It’s no secret that “crypto projects” are all the rage, with investors and influencers becoming more associated with a variety of ventures and tokens. Beyond Protocol, a blockchain project operating in stealth mode which plans to launch this fall, threw a star-studded weekend party for their team in Miami. The party took place at a waterfront mansion on “Star Island,” known for its exclusivity and affluent residents.
The party was open to team members and a select group of people. Many celebrities and influencers attended the function, ready to celebrate the Beyond Protocol project and its future developments. Some attendees included Michael Bay, one of Hollywood’s most successful and celebrated directors, and television personality Jonathan Cheban, also known as “Foodgod,” who boasts over 3.5 million Instagram followers.
Other notable attendees included rapper/model Rubi Rose, Brazilian actress Anitta, internationally-known DJ Carnage, and professional basketball player Tyler Herro. Real Housewives star Lisa Hochtein also attended with her celebrity plastic surgeon husband, Lenny Hochstein. Kyle Richards, socialite and star of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, was also spotted.
A spokesperson for Beyond Protocol confirmed that there were no additional announcements made regarding the company. “We are still a stealth project,” Maurah Ruiz noted. “However, we felt it necessary to reward the team that continues to develop our game-changing technology, and look forward to making additional announcements in the near future.”
About Beyond Protocol
Beyond Protocol was started by Silicon Valley-based technologists in January 2018 to harness the explosive power of merging distributed ledger technology with IoT. Beyond Protocol renders devices probabilistically impossible to hack and facilitates machine-to-machine value transfer.
With security as a given, Beyond Protocol allows us to feel comfortable opening up our devices for collaboration. Using them like threads of yarn, the dreamers among us can weave together inventions we would have not thought to conceive.
From the smart phone — a camera, a touch screen, GPS, an internet connection — applications were built which revolutionized entire industries — for example, Uber and Instacart. From Beyond Protocol, mega applications can be engineered on top of any combination of IoT devices: from smart pills to satellites. Imagine a Nest smoke alarm paying a drone to put out a fire, and the drone making micropayments to weather towers along the way to determine the best route. Beyond Protocol sets out to be the ethical language of machines.
After over a year of R&D, in early 2019, the Beyond Protocol team put forth the first iterations of its novel technology to a handful of partners. The technology allows its partners, with one line of code, to 1. enable secure message brokering between devices through hardware signatures 2. equip devices with a cryptocurrency-based payment gateway.
Beyond seeks to build real, practical solutions for device security and payments from consumers to devices, and soon, among an economy of devices. Beyond envisions a future where good triumphs over evil and technology can work to create an exponentially more safe and more beautiful world.
This IoT blockchain-based security solution was first developed for HP by the co-founders of Beyond Protocol, Jonathan Manzi and Denis Benic. Manzi has spoken extensively around the world about the implications of technology for the future of humanity, at renowned events such as the G20 Summit, the St. Petersburg International Forum, and the Ambrosetti Forum. Benic previously served as the co-founder and CTO of various tech startups, including Print Box and Ink Labs.
Even in stealth mode, the project has garnered a significant amount of attention and has already gone “viral” in various cryptocurrency circles because of its massive potential. The ground-breaking technology will introduce a new framework for smart devices worldwide. The ultimate goal of the Beyond Protocol project is to “bring ethics back into technology for good.”
The project remains in stealth mode, and little is known about a future ICO (initial coin offering) or roadmap details. The team boasts high-profile advisors such as Stephen DiFranco, former SVP/GM at IoT Broadcom, Moe Vela, Former Director of Administration and Senior Advisor to Joe Biden and CFO to Al Gore, and Anoop Nannra, the Global Blockchain Practice Leader at Amazon.
