“B Cryptos” is backed by QUOINE, who are the leading crypto exchange in Japan. They also have backing from “B Dash Ventures,” one of Japan’s leading VC funds. “B Cryptos” is planning to invest in many token sales and cryptocurrencies.
ICON state in their Medium post that this strategic partnership is:
“to further expand our support for blockchain projects and to build a worldwide hyperconnected blockchain ecosystem.”
As partners, ICON and the fund are planning to host conferences, hackathons and demo days, along with incubation programs for projects in the space.
Their post explains further details of this partnership:
“JH Kim, council member of ICON, will become a member of the Crypto Fund Investment Committee. Also, Hiroyuki Watanabe, CEO of B Dash Ventures, will become an advisor for ICON. ICON is also considering making investments in B Crypto’s Fund as a limited partner.”
“E4net,” IT-B2B service company
The second announcement from ICON today was regarding an MOU which has just been signed by themselves and E4net. The companies signed the MOU for the Blockchain-platform Business Alliance, and both will be providing users with services, such as improvements to the authentication system.

Further information regarding the memorandum of understanding can be found in their Medium post:
With this MOU, theloop will provide blockchain solutions for E4net’s various projects such as a unified membership platform and authentication service.
We anticipate that cooperation with E4net will lead to building a blockchain-platform and speed up the creation of various blockchain ecosystems.
