“An important aspect of our vision here at Everex is making a difference for the better in people’s everyday lives,” said Everex CEO, Alexi Lane. “That’s why we’ve joined the Blockchain for Social Impact Coalition (BSIC): to join a growing coalition of blockchain products and solutions designed to address social and environmental challenges.”

“Diverse designers, developers, entrepreneurs and thought leaders all in one room designing transformational technologies, and addressing complex challenges,” added Lane. “This is exactly the sort of high stakes and high talent environment Everex thrives in.”
Ethereum diversity
BSIC exclusively promotes Ethereum blockchain solutions and focuses on financial inclusion, supply chains, identity and vulnerable peoples, energy, and the environment. An initiative of Brooklyn-based venture production studio ConsenSys, it includes ABN-AMRO, Alice, Alpha Source, Disberse, EDU, Future of Property Rights, Slave Free Trade, MIT Solve and more than 16 others.
“The groups taking part in BSIC are a diverse set that actually complement each other quite nicely,” said Lane. “We will undoubtedly see a full spectrum transformation of the way things are, and in large part thanks to the companies taking part in this initiative.”
ABN-AMRO is a large Dutch bank. I love to see Everex named with them in one line. I recently stepped in and hope many will follow. It is still possible to buy tokens.
@Jon – “Does this mean that Chicago will no longer be a hub for the actual trading or storing of electronic equipment? That the offices will all move to New York City, including the servers?”
I don’t think that will take place anytime soon since you have a massive unit of Chicago based traders and brokers that populate the future’s market and need the data infrastructure near by. There are operational effeciencies of remaining in Chicago as the actual commodity markets they support are often in the mid-west.
