Press Release: Vments non-crypto distributed ledger banking platform partners with Photon for POC Development

New York, September 21, 2018. VmentsTM, the designers of their patent-pending Enterprise Digital Banking Core Platform and Ecosystem, and Photon Interactive a leading provider of omnichannel digital experiences including full-service creative, application development and architecture design and implementation for many of the Fortune 100, announced their agreement for a strategic resource funded development partnership that they made earlier this summer. Steven Wasserman, CEO, Founder and Architect of VmentsTM, in close collaboration with Photon, have now completed the proof of concept (POC).

The POC demonstrates the core of the Vments TM virtual fiat money (VFM) and smart transaction design that works on top of a hybrid blockchain and off-chain cloud layer network of banks and non-bank financial services. Other aspects of the POC design involve the sophisticated network and security architecture initially leveraging Hyperledger and Fabric for the blockchain layer and AWS as the cloud layer along with applicable security access controls for an interface layer to the individual and business customers of their clients & partners.

Photon’s highly professional team evolved Vments’ detailed specification documents and diagrams as their understanding through standardized Tier 1 level documentation and methodology for this project and product. The value of the POC deliverables to VmentsTM is a step toward the development for the Minimal Viable Product (MVP), slated as the next phase that they are now seeking applicable investor participation and interested clients and partners.

According to Steve Wasserman, “VmentsTM ecosystem allows banks and financial services to visualize, realize, and participate in Banking Into The Future with each other, their customers, and other integrated parties to the ecosystem.”

Mukund Balasubramanian, Photon Co-founder and CTO, said that “Vments approach to the blockchain and digital money is a fully scalable, regulated, and non-crypto based solution that many of our Fortune 100 and 500 clients should be interested in”.

VmentsTM long term design vision enables it’s clients and partners to choose the blockchain and cloud layer of their choice to participate. The ecosystem enables VFM in any fiat currency which can be exchanged for VFM of any other fiat. VFM is not its own currency, nor is based on a cryptocurrency, as are all of the cryptocurrencies and “stablecoins”. It can only be used through Vments’ enterprise functional open APIs use cases that make up the ecosystem.

The first use cases slated for the MVP in 2019 cover peer to peer data and value transfers between consumers and merchants as well as person to person transactions using Vments “true mobile and online digital cash” called CommunityVcash. Visit www.vments.com/CommunityVcash for more.

“Working with innovative startups is part of Photon’s DNA. Investing our resources to help build and bring these new services to fruition is a natural extension of our work with the startup community,” explains Mukund Balasubramanian. “We are always on the hunt for new disruptive companies to bring to our customer base.”

As a result of this strategic partnership, VmentsTM is poised to become the Enterprise Digital Banking (EDB) core platform and ecosystem delivering “Banking Into The Future”.
