2. BCD Advisory Board
We are pleased to announce the arrival of the third board member of our company: Patrick Duvaut, Head Of Innovation at IMT — Institut Mines-Télécom.
Institut Mines-Télécom is a French public institution dedicated to Higher Education and Research for Innovation in the fields of engineering and digital technology.
3. New corporate Website
As promise in our last AMA, our new corporate website is available: https://www.bcdiploma.com
4. Development
Hoël, our full stack developer has arrived early September. This will allow us to accelerate development, our first objective.
The first version of BCDiploma will be ready at the end of September, as expected.
In particular, the smarts contracts and the Reader DApp will be fully operational.
Here is the updated roadmap:
5. Patent
A patent (utility patent) on EvidenZ framework will be registered in the United States within 2 weeks.
6. Token
We know that a “big” exchange is important for the community: we have just discussed again with the Circle team (Poloniex) today. But it must start with an increase of our marketcap.
We believe that the launch of the platform, the announcement of new customers and the circulation of BCDTs will be our best assets for this during the fall.
As expected, the BCDT token will be used as soon as the product is released into production under the conditions specified in the Whitepaper.
Let’s remember this will be one of the first token of an Ethereum mainstream application in production.
It is this real and concrete use that will be the basis of communication around our token.
