LAST WEEK’S News and Reports
◢ Hard Cap Has Reached
Since December 1, 2017 when the pre-sale started, we’ve had greater-than-expected interest from the community. By 00:00am EST, December 16 we’ve hit the hard cap of USD 60 million. The pre-sale closed earlier than expected.
We will contact all the successful participants of the pre-sale to confirm the wallet address and distribute NAS tokens. NAS will be listed on Huobi, Allcoin, Bcex and Lbank in the first half of January, with potentially many more major exchanges to come.
◥ Tsinghua University Talks Well-received
On December 14th, last Thursday, Nebulas CEO Hitters Xu and CTO Robin Zhu were in Tsinghua University at another Nebulas meetup to give talks and answer questions from Tsinghua Students. Hitters gave a talk entitled From the First Blockchain in China to Nebulas, in which he shared his personal insights of blockchain technology and introduced to the audience the concepts and structure of Nebulas while Robin explained from a technical angle the innovations of Nebulas.
The purpose of Nebulas’s meetup on Tsinghua campus where many great future talents are, is to help more future talents to understand the importance of blockchain technology and become part of it. Hitters said, “The blockchain industry is one with great value but not enough talents. We hope to make more people believers in blockchain industry and contribute to the great blockchain revolution.”
