Beginning July 22, 2018, beta testers started receiving emails to test Crypterium's mobile top up service. This has seen about 200 testers go through the KYC1 verification process after which they have had the opportunity to test the top up service. There has been quite a number of positive feedbacks from the testers who have shown so much excitement in the outcome of the tests. We have captured a few of the feedbacks given on the Telegram group by some of the testers below: A techie tester, Aires Mendes, went an extra mile to do a video of the top up process. This gives us a good feel of how swift the top-up process is.  As expected of any beta test, there were a number of negative feedback as well. These were mainly around KYC1 application approvals.  We understand that the team have started working on making the KYC1 process smoother (b ased on the feedback from the community) .

A GUIDE ON HOW TO TRANSFER YOUR CRPTs TO YOUR CRYPTERIUM WALLET

Image
After the Crypterium ICO which saw about 67,000 buyers of the CRPT tokens, the Crypterium team requested buyers to withdraw their CRPT tokens from its website. Majority users moved their tokens to a MEW (MyEtherWallet) address and have since not moved it out.

Also, all database information are backed up on regularly basis, thereby making it difficult to loose vital information as a result of system crash or malfunction. Users are also required to enter secret pins (like password) in order for them to gain access into the app. Recently, the team shared the news of an upcoming update which will further reinforce the security of the app. Tha...

CRYPTERIUM... MAKING LIFE BEAUTIFUL

Image
Crypterium is the world's first cryptobank to make it possible for everyday people to carryout everyday transactions using cryptocurrencies (e.g bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin etc). This is possible through a finely developed NFC payment mobile app, which hosts user's wallets from which the equivalent crypto is deducted for fiat transactions that are carried out in the real world. As a result, a user will be able to walk up to a merchant shop and pay for purchased items, using his cryptocurrency and the merchant will receive payment in fiat currency. Lady paying for a drink with Crypterium (Image extracted from Crypterium material) Crypterium will make it possible to do the following with our cryptocurrencies : 1. Shop around the world 2.

We would like to thank our readers for their feedback and suggestions. Based on feedback gotten, we would start quantifying our trade analysis in terms of dollars as well. In that light, we will reference the closing price of bitcoin and CRPT when converting the value of CRPT from bitcoin to dollars. e.g assuming the closing price of bitcoin in a given day is $8000, then the trade volume of 8000 CRPTS in dollars at a CRPT closing price of 0.0001 would be $8000*8000 CRPTs * 0.0001. This would be equal to $6400. That said, CRPT experienced an increased volume of trade to the tune of 371,900 CRPTs valued at $352, 620.48. The day opened high at 0.00010756 BTC ($0.96) and closed at 0.00010600  BTC ($0.95), thus closing as a bearish market. The highest trade was placed at 0.00010965 BTC ($0.98) and lowest trade at 0.00010113 BTC ($0.90). There was a total of -0.00000156 pip movement.

Crypterium's 1000 Transactions Per Second Speed - Our Opinion

In the recent AMA with the CCO, Vladimir Gorbunov, it was revealed that Crypterium has built an infrastructure which is currently capable of processing up to 1000 transactions per second...and promise to have that increased in the nearest future. We will do a comparism of the transaction speed of Crypterium with other payment technologies and crypto payment methods, in an attempt to understand the importance of this piece of information from Vladimir. BITCOIN - Due to the limitation of the bitcoin block to 1Mb, the average number of transactions that can be processed per second is just 7. This is too slow to be deployed as a global payment solution on its own, as it would mean people will need to take queues just to have their transcations processed. ETHEREUM - is a little faster at 20 transactions per second. However, this in itself, just like Bitcoin is not an efficient payment solution. PAYPAL - This is about 10 times the speed of ethereum at 193 transactions per second. Al...

Welcome to today's series of CMA. The CRPT market today was characterized with low volume of 180,100 CRPTs (Valued at $172,132.35 - @ $8,857/Bitcoin) exchanged in 642 transactions. CRPT Sellers had a higher percentage of trades accounting for 54.89% of the market share in 331 transactions. This is a slight improvement over the previous day share of 55%. The day opened at 0.00010786 and closed at 0.00010790, resulting in a slightly bullish market with just + 0.00000004 pips movement. April 22 - Crypterium Market Summary Considering that the trade volume is low (at 180,100 CRPTs), it may be a bit difficult to conclude on trader's behaviour today. However, the facts as it is in today's trade is that there is a reduction in trader's appetite to sell cheap. This is evidence in the graph which places cheap selling traders at 18% (as against 38% recorded yesterday, April 21st). There is no apparent reason why this may be the case, as no major news was released. ...

Welcome to the pioneering series of Crypterium Market Intelligence (CMI). CMI aims to analyze the trade events that occur within any given day, using data from Crypterium's official exchanges (currently, just Hitbtc) in order to bring to knowledge useful information that is ordinarily hidden from the average trader and investors. It is also important to state that our analysis will focus only on CRPTBTC, since it controls over 80% of the CRPT market. To achieve our aim, we will first bring out the facts : in terms of trade volumes, price low and high etc and then plot out the distribution of the trades made within a given day. Based on this, we will try to find a correlation between major news events and trader's behaviour. We will then attempt to draw inference and conclusions which could be useful in making future trade decisions and market evaluation. Since our aim is to bring understanding of the market, even to the novice, we shall try as much as possible to ke...
