IP Sharing Exchange - IPSX
IP Sharing Exchange is a Blockchain based system fully automated, with full clearing of utility tokens associating the price and distribution based on offer and demand for IPs. In essence, renting out IP addresses on the blockchain. You can share your IP address from your phone, laptop, tablet or even datacentre (range of IP addresses).
As an end user you will be able to install an application on your device and share your device's IP in a couple of seconds on the IP Sharing Exchange platform, or rent an already existing IP from IPSX platform. As a data center you will be able to share a full range of unused IPs on the IPSX platform. The IPSX ecosystem will be structured on three major layers: blockchain layer, front layer and VPN connection layer. Each of these layers will be described in a very detailed level on the design documents.

IPSX will become a framework and a marketplace for new applications that require IPs at their backbone e.g. VPN providers, Data Mining software, web crawling bots, micro tasks, etc. For Data Mining, large volumes of IPs are required for the actors involved in the mining process to be able to perform tasks. By substantially lowering the price of IPs and solving the IPs accessibility and availability problems, IPSX is aiming to become a key building ecosystem for all the fields that require larger or smaller volumes of IPs and allowing complex applications from Data Mining and other fields to become more accessible to everyone.
Why are remote IP addresses useful?
- Improve privacy and security
- Access geo-blocked services / media
- Bypass national and corporate restrictions.
- VPN applications
- Data Mining
- Security layers
- Other micro tasks
Token Details
- IPSX is a utility token based on the Ethereum technology
- Using the ERC20 protocol
- Unit of exchange between actors on the ecosystem
- IPSX will also be used for commission payments to the platform
- Token sale hard cap 10,800 Ether
- Begins 28/02/2018
- 1 ETH = 70,588.23529 IPSX
- A total of 1,800,000,000 IPSX tokens will be generated. 50% of them will be reserved for token sale.

Thanks for information @cryptofunk
Hello! Here is the nearest meetup: https://steemit.com/steemcamp/@lloyddavis/steemcampuk-an-invitation
Thanks for the heads up, can't make that weekend but hopefully meet up soon!
Thanks for all your help bro , about the song How deep is your love
Always bringing good news!! well done many thanks my friend 👍
Pretty interesting idea acually. Never considered renting out an IP before.
I wonder would there be any danger to the person renting the IP address to some1 who is pursuing malicious objectives ona rented Address etc?
It's possible, but from what I read the details of the connecting IP address using/paying for your IP address are logged. It's similar to Bitcoin where all transactions are logged, you could be super private but you could also have all your transactions ever made linked :O
I believe i understand. And this way even if sm1 was using the IP for “evil” it could be so anonomous that the renter couldn’t be affected anyway...
Thank you for this great information. I would look more into it.
Totally new topic for me - some things sound quite kryptic to me, but still - very interesting, opens quite a new field of interest to me! thanks for sharing!
