Dear Pundians,

Despite February being the shortest month of the year, Pundi X consistently delivered upgrades and updates, including rewarding activities for the community. Lesser days cannot stop our team from achieving milestones anchored on our mission and vision.

We continued giving back to our community through PUNDIX coin delegation, PURSE liquidity reward, and BDL distribution. On the tech side, we have always been aggressive in upgrading and innovating our XPOS to further provide more access and support for onchain transaction with less gas fee required by adding Bitcoin BEP20, BNB BEP20, and USDT BEP20.

Be excited as we have also released the roadmap for Q2 2022 to Q4 2022 focusing on XPOS optimization, rewards and tokenomics, and many more.

With all these exciting things and more exhilarating events to come, our primary aim is to inform you with the steps Pundi X is taking in making cryptocurrencies affordable and available anywhere and anytime in the world.

Like a tiger, let’s leap to our report!

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT
