Join us for a peek at HypreRing's NFC ring with CEO Joy Zhang and learn how HyperRing - with its unique security features - is in a class by itself.

About HyperRing:

HyperRing shimmers at the bleeding edge of wearable technology innovation. Their mission is to revolutionize the way individuals interact with and secure their digital assets, placing control firmly back in the hands of the consumer.

In the realm of payment technology, HyperRing is focused on elevating convenience while ensuring unparalleled security, enabling seamless transactions across various platforms, be it online shopping, in-person purchases, or in-app transactions.

Healthcare is another key vertical where HyperRing is making waves with its technology. By creating a decentralized system for medical records, the project is empowering individuals to take control of their healthcare data.

In the luxury sector, HyperRing is offering solutions that redefine brand engagement and customer loyalty through secure and seamless consumer experiences. By providing a platform that fosters lifelong customer relationships.

Joy explains a bit more about HyperRing’s unique approach to NFC rings:

“While we are definitely making innovations on the hardware side, the secret sauce is not the hardware but the software wrapping we have around the NFC ring. Because remember, NFC's are fully readable and programmable.

Our technology is powered by the Earth64 data structure, which is ultra scalable (each ring contains 4.3 billion globally unique NFTs) and designed to enable authentications/proof of ownership to be conducted without a third party. This proprietary software is our advantage/differentiator that no other NFC ring has.

And then just to make a point clear - because our mission is to ensure privacy and no third-party interference, it was our conscious decision to not embed any sensors and batteries inside the ring. So for any users concerned about someone spying on them, this should give them more assurance.”
