Development

Platform

We continue to extend APIs and services that BASE provides to applications (application that were developed internally or by 3rd parties). Last week we added APIs that allow to prove ownership of Ethereum wallet (we changed the scheme from MatchICO, and now to prove the ownership you do not need to send transaction and spend GAS, you just need to cryptographically sign a message from the address you are proving). This week we are working on APIs and service that will compute your ETH/ERC20 wealth.

As by BitClave vision, all the above information is owned by user, is encrypted by user’s keys and user decides what information and with whom he is willing to share.

As the first product using BASE data, Desearch will allow businesses to customize their offers based on the “Wealth” parameter, that was computed and verified in BASE.

Marketing

The exciting part that we were working on the week of March 12th and the week of March 19th was the soft launch of our platform — Desearch — a decentralized search engine focused on all things crypto. We announced the soft launch of Desearch to our user community as well as on ProductHunt. We have a detailed blog post covering the story here.

You can follow the official Twitter handle of Desearch here and you can join the official Desearch Telegram community here. Happy to hear more feedback about Desearch there.

In the coming weeks we will be focusing on getting more feedback on Desearch and facilitating in making it better for everyone. We’re also coming up with more content on different platforms for Desearch and our future major product launches. Stay tuned.

And yes, we’re always looking to hire the best of the talent in Marketing. Please feel free to apply or refer to anyone who you think is a good fit here or write us to info@bitclave.com
