FOLLOWINE - First True Limited Cryptocurrency

Counterfeiting is a global issue and has been for many years; especially in the wine industry. But advances in technology have given counterfeiters the ability to make ever-more-convincing counterfeit goods. Fast.
Counterfeit wine not only hurts profits, but it can also do everlasting damage to a brand and put consumers in danger, especially because we can’t be sure what is inside the fake bottles.
In order to combat this issue, new solutions are constantly being developed to protect, authenticate and trace bottles leaving vineyards. The combination of various leading protection technologies provides maximum security for wines and spirits.
Those solutions can be a unique digital identification, where a NFC chip is fitted on using an encrypted and tamper-proof certificate which is readable via smartphones for instance (authentication, detection of opening and drilling). These tags adapt to the customer’s needs: behind the label, along the side of the neck, in the capsule or above the cap.
Followine is an innovative Italian start-up founded in June 2017 with the aim of developing a system capable of effectively counter the phenomenon of wine counterfeiting. The Mission is to create a global ecosystem that connects the actors of the wine world and consumers, encouraging the emergence of new international models of communication and business. What differentiates Followine from competitors is an in-depth study of the counterfeiting phenomenon. More than three years and about € 30K have been spent to travel the world, gather testimonies and data able to improve the system. The know-how acquired is certainly the secret sauce, the one that no competitor can ever subtract.
Followine is the first ecosystem that aims to fight against the counterfeiting of wine, by using the Blockchain Technology. Followine is a circuit based on Wine Coin, in Token that provides self-sustainability and inclusiveness to the entire Followine circuit.
By using the blockchain, we will achieve a high-level security standard with investments that are significantly lower than those necessary for the development of a centralized database that is equally secure;
The blockchain has allowed us to create a Token, the Wine Coin, the tool that allows us to put the final consumer at the center of our project. The consumer, actively participating in the Followine ecosystem, is the real protagonist: in fact, each scan allows the system to collect data useful for increasing its efficiency and effectiveness;
Again, a “guarantee agency” must be super partes, transparent and with information always visible and accessible to anyone who wants to see it. Above all, it is essential that there is no way to change that information and, to date, the only technology that guarantees the inalterability of data is the blockchain.

MISSION

Followine's mission is to create a global eco-system that connects wine with the world's stakeholders and consumers together, encouraging the realization of new international communication and business models and also implement a system where the consumer, simply by scanning QR codes for authentication, receives points that will be converted into Wine Coin.

Every passing day, the world is drowning under the increasing volume of waste, having adverse effects on human health, climate and environment. Systematic and effective waste management has appeared as a severe challenge affecting many developing countries like Nigeria or India. Increased rate of urbanization and population and rapid developments are responsible for the generation of the massive amount of waste. The growing waste generation rates, the issues of finding new disposal sites, depletion of landfill space, waste disposal and management methods are hampering adequate waste management. For efficient results, it is crucial to introduce a modern waste management system to notice a full cycle of waste management, from how they were collected to when and where they were thrown away.
