Blockstack is a new internet for decentralised apps that you access through the Blockstack Browser. It uses the lower layers of the traditional internet and focuses on decentralising the application layer and provides key tools and infrastructure to developers enabling decentralised storage and decentralised authentication & identity. Users run decentralised apps through the Blockstack browser and give explicit read/write permissions to their data. There are no middlemen, no passwords, and no massive data silos to breach.

Launched in May 2017 (no ICO and no pre-mine), the leading-edge platform enables real-life use cases beyond the ZEN currency, including the ability to privately chat with others, publish information and go anywhere on the web with complete privacy. The team is working towards opening up the Horizen platform to anyone, anywhere in the world so that people can start building privacy-based applications with the option to selectively monetise their creations.

That boring legal stuff

However, their presentations or services provided do not infer any kind of endorsement by Coinscrum, its organisers or Scrumline Ltd of any possible investment opportunity via their products and services or in any related ICO (Initial Coin Offering). Crypto-tokens are a high risk investment and you should always carry out your own thorough research and due diligence before deciding whether or not to invest yourself.
