On June 19th 14:00 GMT, Swachhcoin’s leadership connected with its supporters on Swachhcoin Official Telegram Discussion Group to answer their most critical questions through a live Ask Me Anything ‘AMA’. Addressing the concerns of our community members has been one of the top priorities since the community is the essence of our project.
