How BUZZcoin works

BUZZcoin does not implement any ICOs. It is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux. The BUZZcoin project is rethinking solving the issues around bee hives by trying to ensure that they are monitored and maintained.
This is done through The BUZZcoin Hive Mind Device ("BC-HMD") and its Queen Middleware Masternode ("BC-QMM") which are the BUZZcoin project's first products. These devices are innovative, gathering essential information for beekeepers in real time. It tries to reward its users by providing cryptocurrency for those who are involved in this and helping with the essential data.

This system uses smart contracts to power its devices and thereby contributes to providing this essential data. These smart contracts also make it possible to get rewards according to contributions and data collected. This straight forward process and data collection system first saves it locally before it is downloaded or uploaded when a network connection becomes available when it is then processed in the cloud. Once this is done, it is able to calculate its reward rate ensuring some accuracy and efficiency to its reward system.

The data collected is analyzed and rated in accordance with set ethical bee keeping standards. The reward class is set by the Queen Middleware Masternode Device. More information and essential details about the reward component of this system are to be announced following the BUZZcoin Core Upgrade and the BC-HMD prototype testing phase.
