Bitcoin Cash (BCH) Receives Boost As ‘Bitcoin Jesus’ Joins FinTech Startup

Published

Bitcoin Cash

The Bitcoin Cash (BCH) community got a major boost today when it was announced that two of Bitcoin.com Chief whips will be joining the Finetech startup known as MoneyToken, as advisers. The new members from Bitcoin.com are its CEO, Roger Keith Ver who is known by many as Bitcoin Jesus, and the Chief Operating Officer (COO) of the site, Mate Tokay.

In the new startup known as Moneytoken, Bitcoin Cash will be used as collateral for users borrowing from the platform. The main idea behind the platform is to offer crypto-backed loans, a stable coin known as MTC and a decentralized exchange service. The project is still in its ICO phase with the buying of tokens available through Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Litecoin (LTC).

The amazing thing about the project is that you can still apply for a loan on the platform as the token sale is ongoing.

In the press release announcing the new partnership, the co-founder of Moneytoken, Jerome MacGillivray, had this to say:

“The Bitcoin Cash community is a unique and powerful force in cryptocurrency; adding our support to Bitcoin Cash and allowing our potential token buyers and future lenders and borrowers to operate in BCH, only adds to our portfolio and strengthens the value of MoneyToken as a product for all our users”

Roger Ver, also known as ‘Bitcoin Jesus’ for being an early investor in the coin, has been predicting that Bitcoin Cash (BCH) will flippen, or dethrone, both Ethereum and Bitcoin by the year 2020. This partnership shows his commitment to this prediction. He had this to say about the announcement through the press release:

“We are happy to be a part of this project since we can clearly see the strong team, disruptive and self-sustaining business model and, what is more important, the real value it can bring to the crypto community”

Current market analysis of BCH indicates that it is in the lower levels of $1,181 at the moment of writing this. The coin that is being predicted to overtaking BTC and ETH has had better times in the markets as was seen on the day BCH was added on Coinbase. The coin managed to reach levels of $4,000. This shows that BCH does have the potential of orchestrating the said flippening.

Hong Kong, Hong Kong, 25th January, 2021, // ChainWire //

Xeno Holdings Limited (xno.live ), a blockchain solutions company based in Hong Kong, has announced the listing of its ecosystem utility token XNO on the ‘Bithumb Korea’ cryptocurrency exchange on January 21st 2021.

Xeno NFT Hub (market.xno.live ), developed by Xeno Holdings, enables easy minting of digital items into NFTs while also providing a marketplace where anyone can securely trade NFTs.

The Xeno NFT Hub project team includes former members of the technology project Yosemite X based in San Francisco and professionals such as Gabby Dizon who is a games industry expert and NFT space influencer based in Southeast Asia.

NFT(Non-Fungible Token) technology has recently gained huge focus in the blockchain arena and beyond, making waves in the online gaming sector, the art world, and the digital copyrights industry in recent years. The strongest feature of NFTs is that “NFTs are unique digital assets that cannot be replaced or forged”. Unlike fungible tokens such as Bitcoin or Ether, NFTs are not interchangeable for other tokens of the same type but instead each NFT has a unique value and specific information that cannot be replaced. This fact makes NFTs the perfect solution to record and prove ownership of digital and real-world items like works of art, game items, limited-edition collectibles, and more. One of the ways to have a successful…

Should Crypto Projects Devote Resources to Community Growth and Marketing?

Published

on

2020 has been an incredible year for crypto as investors have generated windfall profits and crypto projects have seen their businesses gain the spotlight they’ve been looking for.  While Bitcoin has received most of the attention after major institutional investors announced they were accumulating the increasingly scarce asset, many altcoins have also seen their fair share of glory.  When looking at all the big winners of the past year, the first project that probably comes to mind is Chainlink, having appreciated by more than 550% YTD and now valued at over $4.5 billion.  But, the actual biggest winner of the year is HEX with a YTD return of over 5,000%.

I mention both of the above projects as they have each taken slightly different paths to achieve greatness.  Chainlink has devoted resources toward building a fundamentally sound business with many strategic partnerships while HEX has spent vast sums of money on marketing and promotion.  Both approaches are valid, but one thing is certain, it is absolutely imperative for crypto projects to let the crypto community know what makes them special.  Of course, one of the reasons that makes crypto so valuable is the powerful blockchain technology that most projects are utilizing.

Cryptocurrency vs. Blockchain Technology

It’s important to make a distinction between blockchain technology and cryptocurrency.  Although they are often used interchangeably, they are different.  Blockchain technology and crypto were both created after the 2008 financial crisis, but cryptocurrency…

“NFTs are extremely flexible in their usage, from digital event tickets to artwork, and while NFTs have a very wide spectrum of uses and categories XENO will initially focus its partnership efforts and its own item curation on three primary areas: gaming, sports & entertainment, and collectibles.”, said XENO NFT Hub president Anthony Di Franco.

He also added “This does not mean we will prohibit other types of NFTs from our ecosystem However, it simply means that XENO’s efforts as a company will be targeted into these verticals initially as a cohesive business approach.”

Development and Procurement Lead, Gabby Dizon explained, “Despite our initial focus, we found ourselves with a unique opportunity to host some of the works of Mr. Hiro Yamagata. We are collaborating with Japanese artist Hiro Yamagata to enshrine some of his artwork into NFTs.”
