Cryptocurrency, Offering More Than Just Air
– By James McFadden –
As I started learning more and more about cryptocurrency and the ecosystem’s that surround them, one of the most unexpected things I have learned is that most emerging technology companies are embracing cryptocurrency not only to fund their projects but to also build a community around the products, services, and solutions they are bringing to the market.
Cutting-edge tech is no longer confined to the traditional pathways that have governed their success. There are more opportunities and tools at their disposal and they are embracing them at a backbreaking pace. What makes these companies even more attractive is that they are looking to create something that is either solving a real-world problem or creating portals to support communities that previously had very few opportunities to get their work out to those who might enjoy or benefit from it.
Take, for instance, Vabble. Vabble is a brand new concept that is being launched over the next year which is creating an interactive streaming experience for alternative film creators and documentary series producers.
According to their website, they are dedicated to creating a venue that intends to support freedom of speech. A Netflix if you will, for content creators who are often met with closed doors and impossible pathways to getting their creations out into the market.
I recently learned about Vabble through another cryptocurrency company called Axion.
Remember the days when you could put your money in a CD or a long-term bond and have it accrue interest at rates that were above the market? Nowadays, those rates are miniscule; but not at Axion.
Axion is built on the idea that you can purchase their token and ‘stake’ it for as little as 60 days or up to 15 years. The longer you ‘stake’ it, or lock it away, the higher your returns will be over time.
Think of it as savings accounts for cryptocurrency.
Now I have to qualify this a little here. One of the issues I have come to learn in this or any cryptocurrency market is that there are often many barriers to entry for those who are unfamiliar with how cryptocurrency markets work. I see that both as a good thing and a bad thing. Good because it’s not so simple that anyone and everyone can run to the hills and make a quick claim. Bad because those barriers can often keep otherwise eligible investors from wanting to jump in. There is a significant learning curve to this process but that is also why I believe it is worth taking the time to learn and understand everything that it takes to access these opportunities.
As I said, I came to learn about Vabble through Axion since they were assisting Vabble in promoting and launching their company through pre-sales (not available in the U.S.), an IDO (Initial Dex Offering), and then an Airdrop. What is an airdrop you say? Here’s a link where you can learn more.
I have put links to all of these new terms throughout this article if you would like to learn more but sufficeth it to say, I found what I learned through the Axion portal and the problems that Vabble is looking to solve, very exciting and intriguing and yes, I jumped on board.
Now please understand, this is not financial advice and I would venture to guess that most of our audience here would not be able to easily jump in. There are definitely a lot of hoops to jump through but for those of you that might have experience in the market, I would encourage you to take a long hard look. It’s fascinating and I personally believe it will be rewarding but as always, please, please, please, do your own research. It’s vital that you don’t just take what I say here and jump in. That’s not the way it should work.
That being said, if you would like to learn more about Axion, Vabble, or the Airdrop that is currently underway, (as of this writing there are less than two days to participate) I would encourage you to at least take a look and see what you think. I’m confident you will find it just as interesting as I have.
I would also like to extend this full disclosure and let you know that I am not being paid nor have I been asked to write this. This article is for informational purposes only and is in no way an attempt to offer financial advice.
