Setting up a blockchain infrastructure is an expensive and complicated ordeal, and many may certainly be on the lookout for a solution that handles this for them. Simple Token is that solution.Simple Token enables all types of businesses to tokenize their assets. It empowers mainstream apps to have their own branded tokens, helping them set up their own crypto based economy on the Ethereum network. The Simple Token website lists over 35 people as part of its team, with other sections listing even more people as it advisors and extended team. Jason Goldberg is the CEO, with an 18 year career and experience in multiple countries and sectors. He is assisted by Sunil Khedar at the CTO position, and Ben Bollen as the Chief Blockchain Strategist. The team is well recognised by the investor community and markets in general. This is easy to see when you observe that it is backed by multiple VCs, including 500Startups, Greycroft, and China’s Tencent among others. OST is the future of business tokenization, allowing companies to have their own branded tokens without the costs of setting up a blockchain infrastructure. Faster transaction times, since transactions are run on their own side chains rather than the Ethereum Main Net, avoiding the Ethereum network congestion. With the team providing monthly updates, it’s evident there is still a lot of work to be done. The ostKIT alpha is close to being released, and serves as the first public version of the complete blockchain toolkit for businesses. ostKYC is already live, and uses the OST token for all billing purposes. Other tools currently in development include a block explorer and an enterprise-grade email marketing solution. There’s also the consumer-oriented wallet to keep an eye on, as well as an updated version of the Simple Token protocol itself. Check out CoinBureau for the complete review of OST.
A high-throughput, DAG-based protocol capable of powering any application. Wavelet | Wasm smart contracts powered by a high-speed ledger. We utilise our unique Wavelet probabilistic DAG-protocol mechanism to facilitate over 31k+ transactions per second and 0-4 second time to finality. What is Wavelet? Wavelet is Perlin’s directed acyclic graph (DAG) based protocol. It is a base-layer ledger which means anyone can build any type of application. It is designed to be the fastest, most secure, and most scalable distributed ledger solution in existence today. Wavelet is underpinned by a new and leaderless proof-of-stake consensus model (LPOS). One of our first use cases for Wavelet is international trade and commerce. Wavelet is well suited for increasing efficiency and transparency for complex processes (that have many inputs and output) such as supply chains and international commerce. While our first commercial focus is bringing Wavelet to the international trade and commerce arena, it is a very flexible protocol and can facilitate a myriad of use cases. Building on Wavelet is designed to be super easy, and we encourage experimentation. If we identify promising real-world applications built on Wavelet, the Perlin team will provide grants and support to facilitate commercial success. Get started here: https://www.perlin.net/
