Newsletter 29: Approaching Milestone
“There are better starters than me but I’m a strong finisher.” — Usain Bolt
It’s been 15 months to get to this point, and we’re just a week from completing the exchange. After reaching next week’s deadline, all development for exchange launch will be completed and we can focus on testing, fine-tuning and debugging before launching the testnet trading competitions beginning at the end of October or early September.
Although it’s taken a long time to get here and we’ve seen some new arrivals in the derivatives sector since, we’ve kept to our timeline to ensure that we deliver the best user experience possible. Testnet will be carried over 2 months. When it comes to our work, we’re serious about getting it done right.
At the end of the day, it’s not how you start, but how you finish that matters.
Exchange Update: Development Completion @ 90%
Team Update: New Advisor for the US
For the past few months, we’ve been building our presence in the US in preparation for the long game in the cryptocurrency derivatives market. This resulted in the appointment of a legal firm, a broker dealer, and a full-time BitOrb representative. We are happy to announce a new addition to the team with experience in the US financial sector to support our setup for the STO in the US.
