ICO News Ferrum Network

Ferrum Network

The First High-Speed Interoperability Network for Real-World Financial Applications


About Ferrum Network

Ferrum Network, designed by a distributed systems expert with over ten years experience at the world’s biggest tech companies, was built to address two fundamental problems impeding the mainstream adoption of cryptocurrencies: slow transaction speeds and the lack of interoperability between networks.
Instead of building a standalone network, Ferrum Network leverages the values of existing blockchains and connects them to a high-speed transaction layer that enables peer-to-peer transactions of any digital asset.
Like the Lightning Network for every blockchain, Ferrum’s revolutionary technology brings networks together, for a consistently high-speed, low-cost transaction experience for every digital asset, whether BTC, ETH, XRP, EOS, Zcash, and so forth. It even works with fiat currencies. Laser-focused on user-acquisition and global adoption, Ferrum Network has built a vertically integrated line of financial applications on top of the network, allowing users to buy, exchange, transact, and store any digital asset with no counter-party risk.
Imagine buying a cup of coffee with bitcoin and the transaction clearing in milliseconds; exchanging BTC for ETH over a high-speed cross-chain decentralized exchange; or sending digital fiat to a user halfway around the world with no third-party intermediary…it is all possible with Ferrum Network.

TECHNOLOGY UNDERLYING FERRUM NETWORK

Innovative technology built for high-speed peer-to-peer transactions of any digital asset is the backbone of Ferrum Network and its products.
The DAG ledger
A decentralized ledger similar to a blockchain but designed for fast transactions, minimal network fees and no miners

Import/Export Value
Ferrum is designed to import/export values, including fiat currencies

Unifyre Wallet & FRM Storage

Our non-custodial crypto wallet — Unifyre Wallet — will be made public in the upcoming months; the estimated timeframe for launch is June-July, in-time for users to download and be prepared for the distribution of FRM. However, Unifyre is NOT required to store FRM (ERC) initially. The ERC-20 FRM will be sent to bounty participants in accordance with the above-timeline.
The official mainnet will go live sometime during Q4. All FRM holders will then be required to swap their FRM ERC tokens to the native Ferrum blockchain.
Ultimately, we suspect the majority of our community members will be utilizing our unique and user-friendly wallet to claim FRM. We’ll outline all the details about Unifyre when it’s completed and ready for public use.

Moving Forward

In the upcoming weeks and months, we’ll be releasing a series of informative articles related to various aspects of Ferrum Network. We are in the process of structuring and finalizing those key pieces of materials and will be made public in a timely manner.
Ferrum Network has successfully concluded the pre-sale and we are about move into our our Private sale stage. Our public sale is set to occur mid-Q3, with more details being provided in a later document.

Note to Prior Bounty/Airdrop Participants

ICO News MoCo VR

New era of human communication


The MoCo Platform will create the next age of anonymous social networking services, in 3D and 4K VR, while providing a means for its users to monetize their creativity and talents

About

VR Motion Communications (MoCo) is a revolutionary communication platform that will change the way you communicate online. In the first stage, we will present the world’s first anonymous 3D Avatar Chat and Creator’s Market.
The MoCo Platform’s online Marketplace will include both an Official Store where users can purchase official avatar-related content, and a Free Marketplace where users can monetize their own original avatar-related content.
In the next stage, the MoCo Platform and technology will enable large scale, simultaneous broadcasting of Live, 4K/8K, 360° Real Time VR streaming events around the world, such as World Cup Soccer games, the Super Bowl, and sold-out concerts by top level musicians on the other side of the world. It will also create a whole new VTuber universe - but in 3D - where users can also monetize their creativity and talents.
In the final step of our platform development, we will combine our A.I. Video Compression, AI Automatic 2D-3D conversion, and A.I. motion capture technologies, to make it possible for users to enter the VR space using only their web cameras or mobile devices. Users will also be able to create their own customized Avatars or Character bots and move around in, create and experience user-made virtual RooMs, and communicate with their family or hang out with their friends.
Users will be able to create and monetize their own original copyrighted content, supported by the MoCo cryptocurrency token. Based on blockchain technology, the MoCo Platform and the MoCo Token will allow the development and buying and selling of original content in a fast, safe, and secure ecosystem. Individuals and businesses will be able to meet and communicate with others all over the world safely, and they will also be able to create their own personal monetized economies utilizing their own talents and ideas, and engage in secure commerce with each other as well.

Technology

MoCo’s disruptive key technologies will open up a world of new communication possibilites.
With our revolutionary technology, we will bring people around the world closer to each other by allowing them to communicate naturally and seamlessly - and anonymously, if they choose- online via their original Avatars, and within the VR space as 4K scanned versions of themselves, just like there are really “there.”
In this platform of the future, users will even be able to use all of MoCo’s amazing A.I.-based technological tools to create their own customized social or private virtual universes, and monetize them, too!
A.I. Video Compression
This technology can reduce 4K/8K content data to 1/100th ~ 1/1000th its original size, while providing lossless video quality (this includes 2D and 3D video content)
This technology enables large-scale distribution and delivery of 3D and 4K/8K Live and recorded content (such as 3D avatars, streaming video, and even 360° VR content), to TV’s and computers and mobile devices over the Internet
Patent Status: Issued (see White Paper for more details)
A.I Motion Capture (A.I.-based 2D→ 3D Automatic Conversion System)
Through Image Analysis and Machine-learning technology, and the collection of visual and sensory data, we will be able to offer a Visual Information x A.I. Network that until now, has never been attempted by anyone. This technology captures live motion and minute gestures in real time through web cameras and mobile devices, and then learns it and translates it into a HD 3D representation (both for 3D Avatar Chat system and later stage 4k+ live, scanned VR version) of the original subject which can then be moved and controlled using only a smartphone or web camera.
Patent Status: Filed and Pending (see White Paper for more details)

Platform

The MoCo Platform is a multi-layered, multi-dimensional project whose every step of development changes the world a little more. It does so by destroying old paradigms and creating new possibilities.
The first step is to provide the world's first -anonymous- 3D Avatar Chat and Creator's Market where users can communicate, create, buy and sell safely and securely
In the next step, MoCo will begin live-streaming chat and other services which will completely disrupt the current video streaming and video tuber models.
The final step will be to make immersive 4K/3D VR communication possible for anyone that owns a smartphone or web camera, from anywhere in the world
With the MoCo token, users will be able to purchase and sell original goods and subscribe to any streaming content quickly and efficiently and without any loss in quality. All Avatar and Video content will be managed by the blockchain to protect and manage copyrights.
