Pepo & Fab.com founder Jason Goldberg is the brains behind Simple Token a protocol for apps to build branded tokens, bridging the gap between cryptocurrencies and mainstream consumer apps. With the Simple Token protocol any app can launch branded tokens on open scalable side-chains. This new technology is a revolutionary way for any already existing business to take advantage of tokenization in order to better serve their clients. The CEO of the company an 18 year tech veteran see's the evolution and life cycle of a token as a network of networks. He believes that Metcalfe’s law should come into play over time as the overall demand for ST increases as an exponential function of the number of nodes in the network. This Week In Startups › jason-goldberg So how exactly does this work? The token is powered by their ERC-20 token “ST” which enables any company to stake ST on Ethereum main-net to mint their own branded digital currency (aka “tokens”) on open scalable side blockchains, in a crypto-graphically auditable manner. They are also building a software suite for managing your token economy, enabling easy access and simple steps to tokenizing your business without the long and expensive process of a Token Generation Event or Initial Coin Offering. They are referring to the process as a branded token that can be used for major purchases or micro-transactions. This is different than so many loyalty-point programs, the value of your branded token is always clear. Customers can spend the branded tokens they earn on your products or to purchase from each other. They can convert them into the branded tokens of any other company tokens using the Simple Token platform. Granted like any big idea this is a daunting and ambitious project!.
