BitClave

BitClave uses blockchain to eliminate the ad service middleman. The company's objective is to create a direct connection between businesses and customers. BitClave is building a decentralized search engine that helps users search for items without losing control of their own personal information. Users also get compensated every time they click on search results for products and services from their favorite brands. The process makes third-party advertising networks unnecessary. BitClave raised $25 million during its November '17 crowdsale, where participants from 130+ countries came together. BitClave is headquartered in Mountain View, CA with its team members spread across the world.
