Kasta (KASTA) is a cryptocurrency that is built on the Ethereum blockchain with an aim to become the preferred digital payment option for the tourism industry in Russia and the CIS. Kasta was founded by Vasily Yakovlev, the CEO of Xsolla, a global payment solutions provider. Kasta is an exciting new digital currency that makes use of distributed ledger technology to enable it to provide enhanced security and background checks for customers travelling and using the platform. Kasta's unique feature is its SmartCard payment technology, which allows users to make payments without ever revealing their private details. The SmartCard is a secure, blockchain-based device that stores the user's private wallet information, allowing them to pay in real-time with Kasta. Kasta is also different from other digital currencies in that it provides a two-tier security system. The first tier is the SmartCard, and the second tier is the Kasta token, which is the underlying asset that makes the system secure. The Kasta token is based on an ERC20 standard and is used to enable online payments and transactions on the platform. The Kasta system is designed to offer greater transparency and trust to customers. The Kasta platform follows a strict KYC (know your customer) verification process to identify and verify its users and reduce the risk of fraud and money laundering. This ensures that the platform is securely operated and is compliant with local laws. Kasta is currently being used in the tourism industry and is accepted by many hotels, resorts, airlines, and other travel related companies throughout Russia and the CIS. The Kasta token is available to trade on some of the major cryptocurrency exchanges, such as HitBTC, KuCoin, and Uniswap. Kasta offers exciting opportunities for investors and merchants, who can be sure of a secure and compliant platform to transact through. As Kasta continues to expand, it is expected that more companies and merchants will adopt it as a payment option, increasing its acceptability and helping to drive its value.
