TrustED is an academic credential verification service, that brings honesty, legitimacy, and convenience to the human resources industry. The TrustED infrastructure enables universities, and online educational and training Institutions to store, as well as authenticate grades, credentials, or certificates, leveraging the distributed ledger technology of blockchain.
Academic credential verification are a valuable tool in pre-employment background checks, since they confirm whether or not a candidate has earned the diploma or degree claimed, hence highlighting a candidate's qualifications and possibly revealing information about your candidate's honesty and integrity."
Trusted Platform identified a huge gap in the market worthy of exploring. Currently, there exists no universal database of records where an authority can go to verify academic credentials of any one individual, nor is there one for these individuals to securely store their credentials. Venturing into this will make Trusted King and the market base will be enormous considering the number of institutions that will register and investors will surely reap great benefits as a result of the market size.
Some Institutions go extinct and are not contactable, with this increased risk, obtaining past credentials of Individuals becomes a problem and are sometimes at a very high cost. The same principle applies for students who may be transferring to international universities from incapacitated academic institutions which makes it impossible to contact and verify the academic data. Huge market potential here for-Trusted, and the potential rewards surely will be worthwhile.

TrustED TOKEN (TED)
For managing payments and receipts on the TrustED platform, the Ethereum mainnet provides a suitable solution. The TrustED Token (TED) will be based on the ERC20 standard. The motive behind utilizing this standard is due to its wide acceptance and interoperability as well as its ability to easily be implemented into other services. In order to minimize the high transaction fees and avoid the low throughput of the Ethereum network, the TrustED platform accounts for all transactions within the system using a utility token TCRD (TrustED Credits) that is hosted on TrustEDs private blockchain network. This yields significantly lower transaction fees and higher scalability of operations within the TrustED network.
