Reddcoin shuts down criticism by partnering with Phore

Published

Reddcoin

Over the past few weeks, Reddcoin has been laying low with only a few mentions in the crypto tabloids. Currently ranked among the top 100 cryptocurrencies on CoinMarketCap, Reddcoin has a market capitalization of about $140 million. The coin has been dropping steadily from its January high of over 900 million in market capitalization due to the dipping cryptocurrency market. However, most critics have moved to dismiss this social currency claiming that it has been overshadowed by the advent of new, faster and more robust cryptocurrencies that make it easy for the general public to spend crypto online.

Reddcoin’s counter move

To counter the opinion of critics, Reddcoin has managed to partner with Phore Blockchain in an effort to integrate RDD into eCommerce enabled Blockchain ecosystems. With this newfound partnership, Reddcoin will not only be used for tipping but will also deliver real-world use cases for buyers and sellers online while also enabling flexibility in online marketplaces.

Basically, Phore is a Blockchain that enables easy, flexible and reliable transfer of valuable assets across a network. Apart from having its own Blockchain, Phore also boasts of its own cryptocurrency(PHR) as well as a decentralized marketplace that is still in its beta stage but available for downloads and ready for use. Furthermore, Phore also has a flexible smart contracts platform not to mention a reward for participation program where platform users get an interest payment for using the platform. Eventually, Phore’s open beta marketplace is set to be a game changer and the partnership with RDD will see the two entities thrive by combining their collective user base.

The team’s response to the partnership

According to Thomas Ambler, who is a co-CEO at Phore Blockchain,

Phore’s partnership with Reddcoin will create more flexibility to buy and sell goods and services in the Marketplace for holders of both PHR and RDD, as well as give vendors more options as to which currencies to accept

Over the past few years, e-commerce has become quite popular with a variety of items available for buying and selling in online marketplaces. Reddcoin and Phore are looking to build a scalable and flexible marketplace with reliable, fast transaction between platform users.

John “Gnasher” Nash (the CTO of Reddcoin) has also expressed his appreciation for the partnership by saying that Reddcoin is “very excited about the partnership with Phore Blockchain and what it brings to the Reddcoin community”

Other Reddcoin developments

Apart from the partnership with Phore, the Reddcoin team has also been at work collaborating with Lindacoin. Lindacoin is an anonymous cryptocurrency that uses 70% proof of stake and stealth addressing to mask and secure transactions. By working together, the two cryptocurrency entities will enable RDD holders to stake RDD on their mobile devices while earning staking rewards.

Additionally, Reddcoin has been identified by the BITA 50 Crypto market index a one f the quality cryptocurrency projects currently available. This is one of the indexes mostly used by researchers and top institution to find worthy Blockchain and cryptocurrency projects. Reddcoin’s inclusion into the BITA 2018 index is a clear sign that RDD is alive and well with more developments to come 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.”
