Is there such a thing as too much anti-fraud? Apparently there is!

Many of you would have realised that something strange happened on Tratok’s new smart contract over the last few days. The matter took a long time to investigate and get to the bottom of as since it was a Friday (a non-office day in the UAE). In short, our anti-fraud measures were too strong. So what happened? Let us break it down for you. As many of you know from our previous updates, we have automated filters built into Tratok to protect the community. Instead of opening on 2nd September as agreed, the good team at Hotbit were uber-efficient and opened as soon as they completed the swap. (We cannot blame them for being faster at their jobs than expected, and it is a credit to them, that they worked…

Scam Alert: A gang is targetting the public with old TRATOK

Scam Alert: A gang is targetting the public with old TRATOK

It has come to our attention following the swap that a certain community attempted to defraud Tratok Ltd and the public. The unofficial “Tratok Africa” chat, set up by so-called supporters appears to have been a highly co-ordinated scam organized with evil intentions. Out of 206 members of this community, 177 (over 85%) attempted to cheat the system following the upgrade of the contract. As shown and confirmed by the blockchain, and in what is clearly a coordinated action, fraudulent actors attempted to move over their old tokens to the exchanges in order to try to obtain duplicate swaps. Once we became aware of this and halted it, these criminals attempted to defraud the public via the sale of the old tokens through the decentralized exchanges, taking advantage of members…

Tratok is presently carrying out a comprehensive token swap across all Tratok holding wallets. The Team apologizes to the community for the delay in the execution of this operation which is due to the enhanced security implemented in the due diligence process. This is a necessary procedure to avoid people attempting to leverage the existence of two parallel tokens by swiftly transferring the old tokens and attempting to cash these out in a short transfer window. Despite working very closely with the exchanges and having blocked all deposits until the token swap is complete, our system has been able to actively detect such behaviour in some wallets and has immediately proceeded to ban these accounts from integrating with the new smart contract. The blocking of Tratok transactions across the exchanges…

The next month will be a busy one for Tratok and its supporters. With so many milestones set to be hit in the coming weeks, the team wanted to adhere to our transparency policy, a new standard we have set in this industry of crooked players and let the public know what is happening next. The team has worked through the weekend and will be working during the next few days (officially public holidays) to ensure all goes smoothly and management wishes to thank each and every one of them on behalf of the Tratok community. With that said, let's outline what is happening. Deployment of the third-generation smart contract: The new smart contract will be deployed in the next 24 hours and the token swap is taking place the…

Time for the third generation smart contract

Time for the third generation smart contract

Company, Dubai, Progress, Tratok
In the buildup to our launch of the pilot hotels in Dubai on 18 August (2019), we have requested the exchanges to suspend trading, deposits and withdrawals of Tratok. The new smart contract has successfully completed its security audit and is ready to be deployed with the new required features. The new contract will be deployed within the next five working days (Sunday-Thursday). Holders of Tratok do not need to worry about anything, they will receive the new token in a 1-1 ratio to their new addresses and this measure is being taken simply to reduce complications involved with the swap to a more enhanced and feature-rich smart contract. Please note, this will be the third iteration of the contract and will not be the final version. As the ecosystem…

Over the last few weeks, the team has been actively working to onboard hotels and accommodation providers onto the Tratok travel ecosystem. We are delighted to announce that after thorough testing we can announce a full launch date for Sunday 18th of August 2019. How is this different from existing systems? While other platforms simply feed results through metasearch APIs from third parties and use their tokens as a replacement for currency, Tratok has formed direct partnerships with these properties. As described in our whitepaper, Tratok actually leverages the power of blockchain in many ways to benefit all stakeholders with unmatched competitive advantages. In short, Tratok has solved the problems that others did not even comprehend. What happens next? Between now and then, the team will be working with pilot…
