Rivetz Partners with CRIP.TO to Enable Interoperability Between Hardware Security Solutions

CRIP.TO devices and the Rivetz Trusted Application. The collaboration will ensure that secure messages can be sent between devices and that secure key management can be performed within the trust boundaries of two devices, providing users with a flexible solution that can enhance the security and usability of their collection of devices. Integrity and key recovery enable new models of decentralized security for messages and cryptocurrency transactions for the financial, consumer, and industrial markets.

CRIP.TO focuses on the communications side of the security and privacy equation. Its Black hardware device is the TEE equivalent of encrypted communications. With its custom-made FPGA chip and open standard encryption system, Black provides a second protected execution environment through which communications and data are encrypted and prepared for transmission. Through the integration on the blockchain, it is working to create a secure Open Network. The network will be opened to third-party developers to allow them to add their own apps, allowing them to also take advantage of the end-to-end encryption. Taken together, CRIP.TO Black and Rivetz-enhanced CRIP.TO Shield (an Android App) will allow users unparalleled security and identity protection for all their internet and mobile interactions.

"We are pleased to be working with CRIP.TO to support the full spectrum of hardware security for blockchain and secure messaging," Rivetz CEO Steven Sprague said. "The enhanced security that is provided by dedicated hardware offers owners the best levels of protection. The business and operational models of security provided by Rivetz and the RvT token can be extended to a variety of devices, and we are dedicated to supporting the full spectrum of capabilities."

"We're thrilled to be integrating CRIP.TO and Rivetz's technologies, recognizing the need for transactional and communication security and privacy on smart devices," CRIP.TO CEO Stefano Alberico said. "We each bring hardware-enabled solutions to meet this need."

Rivetz solves problems associated with consumer and machine-to-machine digital transactions. Rivetz's technology and services provide a safer and easier-to-use model for all users to protect their digital assets using hardware-based trusted execution technology. The Rivetz solution enables the device to play a critical role in automating security and enabling the controls users need to secure modern services. Rivetz leverages state-of-the-art cybersecurity tools to develop a modern model for users and their devices to interact with services on the Internet.

You’re in control of Apollo’s tokens. Vote today!

Apollo is trying something new for our ICO. We have just opened community voting on the price of our DAE (Digital Asset Exchange) tokens. You get to decide the final sale price of our tokens in the ICO. This has never been done before, and it will be interesting to see what the outcome is.

Voting is open to anyone in the world, and it will only take you a few seconds to the “Vote Up” or “Vote Down”. As of 1/3/18, any votes for up or down will result in an increase or decrease of $0.01 per vote. There is a slight catch, however. Every vote will also affect the maximum starting fee that Apollo may charge this year, and every vote will change the M.A.P. price that Apollo will offer to DAE holders. Please see our website for more details.

For those that are worried a high price will explode our market cap, remember this. Any unsold tokens will be locked in the main DAE token contract, and you will have the key. Apollo is giving all ICO buyers free AVO tokens. These voting tokens can be used to block or allow any DAE token withdraws from the main contract. This process will essentially remove any extra DAE tokens from circulation, and will lower our starting market cap. We estimate that with this process, our starting market cap of circulating tokens will be the same no matter what starting price DAE tokens ends up.

Interesting Blockchain Happenings You May Not Know

While everyone was looking out for the daily price of Bitcoin or Ethereum, how they can join an ICO, or kicking themselves for not investing in crypto when prices were low, we set out to find a few interesting happenings going on in the Blockchain world.

8: Blockchain Food Safety

Wal-Mart Stores, JD.com and IBM Corporation and Tsinghua University entered a collaboration whereby they can track food information through the Blockchain Food Safety Alliance. The initiative allows companies to share information which is then stored by Blockchain, so that suppliers, regulators and consumers can get insight as to how food is controlled from the farm to the table.

Happiest of Holidays from Datum

To all of our friends and followers, happiest of holidays from the Datum team. It’s been a whirlwind of a year, to say the least!

Twelve months ago, Datum was just the seed of an idea. Over the course of 2017, a number of key pieces came together — like the growing demand for blockchain technology, the rise of ICOs, the phenomenal surge in the valuation of cryptocurrency, and the awareness of the role data plays in all of our lives. These crucial developments led to the creation of the DAT token, which raised over $11 million (current ETH rate: 750 USD) for the project and funded Datum’s data marketplace.

Being COO of our growing team has been challenging, as anything filled with so much newness and innovation tends to be, but breaking new ground can be exhilarating, too. That said, taking the data marketplace from its beta phase to something tens of thousands of people around the world use on a daily basis is Datum’s top priority for the upcoming year. It’s our mission to help you claim your rightful place as a data creator and #GetPaid for all that you do online.

Meet Bitclave – the decentralized search engine

BitClave is a blockchain startup developing a decentralized search platform called BitClave Active Search Ecosystem (BASE). BASE revolutionizes how people interact with search engines and online advertisements. It provides compelling alternative to the current walled off garden of online advertising by prioritizing personal privacy and user control over data while supporting a transparent and streamlined process for businesses to reach customer audiences.

How did we get that idea? I have a solid background in cybersecurity, so data privacy has always been among my top interests. I was always very curious about data management and how people can monetize their data. This background eventually led me to the idea of a platform where users have full control of their data versus somebody reselling it. Then we started discussing and brainstorming with our future co-founders – Patrick Tague, Emmanuel Owusu and Vasily Trofimchuck, and after a few brainstorm meetings we started working on several prototypes.

We all had different backgrounds – corporate, academic, startup and decent experience in different industries, including cybersecurity, blockchain, marketing, business development, which is really helpful. Our team is truly international – some of the co-founders are based in the US, some in Singapore, and we also have people in Russia. So, we were building an international project from the very beginning.

Waltonchain Beta Testing Guide

What is a beta test?
The Waltonchain Beta Test includes a series of interconnected blockchain tools which will all be tested by the community. Feedback from the community will help improve performance, reliability and the user interface.

The Beta Test is conducted in a testnet environment where user facing aspects of the blockchain explorer, online wallet, client wallet and miner are available for public viewing and examination. The Blockchain explorer and the online wallet is at a release stage, whereas other tools are still in their beta stage. During this testing period, Walton will remain transparent and allows for a full critique of the user facing elements of Waltonchain.

Of course, depending on the results from this beta release and testing, further development may be required. This is normal and expected. All feedback will be noted and appreciated.

Why should I participate?
With Waltonchain being an enhanced fork of Ethereum with a custom DASH X11 algorithm, Proof-of-Work + Proof-of-Stake-and-Trust, Masternodes and Guardian Masternodes, it is a blockchain that is hard to ignore. Coupled with the fact that Walton have ready-to-go RFID tech and partnerships with both public and private sector companies and organisations, people across the world are eager to see it work. By taking part in the Beta you can learn at first hand about the functionalities of the wallets, block explorer and miner. Standalone PoS is not present in the beta, but will be implemented in the mainnet.
