Huobi is upping the stakes with a generous 2 BTC reward for every successful referral to its Global Elite Program. This is by far the highest reward I have seen for a referral scheme.
What is Huobi Global Elite Program?
The Global Elites program by Huobi is meant to build strategic partnerships with a host of valuable entities/persons. Huobi Global Elite Program has been around for some months now, where Huobi seeks out Blockchain heavyweights, VC funds, brokerage firms, proprietary exchanges and exciting entities in the Blockchain tech scene in a win-win collaboration.
The idea is that Global Elite members refer new users to Huobi Ecosystem, e.g. traders using Huobi Pro, the 3rd largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world. Huobi would benefit from a larger reach and be able to penetrate markets where it previously could not. In exchange, Global Elite members will get 40% of the trading fees Huobi earns, as well as bonuses in the form of Huobi tokens.
It seems that Huobi has an inner club of Blockchain leaders with clout. Networking opportunities are held globally to get the Global Elites together. The meetings could be with one of the Huobi countless subsidiaries as well. For example, Huobi has now branched out to dominate various parts of the Blockchain value chain. Huobi has a research & development arm (Huobi Research), a news portal with key opinion pieces (Huobi News), an early stage funding company (Huobi Capital), an incubator for Blockchain tech (Huobi Labs), and an overarching fund to support the expansion into new, exciting areas (Huobi Ecosystem)
The Huobi Global Elite Program is a continuous relationship that does not end with harvesting transaction fees. According to a source in Huobi, more than 50% of Global Elites eventually entered into strategic cooperation with Huobi or a sister organization of Huobi.
Huobi seems to be intent on getting the Global Elites to be… well, global! With a reward of 2 BTC for each referral, one can expect that the offices of Huobi be busy by the barrage of applications.
What is the Progress of Huobi Global Elites Now?
According to Huobi Global Elite page, there are now Global Elites in more than 20 countries in all 6 continents. It says on the page that the program is looking for people with resources in digital currency space, own Blockchain companies, have access to major clients, media or government.
Huobi has also gotten the buy-in of more than 100 strategic partners for this project. Notable names are Node Capital, Elastos and Genesis Fund.
There has also been joint projects set up by Global Elites such as Huobi University which offers high-quality courses and Huobi World Tour which meets businesses all around the world.
In Jun 2018, Global Elites from Europe co-hosted the European Quantification summit. That was followed in August by a similar event in South Korea.
Global Elites program looks like a success now, and it seems that with a reward of 2 BTC as a referral fee, the program by Huobi will only be further supercharged. This is a space to watch, and if you think you are perfect to be a Global Elite, let me refer you and earn 2 BTC! Hah!
