„Not many startups boast as their founder an entrepreneur whose previous company is a multi-million dollar success. And not many startups have as their stated mission changing the way all financial instruments are traded while reforming the global banking system.“

„Olsen founded Lykke in Zurich and received initial seed funding in 2015. In May 2016, Lykke closed a second seed round where the new shareholders included angel investors Marco Brockhaus and Carlo Koelzer, founding partner of 360T’s Group Executive Board and member of Deutsche Börse Group Management Committee.“

Contest & Collaboration Platform:

Lykke Streams

Lykke Streams is a new contest platform for innovation. The goal is to connect people who want something done with those who want to do it. It is for the early, creative, explorative phases of a new project, not for final delivery.

Contest originators can post contests and offer rewards for completing them in phases. Developers, designers, and other professionals can work alone or in collaboration to try to earn awards.

Users can browse Lykke Streams without registering for an account. To post a contest or a response, you will need to download the Lykke Wallet mobile app and register, then come back and log in. You must be at least 18 years old to participate. This document explains how the platform works.

It's also a very good explanation about Lykke Streams and what it will be:


Description

At Lykke, we’re building a global blockchain-based marketplace. We’re doing it in a new way: we don’t interview and hire; instead, we look for enthusiastic people around the world who want to join us in our mission.

There are commercial contest platforms out there, but we haven’t found one that is flexible enough for us. That is why we have started Lykke Streams, a crowdsourcing initiative to staff and complete all kinds of projects.

Lykke Streams will provide a forum for publishing project ideas and attracting talent from around the world. Project originators can post their ideas on the platform and set aside prize funds to be awarded upon completion. Developers, designers, and other professionals can contribute directly to projects of interest and work collaboratively to earn the prize.

Now Lykke Streams is available in beta at streams.lykke.com, and we are looking for a team to further develop and support it. The winners may be offered ongoing contracts or employment.

Great german article about Richard Olsen and Lykke:


Evolutionäre Revolution

Unter den vielen Start-ups sticht eines ganz besonders hervor. Lykke. Die Idee des Gründers ist so bestechend wie einleuchtend und zukunftsweisend. Ein globaler, bargeldloser Marktplatz, der dem Markt mit neuen Investmentprodukten Liquidität liefert.
 
Richard Olsen, der Gründer von Lykke, ist kein unbeschriebenes Blatt. Er hat sich vor Jahren mit dem erfolgreichen Währungsrechnungstool Oanda und der gleichnamigen Devisenplattform einen Namen gemacht. Olsen ist ein Vordenker, ein Innovator. Ein Mensch, der über Jahre hinweg Details aus dem Finanzmarkt beobachtet und erforscht hat. Sein Fazit: «Die Zusammenhänge sind ganz anders, als ich in der Theorie gelernt und in Büchern gelesen habe.»

Die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse und die jahrelangen, wissenschaftlichen Forschungen und Leistungen, die unter anderem international grosse Anerkennung erhielten, fliessen in sein Start-up Lykke ein. War er in früheren Projekten seiner Zeit voraus, ist ihm mit Lykke ein gutes Timing gelungen und es könnte goldrichtig sein, denn virtuelle Währungen und Blockchain haben wieder neuen Schub erhalten.

WISekey and Lykke to integrate Cybersecurity into Blockchain Applications

WISeKey International Holding Ltd (WIHN.SW) (“WISeKey”), a leading global cybersecurity company and Lykke Corp (“Lykke”), a Swiss-based digital exchange company announced today during the Davos Internet of Value Blockchain RoundTable a joint agreement to integrate and co-offer their flagship products: the Lykke Wallet and the WISeKey suite of software, APIs, and servers, to secure access to data and devices in the world.

Lykke will integrate the WISeKey identity and security stack into its digital wallets and software, while WISeKey, in addition to its WISWatch and other security devices, will offer a “WISeKey wallet by Lykke” to its customers.

“The combination of these two technologies is very powerful,” says Richard Olsen, CEO of Lykke. “It will give our customers, both individuals and our large enterprise customers, private key protection and management as a built-in part of the Lykke platform. This is very much part of the Lykke vision, and WISeKey is a perfect partner for us.”

Carlos Moreira, CEO of WISeKey, added, “We’re very happy to integrate the Lykke trading ecosystem into our suite of products. This is going to make it easier to buy what you want, use and pay for services as you need them, and transfer money securely without passwords and other insecure forms of identification.”
