CRYPTOKID: Athero: A New Era of Cryptofinance

What is Athero?

Athero is a platform designed to improve commerce by combining the Internet of Things and the blockchain technology. Athero incorporates a distributed operating system with an open blockchain, using virtual business to business networks and a consensus algorithm to realize offline solutions for information flow and product sourcing needs.

The platform includes a modular, end-to-end design that commits to correct-by-construction software and industrial extensibility.

Athero aims to allow people to easily write decentralized applications. This intention could enable innovation on the blockchain that could help distinguish the project. The mission is building better world through the technology. Athero token, THO, is a global, open source and decentralized supercomputer which anyone can access.

The ultimate goal of THO is to be the all-in-one solution and offer a wide array of services from market to finance. The clients – both corporate and private ones – will access all the services they need from a single platform. Blockchain technology gives us the chance to make your finances grow faster with better returns.

Why Use Blockchain?

Unlike the current centralized architecture, users in the new IoT system can dynamically develop data authorization mechanisms and interaction rules with devices, etc. Not only does the device perform a single function. The blockchain can simply interconnects the device, and also enables devices to interact with each other autonomously. Vendors no longer need to maintain hundreds or thousands of IT systems in different systems. Changing roles will attract more participants, reshape market rules and create entirely new business models.

Athero is a new blockchain protocol being developed and specifically designed and optimized for business and marketplace applications. The protocol will consist of a blockchain based “virtual machine” and defined modules of middleware software stacks, which operate outside the chain. It will support decentralized processes governed by smart contracts implemented on the network.

The Athero Token

THO is native crypto token currency which is being created to be integrated with and used on the Athero network, for decentralized applications on the network.

Initially, THO is proposed to be issued and implemented on the public Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-20 compliant token. Athero team will integrate its existing “wallet” function to hold THO balances, and allow users to utilize the tokens on the THO platform shortly after the token sale activated.

Token Sale

Initially, the company is offering 1,400,000,000 of the 2,000,000,000 initial Tokens. Tokens will be distributed in two crowd sales:

Private pre-sale(400,000,000)
Public Sale (1,000,000,000)

Private sale was available for 2 months. From July 10,2018 to September 16, 2018. Before sale, the team contacted 5000+ companies (+private individuals). They received invitations to Athero summits. Summits were at London, New York, Dubai and Tokyo. Athero raised 12 000 000 USD in private sale (at rate 0.03 USD per 1 THO).
