An Interview with CEO Jared Grey from ALQO & Bitfineon on Altcoin Magazine

A Decentralized, All-in-One Financial And Cloud Services Ecosystem

Hello Jared. Thank you for your generosity to allow us to get to know about ALQO and its Ecosystem. Firstly, please introduce yourself and your co-founders of the ALQO project.

Thanks, Emil, I appreciate this opportunity to share information about ALQO and Bitfineon with your readership. My name is Jared Grey, my background is in IT consulting and business development. I was an independent IT consultant for 14 years before becoming the CEO for Bitfineon GmbH, the private company that handles development for the ALQO crypto-currency. Kevin Collmer, our lead developer and CTO, has a background in video game development, specifically as the lead technical artist for CryTek, a German-based video game developer famous for developing the CryTek gaming engine. Our COO, Moritz Heimberg has a background in IT project management and is responsible for handling daily operational activities within Bitfineon GmbH.

Can you give us a detailed rundown of the $ALQO project?

Bitfineon GmbH aims to develop a complete all-in-one financial and cloud services ecosystem with ALQO at the center, powering the financial technology products we develop. ALQO started out as a simple masternode coin project, but the team’s ambitions quickly grew to include the ALQO universe and planetary system under the direction of former CEO, Kaan Hamarat. My plan as active CEO is to continue with the original vision and increase scope where it can add value to the ALQO ecosystem.

Very shortly we will release our cutting-edge crypto and fiat trading platform, Bitfineon. Bitfineon has been developed from scratch and includes a revolutionary matching and trading engine that executes trades in a unique manner which decreases latency to nearly instantaneous execution, regardless of the number of pairs being traded. With its unique software architecture, which utilizes GPU processing instead of the legacy standard CPU method, we’ve been able to achieve benchmarks of 63mm tx/ps, scalable in 2mm tx/ps increments where hardware restrictions are remedied. We anticipate Bitfineon’s engine will become the standard for crypto exchanges, and for traditional financial market exchanges as well.

Your ecosystem consists of the Bitfineon, Liberio, Janus, and CoinFolium. Can you briefly explain to us what they are respectively?

I’d be happy to explain the ALQO ecosystem, you’ve listed the current publicly revealed planets within the ALQO universe of products — I will provide a brief overview for each of them. Bitfineon is our next generation crypto and fiat exchange, regulated and licensed by FINMA in Switzerland (with plans to seek regulatory approval and licensing for operation of fiat services in the USA within Q1 2019). It will provide traders of all kinds a cutting-edge trading experience, it will include several unique industry disruptive products and services as well as fundamentally change the way exchanges operate at a performance level. We believe it will set a new standard in engineering for exchange architecture and challenge competitors who use white-label solutions to “up their game”. Many of the limitations in the current crypto exchange landscape are due to a lack of innovation with existing software solutions, and the custom developed nature of Bitfineon aims to change this when launched.
