Apparently we are not keeping up with the cool kids here.

* Open in the name
* .IO TLD
* A scrolling website

It all checks out as a legitimate web3.0 biz

* Blockchain as a Transport (BaaT): BaaT leverages blockchain to create an architecture that can connect geographically 
dispersed Layer 2 islands over any available infrastructure, including the public Internet. As the resulting solution 
securely supports all kinds of traffic: Unicast, Multicast and Broadcast - BaaT will become the transport service of 
choice for all businesses.

* Blockchain-Defined Wide Area Networks (BD-WAN): BD-WAN integrates blockchain with Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) for a 
secure, scalable virtualization of WAN transport technologies. Among the unique features (not available with most SD-WAN 
architectures):

The ability to dynamically establish and tear down logical and physical circuits so customers pay only for what they 
consume.

* Inter-Domain MPLS Traffic Engineering via blockchain (near zero time delay).

Trusted per-usage billings that are verified and hard-coded over the blockchain.

Full visibility and control over all transport facilities either via Fiber to the Premises (FTTP) or via partnership 
with key telco operators and metro Ethernet providers worldwide.

Bringing public cloud and content services seamlessly to the customers' doorstep as part of the standard offering.
