Hello, Satoshi clubbers! Another AMA took place in Satoshi Club and we would like to introduce to you the AMA session with our friends from Kaizen and our guest was @Evgen_AI – representative of Kaizen. The AMA took place on the 30th of November.
The total reward pool was 500$ and has been split into 3 parts.
In this AMA Recap, we will try to summarise the most interesting points for you.
Part 1 — introduction and questions from the Website
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Greetings dear Satoshi Club ❤️
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Today we are excited to announce our AMA session with Kaizen Finance!
Today’s guest is @Evgen_AI! Welcome! Great to have you here! 🥳
Evgen:
Hey guys!
Glad to be here.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Hello and welcome to Satoshi Club, @Evgen_AI❤️
Nice to e-meet you 😊
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
The pleasure is all ours 😉
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
How are you doing?😊
Evgen:
All good, we have a tight schedule this week. Several IDOs were planned, as well as Community Sale. And we’re 100% ready to rock🤘
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Wow! A lot of work🔥🔥🔥
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
And we’re super excited to know more about all that you have in store for us!🚀😁
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Let’s start! Introduce yourself, please. How did you get to be involved in crypto & Kaizen
Tell us please about your position in Kaizen
Evgen:
My name is Evgen: I’m a Co-Founder
and CEO of Kaizen.Finance and we’re going to revolutionize the concept of token
launches in the whole industry
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Give us a brief introduction to the project. What is the essence of Kaizen.Finance?
Evgen:
Kaizen is a Token Lifecycle Management Platform allowing projects to automate all necessary work-related to token launch:
- token creation
- vesting schedule automation
- audits
- staking
- token sales
- token protection at launch
and much more WITH NO CODE needed
It’s really simple and allows to create own project with minimal efforts.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Sounds great 👍
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Token lifecycle – that implies anything pre, during, and post a project’s token launch, right? 🙂
Evgen:
We let projects concentrate on marketing and product, taking all technical work and ensuring the amazing launch
Yes, everything related to tokens and their launch is included.
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Gotta agree with @GoldRocket27 – sounds amazing! 🤩👏👏
Evgen:
We have a lot of know-how already implemented.
But we still trying to remain flexible for projects’ requests.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Also, we would like to know more about your team. Who is on the project team core?
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Flexibility is a really important quality in business.
Evgen:
Oh, that’s an amazing guy we’re working together for more than 10 years
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
This must be a dream team.
Evgen:
Professionals in software development, cybersecurity, design, marketing, and pr are onboard, guys, so no worries😉
We have an already working product.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Is your team anonymous?
Evgen:
Not really, we’re open for the investors, exchanges, and all the necessary routines. We’re just trying to keep our privacy, but not anonymity👌
The main reason behind our privacy policy is really simple — we intend for Kaizen Finance to operate as DAO. We feel that not linking human face to the organization would allow everyone to focus more on what Kaizen is as a system and what ideas it represents.
At this point we believe that our results speak for themselves: we already had 3 successful launches. All 3 were great innovative products that provide huge value to the community. It is safe to say that everything we are offering to the market has already been tested in the field: TGE automation, managing vesting schedules, protection against bots and snipers, staking, and everything else in-between!
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Where is your office located?😁
Evgen:
Come on, it’s time for a global team of professionals!
We’re all around the world 🙂
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Great😁 just based on your name, I decided that you are my countryman 😉
So…
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Thanks for a great introduction, we will have several questions selected for Part 1. Ready to start?
Evgen:
Haha, maybe 🙂
For sure!
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Let’s go then 🚀
Q1 from Telegram User @ProwGrowl
The unique benefit of Kaizen, however, is its innovative feature enabling collateralized tokens to be sold, swapped, staked, or otherwise hypothecated. As far as I understand collateralized tokens are only used within their own ecosystem and might be a meaning reflecting the price of the trading token. Does it mean that they can be sold or swapped only internally? Please also explain how exactly it works for the hypothecated purposes. Do you the accumulation of a certain value by a closed period of time? What advantages does it provide to users?
Evgen:
Good question, I see @ProwGrowl read a lot about our project and really
appreciate it!
Usage of collateralized tokens provides a lot of benefits for all.
It provides transparency for investors, making them 100% sure to receive the tokens from the projects and making them able to trade the locked value of the tokens at our kDEX.
Collateralized tokens allow users to invest in the projects in the same conditions as top VCs do.
It also makes the community see how the project tokens are distributed making the tokenomics really clear.
And of course, it’s really convenient for the projects, solving the vesting schedule issue and making all related routines automated.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
It is really quite a complex system and for this, it must work like a Swiss watch. please share your tokenomics with us.
Evgen:
So yeah, it’s a really good solution, you can trade/swap it everywhere and use it in all the possible ways as usual tokens.
But make sure you know the whole utility value we provided to these tokens before you unlock it 😀
Oh, we’re gonna be the first project with fully transparent tokenomics, tracked in any blockchain.
Our token address is the same for ETH, BSC, and Polygon.
And all the rounds of our tokenomics would be reflected in collateralized tokens!
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Convenient feature👍
Evgen:
So anyone would be able to track all the project tokenomics and see how users
operate with it 🙂
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Is the tokenomics paper for the $KZEN token not available for the public yet?
Evgen:
I’m sure it’s much more cool and usable than some pdf or smth, absolutely untrackable and impossible to check.
We shared everything in our chat.

Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Nice, thank you for sharing 🙂
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Thanks for sharing😊
Let’s proceed to the next question🚀
If you don’t mind of course 🙂
Q2 from Telegram User @Pavel_Jarosh
Kaizen is also working on bringing solutions to industry problems. The Kaizen Finance platform, protocol, and its unique features address a wide range of known industry issues for the benefit of both token issuers and investors and the market itself: providing token price management mechanisms, unlocking locked liquidity, building trust in presales, or enabling tokenomics transparency. Are you ready to share your innovations if they prove the features declared being 100% effective? Has their efficiency or code correctness been approved by any external party? Thank you!
Evgen:
Of course!
Let’s start with the fact our entire code has been audited by well-respected 3rd parties. For instance, we have received certification from CertIK which you can see on our website.
So all the services are well-audited, proven, and secure.
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
So great and relieving to read that you’ve aptly anticipated the issue and have already taken care of that 🚀
Evgen:
BTW trust and transparency are our core features.
So of course we’re ready 🙂
We use our Kaizen Protocol features described in the whitepaper and own several patents.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Thanks a lot for the answers. tell us a little about what you have planned in the roadmap for the near future.
Evgen:
Would be happy to share much more when we have the whole suite of our services
patented!
Here’s our roadmap:

Basically, for the past 6 months, we have been steadily ahead of the schedule.
And our developers show really good traction
We plan to add more networks to our list of supported blockchains (Tron, Avalanche, and Polkadot are next on the list)
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Thank you for sharing it @Evgen_AI !
We will get into some of the roadmap details shortly, as we have had a very specific question about some of Kaizen’s upcoming milestones! 😉
Evgen:
And of course, we’re really focused on our kDEX release where both VCs and retail investors will be able to trade the future value of their locked tokens!
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Brilliant, thank you for the comprehensive answer 😁
Are you ready to proceed with the next question or would you like to add something else?
Back to the future then! 🚀😁
Q3 from Telegram User @kimterbear
Recently, Kaizen Finance announced that there is no minimum amount required to stake, but of course, the more the staked tokens, the better the earning will be. Does Kaizen set a maximum amount of tokens to be staked? Are we only allowed to stake xKZEN tokens? What is the highest APR we can reach in staking tokens? What are the distinct features that your staking platform has compared to other staking platforms that offer the same services?
Evgen:
Wow, a lot of great questions in this one-stop-shop.
Let me answer it 1 by 1
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Please, take your time 😉
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Feel free😁
Evgen:
Does Kaizen set a maximum amount of tokens to be staked?
No, we’re open to it and incentivize our users for supporting the project as hard as possible 🙂
Are we only allowed to stake xKZEN tokens?
Right now nobody has KZEN tokens, so yeah, only xKZEN token staking are open. But of course, we have staking options for KZEN token too!
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Let me reveal some little secret – I see xKZEN tokens of our early investors much more valuable than KZEN
And here’s why😉
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
@LuisMe7 thanks bud 😉
Luis Merino 🇪🇸 | Satoshi Club,
🙂👍
Evgen:
Holders of $xKZEN tokens get exclusive access to unique opportunities that will
make even such a small investment worthwhile:
✅Holders and stakers of $xKZEN will be incentivized with allocations in
partner-projects launching using the Kaizen platform and get a chance to buy
their tokens before they hit the market.
✅You will be able to stake $xKZEN to earn additional rewards in tokens of
projects that launch using Kaizen tools.
✅In addition to token rewards from partner projects you will receive APR in
$xKZEN tokens.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
https://kaizenfinance.medium.com/this-is-what-you-really-get-for-your-100-allocation-in-xkzen-c38aa786bb0c
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
@Evgen_AI allow me to open a small parenthesis here: xKZEN are the tokens that
IDO participants receive for locking KZEN tokens in the protocol, is that
correct?
Evgen:
What is the highest APR we can reach in staking tokens?
APR is the least valuable thing you can get staking our tokens. Our core focus
– provide the best utility value for our supporters, so we prepared a lot of
cool benefits for our stakers😉
Yep, you’re right about the Solana realization.
On Ethereum, BSC, and Polygon our IDO participants would immediately get xKZEN and be able to take part in the whole Kaizen Ecosystem!
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Thank you for clarifying! Beautiful… and value-packed design! 🔥🔥🔥
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Smart solution👏👏👏
Evgen:
What are the distinct features that your staking platform has compared to other staking platforms that offer the same services?
Ooh, a lot of! We already described it pretty well in our Medium and I shared a piece of it here.
You can believe me, stakers of xKZEN/KZEN would have huge benefits!
We have a wide ecosystem, so we’re one of the projects able to reward our community properly
Not just with some APR 🙂
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
It seems to me that you’ve addressed all of the topics raised by @kimterbear’s
question 🥳 Thank you! 👏
Evgen:
Those were smart questions!
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Followed by in-depth answers – I’m pretty sure @kimterbear will be very
satisfied, thanks again! 😉
Let’s hop onto the next question, shall we?
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
You were great😁
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Hahaha 😂 Love the GIFs segues and reactions 😁
Here we go!
Q4 from Telegram user @Highpee
You said that your No-Code token creator can allow anyone to create tokens, launch token sales, distribute to investors, and get audited without a single knowledge of programming or codes. Can you explain the requirements to create a token using your token generator/engine and what it will cost for these tokens to be created on each of the multiple blockchains you support? What are the procedures or guides to follow? How are newly created tokens validated for genuineness before your platform is used to distribute them to unsuspecting investors?
Evgen:
Important question!
Right now all the projects should pass simple due diligence to be launched by Kaizen, but in the future, we may open it for a wide audience.
All the features have a price, so project creator can just mark everything he needs, make a payment and continue to the automated smart contract deployment
We create all tokens/staking options/token sales by the several audited templates, so users are always safe as well as operations with the tokens.
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
Very straightforward 😁
Evgen:
Hope it’s more transparent now 🙂
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
It is, thank you very much 😉
And the next question ties in perfectly with this one, in my humble opinion, as it gets into the topic of HyperID KYC process
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Many thanks for your clear answer 😉
Q5 From Telegram user @iceVermithraxx
You mentioned that For users to be able to use full features of Kaizen Platform, they must pass kaizen HyperID KYC and you mentioned that this process doesn’t just require any Valid ID as Kaizen is building a platform that is safe from impostors and people who are legally banned from taking part in crypto space. What are the requirements for a user to pass kaizen HyperID KYC? How long does the Kaizen HyperID KYC processing take? And lastly, do you consider a partnership with other Platforms to help easily identify impostors and people who are banned from crypto Space?
Evgen:
Basically, HyperID is our subcontractor, taking care of user authentication and KYC. So, please name it HyperID, not Kaizen HyperID😅
KYC is a very important part of every project, so with HyperID we make sure we’re operating by law
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
This is an essential note.
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
My bad, corrected! 😉
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Thanks for helping me figure it out.
Evgen:
All the requirements for KYC process are straight as the industry standards and usually, it takes up to 30-40 mins to pass the HyperID KYC.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Strongly agree with you about the importance of legal grounds.
Evgen:
Right now more than 15k users already passed the whole process to take part in our IDOs and Community Sale and we’re really proud to have so engaged a community.
HyperID is one of the most strict and demanding KYC providers, so we’re 100% confident in our users and sales participants.
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Great number👌 thanks for sharing this information.
So if you don’t mind we can proceed to the last question of this part
Oops😁
Evgen:
Sure!
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
This is the last question for this very first part of the AMA, then we’re heading into the LIVE part of the session 😁
Q6 from Telegram User @victorogb
It is understood that Kaizen Finance will look to roll out its kDEX beta, have a kDEX Public release, and enable Tron support, all within this current quarter and the start of Q1 2022. Bearing in mind that these products are essential to the full integration of your services, may we know the stages with your kDEX development, what are some of the results and contingencies you hope to address with your kDEX beta? Also, can you give us an idea of expected kDEX features when it actually goes public, what notable operations can we conveniently carry out? Finally even as kDEX Finance continues its expansion across different chains, would you also provide seamless cross-chain support for all user activities?
Evgen:
Amazing!
kDEX is already live in beta and investors of all the projects launched by Kaizen use it right now! We assume the volume of all the locked tokens as hundreds of billions of dollars, so it seems to be a pretty big deal🙂
You can see kDEX as a decentralized exchange to trade collateralized (locked, vested) tokens.
And of course, it’s cross-chain, same as the whole Kaizen concept!
So seamless cross-chain support for all user activities is coming very soon🚀
Gold Rocket | Satoshi Club:
Yes, it is an amazing concept to put together all the solutions for a project. it makes their life very much easier.
Paul Mont | Satoshi Club:
It truly sounds great 👍
And by the way, I personally love the choice of Kaizen -literally “continuous improvement” – as the project’s name 🙂
Evgen:
It definitely is.
Part 2 — live questions from the Telegram community
Q1 from Telegram user @meml97
I was doing a little research about Kaizen, and what does the word mean in Japanese because the name of your project caught my attention, and I came across the fact that Kaizen is a Japanese business philosophy meaning “change for the better” or “continuous improvement”. Of course, this made me even more curious, so, can you tell us more about the origin of Kaizen and how did you came up with it as the name of your project? Also, knowing now that means change for the better, I was wondering, how does Kaizen Finance align with this philosophy? What kind of changes are you making in the platform but also WITH the platform on the Crypto and Blockchain industry, for the better?
Evgen:
A minute of philosophy 🙂
We’re changing for the better the whole concept of token operations like vesting, staking, trading, and much more, creating a new token ecosystem standard for the whole industry!
And we’re doing it continuously, so it’s a continuous improvement.
Pretty simple, right?😉
Q2 from Telegram user @Arisabela
Nowadays we all want solid projects to make staking with short-term profits, I found your project interesting since you can earn additional rewards in tokens of projects that launch using Kaizen tools, could you tell us what requirements apply so that a project can use your tools? Do you have some examples of the partnerships your project has and how useful is Kaizen for the crypto universe?
Evgen:
Sure, we’ve already supported the launch of Weld.Money, IOEN, and Scotty Beam projects and announced partnerships with all of them.
Total Value Locked of Kaizen.Finance raised to $120M+ after these projects, and much more are coming!
We have pretty simple metrics and requirements for the participants, so I think we’ll provide Kaizen launch tools to 100+ projects in 2022!
Q3 from Telegram user @pakheriyanto
Nowadays, NFT and Metaverse are booming & popular.
The market follows the hype of them.
Do you have any plans related to NFT & metaverse?
Evgen:
Yep, you can see the NFT-launch support in our roadmap Q1 2022.
It would be big! I think NFT and Metaverse projects would take 60%+ of all the projects launched by Kaizen.
Q4 from Telegram user @Chrisboy5
I see you have lots of partnerships but didn’t find details on your AUDIT session. So can you tell us if you did and what was the Audit report? How safe will the investor’s assets be secured here?
Evgen:
I already mentioned all our code is audited by CertiK, but it’s not all. Stay tuned to our media and you’ll see a REALLY big announcement about Kaizen security.
We’re here to make a trusted space in crypto🏆
Q5 from Telegram user @Ecmq10
Hello Kaizen Finance team. I read that Kaizen Finance enables projects to use the platform to perform token sales. What conditions and requirements do you demand of those projects that wish to carry out the token sale within the Kaizen platform? Will users who are loyal $KZEN token holders and want to participate in those token sales have any advantage or benefit? Is it a requirement that the founders of the projects approve the KYC in order to carry out the token sale on Kaizen? Must the project have its code audited before requesting the token sale on Kaizen? Thank you!
Evgen:
Oh yeah!
All xKZEN and eKZEN token stakers (you receive it at IDO and Community Sale) would have a chance to receive allocations in all the next projects using the Kaizen Platform!
It’s a $100 ticket to extraordinary opportunities in the future!
And all KZEN token holders and stakers will be rewarded with lowered fees for platform services and expenses.
BTW did I mention that all the payments for Kaizen Platform services will be made it KZEN? It’s a constant buying pressure all of us are looking for in crypto😉
Q6 from Telegram user @cryptoflower13
What is the difference between a token creation and management platform like Kaizen and a Launchpad? Are you a launchpad?
Evgen:
Kaizen provides projects with a wide amount of tools and takes care of 100% of projects’ technical demands to make an amazing token launch.
While Kaizen can host a pre-sale and make a promo-only with its name, sales are not the only option we offer to the projects 🙂
So we’re definitely not a launchpad, we’re much more!
Q7 from Telegram user @adaatalay
Kaizen Finance creates a unique market for trading with the future value of locked tokens. How do you determine the future value of a locked coin? What values is it fixed to?
Evgen:
Good question!
Locked tokens just represent a future value known as a “future” on financial markets. I’m not ready to buy Bitcoin’s future value for a higher price than now, so I suppose the value of locked tokens will vary from their current price to some discounted value.
It’s a billion dollars trading volume market we’re gonna open for you guys!
Q8 from Telegram user @jazzmusic2000
Will the community sale have any country restrictions? Where can we find all the information? Will a whitelist be required to participate?
Evgen:
All the participants for whitelisting in our Community Sale should pass KYC and follow the steps from this guide:
https://kaizenfinance.medium.com/guide-this-is-how-you-get-whitelisted-for-the-kaizen-finance-community-sale-a938327d22bc
We’ll have a lottery and FCFS to let to take part in the sale for as many community members as possible!
Q9 from Telegram user @jirencrypto
How does Kaizen protect projects and investors from Bots making disasters during launch? Can we participate in sales with peace of mind?
Evgen:
Yes, you can be sure that projects launched by Kaizen won’t be affected by the sniping and front-running bots!
Our latest launch, the Scotty Beam project, still has 0 cases of front-running and it’s proven by Dextools!
Q10 from Telegram user @Tahsinahmett
How many xKzen tokens will be needed to participate in Kaizen launches?
Evgen:
Of course, we’ll have some minimal amount, but generally the more tokens you stake the bigger allocation you may have. Please keep updated, we plan to reveal the whole details very soon😉
Part 3 – Quiz Results
In the final part, we tested your knowledge in terms of Kaizen. They’ve prepared 4 questions for this part. The total reward pool for the quiz was 300$.
