Stratis is a powerful and flexible Blockchain Development Platform designed for the needs of the real world financial services businesses and other organisations that want to develop, test and deploy apps on the blockchain. Stratis significantly simplifies the development process for creating Blockchain applications and accelerates the lifecycle for Blockchain development projects. Stratis private chain allows businesses to deploy their own customise blockchain without the costs of running their own blockchain network infrastructure. The vision of the Stratis platform is to become a one-stop shop for all blockchain things, mostly becoming a blockchain-as-a-service (BAAS) platform. Technology-wise, it is a clone of Bitcoin’s core code, with a few enhanced features and written in C# language instead of C++. The team is based in the United Kingdom but has a decentralized structure with members spreading across the world. Several people on their management team are well-versed in enterprise software development using .NET and C# – a positive sign considering those are the project’s two primary languages. Chris Trew, the founder and CEO, has over 10 years of experience in enterprise IT and was a volunteer developer for the Blitz project. Stratis is competing against other BaaS projects in an increasingly saturated but gigantic space. Lisk may be the largest direct competitor in offering sidechains for businesses. However, Lisk is written in Javascript (not C#) and has sidechains that are more publicly available. The decreased privacy may be a turnoff to corporations looking to keep their code proprietary. The company held an ICO in June 2016 and manage to raised 915 Bitcoin.
QUBITICA is a community of more than 1000 developers, IT companies and investors from over 20 nations who want to work together to advance blockchain technology. This community has developed the QUBITICA infrastructure and since May 2018 it has been working on new projects under the associated brands and websites. Subcontracting is organized within the community. This requires the holding of QBIT, the paticipation shares in QUBITICA and all related projects. A long-term goal of QUBITICA is the development of project-related Smart Contract Solutions. These projects are treated as independent tasks and subprojects advertised individually. This allows us to achieve a flexible pipeline adapted to the needs of the market. The general developments in Blockchain will grow disproportionately, which is why it is the right time to find an intelligent solution to accomplish these tasks. What sets QUBITICA apart from an IT company operating in this field? QUBITICA is not an IT company, but an association of like-minded developers, IT companies and investors. IT projects will be handled under future brands and websites, and QUBITICA will be responsible for exchanging ideas, prioritizing projects and managing the shares in QUBITICA. QUBITICA's QBIT is an ERC-20 token that honors achievements. This honor is also comparable to shares. Developers receive QBIT for the implementation of projects and thus a share in the assets of the platform. A developer becomes, so to speak, a miner of shares through the power of his programming. He can now keep this QBIT, which represents his share of the overall project, or exchange it for Ether or USD / Euro. The mining of QBIT as part of the development of QUBITICA itself is no longer possible. This process is complete. QBIT is also the unit through which investors can acquire shares in the projects. To do this, buy QBIT either from the developers, any holder or via the platform. A purchase on exchanges is of course also possible. For new projects under other brands, the introduction of additional tokens is possible. QBIT holders automatically receive shares in this token upon issue.
