Aiming to be a Decentralized Finance ecosystem with the best user experience, RICE is the brainchild of Kn (Co-founder and CEO) and Hieu Ngo (Co-founder and CTO).
Kn has held many senior management positions at big corporations such as TOPICA, PTI, MB BANK. After successfully raising $500,000 from Shark Tank VN for Miin Asia with a micro-insurance product, he was offered to sell the company for $4,000,000 by one of the top 5 banks in Vietnam.
Hieu is the Co-founder and Chief Platform Officer of TCOM, the leading Technology and Software Service company in Vietnam. Hieu has many years of experience in building technology solutions for products like AI, social live-stream, and video conferences. Besides, he is directly involved in developing VietID, an application with over 20 million users.
Deriving from many bad experiences in crypto investment, some even challenging to use like Trust wallet or MetaMask, Kn gave up a salary of several thousand dollars to call and convince Hieu to build RICE, hoping that anyone could enter the market easily. The team shows seriousness and commitment to the project with a 5-year vision. All tokens of the founding team are locked for five years. In addition, angel investors are also selected, requiring a 2.5-year lock. As an investor, he always puts his faith first. That philosophy inspires all RICE teams.
