Telcoin speaking at BTC Miami
Several members of our team, including our CEO Claude, recently returned from BTC Miami, where they spoke on panels, delivered a keynote address, and networked with industry heavyweights.
After closing our ICO on December 30, TEL began trading on our first official exchange, Kucoin, on January 18. We’re in talks with additional exchanges, but have no official announcement to share just yet – stay tuned!
Update on the telecom side
Our Chairman Paul Neuner has been busy building the telecom business development team and negotiating direct relationships with telecom operators across the globe.
Telcoin is also exploring indirect connections via mobile money aggregators in order to achieve maximum reach in the interim. We’re currently focused on partnerships that support initial remittance corridors originating from the UAE and Europe, and terminating to Africa, South Asia, and Southeast Asia.
Telecoms are sensitive regarding any news involving cryptocurrency, and all insist on non-disclosure agreements covering any POCs. We are focused on POC deployment with telecom operators at this point – not media approval. We will get to press around these partnerships in due time.
Again, stay tuned to our Telegram channels for future updates!
Airdrop incoming
The goodwill airdrop for ICO contributors who didn’t receive a bonus, up to those entitled to a maximum bonus of 5 percent, will begin this week.
This gesture is being made to members of our community who were confused by earlier approximations of the token pricing, despite being transparently laid out in our whitepaper. Because bonuses came from the same ICO token pool, several smaller contributors voiced concern that they were “paying” for the bonuses being given to large or very early contributors.
The goodwill airdrop will maintain the advantage for pre-soft cap contributors, but our hope is that it strengthens the feeling of inclusion for others. Thank you for bearing with us through the ICO phase and hard cap issue!
