IZX history
What is IZX? Today IZX is a developing platform which brings together advertisers, ICO projects and users. Also, it’s a game with 10 different types of tokens and audience approaching 100.000 players from 80 countries. But what was in the beginning?
All started in May 2017. IZX founders got an idea of creating a groundbreaking product that could change advertising world forever and turn blockchain into a new trend.
In August 2017 our team released the first test version of IZX app on IOS and Android. IZX is not just a game with the same idea as PokemonGo. It’s a permanent market analysis, constant work with our community and testing in businesses.
The first big testing was made at the “Blockchain is a new Russian oil” conference, where our team pitched and announced the start of the first promotion planned for this event. Participants could exchange all gathered tokens for real prizes right at the conference. It had a great effect: imagine dozens of people wearing suits hunting for desired yellow tokens! Later all of them became the first members of IZX community.
Fall 2017 was the time for testings with Russian offline businesses: restaurants, cafes, and shops. We offered our users the tokens of our partners to catch and exchange them for discounts or free desserts. But soon we realized that we don’t have to limit ourselves and decided to scale our business processes and start growing not only in Russia, but in the whole world.
In October 2017 IZX took part in the battle of ICO projects in Barcelona and took the 2nd place. Then the startup began to grow: respected in the blockchain world advisors Abas Jalil and Doctor Corbett joined our team, marketing offers poured in. Later we participated in international conferences in Singapore and Bangkok, where IZX project started becoming famous. Members of the crypto community got interested in creative solutions, and the audience of the project continued its growth not only in Russia, but in the whole world.
In winter 2018 our team began partnership with US VR Global. This company is engaged in building of Virtual Reality (VR) parks. We agreed on integrating IZX tokens into their VR parks in different countries. Together with US VR Global we made a few presentations on the Asian market and visited 3 big conferences: D10E and Deconomy in Seoul, and CryptoEvent-Indo in Jakarta. The Asian community showed a great interest in IZX project. In Indonesia, the team acquired new partners who joined the startup, and also found an adviser from South Korea, Mr. David Hwang. He is the founder of the Blockchain Research Institute and a well-respected person in the local crypto community with vast experience in the distributed database technology.
In addition to the Asian Roadshow, spring of 2018 was significant because we started doing airdrops of other ICO projects on IZX platform. This caused real excitement, and the App audience jumped from 20.000 to 48.000 users in less than 1 month.
Our users share with us their ideas of the ways to improve the platform as well as their experience in the game. We have already received screens with tokens placed in Antarctic and Bermuda Triangle, multiple rivers and lakes. Some of the users were lucky to catch tokens while driving their cars and even in their friend’s fridge.
Now IZX team is growing and gathering around itself enthusiasts and experts. There is still a lot of work ahead: we have big plans. The audience is growing and the popularity of the project is growing as well — this means that our startup will keep improving and making our users even happier.
