Interview with AIKON CEO: Having real use cases is key to blockchain mass adoption
AikonIt is a blockchain solutions provider whose mission is to accelerate the adoption of blockchain technology. In an exclusive interview with “Comparative”, AIKON CEO Marc Binder talked about his views on blockchain and the crypto industry.
BLinder said that out of 5 billion Internet users, about 50 million people use blockchain applications, and the large-scale adoption of blockchain was only 1% completed, and this process took ten years;But Binder believes we've taken the hardest step.
Binder predicts:“Going from 1% to 50% will take the next decade, and the next decade will probably go from 50% to 100%. We don't need 100 years because technology is gaining momentum in an accelerated manner.”
This is where AIKON comes in: helping people adopt blockchain technology.
AIKON's mission is to accelerate the adoption of blockchain technology by providing simple and secure solutions for businesses, developers, and consumers. It has completed $10 million in Series A equity financing, led by institutional blockchain investment firm Morgan Creek Digital, which also includes funding from Up2 Opportunity Fund, Hestia Investments, and Yugen Partners, and Mighty Capital Follow-up investments from Alpha Edison, and Think+ Ventures. Avalanche Ecological Fund Blizzard Fund joined as a strategic investor and partner.
Binder told “Comparative” that what makes AIKON unique is its ease of use. For example, AIKON's most important product, ORE ID, allows users to start earning digital assets as soon as they sign in with a Google ID, Apple ID, or Facebook account. Furthermore, the ease of use of AIKON does not affect its security. The chip AIKON uses to sign transactions is always encrypted in hardware, which means the private key will always remain hidden.
However, like many other crypto companies, a huge challenge AIKON faces is the lack of regulatory transparency surrounding crypto.This has boosted innovation in non-US regions.Blink hopes the US Congress will pass a law providing a specific regulatory framework for cryptocurrencies.
Furthermore, the government sees tokens as financial products, which means they are subject to intense scrutiny.Instead, Binder wants utility tokens to be considered revenue.
Bliner said, “If you use software to do something on the blockchain, you'll generate revenue and pay taxes on the revenue you generate... Every company, including software companies, has already done this, so it works the way it does... It's a clear practical token regulation system, and it can also create more jobs in the US.”
Due to financial regulation, many companies and innovations have entered the financial industry and not other categories. This in turn has created a divided market, a financial market for big players on the one hand, and a small money game on the other.
As for AIKON, Binder believes its success lies in building a more useful and valuable platform.
So what's the method? ---- Having real use cases that are valuable to people, such as an NFT marketplace or an NFT gaming platform, Binder said, “We should develop real use cases with user stickiness to establish a new bottom line for the industry.”
