In a world where your every move is documented. Every call, text, video & voicemail you send is saved on a remote server somewhere you’ve likely never been to. Introducing a project that will counter these forces in a dynamic way.

But who is @dorianjohannink ? Who is this Chad with the baby face features & boyish charm? The man with the unicorn 🦄 glimmer in his eye?
Dorian Johannink graduated from The University of Auckland with a degree in the field and study of International Business/Management.

5.1
Outside of the life of pro tennis & snowboarding, Dorian went on to become the Co-Founder & Business Director of @sylo in 2015 alongside his friend and Co-Founder, @bjordannz who's head of the product department.

Dorian sits along side 5 other reputable board of directors:
@aaronmcdnz
@bjordannz
@robinjohannink
Daniel Gillespie
@PackardBrendon
+ a staff of over 30 employees

5.3
This team has pushed forward such innovative products under the @sylo umbrella such as the Sylo Smart Wallet.
The Sylo Smart Wallet is a non custodial crypto wallet that provides end to end encryption between users so they can securely send & receive funds in a social manner

5.3.1
[in the chat feed] via their mobile device, as well as make secure audio/video calls, buy/earn/store crypto, and more.

5.4
Sylo's decentralized protocol accelerates & standardizes connectivity between P2P for messaging & transfer of funds. Decentralized communication with no single point of control is what @sylo stands for. Combined with military-grade encryption, your communications are secure!

5.5
The network incentives users to become Sylo Node operators and improve the network by aiding communications inboxing and delivery.

5.6
Through the Sylo Smart Wallet, the following features are available:
🟠Digital storing asset wallet
🟠Decentralized private messenger
🟠Allowing users to request/receive payments in crypto
🟠Private calling/messaging/video calling
🟠Centrapay✨
Available on android & iOS

5.7
Centrapay is a prime benefited feature of $Sylo ’s partnership with @centralityai , they have developed an intelligent infrastructure such as API’s that allow merchants systems to connect with consumer apps (like the Sylo Smart Wallet) seamlessly and take payments.

5.8
The Sylo Smart Wallet utilizes this technology for payments to make transactions efficient for merchants while simultaneously converting the user's crypto currencies into the accepted fiat.

5.9
This was demonstrated in 2020 through the partnership of Centrapay &@CocaColaAmatil to allow users to buy products from vending machines with their Bitcoin by paying with the Sylo Smart Wallet!

6.0
Currently the @sylo Smart Wallet supports over 100+ crypto currencies such as #Bitcoin , @tezos , @ethereum (all ERC-20 tokens) & @CENNZnet .

6.1
By combating centralized data-centric models & going fully decentralized instead, users of the Sylo Smart Wallet can choose what info they would like to share with the Sylo app. Unlike nearly all other apps that monitor your data by default (see their terms & conditions!).

6.2
Applications such as @WhatsApp , @instagram & @facebookapp Messenger are still reliant on centralized servers that are operated by untrusted sources, with shady ethics around their users’ privacy.

6.2.1
Whereas in decentralized apps like the Sylo Smart Wallet, by using federated networks, the sender & the recipient of a message do not need accounts on the same server. The servers exchange messages with each other through open decentralized protocols.

6.3
The Sylo team also has one of the most insane roadmaps for 2021. They have executed every checkpoint efficiently, with the following remaining:

6.3.1
🟠NFT support added to the Sylo Smart Wallet. Soon you'll be able to add, receive, store & send NFT's in the Sylo Smart Wallet through the @opensea market.
🟠Burn Mechanic will launch to use proceeds from running other blockchain's nodes to buy & burn the $SYLO Tokens.

6.3.2
🟠In wallet Sylo staking for the SYLO token to earn a yield from within the Sylo Smart Wallet.
🟠Launch decentralized NFT social microblogging platform on the Sylo Network (Instagram killer).

6.3.3
🟠Sylo Nodes for public use. Get paid for running Sylo Nodes and contributing services to the Sylo Network.
🟠NFT permissions private groups in the Sylo Smart Wallet, where users can participate & vote in private groups by owning certain NFTs.

6.4-6.5
🟠Begin the open source of the Sylo Node code base & the Sylo wallet library to encourage community led blockchain & NFT support.

7.0
Altogether, these symbolize why any user that holds the SYLO token or uses the app are true Sylo marines willing to fight for your privacy & right to govern your own content/intellectual properties.

7.1
Sylo will allow you to create your own digital asset for Ecommerce & in-person purchases & sales. This is true innovation to accelerate the movement of a free decentralized open market.
The only question you should be asking yourself, corporal, is "Where do I sign up?!"
