NEXT.Exchange looking forward into 2021
We’re approaching year’s end, and I think we can convincingly say this has been one of the craziest years in history. With Covid-19 still holding the world in her grip, we’re starting to see the light at the end of the long and dark tunnel. In a much less impactful way, we feel the entire crisis reflects on the year of NEXT. We, started 2020 with a positive mindset, with our exchange’s launch getting ready to make it a fantastic year. Unfortunately, things didn’t go as planned, and for the rest of 2020, it has been challenging to see anything but disaster. How would we proceed? Will we even be able to fix the exchange and regain the trust of our community? These were questions that ripped the team apart in mid-2020, with only a few people left to make our dream become a reality.
Despite all these events, we start to see the light at the end of our tunnel. With a small dedicated team, we re-launched our platform with version 2.0, where we lay the foundation for 2021. The team is pleased about how the re-launch has been received, even though it may not have been what everyone expected. We decided to re-launch with a few trading pairs and without marketing, and we’re glad we took this approach. We want those new users of the platform to enjoy a satisfying experience/interface without bugs, and we’re almost there. Finally, the last transactions of the long-awaited PayT airdrop have been made so we can stop looking back at 2020 and start looking forward to 2021.
First things first, we hear you! We’ve lowered the BTC and ETH withdrawal cost and now offer a very market competitive fee. Next up, we’ll enable USDT trading pairs in the first week of 2021. Suppose everything continues to go according to plan. In that case, we start ramping up marketing, attracting more users, adding new assets, and enabling additional features, like staking and yielding.
Payaccept integration will start in Q1 of 2021. It will allow us more resources for development, a bigger team to push things forward, and more importantly, we’ll offer fiat trading under the PayAccept license.
We’re also finalizing the NEXT bridge, allowing users to stake their NEXT in a smart contract, replacing the manual payout shared masternodes, and making it easier for users to get returns on their investments.
Our Head of Public Relations is already in touch with parties like CoinMarketCap and Coingecko, so once the volume starts picking up, we can quickly get ourselves tracked on the most used platforms in the crypto space.
We’re very excited about the road ahead, and we hope you are also. We’d like to thank you for staying with us, being this patient, and understanding that we couldn’t wish for a better community. For now, we’re going to enjoy some well-deserved rest and enjoy new years eve. Stay safe, and see you in 2021!
