Tl;dr: Today we are proud to announce that Dr. Walter Tonetto will join Edgecoin in an advisory role. The Technopreneur and Visiting Professor at various universities all around the world, such as The University of Tokyo and the Waseda University in Japan, will help us in building a bigger brand and create valuable partnerships.

“I am excited to join Edgecoin as an advisor because this is one of the few ICO-based projects currently in play that aims to do something good in this world. It’s not just about money! By disrupting education and decentralizing key aspects, such as storing valuable data on the blockchain, Edgecoin technologies will benefit many people around the world. The core members of the team are already working on products and focused on building various solutions such as Smart Certificates and Validation Processes via optical recognition interfaces.” (tonetto@edgecoin.io)
