The company says, Buying.com customers can also be assured of their transactions being secure, as the platform combines the best of blockchain to offer a digital ledger that "Offers fraud-proof solutions and auto-verifies transactions for a tamper-proof, secure, immutable audit trail."
The platform will run using built-in tokens called BUY. These tokens operate an incentive scheme for Node operators to help scale up the network's progress.
BUY tokens can be used to complete transactions on the site, and can also be earned by recommending buying.com to others.
The ICO pre-sale has started on Oct. 1 2018, with BUY tokens released for purchase at $0.07.
By Q4 of 2018 the team plans to have fully launched the BUY tokens and blockchain enhancements on their website, as well as unveiling the Buying.com DApp.
