BitGo, Soft Launch and More
As we move into Q2 2020, We would like to begin by saying a huge thank you to the community for their ongoing commitment and support of the TradeConnect network and team. With COVID-19 taking aim at all corners of the globe, it has been a heavy quarter with life-changing events occurring all around the world so we greatly appreciate the ongoing dedication and stoicism of the general community as we move closer to the soft-launch phase of our platform.
The good news for us here at TradeConnect is that, due to the fact that we are a remotely-based team, we have been able to continue working on the project and navigate our way through these unprecedented times. As we move into Q2 2020, our objective remains simple…
To be the largest multi-asset trading network in the world that connects cryptocurrency traders to highly liquid, established, global financial markets, such as forex, stocks, indices, commodities, and precious metals; as well as crypto markets, using cryptocurrency.
We most recently announced our selection of BitGo, the leader in institutional digital assets financial services, as our custodian and we have more partnerships coming soon including key strategic regional area educational and trading groups. We can assure you that you will start to see a lot more content in the news about TradeConnect in the coming weeks and months as more traders and investors learn about our platform.
In addition, Q1 saw the addition of key staff join the TradeConnect team which also involved some onboarding of new roles and general HR/admin. These new roles have been crucial in terms of our ongoing transition from our ICO phase to a fully-functioning platform. Michael has been hard at work developing our knowledge base for customer support as well as performing ongoing industry analysis, Athol has been working to develop important partnerships to increase the liquidity on our network and Penelope has been continuing to develop and nurture relationships with key industry influencers as well as developing key marketing information and strategies that will allow us to increase our visibility and thought leadership within the crypto industry throughout the months to come. We have all also been hard at work putting the finishing touches on the TradeConnect mobile app in order to get it ready for launch. Overall, the team is performing well together and we are on track for a strong Q2 which will include the soft launch of our TradeConnect mobile application and a lot more marketing activity as we push out to the masses.
In terms of our soft launch, we are also continuing forward with a fast pace…the positive news is that we are now the closest that we have ever been in terms of launching the leading multi-asset trading network in the world. With this in mind, we encourage everyone to remain focused as we move towards the biggest milestone in the history of TradeConnect.
Once the soft launch is complete, we will be focused on ongoing brand awareness as well as driving traders to choose TradeConnect as their go-to-platform for trading crypto and traditional financial markets using cryptocurrency. We know that a key to getting through a lot of the noise in our industry at the moment will be education, so we continue to speak with numerous trading groups to drive engagement as well as influencers in the space to create educational resources, reviews and other news integrations that will help to spread the word about the advantages of our TradeConnect trading network for cryptocurrency traders.
We also hope that the community will assist us to spread the word about our launch. If you are keen to assist or you have a following on social media that you think will help to drive awareness of our margin trading platform, we would love to hear from you over in our TradeConnect Telegram channel.
Finally, we say it all the time but we greatly appreciate our community and we want you to know that we are listening to your ongoing feedback in our Telegram channel. We understand community sentiment and we can assure you that we will be driving many new initiatives related to community relations in the coming weeks focused on internal communications, so please watch this space!
In terms of crypto news, don’t forget in 42 days you can also expect the bitcoin halvening to take place. For those who aren’t aware, a block halving is a process of reducing the rate at which new cryptocurrency units are generated. Specifically, it refers to the periodical halving events that decrease the block rewards provided to miners. You can read more about the upcoming bitcoin halvening on CoinTelegraph, ‘bitcoin halvening explained’.
All of us are interested to see how the halvening will impact our industry — will it be business as usual or will there be an increase/decrease in value before or after the halvening occurs? Tell us your thoughts on Twitter!
Once again, thank you for your support and ongoing dedication.
Happy trading!
The TradeConnect Team
