This is a South Korean ICO that was very well prepared before launch.

The goal of ICON is to overcome the technological and commercial limitations faced by other Blockchains.

Thus ICON will allow a real hyperconnectivity between all blockchain.

What are the particularities of ICON?

The motto of ICON is: "the world without a central point and the world where every point is a simple connection to other points."

ICON is therefore a cryptocurrency connector between them, via the different Blockchain. But it is also a cryptocurrency connector with the real world.

As a result, ICON has implemented its own Blockchain technology and offers it to different industrial communities.

For example, for capital markets, insurance, universities or health care.

Thanks to the particularity of the ICON channel, these communities can solve existing inefficiencies and create links between different communities.

ICON technology

ICON Blockchain technology was developed by Theloop and is a loopchain.

It allows the verification of signatures without the intermediary of a third party.

In addition, it serves the environment of executing smart contracts on the chain.

The ICON white paper gives an example of its application in the real world:

"A Korean investor should be able to trade Apple shares in real time with US equity investors. While a diabetes specialist in a Korean hospital can study patients in Sydney and London hospitals. "

In other words, blockchains can be interconnected and exchange data via ICX tokens.

This entire network has been named Nexus.

The ICON Wallet

Thanks to the future wallet of ICON, which will be named ICONex, and which is in full launch, it will be possible to transfer and exchange currencies in real time.

In addition, this portfolio can be used in everyday life, thanks to its network including banks,
