Let's dive into Pylon

Pylon protocol is remodeling the conventional value transfer model

The goal of pylon is to capture value for transactions over a sustained period of time involving recurring consumption

In a conventional value transfer model, a seller offers some good or service and a buyer pays with money or barter.

This model fails to effectively capture value for transactions over a sustained period of time involving recurring consumption (like a Netflix subscription)

Pylon Protocol is offering a solution to those problems:

1. Sellers of future value or unascertained goods (early-stage startups, crowdfunding, initial coin offerings, etc.) may not incentivized to deliver value over time if they receive all funds upfront.

2. Sellers of intangible value (artists, musicians, livestreamers, content creators, etc.) may struggle to monetize their creative content offerings and receive steady payouts that reflect fanbase growth over time.

3. Sellers of recurring value (content IP, SaaS software, subscription-based services, etc.) may rely on discounts to fair value to reduce churn.

4. Lenders of illiquid assets (real estate, cars, luxury items, etc.) may lack a venue to securely lease their asset over time and be provided with proper recourse for contract violations.

Pylon consists of a suite of savings and payments products in Decentralized Finance that build on stable yield-bearing protocols like Anchor Protocol in order to provide services powered by user deposits.

The protocol is maintained by various independent platforms and is governed by holders of Pylon's native governance token.

Pylon is designed for broad appeal beyond the world of crypto natives

The process of making a payment with Pylon for the user is pretty simple:

1-Deposit Terra stablecoins for access to recurring services powered by platforms.

2-Withdraw your principal in full, base capital untouched, upon subscription expiry.

For the creator, using Pylon is even simpler:

1-Customize your funding options and receive stable, continuous yields generated from user deposits.

Pylon gateway, a token launchpad for forthcoming projects on the terra blockchain

With Pylon Protocol, investors will have an opportunity to make riskless investments while accessing all the upsides of pitching in early.

Investors deposit principal-protected Terra stablecoin to a project of their choice in order to earn project tokens and governance rights.

Investors may withdraw their full principal after a pledged lockup period to claim corresponding rewards.

Project teams can customize funding options and receive consistent yield payouts that will respond to project growth over a sustained period of time.

Pylon's native governance tokens will be one of the first projects to be officially launching on Gateway.
