Reasons Why Buying Verge (XVG) is a Smart Decision

Published

Verge

Those new to the crypto world, but still interested in making an investment, often struggle with finding a proper coin to back. This is more than understandable, considering how many of them there are these days. Still, there are only so many currencies that are actually a good choice. If you do not have a lot of money to invest, and you still wish to make a good choice, then Verge (XVG) might be just the coin you are looking for.

About Verge

Verge (XVG) is crypto that is dedicated to providing its users with privacy and safety. It is among the biggest anonymous coins that you can find. It started off as a rebranded version of a coin called DogeCoinDark and was launched in 2014. Two years later, however, it changed its name to Verge, despite the fact that it continued using the same currency as DogeCoinDark.

It uses one of the most advanced blockchain technologies around, and it allows its users to choose whether they wish for their transactions to be anonymous or public. For some, even this is a good enough reason to invest in this crypto. However, Verge offers a lot more than that.

Reasons for investing in XVG

A limited supply

When you are on the lookout for a coin whose price has real potential, the first thing that you should look is whether or not it has a limited supply, and what is its cap. When it comes to Verge, its supply is capped, and the limit is 16.5 billion. Not only that, but the large majority of the coins have already been mined. Because of this, the price of XVG has a large potential to jump up, since the demand will increase in time.

The price is still cheap and the coin is stable

Many believe that it is only a matter of time before Verge gets an increase in value, and by that time, getting rich via smart investment alone will be the thing of the past. It would be much smarter to invest in it right now, before the market recovers, and Verge reaches the value it had in December 2017. According to the CoinMarketCap, its current price is $0.039104 per coin, which allows for the purchase of a large number of coins at a very low price.

Just remember that at its height, Verge’s value was $0.23 per coin. Those who invest now will have quite a good time once the current price returns to its former glory.

Also, Verge can offer much more stability than many other cryptos out there. This stability holds against the US dollar, as well as against BTC. Thanks to this fact, you can be sure that Verge is not a scheme that will only trick you out of your money. Instead, it is a serious project that is worth looking into.

Privacy and security

The one thing that gives Verge an advantage over many, many other cryptos is its approach to security and privacy of its users. Many coins offer anonymous transactions, which was great at first. The problems appeared when anonymity was misused for criminal activities, which has forced a lot of exchanges, and even entire countries, to stop dealing in such coins.

Verge has obviously recognized this as a potential issue long ago, which is why it started offering both public and anonymous transactions. Those who wish to send payments anonymously can use highly secure protocols like I2P, Tor, as well as its newest edition, the Wraith protocol. Whether or not the customers will use this option is completely their choice, which allows Verge to go where other cryptos cannot.

Pros and cons of using Verge (XVG)

Of course, Verge has its good and bad sides, just like any other crypto out there. Its positives include fast and easy transactions, the possibility of making an exchange with other cryptos, and of course, the choice of total anonymity if that is what the user desires.

The bad things about this crypto include the low ratio of liquidity and the lack of fiat currencies. Also, the value can be unpredictable at times, which makes it slightly uncertain.

In the end, the choice whether or not you are going to invest in this crypto is entirely yours. Verge has a lot of potentials, and it has entered quite a few partnerships lately, and there are no signs of stopping it. It is definitely not a currency that will give up due to bearish market, and it is expected that we will see a lot more of it in the future.

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…

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.”
