Happy New Year everyone - most of us in Asia, etc are now back to work this week as the Lunar New Year holidays has now started to draw to a close.
@weatherlightx , that is a fantastic summary - thanks for sharing. Thank you to our very own @blockchainisfuture as well for chiming in. Both of you are bang on about the thoughts we have in the space. It is true that greed can cloud over the eyes of some when they degen into projects that dangle a wide variety of carrots (unsustainably high APR etc). I won't rain on their parade - some of the projects are more legit than other, other projects perhaps want to use the "print money" mechanism to attract liquidity and user growth quickly. All have the same thing in common - the musical chairs will stop one day and someone has to be there to pick up the pieces. Often these are just distraction techniques to give the illusion of growth and progress.
At BOLT, have studied a lot of models, looked at a lot of chains, our conclusion is that the path we are on is the right one. Build a platform where users can be successful, and growth will come. Incentives to use the $BOLT token as utility will then be the next step. You will start to see some of it happening as we release more information of our launches in 2022, starting with our revamped boltplus.tv experience with walletconnect, NFT support etc. We're aiming to do a soft launch as soon as end of Q1, and also do a holistic re-launch of all our web properties (all our websites, public FAQs of information, streamline communication channels, etc). We're also including support for more EVM compatible blockchain protocols across our stack.
Both @JHAS_CEO_BOLT and myself are also working hard to streamline and scale our globally distributed team, compliance efforts, corproate activity. This is an important one - we are not just a random DeFi project, a fork of a high APY farm, or re-launching open sourced projects with our branding on them. What we are doing is to integrate open sourced tech, overlay our IP and systems, make it easier for users anywhere to be onboarded, and to scale it through our global network of partners. You're talking the next evolution of NFT powered experiences, GameFi, SocialFi which are all in progress now. We are holding ourselves to the highest standards possible especially with the completion of our RTO into the main board of LSE.
We're also hiring aggressively for multiple roles as we beef up our team functions acros Product and Operations, Corporate Development and Compliance, Business Development, Engineering, Marketing, Communications, Research & Data. Feel free to drop us an email at enquiry@bolt.global if you would have ideas, suggestions, or if you would like to explore an opportunity to work at BOLT! We're a 40 people team, spread across 10 countries globally. More room to grow!
Thanks very much for your support. 🙏🏻
