If anyone wants to dig deeper into the Xchain index for XTROPTIONS.Gold, they need only go to the bottom of the page.  Click the SENDS on the lower panel menu. Then, click on any transaction to see the tracking information that has gone through some high-level encryption to validate the transaction.  Note, there is no detail of who made the trade or what was traded.  The blockchain says "Someone trades a number of TROPTIONS to Someone else."  How do we know this happened?  The transaction was documented and validated by an independent system that doesn't care who did what.  The blockchain says with authority that "These Exchanges are Real", and there is no debate about the documentation.

 You will see something like this.  The Address is a hash code that identifies the exact transaction and the QR code does the same.  We also see the "Total Estimated Value" of the trade.  No one can debate this profound documentation.  So, the question of the value and tradability is proven and beyond question. 

There are those who may scoff at the blockchain, arguing that it can be manipulated.  That is pure ignorance.  We know that people may hype and manipulate the facts and promises of a type of cryptocurrency, but they cannot manipulate the blockchain.  If you are dubious, just do your research.  The encryption process is amazing, and the transparency of all the transactions makes it impossible to fool the system.  

We note that there are crooks out there using the blockchain and cryptocurrency for illicit means, which are extremely hard to trace back to the criminal, but that security is a sad fact that still proves how real the blockchain system is.  Financial institutions like Western Union, MasterCard, MoneyGram, and IBM are using the blockchain.  Banks like the Royal Bank Of Canada, Royal Bank Of Scotland, and Bank of America are using the blockchain as well.  That list is growing by the month, and may well become the most trusted trading exchange system we currently possess.

So, the reality is clear to those who have common sense rather than biased ignorance, the listing of any cryptocurrency, including TROPTIONS is bona fide evidence that there is VALUE to this token in the form of the exchange of goods and services for TROPTIONS.  If this is not enough, it is hard to imagine that anything more than redemption in actual silver or gold would suffice the skeptics.  In the meantime, we have confidence in TROPTIONS as a field-proven trade asset that is worthy of adoption as a means of exchange.
