https://medium.com/talla-inc/announcement-botchains-new-partner-program-initial-launch-partners-561adea085ff

Quick update on progress on the BotChain since we've last posted. We've announced our initial launch partners, which include several leading bot development companies. In discussions with partners and other potential partners, we've seen a strong need for our use case, which will help drive trust and adoption of A.I. bots and other robotic process automation software.

 Here are a few stats from the group that has joined us so far:

"Combined, BotChain’s early partners represent more than 50,000 developers and upwards of 150,000 enterprise and consumer facing bots that interact with nearly 400 million end-users globally, sending billions of messages each month."

Advisor Michael Maloney, former​ ​blockchain​ ​CTO​ ​at​ ​Ernst​ ​and​ ​Young, and Chris Curran of PwC chime in on the need for BotChain: https://coinidol.com/leading-artificial-intelligence-startup-announces-further-innovation/

We're proud that we're probably the first ICO to get a quote from a publicly traded accounting firm. Happy reading!

The BotChain Team

Hi,
The development money was for our first product, which you can reference here: https://talla.com/. Additionally, the token enables bot companies and developers to coordinate on a marketplace that none of them control.
Thanks,
Steph and the BotChain Team
