Electroneum: Crypto currency for the masses

First of all, a small reminder: today is the last day to get a 50% bonus when investing in Electroneum. Starting tomorrow, September 21st, 2017 the bonus will be 40% (still a good bonus, but wouldn’t it be nicer to get 50%? ;) ).

Remember how I told you that something that made me a bit iffy was the volume of ETNs floating around? … Now that I have thought more about it, having crypto currency for the masses doesn’t sound like such a terrible idea. It has been something that most alt-coins have tried to accomplish for the past 4 years and have failed to do. I have a feeling Electroneum will accomplish that through mobile mining.

So yes, mobile mining probably will not appeal to the experienced people in the crypto currency world. Yes, I know, PC mining is more effective (more power, faster speeds, etc.), but not everyone has the funds to invest in the equipment for PC mining right away, I know I don’t (at least not right this second), but mobile mining for a newbie / the average person is the perfect starting point.
For example, if I had not invested on this ICO I would have been willing to test their App, and if I started seeing crypto currency coming my way, this would probably encourage me to a) venture into PC mining and/or b) start purchasing crypto currency from an exchange. I have a feeling other people feel that way as well (especially because if I am not mistaken, this is the first coin that has been successfully designed to be mined on a phone without draining your battery or killing it, and considering the prices of some smartphones - the iPhone X’s starting price of USD 999 is insane -, I doubt people will want to risk damaging them).
Another exciting thing they are implementing is a game that will allow you to mine a bit more than when running the app in your background on your phone. I can't wait to find more info about the game format.

Of course an App is not enough to appeal to the masses, after all how can you get people to download your App? … Well, it’s all about marketing, and Electroneum not only has high profile developers but they are also top notch, real-world marketers who know how to attract the masses.

Currently the App has only been released for Android and in the play store, but to all those Apple lovers out there, don’t fret as the iOS App is coming soon (from what I read they are still tweaking some details). Please note that at this point you will not be able to start mining or do much with the App. Right now it is working as a countdown, but come November 1st, 2017 every other feature will go live.

If you decide to invest on this ICO, I would appreciate it if you use my referral code (5E52E7) or you can click here (anyone using my referral code will be given an additional 1% bonus as long as you use it when you sign up because you need to create your ETN wallet in order to invest). The good news is that you can also invest from exchanges such as Coinbase, Kraken, to name a few because after you decide how much you want to invest and select your payment method the system will generate a unique / personal BTC or ETH wallet (depending on the payment method you select) which is used to fund your ETN purchase. This will enable the team to track the transfer accordingly and ensure you are being credited with your ETN once the ICO is over … But before you do any investment, be sure to visit their website: http://electroneum.com and read their whitepapers as there is a lot of detailed information on them. They have 2 WPs, one is the overview and the other one has the technical information.

And once again, don’t forget that the 50% bonus ends today September 20th, 2017! You have less than 24 hours to take advantage of it (take into account the different time zones). So far there are 9851 registered users, over 2850 ETH raised and over 143 BTC raised.

Cheers!
