Dear ICONFi users,

ICONFi recently conducted an interview session with a certain group of users, and thankfully, many have responded to the interview questions. Along with their consent, ICONFi is going to share their experiences with ICONFi from how they came into the crypto world to how they are managing their crypto assets.

Check out the stories of other ICONFi users — It would be fun.

Meet Tom, a software developer currently running a company. Back in the days when Ethereum was just launched, Tom was a university student majoring in IT. Like or unlike others, Tom jumped into the blockchain and crypto world and now Tom is a crypto holder heavily using ICONFi to grow his crypto assets.

“I love the rates on ICONFi. The app is simple and easy to use, the rates are high. It made me leave DeFi platforms and put 100% of my crypto into CeFi platforms including ICONFi. Continuously changing and low yield rates on DeFi and complicated mechanisms have been the biggest reasons to make me use CeFi rather than DeFi.”

When the ICONFi team asked if Tom had ever introduced ICONFi to his friends and family, he said No — he doesn’t talk about himself to them, especially the fact that he is a crypto rich.

“I just don’t talk about it. Crypto is what I love and made me rich, but my friends and family are not into Crypto. If they held some Bitcoin or Ethereum, I would tell them to try ICONFi.”

But the interview was not full of positive reactions and cheers as Tom also had many concerns about CeFi platforms after the series of recent market turmoils.

“Security is the issue here. I know there has been zero hacking incident or any incident doing harm to my crypto assets, but still I feel like the CeFi platforms would have potential threats. I trust ICONFi, but it would be great if there’s more efforts to let users know better what’s happening with my assets. In fact, this interview gave me a trust boost — glad to know the ICONFi team is trying to listen to its users.”

When the team asked Tom about his investment strategies, he said the four letter word only: HODL. Tom answered that HODL is the best and winning strategy for him — simply adding the compound interests while HODLing his crypto assets.

“HODL!!”

After having this interview, the ICONFi team could figure out that the core values ICONFi wants to offer coincides with Tom’s user experience. ICONFi has wanted to make the app simple and easy to use while providing among-the-highest values to its users.

In the meantime, building trust with the users is the most important part of operating the ICONFi services and the most difficult part to attract users. The ICONFi team understands that trust is the key factor of the services and will do its best to make a trustworthy service for the users.

Protecting user assets and privacy have always been ICONFi’s top priority.
