THE STONE COIN celebrates its 1st birthday
In August 2018, THE STONE COIN was released for sale by the FMA Liechtenstein!

                 After months of legal investigations entailing and many hours of work
                 on the part of the founders and lawyers, we managed to get the FMA to
                 classify THE STONE COIN as a payment token. As such, the basis was
                 created for us to enter the market with THE STONE COIN.
                 In this anniversary issue, you can find out what has been implemented
                 over the course of this year and what is yet to come.

Acceptance Points and PayApp
THE STONE COIN is a payment token. The development of a network of acceptance points is therefore a logical
concern of the company. Currently, in partnership with specialized service providers in the DACH region and in
South America, our own POS acceptance point network is being set up for the payment token THE STONE COIN,
in order to bring THE STONE COIN to the Point of Sales (POS).

Important: Wherever CoinwayPAY is used, THE STONE COIN is accepted.

 We, Dos Coinway GmbH from Graz, Austria, have been working together with THE STONE COIN AG for over 1
 year now. During this time we got to know and appreciate the competence and quality of the people involved.
 We have developed the payment system for traders, „CoinwayPAY“, and are responsible for the IT and block-
 chain technology in the background. Together we are currently implementing several projects in Europe and
 South America. We are pleased to be able to help shape the future of money and payments together with THE
 STONE COIN AG.
