TROPTIONS TRAINING COURSE.

A Brief History of TROPTIONS

The concept of TROPTIONS (a contraction of "Trade Options") goes back roughly fifteen years ago when Garland Harris conceived and developed a kind of digital currency that was not tied to fiat currency.  As such, it is not tied to the ups and downs of fiat currency.  TROPTIONS was filed with the SEC in 2004 preceding Bitcoin by three years.  TROPTIONS were not intended to be a security as other cryptocurrencies became.  As such, the intent was not to make a coin or token for speculation or under the intense control of the SEC, but a "Trade Option" or trade asset that would act in lieu of cash.  A rare concept at first, but now TROPTIONS are traded worldwide on the blockchain moving millions of dollar value in TROPTIONS exchanges.  

Garland developed TROPTIONS as a token used for trade.  In this video, Garland explains a few basics about types of currency.  TROPTIONS are not actually a currency, but a trade asset.  And, we learn that while some currencies are poorly funded and easily manipulated, TROPTIONS has a calculable value based upon the actual trades of goods and services of the currency.  

The volume of trades by TROPTIONS acts like the Gross National Product (GNP) of that community.  You see, while there may be scarcity, unemployment, and tight money in Missouri, there may be a robust economy in Florida.  That is because of the trade of goods and services that creates financial vitality for every community.

Garland passed away in 2018, and the program moved to his predicted stage or a truly decentralized system that allows everyone to enjoy a democratic level of participation.  Nonetheless, the company moves forward strengthened by more and more people in the TROPTIONS ecosystem who are making deals.  Evidence of the activity of the TROPTIONS market can be seen by the constantly updated xChain index.  This index is an algorithm that calculates trading activity.  It is believed that some eight billion TROPTIONS are traded monthly, but the index only shows the results of those trades.  This is how we can state that there is intrinsic value in the TROPTIONS token.  

In the video, you heard how Garland started TROPTIONS fifteen years before and the initial value was ten cents.  TROPTIONS were worth over $100 at the time of the video, and they were worth over $1000 in 2021.  While we are yet to see the full extent of TROPTIONS as a tradable asset, we see a history of a constant increase in value.

When explaining TROPTIONS to people, the value of growth is a strong and valid argument.  It is hard to lose out when the currency is growing in value.  By the way, everyone needs to know that all cryptocurrencies, including bitcoin, were not fungible (tradable) in the early days.  Many cryptocurrencies are called NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens), so there is no present concern that TROPTIONS are not immediately converted to cash.  But we expect that TROPTIONS will soon be traded on various exchanges for other cryptocurrencies and also capable of exchanging to cash currencies.

Consider these Facts:

XTROPTIONS started on November 11th, 2017, at $11.00 per token.  As of November 11, 2021, TROPTIONS were valued on the index at $1200+ per token.

If we accept the U. S. Dollar was at $1.00 in value in 2017, it was worth $.86 in 2021.  

If fiat currency is supported by the "Full Faith and Credit" of the issuing country, isn't all money built on some measure of FAITH?  In life then, some people will have faith and take action on that faith, and some will reject faith and blame their inability on others.  It seems that cryptocurrency is about "What you believe" in many cases, more the one's ability to believe in something they haven't yet viewed as finished.

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen."  Hebrews 11:1

Before we get into the fine details of cryptocurrency and TROPTIONS which have solid evidence of their proven value and performance, let's understand what currency represents.  Pure faith is what God Himself requires of those who seek His benevolence.  (Hebrews 11:2) It would seem, regardless of your religious stance, that pure faith is the "Currency of Heaven", and we cannot do business with God without spending that currency with Him.

In the physical realm, our faith is tied to words or actions.  We are told that "Faith without works is dead" in James 2:14-26.  This is not a sermon, but a lesson, nonetheless.  

In this created world, currencies of all types are built upon "Full Faith and Credit" of whatever may be used for an exchange or trade.  The odd question that is hard to answer is "What if someone doesn't believe in the value of the offer?"  They have the right to refuse the offer and walk away.  People have the free will ability to wholly reject God and His promises as well.

The other question to ask it, "Does the rejection of some to accept an offer make the offer void or worthless?"  The rest of us are free to accept an offer regardless of how we perceive its value.  That is our free right, even if the offer seems foolish to others or may be criticized as worthless.  In the end, it comes down to "Do you want to enter into an exchange where the value is honestly represented? 

You have choices when it comes to cryptocurrencies.  Most people have heard of or even own some Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Dogecoin, or Ripple.  If you have followed the historic charts, the massive earnings are mostly in the past and current gains are often lost by the cycle of losses.  In short, well-known cryptocurrencies may see even more gains, but they are not likely to equal the early gains enjoyed by the "Early Adopters"

Lesser-known coins like Shiba Inu are capable of huge gains and huge losses.  If you are lucky or super smart, you may find the next explosive coin that can make you rich.

The vast majority of these coins or tokens are pure speculation.  You buy them and hope that you have picked a winner.  In all likelihood, most good coins will trend upwards, but only a few will have those waves of huge value growth.

TROPTIONS were not intended for Speculation

The original intent of TROPTIONS was not focused on speculation.  However, those who were early adopters of TROPTIONS are in a very good position when the next phase of the TROPTIONS stage happens.  That next phase is the increased opportunity to exchange TROPTIONS for other cryptocurrencies, spend TROPTIONS for goods and services using our mobile app, or cash out of the TROPTIONS for cash ... which seems to be a bad practice of exchanging an appreciating asset for a depreciation asset.

It is our hope to introduce TROPTIONS as a tradable asset that can be used for non-cash transactions.  This will literally require a convinced mindset that everyone must hold.  If not, you are going to default to a person who can only hope for speculative growth rather than your participation.

NOTE:  If at any point, you feel lost in the processes, change the word TROPTIONS for "Gold" which is also a non-cash asset.  If you could convince a person to accept gold, it is not a far leap to accomplish the same deal with TROPTIONS.  Just know that TROPTIONS "Have a Real Value" although they are not convertible ... yet to cash.  If the seller has to wait a while until TROPTIONS are exchangeable, they will likely have more value at that time anyway.

RISK:  Is there risk in owning TROPTIONS?  The answer is "Yes, there is a risk."  The risk is the potential for profit or the potential for loss.  Every stock has a risk, banks have some risks, and all cryptocurrencies have a risk.  If Bitcoin had a major internal failure or governments interfered, even Bitcoin could drastically drop in value.

REWARD:  TROPTIONS has a long history of value growth, so the core issue of valuation seems a foregone conclusion.  In addition, the real explosive growth will happen at Phase Two and Phase Three.  We are currently near the end of Phase One.  At this time, you will want to buy, earn, and trade to acquire TROPTIONS.  In phase one, this is the time that the pioneers, innovators, and freelancers are going to lay the foundation of their million-dollar future.  

Some are not comfortable in the Phase One era but will wish they had taken a much more aggressive approach when Phase Two hits.  Those of us who wholeheartedly embrace this unstructured period will find unlimited opportunities to develop the foundations of incredible wealth. 

If you knew that an overgrown field would one day, be covered by million-dollar mansions, would you have the courage to buy the ground in the hope that that dream could come true?  You might be wrong, but if you have calculated the facts well, you are a millionaire-in-waiting.

The question is asked, "Does the failure to believe and act on what others have trusted, make their faith void or worthless?"  Ask that question of Luis Pasteur who theorizes the incredible theory of microscopic germs that passed diseases from unwashed hands and tainted beds.  They scoffed at his beliefs until the truth was eventually realized. 

Didn't the beliefs of Christopher Columbus, Marconi, Thomas Edison, or Alexander Bell exceed the beliefs of many until the point that the hope was turned into reality?

In the remainder of this course, we will demonstrate the REALTY of TROPTIONS as a proven trade asset that many have and currently use for thousands of exchanges.  We are not requiring others to join in this exercise of faith and actions, but free trade should never be restricted by the criticism of some who lack faith in the currency or choose to take action when others step forward into a "Good Faith" transaction. 

Bitcoin was considered a Fool's errand prior to the year 2000, but some believed in its future value and invested time, money, and talent into Bitcoin's future.  Today, what so many experts decried, criticized, and scoffed at prior to 2000 is the fantastic reality of today.  The faith of those early adopters may have failed miserably but has graduated from earnest faith to palpable actions that demonstrate value.  The faith of a few who dared to believe has turned into a reality that millions now embrace.

TROPTIONS have a history, and no one should be surprised that there have been some legal challenges along the way. To be fully transparent, some have openly complained that TROPTIONS are worthless because they were not immediately exchangeable for cash.  As one very successful real estate investor has said, "TROPTIONS are not cash.  They are a way to get cash."  With TROPTIONS there is an opportunity to turn this trade asset into other assets.  If anyone fails in their opportunity to take action, the failure is theirs, not the asset.  If some early prospectors can turn a piece of ground into a gold mine worth ten million dollars, it may be time to get a shovel and start digging.

Though challenged by the SEC in Missouri, Garland successfully proved the integrity of TROPTIONS and won the challenge with a Motion to Dismiss.  Though we note that some have complained that TROPTIONS were useless, others have made extensive use of their TROPTIONS and become wealthy.  Though any currency requires the "Faith and Credit" of people who wish to use them, thousands of people are rewarded by their "Faith in Action".  

Never let the disbelieve and inaction of others annul the faith that you bring to something with a promise of better things.

Without going too deeply into the numerous types and uses of cryptocurrency, it is a good idea to understand some cryptocurrency terms.

Cryptocurrency:  The meaning of cryptocurrency is any form of currency that only exists digitally, that usually has no central issuing or regulating authority but instead uses a decentralized system to record transactions and manage the issuance of new units, and that relies on cryptography to prevent counterfeiting and fraudulent transactions.

Crypto Token or coin:  A crypto token or coin differs from Bitcoin or Ethereum because they do not have their own blockchain.  Tokens are created but use an existing blockchain system.  To transfer any cryptocurrency or token, you will be charged a small fee, known as "Gas Fees".  For TROPTIONS, you need a minimal amount of Bitcoin to pay the gas fees with each transfer.

Decentralized (DeFi):  Because cryptocurrency does not go through banking networks, they use a "Decentralized Finance" networks like Bitcoin or Ethereum blockchain for transfers, lending, or financing.  

Digital Wallet:  Since you do not hold your digital assets in a bank or credit system, people set up one or more digital wallets to hold and transfer their various digital assets.

How People Get Cryptocurrency

• Proof of Connection:  Organizations that want to set up a cryptocurrency network need to build, identify, and prove the integrity of their system, they pay cryptocurrency into your digital wallet for connecting your computer system (a computer miner system) to their super-encrypted network.  Proof of connection (POC) payment will likely end when the system is well established.  Think of the task as building an interconnected mesh across the country and world with a volunteer army of people with specialized computers designed for high-speed data transfer.

• Proof of Work:  After the network is built, it can reliably pass information at less expense and at greater speed than banking networks.  At this point, the system pays each connection used in the exchange a very small fee.  This is often referred to as "Mining" but there is a complex validation process that protects and passes a "block" of transfer on the blockchain system.  Every transaction is a public record that cannot be changed.  Any potential hack is blocked or instantly obvious to resolve the problem.

• Proof of Use:  Proof of Use means the actual exchange or trading of cryptocurrency.  Unlike the people working in the system of the blockchain, Proof of Use is the activities of buying, selling, trading, or exchanging cryptocurrency.  This aspect of the system is the private and commercial activities that make use of the blockchain.  This is a strong value factor with TROPTIONS.

• Proof of Stake:  Proof of stake means some have invested money or cryptocurrency to continue mining or to become a validator in the system.  This process is referred to as consensus where investors control the rules and operation of the system.

Blockchain:  The blockchain network is a marvel of technology that has been designed in such a way that it is impossible to hack or disrupt. The Bitcoin blockchain is the best-known, Ethereum has its blockchain, and others are emerging each year.  Blocks are a list of coded transactions formed into blocks of information.  Validation of blocks is required before the block is permanently added to the public ledger.

Fungible:  A fungible asset is easily exchanged for another asset.  It could be called "Tradable".  Most cryptocurrencies is not fungible or has limitations for what they can trade for.  NFT (Non-Fungible Tokens) are purposes not tradable, although they may be independently sold between seller and buyer.  NFTs are used to buy tangible and intangible items such as music, art, concert tickets, pre-offer stock, and more.

Exchange:  An exchange is like a scoreboard of various crypto assets.  When any crypto asset has established an exchange protocol between two crypto types, the owner can exchange his cryptocurrency for another cryptocurrency.  More recently, exchanges have been able to cash out some cryptocurrencies into fiat currency.  

Fiat Currency: Fiat money is a type of money that is not backed by any commodity such as gold or silver, and derives its value solely from the trust that people place on it. Throughout history, fiat money was sometimes issued by local banks and other institutions. In modern times, fiat money is generally established by government regulation.

Stablecoin:  A stablecoin is a token or coin that fixes its value to a certain valuation.  A stablecoin can be tied to the price of gold, silver, oil, or nearly anything that can be independently valued.  These coins are not considered speculative but are more stable than economic trends.
