Gladius, one of the recent ICO successes developing software to provide decentralized CDN (Content Delivery Network) and DDOS (Distributed Denial of Service) protection has thrown their weight behind the Horizon concept. Horizon is the first telecom ICO and will be deploying their high speed internet services in 2 countries in the Caribbean by Q4 of 2018. The company would be expanding to Central America and then internationally according to their whitepaper.

The company is incorporating blockchain technology in their services and the Horizon token whose pre-ICO commences in March is seen by many in the blockchain community as token whose utility makes it valuable since it is backed by a service oriented company that’ll provide for needs of a region.

For Horizon there are a number of benefits to partnering with a company with this technology. As an ISP their mission is to provide world class telecommunication services to customers and in doing so leverage the power of the blockchain. The solutions they create is what has attracted partners such Gladius.

The companies envision a number of mutual benefits. Horizon can as an ISP use their excess bandwidth as part of the global decentralized CDN and DDOS Network to help their customers and other companies around the world get protection from outages or attacks. This would provide a revenue stream for the company and ensure utility of all available bandwidth that might otherwise be wasted despite being paid for.

For customers, Horizon is building the Gladius software directly into customer portal alongside other partners. This shall allow Horizon Customer use and install the software correctly on their home computers creating another layer of decentralization.

The Founder of Horizon Telecommunications, Gilbert Darrell said that the company is confident that their ICO will meet its hard cap due to the interest shown by corporate and individual investors in the sale. Before the launch of their public presale, the company has received strong support and interest from private investors companies. The presale is an opportunity for those investors who could not buy the tokens during the private sale. The presale commences on March 19.

Gilbert A Darrell is the Founder of Horizon. He has 18 years experience in information technology and telecom solutions, a veteran in Fire and EMS Services, a crypto enthusiast and a member of the Bermuda Government’s Cryptocurrency Task Force.
