How Crowd Genie Intends to Bring Big Investments to Small Enterprises

Published

on

Crowd Genie

Established lending platform Crowd Genie is expanding into the cryptosphere with their proprietary ERC-20 token. The CGC cryptocurrency will augment their preexisting Crowd Genie platform, adding additional functionality – providing a smart contract based reputation program that solidifies the trust between borrower and lender. Their currency based platform is already actively providing capital investment to what is referred to as ‘Small and Medium Enterprises’ or SMEs. These smaller companies often find it difficult or impossible to acquire the initial investments they require, due to a lack of established background or viable assets to borrow against.

Crowd Genie intends to use their new blockchain to alleviate this issue. The first step is to create a robust, international system for identity verification. They’re calling this a ‘Digital Passport,’ which will aggregate identification documents, background and even physical visits to a Crowd Genie site. As part of their ongoing compliance with the laws and regulations of the country of Singapore, this high level of verification satisfies the needs for Know Your Customer, Anti-Money Laundering and Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act standards.

Their eventual goal is to create a networked infrastructure that will allow borrowing across borders within Asia. The use of a smart contract capable token also allows them to deal in asset classes that are not traditionally considered viable for borrowing against. Crowd Genie is a rarity in the cryptocurrency world, where they are using existent technology in a unique way – no new technology must be implemented to bring their project to viability.

Integration of the CGC Token into the Crowd Genie Platform

Through a common tokenized economy, Genie will be able to offer options that would otherwise be unfeasible for a lending platform. The Digital Passport system ensures an immutable, public face is attached to each borrower and lender, using the blockchain itself to store the information in a way that cannot be altered. From there, a borrower can receive a number of tokens in return for their assets. This includes asset classes that the traditional lending industry would be unable to facilitate – items that cannot be shattered into fractions so that lenders can diversify. As the blockchain acts as an intermediary, the tokens bought by lenders will maintain their value.

The Genie platform, and by extension the CGC token within it, allow both smaller borrowers and smaller lenders to enter the game. As the cost of an individual token is fairly low, and the platform itself manages the assets within the blockchain, it is possible for lenders to purchase a fairly small amount of tokens. Those tokens will then earn in-system interest as the loan is paid back. As is the case with most cryptocurrency, the CGC token will also be available on multiple exchanges.

The Incentive for Using CGC Over Fiat

There are two large incentives that Genie is offering to their users who choose to use the CGC token. The first and most obvious is through lowered interest rates for borrowers and reduced administration fees for lenders.

The second is through the use of a CGC Credit sub-token. In combination with the Digital Passport profile system, users on both ends of a transaction will have the ability to earn CGC Credits. Borrowers who make payments on time and in full should be viewed as a reliable investment, and are rewarded as such with CGC Credits. Lenders that are engaged in the ecosystem and quick to close their deals will be rewarded as well. These credits are not a monetary asset; simply a means of measuring the reputation of actors within the ecosystem.

Conclusion

Genie ICO  has a rare trifecta of positive indicators – they are a preexisting business that both understand how to operate within their industry, and has a proven record of success within. The way that they intend to integrate their new CGC token is novel – but not a new technology, which means that there is no need for extensive systems development. Finally, their use case for the new proprietary blockchain is legitimate and cannot be accomplished with another established cryptocurrency instead.

These factors make the CGC token a desirable investment, without even taking into account the ability to invest in the Crowd Genie platform. Unlike many of the current cryptocurrency projects that depend upon bringing new technologies and systems to fruition, the ease of integration suggests we should see an operating CGC token ecosystem in a reasonably short time span.

BNB Price Surges Past $300, Faces Crucial $339 Hurdle: What’s Next?

Published

on

By

BNB price has noted significant gains over the past few days, surging past the psychological resistance of $300. The native cryptocurrency of the Binance Exchange has surpassed Solana to regain its position as the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The digital currency has been rallying lately with a 7-day profit of more than 15%. Additionally, BNB has clocked a phenomenal gain of 38% in the month to date.

Binance Coin Outlook

BNB price has been on a strong bull run for the past week, breaking out of its consolidation. Even so, the asset has experienced a correction in its uptrend over the past 24 hours but remains above the crucial level of $300. BNB’s total market cap has decreased by 4% over the past day to $48 billion, while the total volume of the asset traded over the same period dipped by about 15%.

Over the past year, Binance Coin has had to cope with Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt (FUD)  on the back of the regulatory troubles of its underlying exchange. Earlier, the BNB price touched a low of $223.50, a few days after its former CEO, Changpeng Zhao, pleaded guilty to money laundering charges. However, the cryptocurrency has managed to rebound 46% in value since then.

The recent price rally has been associated with various positive developments in the Binance ecosystem, including the Introduction of the Isolated Margin Auto-Transfer Mode. This feature enables…

Solana Price Surges Beyond $100, Dethroning Ripple and BNB To Secure Fourth Place

Published

on

By

Solana price performance in recent times has been remarkable, surpassing Ripple and Binance Coin to become the fourth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap. The SOL price breached the critical level of $100 for the first time since April 2022 over the weekend to imbue optimism among investors. However, the altcoin has corrected by 7%, suggesting that the market is overheated. At the time of writing, the ‘Ethereum killer’ was trading slightly lower at $111.60.

SOL Outlook

Solana price has made a significant recovery over the past few weeks, climbing above the psychological level of $100. The altcoin has been one of the best-performing assets this year, extending its year-to-date gains to more than 1,025%, with more gains recorded in the past month alone. However, even with such growth, analysts have noted that Solana has a bleak chance of topping its ATH of $260.

The reason behind this is the increase in supply relative to its value. In November 2021, when the Solana price hit its all-time high of $260, its total market capitalization was around $78 billion. Despite the value of the crypto asset being less than half of what it was at the top, its market cap is currently hovering near $50 billion.

This has been brought about by the increase in the Solana supply by more than 100 million SOL over the past two years. According to some analysts, for the altcoin to retest $260, its…

Solana Price Skyrockets to 20-Month Peak Amidst Memecoin Frenzy

Published

on

By

Solana price has noted significant gains over the past few weeks, climbing to its highest level since April 2022. The ‘Ethereum Killer’ almost topped the crucial level of $100 on Friday, before pulling back slightly. The asset’s recent surge has catapulted Solana’s total market cap to $39.6 billion, ranking 5th after and above BNB and XRP, respectively. Solana has jumped by more than 22% in the past week and more than 80% in the month to date. At the time of writing, SOL price was trading 0.90% lower at $93.10.

Catalysts Behind SOL’s Rally

Solana price has been on a strong bull run over the past few days, rocketing to its highest level in 20 months as the network benefits from the substantial activity and strong interest in memecoins. The SOL token, the native digital asset of the high-performance blockchain platform Solana, has shown some serious strength over the past few weeks, outperforming all the altcoins in the market.

The recent surge in the Solana price has been linked to heightened on-chain activities on the Solana blockchain. Notably, the ongoing hype for the blockchain’s speedy transactions, cheap fees, and a lottery of meme coin issuances has buoyed SOL’s on-chain activity. Metrics have revealed that Solana has been the strongest draw among on-chain traders, with trading volumes and network fees outperforming Ethereum- the largest altcoin by market cap.
