Entrepreneurship

Ireedui Gantogtokh (Mongolian: Гантогтохын Ирээдүй, romanized: Gantogtokhiin Ireedui is the CEO and founder of Meborny LLC, a digital marketing firm that specializes in brand management, media outreach programs, media strategy development, social verification, and other marketing services.[13] MEBORNY LLC is a digital marketing firm. The company is recognized for its digital information organization and development services and products, especially in the education sector. Meborny LLC was founded in 2014 as the first online learning platform, which ultimately became the pre-eminent online academy in Mongolia.

It is a full-service branding agency that emphasizes on digital marketing, brand management, creating media outreach programs, developing media strategy, social verification, and other marketing services.[14][15][16][17][18]

IZC - IZ Coin amassed over $7,296,642 (₮20'430'000'000 Mongolian Tugriks) from more than 16000+ people with their project whitepaper in November 2021.[19]

IZC - IZ COIN IZC is a BEP-20 token based on the Binance Smart Chain (BSC) blockchain platform. However, after a careful and thorough risk consideration of the market at the time, he refunded the whole amount immediately back to its owners, yet IZC - IZ Coin was issued free of charge to those who ordered IZC - IZ Coin. We are pleased to announce that IZC - IZ Coin is currently under internal development. Note: At that time, in November 2021, the value of the Mongolian token, which was raised by collecting money from the public, fell 5-30 times from its initial market rate.[20]

Meborny LLC has started to transition to a Web 3.0 company since early 2022. Inspired by the previous project "IZC - IZ Coin", "The Mefoxy Club" project was created to introduce Mongolian people to uniquely identifiable assets, hence Mefoxy NFT Collectibles. The project started in February 2022. The Mefoxy Club is a one-of-a-kind 10'000 fox cartoon NFT, built on the ERC721 standard, based on the Ethereum blockchain. Currently, The Mefoxy Club can be traded on the world's 6 largest NFT Marketplaces: Opensea, Coinbase NFT, Rarible, Looksrare, X2Y2 and NFTrade.[21][22][23]

Crypto investigation

Ireedui Gantogtokh, an IT specialist and social activist, has made headlines in Mongolia with his investigation into cryptocurrency scams. In late 2021, it was revealed that Mongolian crypto tokens had scammed the public out of about $200 million through local crypto exchanges. These tokens were not following their whitepaper and tokenomics, with some even supplying additional tokens not mentioned in their initial offerings, leading to hidden profits for those involved in the scams.[24]

Ireedui Gantogtokh was quick to take action and expose the scams, and his efforts did not go unnoticed. His investigation gained the attention of Mongolian law enforcement and police, leading to the arrest of some of the crypto scammers in February 2021.[25][26]

It is worth noting that Ireedui Gantogtokh himself founded a crypto project called IZC - IZ Coin, which amassed over $7,296,642 (₮20'430'000'000 Mongolian Tugriks) from more than 16,000 people with their project whitepaper in November 2021. However, despite the success of his own project, Ireedui Gantogtokh put it on pause, as he believes that many Mongolian people are not yet ready for the crypto industry. He wants to ensure that people are protected from potential scams and risks associated with cryptocurrency, and will only continue his project when he feels that the public is more informed and ready to participate safely.[27]

Overall, Ireedui Gantogtokh's investigation into crypto scams and his commitment to educating and protecting the public from risks associated with cryptocurrency have solidified his status as a respected social influencer in Mongolia. His work has made a positive impact on the country's efforts to combat corruption and fraudulent practices in the crypto industry.

Social Activism

Ireedui Gantogtokh is a Mongolian social activist who has played a pivotal role in exposing corruption and unethical practices by government officials. Through his tireless investigations, Gantogtokh has revealed the misuse of public funds by high-ranking government officials, including the Prime Minister of Mongolia, Oyun-Erdene Luvsannamsrai,[28] and Sumiyabazar Dolsuren, the Mayor of Ulaanbaatar City.[29]

Gantogtokh's investigations have also uncovered evidence of theft of public resources by the Mongolian government. In particular, he has revealed that the government has stolen almost 15 billion dollars in coal revenue over the past decade.[30][31]

Gantogtokh's activism gained widespread support, culminating in a massive protest in Sukhbaatar Square in December 2022, with almost 20,000 people gathering to demand accountability from the government. During the protest, Gantogtokh went on a hunger strike to draw attention to the issue. Despite an offer from Mongolian Deputy Minister of Justice, Nyambaatar Khishgee, to end his hunger strike, Gantogtokh declined, believing that the government needed to take stronger action to address corruption and ensure justice for the Mongolian people.[32][33]

Gantogtokh's hunger strike and activism received significant media attention, and the Mongolian government was forced to take action against corruption. As a result of Gantogtokh's efforts, the government has begun to investigate corruption allegations and has taken steps to address the theft of public resources.[34][35]

Gantogtokh's activism and dedication to fighting corruption have made him a prominent social activist and influencer in Mongolia.
