2017 was a busy year for New York entrepreneur Dean Anastos. This is mainly due to the fact that he and his team at Blockchain Developers<\/a> were in high demand. Specializing in token creation and smart contracts for clients on the Ethereum network, Blockchain Developers sought to work with a specific caliber of enterprise.<\/p>\n

For Anastos, BlockVentures S.A. de C.V.<\/a> is one such entity that has been working with Blockchain Developers. Based in Guadalajara, Mexico, they specialize in building businesses within the blockchain technology space. The founder and CEO of BlockVentures, Al Rosario, first reached out to Anastos for advisory support in an ongoing project of purchasing various businesses throughout the world to eventually transition their data infrastructure to a blockchain-based model. <\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Rosario wanted us to help with the technology regarding the smart contract development needed for his vision. We\u2019ve been hard at work on this over the past several months now and are seeing the projects coming to fruition.\u201d <\/p>\n

Anastos touted the fact that Rosario has already been successful in getting the company\u2019s token on the ForkDelta exchange while working with Mexican officials on a key set of projects. \u201cHe\u2019s working in conjunction with a several multinational companies in Mexico where the company will provide blockchain solutions for their logistics and security needs.\u201d <\/p>\n

The initial project, according to Anastos, involves the management of fuel from tankers that deliver gas. The goal is to capture data from telemetric valves that accurately tracks volume flow. This data would then be time stamped and recorded on the blockchain.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is just one of many cool and exciting projects Rosario is engaged in,\u201d said Anastos. \u201cHe has a knack for successfully executing business ideas. It\u2019s exciting to be working with him.\u201d <\/p>\n

Built from the same block<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Rosario and Anastos worked well together from the start due in part to commonalities Anastos pointed out, \u201cWe\u2019re both from New York. He\u2019s latin and I\u2019m latin. So when we met we really hit it off.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rosario sees great opportunities for blockchain technology in Mexico. \u201cWhat happened, as you may know, is that they are one of the first countries getting a handle on regulations in this industry. In fact, major regulations have just been passed through Mexico\u2019s Senate and Congress and now awaiting the signature of the President. We are positioned to be at the forefront of compliant blockchain companies in Mexico.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rosario sees current opportunities in Mexico as business-friendly, especially for technology. \u201cWe just signed a deal with a group out of Japan for a cryptocurrency exchange there as well as one in Latin America.\u201d <\/p>\n

Rosario\u2019s interest in these types of business projects has come from a desire to work with tangible enterprises where his team could carve a niche in developing blockchain pilots and programs from the ground up.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s exciting to bring the blockchain in and determine how it can best serve these markets.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rosario also pointed out the need for flexibility, as in life, when working in the emerging blockchain technology space.<\/p>\n

Building Blockchains for Established Businesses<\/strong><\/h3>\n

On the other side of the business equation is Anastos\u2019s belief that the key difference between Rosario\u2019s projects and many others is that his are backed by businesses that are already established. \u201cHis work is not speculative in the sense of trying to develop a technology that has a lot of ifs, ands, or buts,\u201d said Anastos, speaking of Rosario. \u201cHe is simply taking businesses that have already proven themselves and placed them onto the blockchain.\u201d <\/p>\n

One global trend that Anastos continues to watch closely for BlockVentures and his other clients is the ever-expanding regulatory environment around blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies. \u201cThere is definitely going to be a lot more regulation. From what I\u2019m hearing from insiders, the SEC is watching ICOs closely and taking notes. Eventually I believe we\u2019ll see a lot more crackdowns moving forward and more regulation.\u201d<\/p>\n

In the end, Rosario believes that Blockchain Developers offers an unmatched value proposition: the opportunity to work with a nice group of very talented technology people who are available and congenial. <\/p>\n
