About the guests

John Wantz is the co-founder of blockchain technology specifically for e-commerce. The blockchain protocol runs on Ethereum. The purpose of the technology is to change the way online retail is done on Amazon from a front-end perspective.



On today’s episode, we are going to learning about a new retail-focused blockchain protocol that aims to decentralise Retail on the Ethereum Blockchain.

The name of the protocol is $HOP or SHOP and a Co-Founder, John Wantz joins me to talk about how the protocol aims to decentralise retail and ecommerce.

The protocol will provide Shoppers and retail brands access to the SHOP decentralized data marketplace. Shoppers will be provided with a SHOP Token enabled wallet that will be used in on $HOP enabled ecommerce stores. At the point of sale, Shoppers will be able to pass on their shopping data to stores in exchange for incentives, rewards and rebates.

Retail brands, on the other hand, can use the $HOP decentralised data marketplace to promote their products to across multiple marketplaces and get a more consolidated view of each of their opted-in customers’ buying patterns from the decentralised data marketplace.

They are currently on public pre-sale ICO here:

Their pre-sale ICO ends April 29th, and then their Public ICO begins on May 14th.
