DECENT

Who are we?

Founded in 2015, DECENT builds upon a track record of early blockchain innovation with its own platform,

DCore, empowering users to rapidly create and migrate business-ready, scalable and decentralized

applications.

DECENT is dedicated to building a strong ecosystem of projects to encourage the successful realization of

the benefits blockchain has to offer for organizations and customers across multiple industries.

Vision & Mission

The story of DECENT began when founder Matej Michalko recognized the unfair conditions content

creators dealt with to have their work published and made available to the general public.

By eliminating business intermediaries and creating a consensus among members and buyers, up to 70%

of distribution costs could be avoided while ensuring a higher degree of trust. Blockchain’s traceable and

decentralized architecture enabled Matej and his team to build a safe, transparent and fair solution for

media which could impact other industries, and the DCore platform was born.

Matej was recognized by Forbes Slovakia with the

‘30 most talented people under 30’ award for

making DECENT and DCore the success it is

today. He is passionate about blockchain

technology, and will never cease in his efforts to

educate the community about the benefits it can

provide.

Matej founded the world’s first Bitcoin marketing

agency in the world, the first Cryptocurrency e-

Gaming consulting firm, and advised the Isle of

Man in establishing a center of excellence for

blockchain development.

Matej Michalko, CEO and Founder of DECENT, is a blockchain industry pioneer with more than eight years

of decentralized development and cryptocurrency leadership. He co-founded ALAX, and organized China's

first international Bitcoin Conference. As a blockchain advocate, he hosted, spoke and led many

conferences, such as BitcoinExpo 2013, BTC2B, BitcoinExpo 2014, BitcoinExpo 2015 and more.

Quick Quotes from the CEO

“Every transaction in blockchain is written in a block and cannot be changed or edited. This block data is

available for audit and tracking purposes as the entire blockchain is designed to be transparent. These

features bring huge value to any industry where businesses or customers need to track, in real-time, the

entire lifecycle of any product.”

“Even though the techniology has been around since 2009, blockchain is still considered a ‘novelty’ and

companies are just starting to explore its capabilities.”

“From small startup companies to large corporations, everyone is looking for blockchain solutions across all

industries. This means a huge number of job opportunities in the blockchain space are available right now and

the more accepted the technology becomes, the more jobs it will create.”

TESTIMONIALS

Aaron Pemberton Investor

"DECENT has assembled an exceptional, diverse team of knowledgeable and skilled

blockchain professionals covering all aspects of the industry. Their dedicated and hard-

working team members are willing and able to assist through all phases of

development. I am highly impressed with DECENT and the caliber of its team

members.”

"As a person in charge of venture capital, I believe that every founder should understand

the unity of knowledge and action in order to truly reflect their responsibility. It is

undeniable that the founder of DECENT has that proven ability. For this reason, DECENT

is able to develop a 'trust machine' deployed by the real world for global blockchain

users—one that can solve pain points and generate huge benefits."

“With all the noise and hype around blockchain, companies with bona fide products

that provide real value to customers are rare. DECENT is one of the few standouts, and

with a history dating to 2015, it offers one of the more advanced platforms on the

market. DECENT has also built a substantial community, which is an essential

prerequisite to success with any decentralized business model.”
