1. INTRODUCTION
We live in an amazing time – information technologies era. One of the greatest discoveries of modernity is certainly Blockchain technology and cryptocurrency created on its base. Many people, in terms of importance, compare blockchain technology with the discovery of the Internet. More and more people want to be a part of a crypto market, which won`t be governed by governments or Central Banks. In the era of classic Internet, cross-border E-Commerce provides an uninterrupted flow of information for international trade, especially for trade between small and medium enterprises (hereinafter referred to as SME). However, the flow of information, logistics, and capital flow can be realized only with the help of an international system of financial payments and multiple outside agencies acting in Internet support only knowledge and information exchange. It’s worth saying that both the existing system of cross-border financial payments and the services of trade agents cost a lot, which increases the amount of SME in cross-border trade. However, these mediators are needed due to the differences in geographical location and absence of trust between two parties of cross-border trade. We all got used to the fact that in sales transactions three parties are involved: seller-bank-customer. Such scheme was essential until recently due to various reasons, but society is changing: people become more developed and self-sufficient therefore they need less and less control and mediation from the currency monopolies. Many of us were already eager to undertake responsibility for our payment decisions which created the necessity to create free, self-regulating, decentralized economic space. Blockchain technology brings new solutions to this dilemma by transforming the traditional Internet information sharing into the value sharing provided by the decentralized trust.

Now, the technology based on blockchain provides immutable
transaction records without the need for the third party warranties.
For the first time international trade, involving a few participants can
be based on sources, data and business logic, built using
cryptographically secure data sources.
Bitcoin, the first generation of blockchain technology, provides
the first cross-border payment solution of financial digital currency
without intermediaries to serve the globe.
Ethereum is the second-generation blockchain technology and it
puts forward the concept of smart contract where the code plays the role
of law, which ensures that the participants will not be able to overthrow
and subvert the previous contract and business logic. The legally regulated
arbitration currently used might become a pre-agreed business code.
Business logic like supply chain finance, letter of credit, etc. can be partially
or even fully supported by smart contracts which no one can break. Business
logic, such as supply chain financing, bill of credit, etc. may be partially or
even fully supported by smart contracts no one can dissolve.
Tokens, generated in Ethereum can alter trade behavior and
contribution of every participant, therefore turning all the participants into
an autonomous community, providing stimulus or punishments. Every token
holder will preserve the value of the token through their own efforts,
protecting their own interests.

2. Mission and Vision
Given the great potential of blockchain technology to redefine the
existing rules of international trade and years of experience in international
trade, we have established a company WEB TOKEN PROFIT LTD, license No.
11960383.
Legal seat: 8 Franklin Road, Gosport, Hampshire, England, PO13 9TP.
Web Token Profit platform will use the blockchain technology for the
implementation of crypto-payment systems and set priorities for the promotion of
crypto assets in the international trade. Upholding the decentralization,
transparency and mutual benefit this platform is dedicated to the promotion of
global trade organizations and mutual creation of DAO and DAA. DAO stands for
Decentralized Autonomous Organization. Decentralized Autonomous Organization
is a platform of smart contracts of a new generation where commands are
performed automatically. The software is open source and operates without
supervision and outside interference. In this organizational form, everyone can
become a member of the organization by purchasing or providing services,
projects and software products. DAA is a Decentralized Autonomous Application -
autonomous applications working in blockchain, providing certain services to their
users. Among others, there are games, currency exchange, wallets, exchange
houses, casinos, payment systems, etc.
6
Web Token Profit platform is going to change the whole ecology of
international trade while implementing its payment solutions, financial
applications of social programs, systems for secure storage of information on
the blockchain, applications for controlling and accounting for liquidity,
assets, and interactions between them. At the same time, based on our
understanding that blockchain means DTL (distributed ledger technology) plus
digital token, we have also issued a WPT token for the functioning of the Web
Token Profit.
An economic model of the Web Token Profit platform helps to defend the
interests of all existing participants of international trade and share dividends from
blockсhain technology.
Web Token Profit stimulus is not only to create a global cross-border
business environment of E-Commerce where “good money” supersedes “bad
money” but also stimulates all previously excluded resources for the participation
in global cross-border trading services between SME and individuals.
The means for this will be solutions that allow the full development of
decentralized trading on the blockchain and the creation of a decentralized self-
sufficient community, where users can make decisions without involving
traditional centralized institutions.
Web Token Profit is the first project in the world that dedicates blockchain
technology to improving international trade and consumer spending ecosystem.
WTP token will ensure supply chain transparency, traceability and trade finance.
The mission of this platform is to allow every user to perform his activity,
connected with the purchase and selling of goods, crypto assets and services for
digital tokens.
7
It is assumed that in the next three - five years, annual
increments in global trade will be about two trillion US dollars, that will
promote the transformation from traditional international trade
systems to digital trade, and create additional business opportunities
worth trillions of US dollars each year. All community members will work
together to build an equal and mutually beneficial international trade
ecology and share the huge dividends of the powerful development of
blockchain technology.
We aim is to create a global market with no financial boundaries,
intermediaries or bureaucracy. We will connect sellers and customers from
all over the world to create a system that will bring E-Commerce to the
whole new level.

3. Analysis of international trade condition and
E-Commerce market research
International trade refers to cross-border trade in goods and services.
It includes imports and exports, so it can be classified into trade in
services and goods.
3.1 International trade in services
International trade in service is an activity of service provisions
performed among counteragents located in different countries. International
trade in service is becoming more and more important and rapidly growing
segment of world economic connections.
The types of services are diverse, some of them are often included in
the export and import of goods and are difficult to separate from the supply
of goods.
The main types of international services are import and export of transport,
tourism, bank, financial, insurance, data, educational, healthcare, technical,
construction, consultation, and other services.
The form of these services differs (consultations, documents, PC
programs,
films, videotapes, etc.). They are provided to companies and organizations,
and in recent years to individuals (tourism, education, healthcare, etc.). It`s
obvious that the qualification of services, their scientific content, labor
intensity, etc. can greatly vary. Services cannot be stored as goods; their
character suggests their immediate use by the consumer. Another difference
from international trade in goods is the absence of customs control and
therefore they cannot be taxed. The practice of existing projects shows a
positive role of cryptocurrencies in the process of payment for services.
Cross-border payments simplify this process by introducing it
from the regulatory system of state bodies.

3.2 E-Commerce market
The development of E-Commerce has an explosive and
rapidly-developing character.
The informatization of society and its components - from individuals to
organizations and states - leads to an accelerated decision-making process,
therefore, to an accelerated process of movement of goods and services,
which, for the most part, are now carried out through the Internet. No doubt
left that in foreseeable future E-Commerce will become one of the main
types of trade and one of the perspective compounds of “new economy”.
The popularity of E-Commerce is rapidly growing under the influence of
various factors and it’s impossible to imagine modern world without online
stores and mobile apps which help to quickly make purchases on all levels.
10
At the present stage of development, E-Commerce allows
organizations to significantly reduce financial and time resources,
increase competitiveness, enter new sales markets, receive additional
information about consumer needs, respond quickly to changes in
demand. Many companies use the opportunities of E-Commerce to
ensure additional pre- and aftersales maintenance. The spread of
information technology contributes to the creation of a new economic
infrastructure that ensures sustainable economic development of both
states and business entities through a qualitative improvement in the
possibilities for information exchange. According to the UNCTAD – UN
Conference on trade and development, the turnover of E-Commerce will
reach 29 trillion US dollars in 2019. Of these, more than 80% is in the B2B
sector.
More and more people are turning to purchase goods and services via
the Internet. There are about 1.8 billion buyers of online marketplaces in the
world, and their number is constantly growing. According to Global E-
Commerce Report, a market research, performed by Nielson, a company,
specializing in market measurements in the consumer goods industry, the
number of people, who shop online, annually increases by an average of
16%.
11
So, according to Statista, retail E-Commerce turnover (B2C) will reach 3.4 trillion
US dollars in 2019 and it is expected that by 2021 the turnover will be 4.8 trillion
US dollars. Considering that the indicator in 2016 constituted 1.8 trillion US
dollars, today we can observe 90% growth of this market and doubling of the
turnover as early as next year.
The number of online shoppers is also predicted to grow by 4% annually.
Global E-Commerce sales steadily absorb the global retail market. In fact, it will
consist 17.5% from the total volume of retail sales in the world by 2021.
12
The most popular electronic trading platforms in 2017 were Taobao
with a global market share of about 18% and Amazon with a market share of
15%. It`s worth noticing that in the third and fourth places there are also
Chinese marketplaces – Tmall and JD. An American online store eBay closed
the top five with a turnover of less than 5%. Japanese Rakuten had only 2%
of the global market.
The center of E-Commerce is shifting from the western hemisphere. As
a giant, the United States' share in the global E-Commerce retail market is
projected to drop by as much as 16.9% in 2020. One of the main reasons for
this is the increase in globalization and technology improvement. Such an E-
Commerce shift means that enterprises should apply an international
approach to ensure their global availability and convenience.
13
According to the first quarter of 2017, 56% of buyers prefer to
shop using computers or laptops. With the growth of mobile
commerce, the number of customers preferring to buy via mobile
devices has reached 53%. Shopping via the tablet remains the least
popular of all devices. However, 75% of buyers noted that they
preferred to use any devices while shopping online and not be limited
to just one.
Already by the end of 2018, the situation was as follows: 65% of
buyer`s traffic came from mobile devices, 29% from computers, and only
6% from tablets. In fact, 46% of online orders were received from
mobile devices, 45% from computers and 8% from tablets which signifies
that although half of the buyers study the content via mobile phones, they
still prefer to shop online through computers. E-Commerce advantages are
obvious as more and more people come to the conclusion that paying for the
goods or services from their smartphones saves a lot of time meanwhile
bargains are becoming safer and more convenient. In connection with the
increasing need of society for such services, the role of global online
marketplaces has increased. The volume of global Internet trade is
calculated in the trillions of dollars. Ten most active E-Commerce user
countries include the USA, China, Great Britain, Japan, France, Germany,
South Korea, Canada, and Russia. In these countries we can also observe an
increased use of blockchain technologies and, correspondingly, the need for
online-marketplaces, accepting cryptocurrencies.
Interesting enough, the customers are increasingly looking for
products on the Internet outside their country. Actually, 57% of online
buyers said they had made online-purchases from overseas retailers within
the last six months. The average percentage of consumers who make
overseas purchases across the continents: 63.4% in Europe, 57.9% in the
Asia-Pacific region, 55.5% in Africa, 54.6% in Latin America and 45.5% in
North America. This increasing tendency of E-Commerce is connected with
globalization.
14
Sales are not the only area where efficiency improves due to the
transition to B2B E-Commerce.
B2B (Business-to-Business) E-Commerce is an online purchase and
product marketing between businesses. If compare it with the B2C
(Business-to-Consumer) branch of E-Commerce the aim of which is to sell
to the consumer, it`s expected that by 2020 the volume of B2B
E-Commerce will be twice higher than
B2C.
15
*by 2021 in the US only the volume of sales using B2B E-Commerce will be 1.184 trillion USD.
The personalization of E-Commerce becomes a standard.
Within the last few years, the personalization of E-Commerce has become a
huge tendency among the enterprises, but in 2019 and the following years it
will be not just a tendency. About 33% of customers have terminated their
relationship with business due to the lack of personalization. Besides that,
personalization has evolved into a more sophisticated marketing strategy.
The times when personalization was limited to the clients` identification by
name have passed by. Now E-Commerce personalization is a dynamic picture
of a unique and individual shopping experience for the consumer.
16
The personalization is carried out with the analysis of personal information, which varies from demographics, online behavior, purchase history, and other data related to their purchases. There are dozens of ways of how to implement E-Commerce personalization. For example, using the user's interest in the purchase, you can create targeted recommendations for a cart, and after the customer adds it to his cart, relevant products, based on previously added goods, will be shown.
The amount of mobile devices is constantly growing providing an increase in their use in E-Commerce. By 2020 smartphone market will consist of 6 billion devices. Over the past couple of years, the mobile market has already matured and to the end of 2018 already have reached 70% of E-Commerce. This growing ubiquitous use of mobile devices in E-Commerce is due to the desire of customers to complete a transaction without having to go through the desktop. They want to keep it handy. With their mobile devices, shoppers can now view, research, and purchase products anytime, anywhere. Considering that by 2020 the profit from mobile communications will reach 175.4 billion US dollars, mobile purchases will stay relevant in 2019 and in the next couple of years more than ever. The possibility to instantly make deals is one of the main factors, motivating clients to use their mobile devices.
These days digital wallets are widely used in E-Commerce, among others Google Pay, PayPal, Apple, and Samsung Pay. These digital services allow people to perform purchases using e-transactions which makes the purchasing more convenient. These types of payments are required. The cryptocurrency payment services are being developed at a rapid pace. Legal recognition of crypto assets encourages their integration in the payment systems for E-Commerce. In fact, 70% of people await that digital payments will surpass cash and credit cards by 2030.
E-Commerce is a permanently growing world. With the growing purchasing power of global consumers, the increasing use of social networks and the evolving infrastructure and technology, the future of E-Commerce in 2019 and the following years remains even more dynamic than ever.

4. Problems of international trade and E-Commerce. Along with ordinary trading and commercial problems, emerging
in any type of business there are a few additional problems in
international trade:
time – payment confirmation takes a long time. In some cases,
payment confirmation takes up to 14 days. Banks aren’t able to create
a transparent control system over the movement of funds between
counterparties;
volatility – course fluctuations on the international currency market
together with indefinite timing of receipt of funds lead to financial
losses of the seller;
laws and regulations– currency legal restrictions and currency
regulation systems reduce the purchases competitiveness;
logistics – the absence of online informing, instant payments and
digital workflow complicate this process;
payments – the high price of cross-border payments, connected with
the monopolization of international payments and state regulation of
foreign exchange transactions;
trust – low trust level between counteragents. As a rule, a customer
and a seller have different jurisdictions, which increases the risk of
fraud during the trading of the product;
safety – third parties as guarantors ensure financial deals safety.

5. Solutions provided by the Web Token Profit platform
The usage of the Web Token Profit platform ecosystem and the WTP token-based payment system solves the problems that arise in trading, financial and logistics operations. Payments, based on cryptocurrencies are performed as soon as possible and with a minimum commission fee, which allows significantly reduce risks, increase profitability and solve the problems of international online trade.
Time – any transaction is held within seconds. Payment transit time is transparent and tracked in network browsers. The user can regulate the transit time, increasing the transaction cost.
Volatility – low currency volatility allows the customer and the seller to send and pay WTP token amounts, which meet their expectations.
Laws and regulations – government restrictions on cryptocurrencies are relics of the past. The legalization of digital currencies in many countries allows using crypto payments with low tax rates of without them.
Logistics – systems of cargo tracking based on blockchain technology allow to create transparent online-services for controlling movements of goods and cargo.
Payments – low cost of payments in WTP token allows to perform micropayments and the cost of big transactions also remains cheap.
Trust – cryptographic systems allow verification of users using electronic signature systems.
Safety is ensured by cryptographic protection using encryption systems based on SHA-256 algorithms, that with the current development of microprocessor technology do not allow brute force hacking.
19
Web Token Profit platform connects consumers and sellers
worldwide to create an ecosystem which will bring E-Commerce trade
on a whole new level.
The use of WTP token in the payment systems and projects under
developing creates unique tokenomics. So not only current projects can
function, but ordinary users can make money, participating in them.
International marketplace, social platforms, global currency exchange, and
multi-currency wallets are bricks of a huge Web Token Profit ecosystem.

6. WTP token
WEB TOKEN PROFIT PLATFORM CURRENCY
WTP token is used a payment asset on Web Token Profit
WTP token is emitted on the Ethereum platform, ERC20 standard.
Currently, Ethereum blockchain is a branch standard for digital assets and
smart-contract emission.
Smart-contract ERC20 interface allows deploying a standard token
compatible with the existing Ethereum ecosystem infrastructure.
The ability of Ethereum network to deploy smart-contracts without a
guarantor intermediary supports the realization of hard emission of crypto-
currencies, digital financial contracts, and atomized stimulation structures.
Ethereum with its advanced features and active ecosystem is ideal for WTP
token.
Smart contract address: 0x1680cfdad75da2bb56ded4f36bb9423c86ffa7b7
Total token number: 21 000 000 WTP
Token number is a constant value and according to the smart contract
can't be increased. Smart contract ensures transaction safety, transparency
and protection.
