Companies to Display Their Blockchain Offerings at Premiere Mobile Event

Rivetz, a leader in decentralized cybersecurity, announced it will be joined by global internet solutions provider PeerStream, at their partner pavilion at 4YFN, the sister conference to Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. The companies will be demonstrating advanced mobile security for messaging and media streaming at Booth 116 in Hall 4YFN Montjuic Hall M8, from Feb. 25-28.

PeerStream has been building innovative consumer apps for 20 years, with its flagship video chat product, Paltalk. Now PeerStream is introducing Backchannel, a blockchain-enabled secure live video messaging app targeting prosumer, enterprise and government use cases. Released in private beta in December 2018, Backchannel uses blockchain technology to provide the foundation for decentralized security assuring only the users control their keys and communications. Backchannel is built on PeerStream Protocol (“PSP”), which adds an additional layer of security that anonymizes and protects the user’s identity along with their streamed data.
