SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

Oh, I shouldn't have the room.

So, first of all, Bancor is a nonprofit organization, which is a new model that has been rising in the last years.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

The most important example to that is Ethereum itself.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

So, you heard about Ethereum?

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

It's like the competitor to Bitcoin.

And they did their own fundraising and the entire project in a nonprofit way.

entity and still people that are involved are still making money to your question because those are token based economies so everyone that was involved in ethereum got some ether in the beginning when it was on 30 cents price and today you know the price is like i believe 200 dollars

So, everyone that was involved made a lot of money, but the organization itself that run Ethereum is a nonprofit, and Bancor is similar to that in that respect.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

Bancor is also a token, and we are essentially solving a different problem.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

We solve the problem of liquidity, liquidity between currency.

This is a very important thing because it allows you to- Just clarification there, Ariel.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

So it's actually pretty similar.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

I'm talking about any kind of liquidity that works today with crypto tokens.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

But if you know, there are a lot of assets that are already like moving to the blockchain, like tokenized on the blockchain.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders

So there is a token that represent gold and token that represent dollars.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

And you can actually convert those tokens back to gold and back to dollars.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

when you want.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

So real assets from the real world are already represented on the blockchain.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

So you can really say that this is an environment that can host everything.

SaaS Interviews with CEOs, Startups, Founders
787: Crypto: With $163m Raised, He Launched the #1 ICO

And we solved the problem of being able to convert one form of store value currency, bond, whatever it is, a token, one to another, which is what people use stock market today.
