Information technology industry: cross-border payments and blockchain become hot topics

Tuesday's "Seven Days Talk" brings a summary of the primary market. With the active capital market, the dynamics of the primary market are also attracting more and more attention. Therefore, we specially launch a summary report on the investment and financing dynamics of the TMT industry in the primary market every week, and will make targeted comments on some of the hot investments and hot industries.

This week's focus industries are cross-border payments and blockchain

Recently, I saw an investment information in the primary market. Xiaobeike (Kuaibei Network) received 5 million angel round investment. Xiaobeike is a virtual currency company. Shell coin is actually a side chain of Bitcoin. The Bitcoin system uses the proof of work mechanism (POW) to distribute assets. Cross-border payment and blockchain are also hot topics in the current capital market. We have also summarized several current cross-border payment methods and compared and analyzed their respective advantages and disadvantages.

Other primary market investments this week focused on vertical e-commerce, Internet finance and other fields.

We have seen that a large number of startups that have received financing are operating in the direction of financial services for segmented vertical industries. Various e-commerce platforms, information-based B2C and B2B solution applications are still hot spots for primary market investment, and the fields they are in are becoming more and more segmented. New media investment has also become a trend with the development of the Internet social economy. In the past, various self-media were valued at over 100 million yuan (such as Huxiu and Feibo Gongchuang's "Cold Jokes Selection"), and recently, Internet celebrities have frequently received investment (such as Papi Jiang).
