Steemians,
I hope you're doing well. I have lot's of exciting news and knowledge to share with you! This week I had the honor of attending the Hedera Hashgraph Event live at the PlayStation Theater in Manhattan, New York. First, off if your wondering what I am even talking about you need to check out their platform. They have built a superior consensus algorithm alternative to blockchain technology. If you missed the conference which had over 81,000 people live streaming your still able to watch it online.
This company truly believes they can over power Bitcoin and Etherum by offering faster transactions. They are going to be launching their new virtual currency platform the second half of this year. Their CEO Mance Harmon says, "It will be able to process hundreds of thousands transactions per second." To put this in perspective Bitcoin processes less than 10 transactions per second and Etherum processes less than 25.
Furthermore, after the event I ended up meeting the development team for Mingo which is one of the first companies to publicly announce that they will be using their platform. Mingo's development team is based out of Ireland and they have created one of the most unique concepts I've ever seen. Imagine intertwining your Facebook, LinkedIn, Skype, Instagram, Twitter, and several other messaging apps all into one place. I personally sat down with the CEO and got to test out the technology. Talk about efficiency!!
Mingo is bringing crypto to over 2 billion mobile users. They are the first ICO to run its public fundraising through its own app. They are the first to build a multi-channel messenger and the first to make the process of learning crypto into a game. You can download the APP on an Anroid and iPhone.
Mingo is an interconnected set of supporting products. MingoMessenger is a multi-channel messenger app designed to discover, share, and transact with your messaging contacts. MingoWallet is a multi-currency wallet and tutor which also rewards users for learning progress with real cryptocurrency. MingoCoin is the cryptocurrency of Mingo to drive user adoption.
Currently 0.05% of the world's population use cryptocurrency - yet 75% of internet users use messaging apps. The fastest and easiest way to introduce cryptocurrency to the rest of the world is through the familiar interface of a messaging app, and Mingo is positioned to lead this charge.
MingoMessenger is rapidly growing and currently has over 50,000 users in more than 100 countries. These users can view all their messages on multiple messaging providers as a single feed per contact.
The delivery of MingoMessenger is proof of team Mingo’s ability to execute on the planned roadmap. MingoWallet makes getting started in cryptocurrency as simple as downloading an app. Users can send and receive the built-in cryptocurrency MingoCoin and exchange between crypto and fiat currencies. Users can transact with MingoCoin using MingoMessenger. Mingo has a partnership program and is building partnerships of substantial value globally. This is evidenced by our existing partnerships including Xunison, a home automation and streaming company, and CYFX, a forex trading company that gives Mingo liquidity. The strategic relationship with Xunison can provide at least 1.2 million users in the near future. Each of these new customers can use Mingo to manage their relationship with and pay their monthly subscription to Xunison using MingoCoin. This relationship will give Xunison’s other 20 million users access to Mingo.
