XCHNG secures investment from blockchain investment fund, #Hashed

Kochava Labs SEZC, a research, and development subsidiary of Kochava Inc. today announced a lead investment from global blockchain investments fund, Hashed in XCHNG, its open source blockchain framework for the digital advertising ecosystem.

Built upon a high-performance blockchain XCHNG is designed specifically for the digital advertising industry – capable of handling millions of transactions per second, as demanded by the current ecosystem.

XCHNG’s daily rolling chain capability makes it one of the fastest blockchain protocols in the space.

As one of the first crypto assets funds in Korea, Hashed focuses its investments on high-performance blockchain protocols that are applicable employable. With Hashed’s investment secured, XCHNG intends on including additional private presale partners and will continue its current efforts in establishing OnXCHNG partners and building out the protocol leading up to a sandbox launch, anticipated for Q3 2018.

“With XCHNG, we are focused on building a new set of standards for the digital advertising industry to combat some of the most prevalent issues faced by marketers and publishers alike. The Hashed team understands our long-term vision and what we are trying to achieve. As XCHNG continues to develop, it is important for us to have insight and guidance from key players at the intersection of blockchain and advertising. We’re thrilled to have Hashed onboard and look forward to working intimately with the team to catapult XCHNG into the premier blockchain solution for the ecosystem.”
