The threat intelligence market is expected to grow to 9 Billion by 2022, thanks to an increasing need for cybersecurity with about 80 to 90 million cyberattacks each year, up to 70% of which go undetected. We're releasing Nectar, a utility token that powers PolySwarm, a decentralized security marketplace where threats are detected in real-time by thousands of micro-engines, honed by security experts competing to protect you. Nectar will be used, exclusively, in the PolySwarm ecosystem by enterprises and existing anti-virus subscribers to distribute anti-virus subscription fees only to those security experts who are timely and accurate with being able to identify malicious files.

The first version of Feniks.Finance will be able to handle payments and storage of users' funds. Namely, the banking transactions labeled in the SWIFT system with MT103 as payment sent and MT202 as a receipt and crediting of the payment to the account. The next step in the development of the system will be a 700 group of SWIFT operations, namely documentary transactions better known as guarantees and letters of credit. The introduction of the 500 group, that is, the operation with securities, suggests that an exchange will appear in our network.
