The market we operate in & marketing efforts

  • In talks with the major voices in crypto
  • Several collaborations.
  • Card campaign with Schibsted & more to come.

The market situation & crypto cycle

  • Bitcoin Halving. As demand continues to increase, supply is halved. Historically, this event marks a fundamental shift, leading to a bull market.
  • Spot Bitcoin ETFs. Institutional giants (i.e. BlackRock, Fidelity) have begun acquiring BTC at a massive pace, thus leading to a shortage.
  • Worldwide users of crypto grew by 34 % in 2023, totaling 580 million.
  • The newest buzzword: RWA

Since 2021, we have operated in a bear market. Now, finally, the market is full steam ahead.
