PR: Alaricoin – Alaric’s Treasure in a coin

November 28, 2017 By Crypto Reporter PR

Alaricoin is a token inspired by the Legend of King Alaric’s Treasurе, and designed as underlying token currency of the ethereum platform.

The legend has it that in a distant 410 A.D. King Alaric I, along with his army of Goths, after sacking Rome, moved to southern Italy with the goal to proceed to Africa. Coming into the city of Cosenza, however, he was attacked by malaria, which ended his life.

According to the Visigothic custom, Alaric was buried in the bed of the Busento River, along with the treasure captured in Rome and his armor: 25 tons of gold and other jewels.

The treasure hunters went after after it for many years but to no avail.

Recently, treasure search has been resumed and Cosenza (the town of interest) became a destination for curios tourists visiting places mentioned in the legend.

International media have also been interested in the myth.

In Cosenza the Alaric Statue was erected at the junction of the rivers with the Museum of Alaric to follow soon.

The region of Calabria is the destination for millions of tourists each year, owning to the Alaric myth, beautiful coastline and crystal clear sea.

Alaricoin has a specific goal of being adopted and used by merchants and people in the already active Tourist System in Southern Italy and in many activites and projects linked to the Legend of Alaric.

The Alaricoin Team is working to establish agreements with local authorities to let alaricoin users enjoy special tourist services: Tourist Bus, Guided Tours, Museum Entrances, etc.

At the same time agreements are struck with merchants and tour companies to offer perks to tourists who use Alaricoin.

The local community will use the token for real service. The tourism trend in Calabria Region is quite upbeat: http://www.visitcosenza.it
