The past 2 weeks saw several developments such as the listing of DGX on other Decentralized Exchanges, website rebranding, sales operations and the ongoing DigixDAO governance updates.

Listing onto AirSwap and RadarRelay

DGX has gotten listed on several DEXes since its launch on April 8, with the latest being AirSwap. All the avenues that DGX can currently be found on are Kyber Network, AirSwap, EtherDelta and RadarRelay. We are also always working to increase the number of channels where we can be found.

Website re-design and branding overhaul of Digix

The entire branding overhaul has taken in total around 6 months to date. During this period, there has been quite a lot of work done and some still in progress. A brand guide/manual has been crafted in order to align the visual elements fronting our business. With it comes a new logotype and typeface forming Digix’s visual identity. Work on the website had started since the completion of the brand guide and is slated for completion in mid to end June.

Amongst the work for the rebranding, we have also made efforts to get our community to play a part by actively involving them in certain decision making processes, the most recent being polling for suitable and relevant website copy translations.

Sales and operations to date

Digix has sold approximately 46 kilograms of gold so far (±46,300 DGX), bringing us to about USD 2,000,000 worth of Gold holdings so far.

We also recently looked at the 1-year trading volume on Kyber Network and were surprised to find DGX amongst the top 5 tokens by trading volume.

Top 5 tokens by trading volume within 1-year range: DGX with ~USD 1.3mio

This is surprising as DGX had only been listed on Kyber for around ~1 month (Since May the 4th)!

Meetups and other community events

Welcomed Ms Bitcoin to Singapore

Mai Fujimoto, otherwise known as Miss Bitcoin of Japan, was in town last 2 weeks and presented on a crypto-influencer themed night at Ethereum Singapore meetup. Her expertise in branding and outreach in Japan was well shared to the team and when the time comes for us to make a push into Japan, we would be sure to hit her up.
