The developer is Shin Hyun-sung, the founder of Timon (formerly’Ticket Monster’) and chairman of the board of directors, and the founder of Terra, a cryptocurrency used for payment in internet shopping malls.

Terra is a stable coin for payment of Terra Protocol. Luna is a mining token to stabilize the price of Terra.It was created to increase the price of Terra by issuing additional Luna when the price of Terra falls, absorbing the circulation of Terra. Terra will partner with large-scale e-commerce platforms and provide blockchain-based payment systems to various e-commerce platforms through Terra Alliance, and Luna tokens will be used for price stabilization.

Terra is a stable coin of Terra Protocol, and the amount of money is adjusted according to supply and demand. When demand increases, the protocol increases supply to stabilize prices, and when demand decreases, money decreases to maintain prices. Terra is pegged into several fiat currencies, among which SDT, pegged to the IMF’s Special Drawing Rights (SDR), is also used as the key currency of the Terra ecosystem system. On the other hand, Luna is a mining token to stabilize Terra’s price. When the price of Terra falls, additional Luna is issued, and the amount of circulation of Terra is absorbed by the additional issued Luna, increasing the price of Terra again. Conversely, when the price of Terra rises, additional Terra is issued to match the price. Luna’s value is generated based on Terra’s payment fee, and a small payment fee incurred every time Terra is paid is collected when the block verification is completed, and this is paid as a reward to the block creator.

5. MediBloc (MEDI)

MediBloc (MEDI) is a blockchain-based integrated management platform for personal medical information. Cryptocurrencies that operate based on MediBloc are called Medi Tokens. It was co-founded by Eun-Sol Lee and Woo-gyun Go, who were former doctors.

Eun-Sol Lee decided to start a medical information startup using big data for the first time. Then, through the introduction of an acquaintance, I got to know Ethereum and revised the plan. The co-founder of MediBloc, Woo-gyun Go, learned through Seoul Science High School Alumni Kim Seo-joon, and learned that they were having similar concerns, so they prepared to start a business in 2016. Eun-Sol Lee and Woo-Gyun Go founded MediBloc in April 2017 for a decentralized medical information system in which individuals manage their own medical information.

In November 2017, the MediBloc ICO was held to secure approximately 30 billion won in investment. At first, the development was started with Qtum-based QRC-20 tokens in China, but afterwards, it moved away from the Qtum platform and changed to Ethereum-based ERC-20 tokens.

MediBloc is a system that allows individuals to safely manage medical information scattered in several places using a blockchain. In the current medical information system, each individual’s medical information is managed centered on individual medical institutions. As a result, since patients have to create medical data for each medical institution separately, unnecessary tests or treatments are repeated, which wastes unnecessary time and money each time. In addition, unlike other fields, in the medical field, strict regulations on personal information are specified in detail, and the data is often not digitized. Due to these points, it is difficult to exchange and manage medical information. MediBloc was designed to solve this problem so that individual patients can manage medical information as the subject. In other words, it aims to transform the existing medical information system into a patient-centered medical information system and achieve decentralization of personal information by using blockchain technology.

MediBloc stores medical information in a decentralized data storage using blockchain technology. By storing only the hash value of the data, not the data source, in the blockchain, the integrity of the data can be verified and reliability can be secured. In addition, MediBloc records records of medical information and access information by others on the blockchain, enabling you to track how individual medical information was used. Since the patient has the right to access medical information, malicious access is in principle impossible.

6. Conun
