View ChartTE-FOOD is a blockchain-based farm-to-table food traceability solution designed to bring transparency to the food industry. It positions itself as an end-to-end platform that tracks livestock and fresh farm products throughout the entire supply chain, providing tools for consumers, supply chain companies, and authorities to gain deeper insight into food usage and quality. The project aims to improve food safety, support fair trade, build trust between supply chain participants, and combat corruption within the ecosystem, with a particular focus on emerging markets.
The platform provides a public-permissioned blockchain called FoodChain, which stores traceability data in a decentralized yet permissioned manner with enterprise-grade data governance and security features. TONE is a pre-mined, non-inflationary ERC-20 licence token on the Ethereum blockchain. It has a maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 TONE, which is also the total supply. The token represents a tokenized software licence that individuals and organizations must hold to use TE-FOOD's ecosystem and pay for tools and daily transactions.
TE-FOOD launched its platform in 2016, with a start date of 2018-03-10 recorded per Yahoo Finance data provided by CoinMarketCap. The project has served over 6,000 businesses worldwide, processed 400,000 business operations daily, and tracked food products available to more than 150 million consumers. However, the project has faced significant challenges, including a Coinbase delisting, a trading halt on exchanges listed on CoinGecko, and an untracked status on BitDegree due to inactivity or insufficient data.
The TE-FOOD project was founded by a team with experience in management, IT, marketing, and sales. The key figures associated with the project include Dr. Trung Dao Ha, who serves as CEO and is also referenced as Trung Dao Ha. Erik Arokszallasi is also listed as CEO and is sometimes spelled Eric Arokzallasi in some sources. Additional core team members include Marton Ven as CMO, Gergely Koves as Project manager, and Katalin Vereczkey as a food industry expert.
The founders realized the need for a blockchain-based food traceability solution, and both Trung Dao Ha and Eric Arokzallasi brought experience across management, IT, marketing, and sales to the project. The team's combination of technical and food industry expertise reflects the dual nature of the TE-FOOD platform, which bridges supply chain logistics with blockchain technology.
TE-FOOD operates as an end-to-end solution with multiple components designed for the complete supply chain. The white paper solution overview includes serialization, data capture, blockchain, and data processing. These components work together to identify tracked items and batches, capture relevant data, store it on the blockchain, process the information, and present it to consumers in a meaningful way.
At the core of the system is the FoodChain, TE-FOOD's public permissioned blockchain. This blockchain enables both supply chain participants and the consumer community to maintain masternodes, thereby decentralizing traceability information. The blockchain is designed to be a secure and scalable solution for storing all traceability data in a decentralized, permissioned manner, with enterprise-grade data governance and security features.
TE-FOOD offers physical identification tools, mobile and web-based solutions, and other components in a cheap and efficient manner. The platform also provides its blockchain technology and its BlockSeal document verification solution. TE-FOOD's technology can be integrated with industrial labels, allowing for seamless adoption within existing supply chain processes. The system tracks thousands of pigs, chickens, eggs, and cattle daily, serving customers ranging from smallholder farms to global corporations.
TE-FOOD distinguishes itself through its comprehensive end-to-end approach to food traceability. Rather than focusing on a single aspect of the supply chain, the platform covers the entire journey from farm to table, offering many components for the complete supply chain to identify tracked items and batches, capture data, store it on blockchain, process it, and present it to consumers. This holistic approach aims to improve food safety, support fair trade, and build trust between players in the food supply chain.
The platform's public-permissioned blockchain model is another differentiating factor. By enabling both supply chain participants and the consumer community to maintain masternodes, TE-FOOD seeks to decentralize traceability information while maintaining the data governance and security features required for enterprise use. This balance between decentralization and permissioned access is designed to meet the needs of both businesses and consumers.
TE-FOOD also provides practical value to its users. Customers can differentiate products from the competition, improve operational efficiency through supply chain analysis and optimization, establish direct communication with consumers, position premium products with proofs of quality and sustainability claims, become compliant with import regulations of target countries, and perform quicker and more targeted product recalls. The platform's focus on emerging markets and its ability to serve over 150 million consumers demonstrate its real-world impact and value proposition.
TONE serves as a tokenized software licence within the TE-FOOD ecosystem. All individuals and organizations need to possess a certain number of TONE licence tokens to use TE-FOOD's ecosystem. The platform charges for tools and daily transactions using TONE, making it the primary medium of exchange for accessing TE-FOOD's suite of traceability solutions.
The token enables users to perform their activities within the ecosystem, including identifying tracked items and batches, capturing data, storing it on the blockchain, processing the data, and presenting it to consumers. TONE is integral to the operation of the FoodChain, as it facilitates the transactions and operations that keep the traceability system running.
Beyond its utility within the platform, TONE is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, which means it can be transferred, stored, and traded like other Ethereum-based tokens. The token underwent a swap from TFD to TONE, which was supported by KuCoin. However, it is important to note that TONE tokens have stopped trading on all exchanges listed on CoinGecko, and the token has been delisted from Coinbase due to non-compliance with listing standards.
The TE-FOOD ecosystem has demonstrated significant real-world adoption. The platform serves over 6,000 businesses worldwide, processes 400,000 business operations each day, and tracks food products available to more than 150 million consumers around the world. Thousands of pigs, chickens, eggs, and cattle are tracked daily, with customers ranging from smallholder farms to global corporations. A notable application is TE-FOOD's blockchain-based HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City) Governmental project.
The ecosystem includes the FoodChain blockchain, BlockSeal document verification solution, and various physical and digital tools for supply chain management. TE-FOOD's technology can be integrated with industrial labels, and the platform offers mobile and web-based solutions. The project has also established a community presence through X (Twitter), Telegram, and Reddit.
However, the ecosystem has faced notable setbacks. Coinbase announced the delisting of five tokens, including TONE, due to non-compliance with listing standards. TONE tokens have stopped trading on all exchanges listed on CoinGecko, and the cryptocurrency is marked as 'Untracked' on BitDegree because of inactivity or insufficient amount of data. Bitget has issued a warning that the price of this coin has not been updated or has stopped updating, and the value of TONE is not widely recognized by the market.
TONE is a pre-mined, non-inflationary ERC-20 token, which means it is not mined through traditional proof-of-work or proof-of-stake mechanisms. The maximum supply of 1,000,000,000 TONE was created at the outset, and no additional tokens can be generated. As a result, there is no mining process for TONE in the conventional sense.
Instead of mining, TONE functions as a licence token that users must acquire to access TE-FOOD's ecosystem. The token can be obtained through trading on supported exchanges or through other acquisition methods. The FoodChain blockchain, which underpins the TE-FOOD platform, allows supply chain participants and the consumer community to maintain masternodes to decentralize traceability information. However, maintaining a masternode is different from mining, as it involves supporting the network's operation rather than generating new tokens.
Given the current status of TONE, including the trading halt on exchanges listed on CoinGecko and the delisting from Coinbase, acquiring TONE may be challenging. Investors should be aware of these limitations and the associated risks before attempting to obtain or use TONE tokens.
Keeping TONE safe requires a combination of secure storage practices and awareness of the token's current market status. Since TONE is an ERC-20 token on the Ethereum blockchain, it can be stored in any wallet that supports ERC-20 tokens. This includes hardware wallets, which provide an extra layer of security by keeping private keys offline, as well as software wallets and web-based wallets. Users should always ensure they control their private keys and never share them with anyone.
Given the risks associated with TONE, including the Coinbase delisting, the trading halt on exchanges listed on CoinGecko, the untracked status on BitDegree, and the Bitget warning that the price has not been updated or has stopped updating, investors must closely monitor the market performance of TONE and be aware of associated risks. The current price of TONE has retreated by -100.00% from its all-time high, and the coin is currently considered high-risk. The world of cryptocurrencies is full of uncertainties, so thorough research and preparation are essential.
Before storing or transacting with TONE, users should verify the current status of the token on multiple data providers, including CoinMarketCap, CoinGecko, Yahoo Finance, Kraken, Binance, Bybit, Bitget, BitDegree, Delta.app, CryptoRank, and Coinbase. It is also advisable to use reputable wallets and to keep software up to date to protect against potential security vulnerabilities. Given the token's current market recognition challenges, investors should exercise caution and consider the high-risk classification before making any decisions regarding TONE.
