We’ll give you a quick description of each blockchain/token, its function, their competition and where you can learn more. Ardor is its built off of NXT blockchain tech, an alternative to Bitcoin and Ethereum's blockchains. How does Ardor distinguish itself? The platform claims unlimited scalability, safe and reliable Smart contracts similar to ethereum however using NXT technology, create and customize your own "child chain" which can interact with the main chain as well as any other "child chains" created. Ardor is a great solution for any private or public organization that deals with a lot of data. In this day and age we are constantly hearing about how popular company's are hacked, and now your personal data is just out there to go to the highest bidder. Implementing blockchain technology provides for more reliable security, with a much lower chance of customer data being compromised. Additionally, some organizations work with sensitive information. While this information is often protected heavily with standard security measures, these organizations are still looking towards blockchains to be the standard of tech security.

This episode of Blockchain Token; What is it covers AdEx! In this series, we will cover the different types of blockchain platforms and cryptocurrencies on the market right now. We'll give you a quick description of each blockchain/token, its function, who is their competition and where you can learn more. AdEx is a blockchain-based ad exchange aiming at disrupting the existing online advertising landscape and address its significant problems: advertising fraud, privacy and consent to receiving sponsored messages, and the number of middle men involved that raise the price of the goods and services without adding and quality to the products.

These tokens will be paid directly to the publishers with no middlemen. According to AdEx, no fees or commissions will be taken by AdEx themselves. While this is technically true, there is an AdEx Fund where the Advertisers can purchase tokens at the moment of registration.

The ADXT token would be a Proof of Stake style token that would mint additional tokens to attract users to the system. While I don’t believe the uncertainties to be big red flags, they are something to keep an eye on as this project progresses. At this point, BAT is their only strong competition in the Ad Tech space.
