Token Mechanics: 4.4
- Launch of BitFence ecosystem MVP with basic subscription services in Q3 of 2018. Enterprise firewall and F5 integration. Initial rollout of StingMiner solution.
- HNY Token is a utility token designed to be a proof-of-threat, a token that a person running our hacker-miner (StingMiner) will receive in exchange of hacker's digital fingerprint. We collect, analyze and correlate these fingerprints and provide 0-day thread feeds / blocking lists for our subscribers. Subscription packages and routers priced in HNY tokens beat in quality, speed and price all global threat competition.
- Token adds value to the project because it motivates community members to "mine" hackers and earn HNY tokens. Without the reward system, the platform would cease to work.
- Decentralized threat intelligence platform.
- Absolute max supply 1 billion tokens.
User Adoption: 3
