Bringing Real-World Brand to Binance

“Salesforce has its own blockchain initiative built on Hyperledger…but their technology is a year behind us. The solution is in the past because they are not blockchain experts like us,” noted the startup’s co-founder.
The First Decentralised CRM Solution
Purporting to be “the first decentralized CRM solution,” Cere Network anticipates accelerating the tailwind of businesses becoming more attracted in the emerging blockchain technology.

He further said:
