InoCoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency built with the sole purpose of helping prospective new businesses find funding. Our aim is to draw in a large pool of funding applicants and pick the ones who prove they deserve the investment. We base our decisions on a set of criteria that are purely objective, built as a result of our extensive experience with investing. This guarantees that InoCoin will keep growing, because it is not directly tied to the market, but only to the select, high-quality startups we choose to fund. They use blockchain technology because we believe in its future, because we are business people and have a logical outlook. Providing transactions many times quicker and cheaper than are currently the norm makes blockchain the perfect decentralized system. It gives every person the opportunity to be a successful investor, whereas a classical banking system limits investment options to just a small circle of well-funded individuals. InoCoin works both for startups and for investors. We strive for win-win deals. Every successful startup is a win both for investors and for InoCoin. INO coin is a utility token that will pave the way to the future of crowdfunding. Unlike most other platforms, it is also a universal payment tool and, apart from investing in and funding various projects, it will also act as a currency that allows people to take advantage of the innovations which are being developed thanks to it. After investing in INO, for example, you can receive smart services and all kinds of products from the projects you support. Ino Coin is the global platform for funding and guiding prospective young blockchain projects to success. It’ s backed by a variety of people with extensive technical and business skills– a team that will share advice and provide constant direction to young teams in addition to providing funds.It’ s a unique decentralized system for joint decision making between the lead team, project representatives and all investors and owners of the currency.Share knowledge, ideas and shares through InoCoin.
iExec is an open-source, decentralized cloud computing platform, running on Ethereum blockchain. iExec allows decentralized applications (dApps) an on-demand access to computing resources and technologies on iExec cloud. iExec has built a blockchain network where dApps can take advantage of cost effective and high-performance resources such as servers, databases, SaaS applications, web hosting and computer farms. iExec’s native cryptocurrency — The RLC token is the primary asset used to access services in iExec infrastructure. RLC is short for “Run on Lots of Computers.” iExec is headquartered at Lyon, France. It was founded by Gilles Fedak and Haiwu He, both are serving as Chief Executive Officer and Head of Asian-Pacific Region of iExec, respectively. Oleg Lodygensky is the Chief Technical Officer. Gilles Fedak received his PhD from the University of Paris Sud in 2003, and has been working as INRIA (Inventeurs du Monde Numerique) research scientist at ENS in Lyon, France. Similarly, Haiwu completed his M.Sc. and PhD from the University of Sciences and Technologies of Lille, France. On April 19, 2017, iExec launched its token sale and raised more than $12 million in exchange for 86,999,784 RLC. In order to support dApps, smart contracts, and their platforms, iExec takes processing-intensive computations off-chain so as to keep a blockchain’s on-chain functions running smoothly. To do this, iExec makes use of XtremWeb-HEP, an open-sourced Desktop Grid Software. Desktop Grid computing (also known as Volunteer Computing) pools unused computing resources to be used by applications and platforms, and according to iExec’s whitepaper, XtremWeb-HEP “implements all the needed features” to make this possible on a global scale, including “fault-tolerance, multi-applications, multi-users, hybrid public/private infrastructure, deployment of virtual images, data management, security and accountability, and many more.” Essentially, with this software, dApps can utilize any computing resource in the iExec framework to run their programs. In their whitepaper, the iExec team lays out the project’s competitive landscape and explains these competitors in relation to iExec. They’re quick to note that decentralized cloud storage providers like Filecoin, Storj, and Siacoin are not direct competitors, and it’s easy to see why. While iExec could theoretically take a step in this direction as it matures, it’s not a storage platform; it’s a computing platform. This does put it in competition with other decentralized computing protocols like Golem and SONM. Both of these, however, are taking aim at a different animal. Essentially, they’re both building a decentralized supercomputer on blockchain technology, while iExec is targeting dApp development and sustainability. Both look towards a future of a blockchain-powered, decentralized internet, but their functions, while sometimes similar, are more complementary than conflicting.
