Strategic Cooperation

Newton and DCC recently announced their upgraded strategic cooperation. This trans-boundary cooperation will serve the commercial ecology comprising millions of users. The two parties will jointly promote the application of blockchain technology in consumer finance and supply chain finance industry.

DCC aims at breaking the monopoly of traditional financial institutions through fair financial service capabilities and then return the benefits of financial services to the transaction participants. This way, each participant can share the rewards of ecological growth.

According to the roadmap, NewMall will be online by the end of 2018. By then, as Newton already has very strong business partners and community supporters, there will be millions of users and merchants settled in Newmall. The users and merchants will provide competitive products, bring a wealth of data and promote economic growth. Through trans-boundary eco-cooperation, the Newton community and the DCC community will merge with each other. The DCC will link the personal consumption data and credit information authorized by NewMall users. Based on the transaction data of the blockchain seller, DCC’s distributed financial ecosystem will implement credit enhancement measures. Our users will be provided with lower-interest-rate and higher-amount credit loan services from which both Newton and DCC communities will benefit. The integration of capital flow and commodity flow in the blockchain will inevitably bring business into a new era belonging to the people and build a new commercial ecology with abundant data flow, reliable information, and open and transparent rules.
