Cash-Backed Cryptocurrency Approach
Traditional Cryptocurrency
Most cryptocurrencies derive value primarily from market speculation and perceived utility, leading to price volatility.
Value fluctuates based on trading activity rather than underlying utility or assets.
Often disconnected from tangible real-world value systems.
Wikey®IMS Approach
Bay bonuses maintain direct connection to hard currency reserves through Quotas for Spread Packages.
Value grows through increased participation and engagement rather than pure speculation.
Interchangeable nature allows fluid movement between different forms of value within the ecosystem.
The Internet of Experience (TIOE) Concept
Physical Interaction
Digital Connection
Content Exploration
Community Participation
Unlike traditional Internet of Things (IoT) systems that focus on data collection and device control, the Internet of Experience emphasizes meaningful multidimensional engagement combining physical interaction, digital content, exploration, and community participation in balanced measure.
NFC Tags: Technical Implementation
Tag Specifications
Standard NFC tags in Wikey®Spreads operate at 13.56 MHz frequency and conform to ISO/IEC 14443 standards, ensuring compatibility with most modern smartphones.
Programming Process
Tags are encoded with NDEF (NFC Data Exchange Format) messages containing either direct URLs or unique identifiers that resolve to specific destinations when processed by backend systems.
Security Features
Advanced implementations utilize password protection, encryption, and read-only locking to prevent malicious modifications, while backend systems implement verification protocols to validate tag authenticity.
Physical Integration
Material properties and environmental factors are considered when embedding tags, with specialized designs for paper products, outdoor deployment, and optimal scanning positions.
QR Code Implementation Techniques
Generation Standards
QR codes are created with standardized encoding processes to ensure reliable scanning across various devices. Error correction levels (typically medium or high) maintain readability even when codes are partially damaged.
Visual Design Integration
While maintaining necessary contrast and quiet zones, designers incorporate visual elements that harmonize codes with spread aesthetics, including custom colors, embedded logos, and decorative frames.
Printing Techniques
- Thermal Printing: Cost-effective for on-demand, community-generated spreads
- Laser Printing: Higher-quality output with enhanced contrast for durable applications
- Industrial Printing: Professional integration for large-scale spread production
Testing Procedures
Rigorous validation across multiple smartphone models, scanning applications, lighting conditions, and scanning angles ensures consistent functionality in real-world scenarios.

Security Considerations for NFC Implementation
Tag Tampering Protection
Physical measures include tamper-evident packaging, destructible antennas that break if removed, and tags that permanently change status when tampered with, creating visible evidence of manipulation attempts.
Data Validation
Server-side verification examines contextual factors such as user history, location relevance, and transaction patterns to identify potentially fraudulent interactions.
Encrypted Communication
All data transmission between scanning devices and backend systems uses standard encryption protocols like TLS/SSL to prevent interception of sensitive information.
Transaction Limits
Value caps and scanning frequency restrictions mitigate potential losses from security breaches while maintaining user convenience.
QR Code Security Measures
Visual Security Features
Official spreads incorporate distinctive visual elements that are difficult to reproduce, helping users identify legitimate codes from unauthorized duplicates.
Digital Signatures
Cryptographic signatures embedded within QR data allow the scanning application to verify code authenticity before connecting to digital content.
