The strategy under the sleeve that Stellar (XLM) holds for 2018

Published

on

Stellar

At first sight, it looks clear that Stellar designed a plan, very carefully, to attract new potential users for 2018 and even further; and the truth is they are successfully making it.

The plan Stellar XLM has made represents a vast range for the future they’re envisioning; one where if you haven’t invested yet in their coin, you should probably need to reconsider it.

Do you want to see what strategies I am talking about? Let’s take a deeper look below:

Stellar takes advantages of Ethereum deficiencies

Even though the popularity of Ethereum has significantly grown, some of their primary processes are still misfiring, letting the coin stay with some vulnerabilities that somehow Stellar may efficiently resolve.

The major attribute that has created traction for Ethereum has been the smart contract concept; and according to different reports, at least 34,000 out of 1 million contracts downloaded were deficient.

It is like this that Stellar appears on the frame since the ICO of Ethereum seems to be needing a base transfer to a safer platform. And on the other hand, Stellar has one of the most reputed platforms at the moment, with the characteristic of the mega signature on the execution of a smart contract, a must in a 100% foolproof system.

Stellar plans to defeat Ripple in their own ground

The similarities in these two platforms are remarkable, on the one hand, they both offer the same service, cross-border currency transfer, and banking. On the other, both supply their users with a gateway to connect them with their respective Blockchain.

In short, both are fighting for the same user target, and at the end, only one will be the winner; a title XLM plans to obtain by using xRapid, xVia and xCurrent.

Stellar organizes win-win alliances in order to excel their service

Alliances are crucial for cryptocurrencies, and Stellar is in fact, taking advantage of it. The first partnership was with IBM and Deloitte, a delightful common work that allowed the users to be more confident while putting on a bet. Consequently, the American technology company, Stripe, endorsed XLM and decided to support the project widely.

At the same time, in May, Stellar will launch “Stellarport”, an exchange platform that will allow users to access new ICO coins in a real-time matter. It is expected from this, that Stellar may put to function on the platform the technology FairX from IBM, which will make trading transactions way faster.

New Technology deployed on the Stellar network

Stellar XLM is thinking of using Lighting network, a technology that will allow them to be able to manage a massive number of users without compromising the quality of transactions.

It seems like Stellar plans to learn from other’s mistakes, like the case of Bitcoin, that definitely was not prepared for the humongous amount of clients they received. Unlike them, Stellar, knowing that is right on track of making alliances to increase their users base, want to improve already the platform the clients would have to handle.

Stellar applying for a more global market

Stellar plans to expand on a global level, but in this case, they’re thinking of diving into markets unexplored someway. That is the case of the African market, one the most untouched financial environments in the world.

The strategy is to engage with all of the increasing technological population in the region, and all the people who live in the urban zones.

As a result, the company expects to fight firmly with other platforms such as MoneyGram, Western Union, and even the local M-pesa.

Summing up, all of the strategies Stellar is working on, tend to make the lives of the users more straightforward and favorable; and that’s something definitely people are likely to embrace, so as a consequence what we can predict for the future of Stellar XLM, is an incredible success.

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.”
