VeChain (VET) is Trading Up While Selecting Masternodes

Published

VeChain

VeChain (VET) is one of the currencies that are recovering from the market dip more than just well. However, there is a good reason for having this currency both, trading up and trending up. Actually, there is more than only a single reason behind the sudden benevolent turnout for VET. That is why we are analyzing VET as well as the activity made by the team behind the 16th-best currency according to the global coin ranking list.

The Selecting of Masternodes

Maybe one of the top reasons why VET is going through a pretty benevolent period where this currency is trending up and gaining on its popularity is the fact that VeChain is selecting the Masternodes.

VeChain’s network is driven by VeChain Thor full node, and connected to the Authority Masternodes, that way keeping the only copy of the blockchain. The node that keeps the record of the blockchain is at the same the only block which is allowed to create new blocks together with validating the blocks.

The system works with Proof-of-Authority, initiating the launching of 1o1 Authority Nodes. All users of these nodes should first make sure that their identity is established. These Authority Masternodes will be rewarded by the VET network, and the users who have been working on participated in Platform Governance or the users who have been working on the maintaining of the VeChain Thor Blockchain will be entitled to be awarded the Authority Masternodes.

The groups that qualify for getting Authority Masternodes will be rewarded and the main cause for handing out these masternodes is to make sure that the VeChain Network is being expanded.

To ensure the quick progress in the growth of the Blockchain, Authority Masternodes will be given only to certain groups and these groups include users that are contributing to the network, enterprise users, blockchain developers, research partners in the academic field and business development ambassadors.

All qualified users will also have to follow up with the guidelines that are set to determine which groups will be getting the Authority Masternodes. This case, in a way, aided VET in establishing a better rate of stability in the market, which is seen in the last few days in the performance of VeChain.

VeChain and eGrid Partnership                                             

Acquiring a new partnership is always a good thing for a currency, as this case provides it with the increased visibility in the eyes of potential investors and partnerships.

That is how VeChain had another market boost in the newly acquired partnership with eGrid. The partnership with eGrid lead to having VeChain listed as an SCM, CRM, and ERP, which means that VeChain’s technology is now helping China’s automobile industry operating smoothly.

Another important partnership that should include VeChain is ought to be sealed with LVMH luxury goods, that seems to be sharing an interest in this project.

In addition to these partnerships, Tim Draper, one of the most famous venture capital investors based in the US, claims that VeChain is going to pay off in the long run so might end up trying to buy your coffee in Starbuck with any of the available fiat currencies and the vendor would laugh at your five years from now. It is obvious that this investor believes that cryptos will have a bright future pretty soon, being able to join the mass use in the “real world”.

How is VeChain doing at the Current Moment?

For the past week, VET was doing a pretty good job in bouncing off while showing the amazing results as this currency traded in the green for almost the entire week, acquiring a rise of over 40% during g that period of time.

After the latest change in the market, VET is still trading in the green with the latest rise of 12.27% against the dollar, which means that this currency is still trading in the green. Only a day ago, we could witness the case of VEN going up for over 40% against the dollar, also trading up against BTC and ETH.

At the current moment, VET is trading up against BTC for 4.47% while trading in the green. However, VEN is dropping in opposite to ETH, which means that ETH is progressing at a better pace of growth at the current moment.

After the latest change in the market, VET managed to go beyond the value of 3$ per one unit and is now able to be purchased at the price of 3.40$ per one VEN unit.

VeChain market its all-time high on January 22nd, when this currency was trading around 9$ per one unit. It is more than evident that VeChain could soon reach its record price in case its pace of growth remains the same, without any radical negative changes in 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. 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…
