Case Study — Tracey
A partnership between The World Wide Fund for Nature (WWF) Philippines, UnionBank and Streamr's consultancy partner TX is working on Tracey, an app for fishermen that will use blockchain for documenting and verifying catch and traceability data. The provided data can then be used by financial institutions such as UnionBank to conduct credit assessments to be able to provide micro loans to the fishermen.
The DATA Token
The DATA token is an ERC-20 token used across the Streamr platform. It is used for payments on the Marketplace, and it will power the incentive mechanism on the Streamr Network from the Tatum milestone. There is a total supply of around 1 billion DATA, and it is trading on many major exchanges.
