We are glad to announce the partnership between Opacity (https://opacity.io/) and QLC Chain (https://qlcchain.org/). This collaboration will enhance the QLC ecosystem with storage services in communication applications.

QLC & OPQ

The partnership has two aspects. First, the two teams will explore layer-2 storage solutions based on QLC Chain. In the next-generation network applications, storage is a critical feature that requires security, privacy, and speed which Opacity can provide.

Second, QLC Chain’s new consumer-oriented product, Confidant, will adopt Opacity as backup storage with a lower storage cost and equally optimal privacy protection mechanism.

Confidant is the privacy management platform developed by the QLC Team, with a unique and privacy-focused account system. Confidant, a combined hardware and software solution, facilitates communications and file sharing in a decentralized manner. Every user’s digital activities, contacts, content remain encrypted with his/her own private key.

Opacity is launching its main platform Opacity 1.0 on June 5th. Prior to launch, Opacity will give 200 users who hold QLC token a free 128GB subscription for a year of zero-knowledge private storage with Opacity.

QLC Chain will also give 5 of its protocol token QLC to 200 Opacity community members, so they can experience the soon to be launched staking-process and receive Q-Gas. Q-Gas is the fuel token used in the QLC ecosystem which carriers and enterprises will consume when using telecom billing and clearance services.

To celebrate the partnership, QLC Chain offers $20 USD coupons for purchasing the Confidant. The promotional code “QLC+OPQ” is valid from June 1 to July 1.

QLC Chain and Opacity look forward to helping promote privacy-centric applications and give control of private data back to the users.

Details on how to proceed with the giveaways will be posted shortly on the Opacity and QLC Chain Twitter profiles following this announcement.
