To discuss Donymony, we first need to understand the global search engine market and the e-commerce market. The primary tradable goods in e-commerce are physical items, mostly at the retail level. For buying and selling bonds or stocks, there is no direct connection to e-commerce; instead, financial software like HTS (Home Trading System) is used.
The global e-commerce revenue reached $2.6996 trillion in 2021, and it is projected to experience a rapid surge, reaching $3.2453 trillion by 2025. When we consider worldwide stock trading volume, the global market capitalization reached $103 trillion in June 2021.
As of April 2022, the KOSPI market capitalization stands at 2091 trillion won, with a daily trading volume of 10 trillion won. The KOSDAQ stands at 399 trillion won with 7 trillion won daily. Assuming 250 trading days per year, the annual trading volume reaches 4250 trillion won — implying trading approximately $206 trillion worth of stocks annually.
Astronomical sums are flowing through both e-commerce and stock trading. Even if exchanges and e-commerce companies capture only ~15% of revenue from sales, this revenue model could yield approximately $31 trillion globally.
Google dominates the global search engine market with a staggering 91.54% worldwide share as of 2020. Even when combined, Bing, Yahoo, and Baidu account for just over 5%. Since its launch in 1998, Google implemented 3,243 algorithm updates in 2018 alone, continuously refining its search quality.
However, the primary concern for most people is money and an unstable, unpredictable future. This is where Donymony enters — a search engine business focused exclusively on searches related to money. The name "Donymony" is derived from the Korean phrase meaning "What is money?"
Donymony covers all tradable goods with money: stocks, bonds, cryptocurrencies, commodities, futures, services, items sold by individuals, products by companies, minerals, agricultural products, fishery goods — all in one search interface that connects producers, consumers, and intermediaries.
Moreover, Donymony combines search with e-commerce. It not only displays items related to searched keywords but also evaluates their future value — calculating whether an investment will rise or fall. In essence, Donymony is a search site where commerce and predictive search capabilities intersect.
