Is DeepBrain Chain (DBC) Deeply Unvalued?
It’s been nearly two months since DeepBrain Chain was trading at its all-time high that hovered around the value of 0.60$ per one DBC unit. Since then, DeepBrain Chain has been experiencing great downfalls that eventually made it trade far from its highest price. While investors and holders are probably having a hard time over having their favorite currency dropping pretty far from 0.60$, it seems that the DBC dev team is even more bummed out about it. That is how, a bit more than two weeks ago, DeepBrain Chain announced buying off 40 million DBC units from already existing investors. Why DBC decided to make this move and what is next for DeepBrain Chain?
DeepBrain Chain is Buying Off 40 million DBC units
On March 16th, the team behind DeepBrain Chain has announced that they are planning on buying off DBC units from various investors from more than one exchange market. On the mentioned date, the team behind DBC, otherwise known as DeepBrain Chain Foundation has made an announcement regarding repurchasing of the circulating tokens by using their official Twitter account. In the tweet, the DBC Foundation stated that they believe that DBC has a great potential, both technologically and regarding the market value. However, as the team considers that their currency is undervalued, they have stated that they wish to buy off 40 million DBC units, which means that they will be buying 4.4% of DBC units currently being traded in the market.
This announcement followed up the first important statement that DBC Foundation has made before mentioning repurchasing, regarding the lockup period of 350 million DBC tokens that was previously scheduled for release at the end of January 2018. Now, we know that the lockup is extended to 6 months from the original release date, which means that the lockup period should end by the end of July of 2018.
Further, in their tweet, DBC Foundation added the address containing the repurchasing agreement they have enabled right after the initial announcement. By March 21st, DBC already managed to repurchase 6 million DBC units and the number keeps rising as they are planning on buying off 40 million DBC.
Why DBC thinks that repurchasing of the circulating tokens is important for further development of DeepBrain Chain?
The answer is actually pretty simple: the team thinks that their token is not valued in accordance with its true value and technological capabilities, so they want to repurchase the existing circulating DBC units.
This is not an odd case as this case scenario happened many times before outside the world of blockchain technology and decentralized platforms.
Apparently, in the world of investing, it is not an odd thing to have a company or an individual conducting the same process when buying off shares or similar fiat values that they themselves sold out to the public in the first place.
This case scenario usually happens when a certain company or foundation wants to raise the value of their own shares so they go on buying them off by themselves.
That is how DBC Foundation is buying off 40 million DBC units that were previously sold to public and private investors. That way they will be able to raise the value of DBC units that will rest in the hand of investors unlike the units being bought off by DBC Foundation.
Consequently, the price of the circulating DBC units left after the repurchasing of 40 million DBC is over will rise. That way, DeepBrain Chain might be able to acquire the value that DeepBrain Chain team thinks it’s appropriate to its real value.
Once the repurchasing their own tokens at a very low price and leaving them out of circulation, the foundation will, later on, be able to sell these at a higher price once the value of DBC goes up, which is most likely to happen after 4.4% of circulating coins is temporarily removed from the market.
Hopefully, due to DBC’s involvement with Artificial Intelligence and the bold move of buying of an exquisite amount of DBC units, the DeepBrain Chain Foundation should succeed in their venture.
How is DeepBrain Chain doing at the current Moment?
After the latest change in the market, DeepBrain Chain fell by -9.43% against the dollar, which means that DBC is now trading in the red. In addition to dropping against the dollar, this currency is also dropping in oppose to BTC and NEO by 2.58% and 0.28%.
At this moment, DBC units can be purchased at 0.036$ per one token, which is still far from its all-time high of around 0.60$. That is how the decision of repurchasing circulating tokens made by DBC team seems to be the right thing to do for DBC and all faithful investors.
It is predicted that the price of DeepBrain Chain will most certainly rise back up once all 40 million DBC tokens are repurchased by the Foundation and placed back into the market.

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.
NFTs are already being actively traded in markets globally. For…
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…
