Generally speaking, the society is based on capitalism, democracy, trust,
and fiction. These systems and ideas are based on the view which humans are born inherently good. Unfortunately, humans are not so rational and altruistic. 　　　　　　　　ブロックチェーンの衝撃（2016), Sapiens: brief history of humankind (2015)　　　　 8IZ#MPDLDIBJOʁ l#MPDLDIBJO$IBOHFTUIF8PSMEz 5IF1SPCMFN 　　Make a society which is based on trustless system and the view which humans are born inherently evil by using blockchain.

&YQFDUBUJPO “The technology most likely to change the next decade
of business is not the social web, big data, the cloud, robotics, or even artificial intelligence. Itʼs the blockchain, the technology behind digital currencies like Bitcoin.” )BSWBSE#VTJOFTT3FWJFX%PO5BQTDPU “The progress of mankind is marked by the rise of new technologies and thehuman ingenuity they unlock. In distributed ledger technology, we may be witnessing one of those potential explosions of creative potential that catalyse exceptional levels of innovation. The technology could prove to have the capacity to deliver a new kind of trust to a wide range of services. As we have seen open data revolutionise the citizenʼs relationship with the state, so may the visibility in these technologies reform our financial markets, supply chains, consumer and business-to-business services, and publicly-held registers.” "SFQPSUCZUIF6,(PWFSONFOU$IJFG4DJFOUJGJD"EWJTFS 6

ϒϩοΫνΣʔϯͱ͸ʁ +BQBOFTF ブロックチェーンの特徴 ①改ざんが極めて困難である。 ②実質ゼロ・ダウンタイムなシステム。 ③安価に構築可能。 ①に関してはなぜ改ざんが困難かというと2つの特徴がある。１つ目は「分散的」な管理システムだから。このようなシステムを一般的にP2Pという。（Peer
to Peer) 従来、お金の取引は銀行などの第３者機関が仲介することによって信頼性を担保してきたが、ブロックチェーンでは全ての履歴を皆で共有することによって信頼性を担保している。これによって第３者機関が必要なくなると一般的に言われている。２つ目は「各取引履歴は順番にブロックに収納されていて各ブロックが直前のブロックとつながっているために改ざんが困難」図を参照のこと。例えば、データが保管されている１つのブロックのデータを改ざんすると、チェーンで繋がっている前、後ろのデータとの整合性が取れなくなるので改ざんをしたら瞬時に見つかる。革新性いつだって経済活動の基盤は取引だった。歴史的にいままで取引相手の信頼性の担保の為に非常に多くのコストがかかってきた。信頼性担保の仕組みの例・格付け、会計監査　・公証人　・登記　・中央銀行しかし、ブロックチェーンを利用することで参加者同士が相互に協力・監視するシステムが成り立つので社会システムを維持する為に多大なコストを払って構築してきた中央集権的な第3者機関が不要になる。 7

Founder: Zoe Adamovics Employee: ??? 33 : Investment Seed : $2.13M 1 rounds from 2 investors General : Neufund will use the funding to build an open platform for investors to acquire startup equity in the form of tradable crypto tokens. The blockchain-based platform that Neufund is building creates a new type of ownership that is neither money nor stock, but crypto tokens which represent equity and at the same time are as liquid as a currency. Such tokens have an intrinsic value to the network, but at the same time they also represent value of the business operating in the real – off-chain – world. The blockchain is based on Ethereum. Using the legal and technical infrastructure, startups and established companies alike can legally issue a new type of asset we call tokenized equity. We achieve this by formally linking traditional contracts with Ethereum smart contracts through mutual reference and code correspondence. Feature : •  community-owned fundraising platform. •  Ethereum Smart contract. Impact: Investment without 3rd party Monetize: ??? 52
