generated and propagated to the block chain network 130, the node generating the block can collect the transaction and store it in the block. In addition, by applying the corresponding transactions, it can update its own balance database and propagate the block to other nodes. Other nodes can update their balance database and store blocks according to the propagated block data. As the balance database and transaction database of all nodes are updated, the transfer of cryptocurrency can be completed.

The cryptocurrency server 110 may be implemented as a server corresponding to a computer or program that provides cryptocurrency trading and exchange. The cryptocurrency system 100 may be connected to an external system and the like through the cryptocurrency server 110 . For example, it is connected to a payment system for charging cryptocurrency, an authentication system for user authentication, or a system for swapping cryptocurrency tokens or coins to provide various services for cryptocurrency trading and exchange.

In addition, the cryptocurrency server 110 may provide a service related to a transaction between cryptocurrency and exchange of cryptocurrency into real money through a web page or an application of a smartphone or PC. To this end, the cryptocurrency server 110 may be connected to the blockchain network 130 and process transactions between a plurality of user terminals 120 .

The user terminal 120 applies for a remittance by designating a counterparty based on the possessed cryptocurrency and confirms the result, or applies for a swap with another type of virtual currency, for example, cyber money or cyber point used in a specific platform, and the It may correspond to a computing device capable of confirming the result. The user terminal 120 may be implemented as a smart phone, a notebook computer, or a PC, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The user terminal 120 may be connected to the blockchain network 130 . In addition, the user terminal 120 may operate as a block chain node constituting the block chain network 130 . The user terminal 120 may store the cryptocurrency obtained through mining by Proof of Stake (PoS) in the cryptocurrency wallet among the various methods described above. Proof of Stake is a decentralized consensus algorithm that can operate in such a way that the right to create blocks is granted according to the stake of cryptocurrency held. In other words, the proof-of-stake can be applied even under the condition of a terminal with limited computing resources because it acquires the right to create a block through its stake rather than wasting computing power. Also, the generated blocks may include an asset proof list in which each verifier holds an asset, and the block with the largest sum of assets in the asset proof list may be agreed as a valid block.

In this embodiment, the virtual currency created, traded and/or circulated through the block chain may be New Earth Coin (NEC) whose white pater was published in the second half of 2020, but the present invention is limited thereto. of course it won't. In addition, although the method of paying the coin has been described based on PoS, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited thereto.

As will be described later, there can be three major methods of acquiring Newus Coins. The first is the purchase of Newus Coins using cash, the second is the swap to Newus Coins using other cryptocurrencies, and finally, the supply of Newus Coins as a reward through purchase activity in the trading platform server 200 .

3 to 8 are user interface screens for charging and withdrawing G-Point in the transaction platform main body 200 of FIG. 1 .

The trading platform entity 200 is an open market platform. An open market platform refers to a virtual space where multiple sellers and consumers can buy and sell goods online. For example, Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/) in the United States or Alibaba (https://korean.alibaba.com/) in China are representative examples of open market platforms. In Korea, Coupang and Auction , Gmarket, and 11st are providing open market platform services.

The trading platform entity 200 may connect a plurality of retailers 210 and 220 and consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . The consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 through the transaction platform entity 200 may purchase goods from any of the stores 210 , 220 . The consideration used to purchase the item may be money, cyber money, or cryptocurrency. In this embodiment, the cyber money is cyber money referred to as g point, and the cryptocurrency may be Newus Coin, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

That is, in the transaction platform main body 200 , consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 can directly use cyber money or cash, as well as Newus Coin, which is a cryptocurrency, for purchase activities.

When consumers 260, 270, and 280 purchase G-points, when converting G-points from money, and when swapping G-points from Newus Coin, the conversion or swap ratio may be different. For example, when using 10,000 won in money, it may be converted into points of value corresponding to 10,000 won, for example, 10,000 g points. On the other hand, when swapping using one Newus coin having a value of 10,000 won in money, it can be converted into Gpoints having a value of 10,000 won or more, for example, 12,000 Gpoints. This can promote the use of Newus Coin.

In another embodiment, it may be possible to convert the newus coin into a Z point in consideration of the price change. For example, 24 hours a day may be set to 4 to 12 sections, and the market price in any section may be announced in advance. For example, if a price change of 9,000 won to 9,800 won occurs in the first section, the average value of the market price of the first section is applied in the second section, and based on this, it can be converted into a point during the time of the second section. have. In other words, it can be used as a standard for G-point exchange or exchange activity based on the use value of each section of Newus Coin, which has volatility. In addition, consumers (buyers) can receive greater discounts and rewards when paying with Newus Coin or G-Point, which can be more advantageous.

The setting of the number of sections may be determined by changing social factors. For example, in a time of high volatility, the time of one section may be shortened and the number of sections may be divided more, whereas in a time of low volatility, the time of one section may be lengthened and the number of sections may be relatively small.

3 is a user screen when consumers (260, 270, 280) charge the point. Referring to FIG. 3 , the name of the trading platform subject 200 may be Gpoint Mall. G-Point, the cyber money used in the G-Point Mall, can be charged in two ways. One is direct deposit and the other is New Earth Coin (NEC).

When the consumer (260, 270, 280) selects deposit without a bankbook, a virtual dedicated account can be issued and G-points can be charged by directly depositing cash. At this time, the exchange ratio between G-point and deposit amount is 1:1. As described above, if you deposit 10,000 won, you can recharge 10,000 G-points.

If the consumer (260, 270, 280) chooses to swap G-Points with Newus Coins, they can recharge G-Points with Newus Coins, a virtual currency. You can transfer Newus Coin from the Newus Coin wallet address of the consumer (260, 270, 280) to the wallet address of the Gpoint Mall, and recharge the GPoint by the amount transferred.

At this time, in order to promote the use of the Newus Coin, the G-Point Mall, the trading platform subject 200, may provide additional benefits to the consumers 260, 270, and 280. For example, the exchange ratio between Newus Coin and G-point is 1:1.2 instead of 1:1, so you can pay additional G-points. In addition, although FIG. 3 shows that the additionally paid G-points are fixed at 20%, the ratio of the additionally paid G-points may vary according to the consumer's grade in the G-point mall. For example, starting from 10%, up to 15% or more, and up to 20%, depending on the grade of the consumer (260, 270, 280), G-points can be differentially charged and additionally charged. Through this, it is possible to promote the use of Newus Coin and promote eco-friendly activities of consumers (260, 270, 280) through G-Point Mall.

For reference, considering that the exchange value of virtual currency fluctuates every moment by exchange, when charging G-points using Newus Coin, it is very important to determine at what point in time the exchange value of a specific exchange is applied. Accordingly, in the example of FIG. 3, it is guided that G-points are charged based on the real-time Newus coin price of the ProBit Exchange. However, as described above, it is also possible to divide the 24 hours a day into several sections and apply the value based on the volatility of the Newus Coin in the section to the next section to use the Newus Coin for the time of the next section, of course. to be.

FIG. 4 is a user screen when consumers 260, 270, and 280 charge G-Point with Newus Coins on the screen of FIG. 3 . Referring to FIG. 4 , information received from consumers 260 , 270 , 280 and information provided to consumers 260 , 270 , 280 can be checked when charging G-Point with Newus Coin. For example, in order to take action when an error occurs in the charging process, information such as names, contact information, and e-mails of consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may be input. In addition, the wallet address and quantity of Newus Coins to be swapped with G-points can be input from consumers (260, 270, 280). In addition, although not shown in FIG. 4 , a wallet password may be additionally input from the user.

When the consumer (260, 270, 280) inputs such information, the real-time price of the Newus Coin to be used for G-point charging and the additionally paid G-point can be informed through the exchange rate. For example, one Newus coin currently has a value of 1.76 won, and if it is swapped with G-points, it can be further multiplied by 1.2 to provide 2.11 G-points to consumers (260, 270, 280). As such, by paying additional G-points, such as 1.2:1 instead of 1:1, the exchange ratio between G-Point and Newus Coin promotes the use of Newus Coin and encourages consumers (260, 270, 280) to protect the environment. It may induce you to pay more attention.

Similarly, in the case of withdrawing G-Point with money or swapping it with Newus Coin, the conversion or swap ratio may be different. For example, when 10,000 points are converted into money, it may be converted into money having a value corresponding to 10,000 points, for example, 10,000 won. On the other hand, if 10,000 G-points are converted into Newus Coins, just as if 1.2 times G-points were charged at the time of G-point charging, Newus Coins equal to the value divided by 1.2 can be paid at the time of withdrawal. . In other words, the exchange value of 1 Newus Coin = 1.2 G points can be applied equally to withdrawal. This can promote the use of Newus Coin.

5 is a user screen when consumers (260, 270, 280) or stores (210, 220) withdraw the point. Referring to FIG. 5 , G-Point can be withdrawn in two ways. One is to withdraw cash, and the other is to swap to Newus Coin.

When withdrawing in cash, the exchange ratio between G-points and withdrawal amount is 1:1, just like when charging. That is, as described above, if you withdraw 10,000 points in cash, you can withdraw an amount of 10,000 won. At this time, it is possible to withdraw only the G-points obtained for a fee, not the entire amount of the G-points currently held. For example, only G-points charged by the consumers 260, 270, and 280 by depositing cash or the G-points paid by the store companies 210 and 220 selling goods and vice versa can be withdrawn in cash.

FIG. 6 is a user screen in the case of withdrawing G-Point with Newus Coin on the screen of FIG. 5 . Referring to FIG. 6 , when swapping G-points with Newus coins, it can be seen that 1.2 G-points are exchanged for 1 Newus coin by inversely calculating that 1 Newus coin was exchanged at the rate of 1.2 G-points at the time of charging. Referring to FIG. 6 , information received from consumers 260 , 270 , 280 and information provided to consumers 260 , 270 , 280 can be checked when swapping G-points with Newus Coins. For example, in order to take action when an error occurs during the swap process, information such as names, contact information, and e-mails of consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may be input. In addition, the wallet address and quantity of the Newus coin to be swapped with the Newus coin can be input from the consumers (260, 270, 280). In addition, although not shown in FIG. 6 , a wallet password may be additionally input from the user.

When the consumer (260, 270, 280) inputs such information, the real-time price of the Newus coin to be used for G-point withdrawal and the exchange rate of G-point can be provided. For example, one Newus coin currently has a value of 1.76 won, and when G-point is swapped for a Newus coin, consumers (260, 270, 280) can be informed that it is withdrawn at an exchange rate of 1.2. As such, by withdrawing the exchange ratio between G-Point and Newus Coin as 1.2:1 instead of 1:1, the use of Newus Coin is promoted and consumers (260, 270, 280) are more interested in environmental protection. can do.

7 is a diagram for explaining a G-point management method of the trading platform subject 200 according to an embodiment of the present invention.

As can be seen from FIGS. 3 to 6 , since the management of G-points charged with cash and G-points charged with Newus Coin are different, the types of G-points can be managed by dividing them into several types in the G-Point Mall. Referring to FIG. 7 , the free G-points that consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 have received as a reward cannot be withdrawn and can only be used for the purpose of being exhausted at the G-Point Mall. In contrast, the paid points charged by the consumers (260, 270, 280) with cash are exchanged for cash at a 1:1 ratio. In other words, 1 Gpoint can be exchanged by charging or withdrawing it with the value of 1 won. In contrast, G-points charged by consumers (260, 270, 280) with Newus Coin can be exchanged by charging or withdrawing at a ratio of 1:1.2.

For example, as in the case of consumer user001, if G-points are charged with Newus Coin, which has a value of 10,000 G-points, 10,000 paid G-points are charged in the C1 column, and the free G-points are 2,000 won in the C2 column. the way it is earned. For user user001, 1,500 free points received as a reward + 10,000 paid points charged with Newus Coin + 2,000 points accumulated free of charge = A total of 13,500 points are notified as G-point amount, but internally, it is not possible to divide and manage it like this. have. If user user001 requests withdrawal, cash withdrawal is not possible because the amount of Gpoint B column that can be withdrawn in cash is 0, and 12,000 Gpoints in column C can be swapped for 10,000 Newus Coins. Since user0001 has gained 12,000 Gpoints with 10,000 Newus Coins, it is desirable to swap it for 10,000 G-points, even if it is conversely swapping 12,000 Gpoints with Newus Coins.

As in the case of consumer user002, if 30,000 points are charged in cash, the amount can be withdrawn again in cash. Instead, consumer user002 cannot directly swap 30,000 Gpoints with Newus Coins because there are no G-points charged with Newus Coins. From the point of view of consumer user002, even if there is a willingness to purchase because the products in the G-Point Mall are cheap and eco-friendly, charging G-Point with cash is more disadvantageous than charging G-Point with Newus Coin. there will be no choice but to In order to solve this problem, it would be advantageous for consumer user002 to use Newus Coin, and through this process, consumers can be encouraged to use Newus Coin.

In the case of seller seller001, the amount received from the sale of products in the G-Point Mall may be paid primarily as G-Point. Here, since the sale price of the product has the same value as cash, G-points can be paid with the amount in column B. The seller seller0001 can withdraw 320,000 Gpoints in the amount of 320,000 won in cash. However, in the case of the seller, the sale price of the goods will be large, so only the seller can provide the function of swapping the G-points in column B with Newus Coins. At this time, additionally, just as consumers had an exchange rate of 1.2 when charging G-points with Newus coins, an exchange rate of 1.2 can be provided when swapping Newus coins with cashable G-points. That is, if the seller seller001 wants to swap 320,000 G-Points with Newus Coins, it can be swapped with Newus Coins with a value of 320,000 * 1.2 = 384,000. If the market price of Newus Coin is 1 NEC = 1.76 KRW, it can be swapped to 218,182 NEC of Newus Coin worth 384,000. This can promote the use of Newus Coin.

Referring to FIG. 8 , you can see a screen for swapping G-Points for consumers with Newus Coins in FIG. 6 , and a screen for swapping G-Points for other sellers with Newus Coins. Since the seller only has received the sale price of the goods in G-points, that is, the seller only holds the G-points in column B in FIG. have.

In the case of a consumer, /1.2 is applied, as it is a case of swapping G-points charged with Newus Coins back to Newus Coins, whereas *1.2 is applied to sellers. For this reason, in FIG. 6 , one G point can be exchanged at an exchange rate of 0.47 NEC for consumers, but 1 G point can be exchanged with an exchange rate of 0.68 NEC for sellers in FIG. 8 . From the seller's point of view, the use of Newus Coin can be promoted because the G-point of column B can be swapped for a Newus coin that has a higher exchange value than with cash withdrawal.

9 to 13 are user interface screens for purchasing and rewarding a product in the trading platform main body 200 of FIG. 1 .

The vendors 210 and 220 may provide goods to be sold through the transaction platform entity 200 and promote them to consumers. In an exemplary embodiment, the vendors 210 and 220 may sell items related to environmental protection.

The above-mentioned environmental protection-related articles include the above three environmental protection-related articles, namely, articles with reduced exhaust gas, articles used to reduce exhaust gas, articles related to the production of alternative energy other than fossil fuels, and food waste. It may include articles and the like that can contribute to the reduction. Such goods may be provided in such a way that authentication is granted according to the standards of the trading platform subject 200 .

Specifically, the product related to environmental protection may be a product that has been given an energy use grade 1, an organic agricultural and fishery product, a product using biodegradable plastic, and the like. In the above, specific examples of items related to environmental protection sold by the vendors 210 and 220 in the trading platform main body 200 have been given. It can be designated through auditing and certification.

The consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may purchase items related to environmental protection sold by the retailers 210 and 220 through the transaction platform entity 200 . At this time, when the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 purchase goods certified by the transaction platform entity 200 as being related to environmental protection, the transaction platform entity 200 determines the purchase history of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . can be saved.

In addition, the transaction platform entity 200 may provide a reward point to the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 who have purchased the authenticated product. The reward points may be other than real money. For example, the reward points may be paid as G-points or Newus Coins. In particular, in the case of a general open market, the bonus points provided according to the purchase price are only a very small level of 1% to 2% of the transaction amount, whereas the reward points according to this embodiment are about 10% or more, or about 11 % or more, or about 12% or more, or about 13% or more, or about 14% or more, or about 15% or more.

The reward points may be differentially paid according to the grades of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . As a non-limiting example, 10% level of reward points are provided to consumers (260, 270, 280) who used the platform for the first time, while consumers who purchased a number of environmental protection products (260, 270, 280) are counted toward the number of purchases. Depending on the level of reward points can be provided.

To this end, the trading platform entity 200 may separately count the number of purchases by consumers (260, 270, 280) of products certified as environmental protection products, rather than all types of products sold by vendors 210 and 220. .

In general, in the case of a trading platform entity represented by an open market, a part of the transaction price of the goods purchased by the consumer can be provided by the retailer to generate revenue. It is common that the profit provided by the vendors is about 10% to 30% of the transaction price. However, the transaction platform entity 200 according to this embodiment does not receive a portion of the transaction price from the store vendors 210 and 220 in return for service provision, but provides the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 as a reward. can

Through this, the store companies 210 and 220 can receive a high profit by providing a lower transaction fee compared to other open market platforms. In addition, the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may be provided with a very high level of reward points compared to other open market platforms, thereby showing the effect of reducing actual purchase costs. In addition, the reward points provided may be cryptocurrencies such as Newus Coin. In the conventional open market, the amount of points provided in return for purchase is not only very insignificant, but there is a limitation in that they are provided as points that cannot be used in other open market platforms. However, the reward point according to the present embodiment may be a cryptocurrency, so it can be used on other platforms other than the transaction platform main body 200, and thus the incentive effect of the consumers 260, 270, 280 can be high.

9 is a user interface screen when consumers 260, 270, and 280 purchase a product at the Gpoint Mall. In addition to the sales amount of the product, reward points are exemplified as 10% by default. For example, if the purchase price of a microbial fermentation decomposition food bioprocessor is 149,000 won, 14,900 points, which is 10% of the amount, can be provided as G-points as a reward. In addition, when the level of the consumers 260 , 270 , 280 is high, additional rewards may be accumulated. In the example of FIG. 9 , it can be seen that the silver level consumer receives 2,980 G points, which is an additional 2%, and finally receives 17,880 G points, which is a 12% reward.

As such, the transaction platform entity 200 of the present invention provides a larger amount to the consumers 260, 270, and 280 by providing it as a reward to the consumers 260, 270, and 280 without obtaining a profit from the vendors 210 and 220. can provide benefits. By providing low prices, eco-friendly products, and even large rewards, it is possible to increase the use of G-Point Mall, further promote the use of Newus Coin and contribute to environmental protection.

In addition, the reward amount may be differentiated according to the grades of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . The grades of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may be changed according to the number of products purchased by the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 at the Gpoint Mall, the amount purchased, and the type of product purchased. For example, the more times a product is purchased, the higher the grade, the higher the purchase price of a product, the higher the grade, and the more eco-friendly products are purchased, the higher the grade.

Referring to FIGS. 10 and 11 , more detailed examples of user ratings in the Gpoint Mall can be seen. Referring to FIG. 10 , a total of five grades are classified in the G-Point Mall. The grades are divided from the lowest grade, bronze grade, to silver grade, gold grade, master grade, and platinum grade.

When a user uses G-Point Mall for the first time, there is no grade, and in this case, only 10% of the reward is accumulated, and after purchasing one or more items, it is upgraded to the bronze level where 11% of the reward is accumulated. Silver level requires at least 5 purchase history, purchase amount of 100,000 won or more, and purchase of at least one eco-friendly product to be upgraded, and 12% reward is accumulated. Gold level requires at least 10 purchases, purchases of 200,000 won or more, and purchases of 3 or more eco-friendly products can be upgraded, and 13% of rewards are available. Master level requires at least 20 purchases, purchases of 500,000 won or more, and purchases of 5 or more eco-friendly products to be upgraded, and 14% of rewards are accumulated. Lastly, for Platinum level, you must have at least 30 purchases, the purchase amount is 1 million won or more, and you must purchase 10 or more eco-friendly products to be upgraded, and there is a benefit of earning a 15% reward.

The number of purchases for upgrade, the purchase amount, and the number of purchases of eco-friendly products illustrated in FIG. 10 are preferably applied as an AND condition, but may be applied as an OR condition in some cases. For example, a user who has purchased 10 or more eco-friendly products can be upgraded to the Platinum level even if the number of purchases or the purchase amount is less than 30 and 1 million won. In order to promote the purchase of eco-friendly products by users, it can be operated under OR conditions.

In this case, the eco-friendly product refers to products that have passed the eco-friendly certification as shown in FIG. 11 . For example, food that has passed the eco-friendly agricultural and livestock certification system certified by the National Agricultural Products Quality Management Service (https://www.enviagro.go.kr/) site may correspond to this. The eco-friendly agricultural and livestock product certification system is a system in which the government certifies the safety of eco-friendly agricultural and livestock products that are safer for consumers by a professional certification institution that selects and inspects them according to strict standards.

As another example, products that have passed the environmental label certification certified by the Korea Environmental Industry and Technology Institute (https://www.keiti.re.kr/) may correspond to this. The eco-label system provides information on environmental improvement to consumers (buyers) by displaying a logo (environmental label) on the product when the environmental quality of the product is improved compared to other products for the same purpose, and responds to consumers’ preference for eco-labeled products. It is a voluntary certification system that induces companies to develop and produce eco-friendly products to voluntarily improve the environment.

As another example, products that have passed the low-carbon product certification certified by the Korea Environmental Industry and Technology Institute (https://www.keiti.re.kr/) may correspond to this. The carbon footprint is one of the categories of environmental impact on the environmental report card, and the amount of greenhouse gas generated in the entire process, such as raw material collection, production, transportation/distribution, use, and disposal of products and services, is converted into carbon dioxide emissions and displayed on the product in the form of a label. The carbon footprint consists of the first stage of carbon footprint certification and the second stage of low-carbon product certification.

As another example, products that have passed the energy consumption efficiency rating system certified by the Korea Energy Agency (https://eep.energy.or.kr/) may correspond to this. The energy consumption efficiency rating display system is a mandatory reporting system for consumers to easily purchase energy-saving products with high efficiency and for manufacturers (importers) to produce and sell energy-saving products from the production (import) stage. . In this system, efficiency grades are divided into 1 to 5 grades according to energy consumption efficiency or energy consumption, and the Minimum Energy Performance Standard (MEPS), which is the lower limit of energy consumption efficiency, is applied.

When the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 purchase the eco-friendly product illustrated in FIG. 11 , more rewards are provided to the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 who purchased more eco-friendly products by checking their purchase history. can promote the distribution and sales of In particular, in order to confirm that the consumers (260, 270, 280) actually purchased and used the eco-friendly product, additional points can be accumulated by scanning the QR code attached when the product is shipped.

Referring to FIG. 12 , when purchasing an eco-friendly product, consumers (260, 270, 280) scan the QR code attached to the product after receiving the product, and earn additional rewards paid for each grade of 10% or more. For example, if a silver level consumer who earns 12% purchases an eco-friendly product, a 10% reward is initially accumulated at the time of purchase, and the product is attached to the actual product during the purchase confirmation process after receiving the product. By scanning the QR code, you can offer rewards in such a way that an additional 2% of the remaining rewards are accumulated.

In this way, by providing rewards in two steps, the purchase confirmation process is performed by checking whether the consumers 260, 270, and 280 have received the product well or whether a refund is required, and in addition, other consumers receive reviews about the product. You can provide real user reviews about which eco-friendly product is better for you. However, in order to prevent user abusing in this process, when scanning the QR code, only the QR code scan within a certain range is compared with the GPS information of the application and the value obtained by converting the product delivered to the GPS in the purchase history of the product purchase. can be treated as valid.

Referring to FIG. 13 , consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 purchase a product at the Gpoint Mall and transmit purchase information to the transaction platform subject 200 ( S1210 ). In this case, the purchase information may include payment information and delivery address information. The transaction platform entity 200 transmits purchase details to the vendors 210 and 220, and the vendors 210 and 220 purchase goods purchased by the consumers 260, 270, and 280 to the consumers 260, 270, and 280. Delivered to the shipping address you entered. At this time, the trading platform entity 200 primarily accumulates 10% of points to the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 ( S1230 ).

After receiving the product, the consumers 260, 270, and 280 scan the QR code attached to the product and transmit it to the transaction platform subject|200 (S1250). Then, as illustrated in FIG. 10 , the trading platform entity 200 additionally accumulates 1-5% of G points according to the grades of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 ( S1270 ). At this time, in order to prevent the abusing of consumers (260, 270, 280), the GPS information of the smartphone application at the time of scanning the QR code and the information converted to the GPS of the delivery address are compared, and only when the difference is within the preset range 2 You can earn additional tea points.

For reference, the API that converts an address into GPS can be used through a map service provider such as Naver, Kakao, or Google. For example, Naver can use Geocoding through the Naver Cloud Platform site (https://www.ncloud.com/product/applicationService/maps). Kakao can use Geocoding through the Kakao Map API site (https://apis.map.kakao.com/web/). Google makes Geocoding available through its map platform (https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation?hl=en). In this way, by comparing the delivery address and the GPS information of the location where the QR code is scanned, it is possible to accumulate additional rewards along with the purchase confirmation process and promote the use of eco-friendly products.

In addition, the transaction platform entity 200 may store transaction details of goods related to environmental protection of a plurality of consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 and submit it to the third institution 300 . Here, the third organization 300 may be the United Nations (United Nations) that manages the carbon emission rights project. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and may be a government in charge of carbon emission rights projects in Korea, or Korea Electric Power Corporation.

The transaction details submitted by the trading platform entity 200 to the third institution 300 include the number of purchases and sales of environmental protection-related products, the amount of purchases and sales, the types of purchased and sold products, and the like. Therefore, it can be a quantified index of participation in environmental protection. The participation index for environmental protection may be a score or point quantifying how much the consumer (260, 270, 280) has contributed to environmental protection by purchasing and using environmental protection-related products, compared to the case of using other products that are not. . As a specific example, the participation index is an index that quantifies how much the consumer (260, 270, 280) has reduced carbon dioxide emissions by purchasing and using items related to environmental protection, compared to the case of using other items that are not. can be The indicator may be based on the standard presented by the third institution 300, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

Based on the history submitted by the trading platform entity 200 to the third institution 300 , the trading platform entity 200 may receive a predetermined benefit from the third institution 300 . The profit may mean a monetary profit from the sale of carbon credits.

That is, in the environment protection business system 10 according to the present embodiment, the profit structure of the trading platform main body 200 does not originate from the vendors 210 and 220 .

As described above, the transaction fees provided by the vendors 210 and 220 are provided as reward points to the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 , thereby reducing the actual purchase cost of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . In addition, the reward points provided by the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 may be provided as cryptocurrencies that can be used in all fields, rather than the kind of cyber money used only in the transaction platform subject 200 of the present embodiment. In addition, there is an advantage that the entry companies 210 and 220 can also pay the transaction fee at a lower rate compared to other open markets.

The trading platform entity 200 submits to the third institution 300 a score quantifying the environmental protection-related products provided by consumers 260, 270, and 280, and the degree of contribution to environmental protection through this. 3 The institution 300 may provide financial benefits to the trading platform entity 200 in return for environmental protection. Accordingly, the profit obtained by the trading platform entity 200 may be provided from the third institution 300 , rather than from the vendors 210 , 220 and the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 .

The profit provided by the trading platform subject 200 from the third institution 300 as above is the more consumers 260, 270, 280 purchase, and the more consumers 260, 270, 280 this implementation. The higher the participation in the trading platform subject 200 of the example, the higher it may be. The consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 in many cases decide the selection of the open market simply according to the price of the product they want to purchase when purchasing the product. However, as described above, the transaction platform entity 200 of this embodiment provides a high reward point, so that the perceived purchase cost is very low, and the purchase of the product leads to the environmental protection of the consumers 260 , 270 , and 280 . (260, 270, 280) can provide psychological satisfaction.

On the other hand, the actual use of the Newus coin can be promoted through the environmental protection business system 10 according to the present embodiment. As described above, when consumers 260, 270, and 280 purchase Newus Coins and then swap them for G-points, they may be provided with G-points having a value greater than or equal to Newus Coins. If the vendors 210 and 220 are also provided with the sale price as Newus Coins, they can obtain a financial gain having a value greater than or equal to the actual transaction price.

In addition, even when consumers (260, 270, 280) purchase a certified product related to environmental protection and receive the reward points, they can be provided as Newus Coins, and the transaction platform subject 200 according to the present embodiment. It is also available on other platforms.

The cyber money charging operation 521 charges cyber money at a different exchange rate 561 according to the payment method requested by the user. Specifically, when using a cash payment method, when using a virtual currency payment method with a 1:1 exchange ratio (561), when using a virtual currency payment method with a 1:1.2 exchange ratio (561) When using a virtual currency payment method can be recharged At this time, the charged cyber money value is again stored as cyber money 569 in the storage 560 through the system bus 550 .

In the cyber money withdrawal operation 523 , when a user requests to withdraw the cyber money 569 , the cyber money withdrawal operation 523 may process the withdrawal at different exchange rates 561 depending on whether the cyber money is paid or free. For example, when requesting withdrawal of paid cyber money as a cash payment method, the withdrawal is processed at a 1:1 exchange rate. If a virtual currency payment method is requested to withdraw the sum of paid cyber money and free cyber money, the withdrawal is processed at a conversion ratio of 1:1.2. For example, if there are 12,000 points of paid cyber money and free cyber money, they are processed as virtual currency with a value of 10,000. According to the means requested for withdrawal, whether only paid cyber money is withdrawn or free cyber money is also processed, and how to change the exchange rate at that time has been described in detail with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8 .

In the reward accumulation operation 525 , when a user purchases an item, rewards may be accumulated as cyber money according to a different accumulation ratio 565 according to the user's grade 563 . At this time, the rewards accumulated according to the accumulation ratio 565 common to all users can be accumulated primarily after the delivery of the goods is completed, and the rewards accumulated according to the accumulation ratio 565 that are different according to the user's grade are obtained by the user. It can be accumulated secondary in the process of receiving the item and confirming the purchase by scanning the QR code attached to the item.
