  • What problem are you solving?
  • What is the status of your technology (product stage; MVP; pre-product)?
  • Have you raised any money so far and if so: how much?
  • Are you planning for an "initial coin offering"?

What is a blockchain?

Blockchain is part of the technology stack of Bitcoin. At its core it is a distributed data storage system. Anyone who participates in this network keeps their own data store and stores all of the transactions that ever happened on the network - (also known as 'distributed ledger'). Entries are stored within a cryptographically secured chain of blocks. At every stage, the network of participants must agree about the latest block of transactions. Agreement is reached through a process of majority consensus, eliminating duplicate entries, double spending etc. This process and the cryptographic layering of the blocks makes the agreed blockchain irreversible and immutable. The ‘history’ of events within this technology cannot be modified by any one of the participants without majority consensus from the group.
