GetGems

Tel Aviv, Israel

Overview

GetGems (formerly Gems) is a decentralised social messaging service that issues a native GEMZ token on Counterparty to allow users to profit from the platform’s growth. Its encrypted messaging service is available on Android and the company plans to launch a basic iOS app, a wallet and token system, and an advertising platform in 2015. The project is operated by Decentralized Mobile Applications Ltd and has been running an ongoing crowdsale since December 1. The crowdsale has raised $600,000 to date, and management says those funds will help accelerate product development. GetGems faces a very competitive mainstream instant messaging market, and the team emphasizes community support as a validation of viability. The company has positioned itself as a crypto 2.0 project that leverages blockchain technology for new social messaging use cases.
