BOOM, A NEW SOCIAL E-COMMERCE PLATFORM THAT ENABLES CONSUMERS TO BUY, SELL AND PAY FOR EVERYTHING ONLINE, WITHOUT A BANK ACCOUNT, THANKS TO THE POWER OF BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY, AND A NATIVE TOKEN CALLED MULTICOIN (MTCN), IS GOING LIVE AND OFFERING THE OPPORTUNITY FOR QUALIFIED INVESTORS TO ACQUIRE MULTICOINS

PARIS, July 10, 2022

Today 1.7 billion adults (including 1 billion women) in Africa, Latin America, South-East Asia, and certain parts of Europe and North America have no bank accounts and are thus excluded from the global digital economy. They represent 35% of the world’s adult population and are currently out of the reach of global brands and merchants, despite their untapped purchasing power. Boom is a social e-commerce platform that enables everybody to buy, sell and pay for everything online without a bank account and without fees.

Boom is a blockchain-powered ecosystem that connects the 1.7 billion unbanked in the world, as well as those seeking a safe, no-fees alternative to existing commerce, to global brands and merchants, that now have a new sales channel to address this neglected audience.

Boom consists of an e-commerce marketplace, a native ERC-20 token, the Multicoin (MTCN) which is the sole medium-of-exchange on Boom, a built-in wallet for payments, a secure text, audio and video messaging for communication and social media for community building and management.

“Boom is fulfilling Satoshi Nakamoto’s dream of financial inclusion for all by bringing crypto to the masses for use in commerce for everyday goods and services” states Peter Alfred-Adekeye, Boom Founder and CEO.

Boom was successfully launched in Nigeria on 30th of June 2022 and is launching in Paris, France on the 12th of July to a limited number of pilot merchants and consumers. Boom will be launching in Ethiopia, Congo, Egypt, Morocco, Angola, South Africa, Indonesia, and Argentina in Q4 2022.

Boom will be available worldwide for free, in Apple IOS and Google Android app stores from September 2022.

To inject liquidity into the eco-system, Boom will be offering a limited number of Multicoins to qualified investors between July 18, 2022, and July 31, 2022.

The Multicoin (MTCN) is an ERC-20 utility and governance token, built on the Ethereum blockchain. MTCN is Boom’s native utility token, that transmits value between transacting parties within the Boom ecosystem. MTCN is required to process all transactions within Boom. Moreover, governance rights are attached to MTCN allowing holders to participate in decisions regarding Boom development and technology roadmap.

All prospective qualified investors satisfying Boom investment requirements are invited to connect to www.boom.market for more information.
