WHY BLOCKCHAIN?

There are different reasons why Followine decided to use blockchain technology for the development of its project:

First of all, using the blockchain, we achieved a high-level security standard with investments that are significantly lower than those necessary for the development of a centralized database that is equally secure;

Secondly, the blockchain has allowed us to create a Token, the Wine Coin, the tool that allows us to put the final consumer at the center of our project. The consumer, actively participating in the Followine ecosystem, is the real protagonist: in fact, each scan allows the system to collect data useful for increasing its efficiency and effectiveness;

Again, a “guarantee agency” must be super partes, transparent and with information always visible and accessible to anyone who wants to see it. Above all, it is essential that there is no way to change that information and, to date, the only technology that guarantees the inalterability of data is the blockchain.

Token Sale and ICO Details

Wine Coin is the token created by Followine for the ICO and based on the ERC-20 technology, the same as Ethereum. Given the requirements, the structure and the causes of use, the Wine Coin can be qualified, to all intents and purposes, as utility token. For this reason, in light of the relative regulations, issued by most of the Countries in the world, it is possible to sell it as a mere IT product.
