Venezuela announces EL Petro CryptoDollar & PetroDollar XPD gets pumped
Update: Venezuela Petro Coin & PetroDollar XPD may not be the same thing. https://deeponion.org/community/threads/caution-petrodollar-xpd-has-nothing-to-do-with-this-recent-news.14789/
However that does not mean that XPD is not a coin with potential.
