№00002, 30th, Aug, 2018
Welcome to the second edition of the Formosa Financial Newsletter!
This week we’ve got some more partnership news, platform progress, new team members, and a little international flavor sprinkled in there as well!
Formosa Financial Partnership News
If you’ve checked out our whitepaper or have been following us you know that one of the cornerstones of Formosa Financial’s all-in-one asset management platform is custody.
Safeguarding client assets is of utmost importance and priority, thus we’ve secured partnerships with some of the best hot and cold wallet custodial service providers in the world to build out our service platform.
The first custodial partnership we’re excited to announce is with one of the leading hot wallet solutions in the world. A company specializing in institutional grade custody and security, handling US$15 billion per month across all cryptocurrencies, they process 15% of all global bitcoin transactions…what’s the name of this custodial juggernaut?
Stay tuned to the official press release coming out soon!
With the hot wallet side covered, we’re also finalizing our partnership with one of the leading cold wallet solutions out there, a local Taiwanese firm with a very cool product solution for cold wallet storage.
Platform Progress
CTO Lorne and his development team have been hard at work coding and testing iterations and we are happy to announce that we are meeting our timeline goals with the alpha test of an MVP (Minimal Workable Product) scheduled to be ready for internal testing in early September.
The second version of the test platform, the private beta, is expected to be released in October. Around that time be sure to keep an eye out on our social media channels as we begin to release announcements of our pre-committed client list of companies invited to test the private beta.
