“We were faced with the need to develop our own product having encountered real problems in the advertising industry, particularly in the native advertising and influencer marketing environment," project founder, Mikhail Savchenko says.

"An almost complete lack of campaign analytics, and difficulties finding a high number of quality influencers in a short time frame. Up until now there has been no blockchain-based advertising solution that really works.”
