VeChain is a blockchain technology company that may disrupt industries like liquor, agriculture and luxury goods. VeChain was established in Singapore in 2017, as a non-profit entity. This foundation is committed to VeChain’s construction and governance, transparency, development. Their mission includes promoting the safety and harmonious development of open source ecological communities. You may wonder how this caught the eye of Roger Ver, one of the most well-known crypto-investors who’s been around since the beginning.
As a team, VeChain strives to develop a trust-free and distributed business ecosystem in order to enable transparent information flow and efficient collaboration. This is where the blockchain comes in, and where the company provides value. Over the past two years, the company has gained ample experience through its technical upgrades, client’s expansion and strategic readjustments, as outline in their roadmap, below:

So what does Roger Ver have to say about VeChain? For starters, as a voluntaryist, he’s most interested in blockchains because they enable permissionless P2P digital cash systems that are detached from the centralized, fiat systems that are commonplace today. Regarding VeChain, he sees it as a unique use case for blockchains, to stop the dispersal of counterfeit goods. The result? Peer-to-peer permissionless markets become more trustworthy.
I’m most interested in blockchains enabling a permissionless peer to peer digital cash system for the world, but @vechainofficial has some interesting ways of using them to stop counterfeit goods, making P2P permissionless markets more trustworthy. https://t.co/7Km9Hv0xRj

Ver’s on a mission to keep his customers happy. His experience includes the position of CEO at MemoryDealers.com, a leading supplier of used Cisco memory and networking equipment. Perhaps this experience gives him the foresight to pick a winner in VeChain.
You can read about his thoughts on Bitcoin at his website RogerVer.com, where he reveals that he discovered Bitcoin in 2011 and considers the blockchain to be the most important invention in the world history after internet started. Roger became the prolific Bitcoin-related startup investor as his company, Memory Dealers was among the first mainstream business that accepted Bitcoin as payment.
