WE ARE BLOCKCHAIN
BUSINESS OVERVIEW & GROWTH PLAN
2018/2019
Market – Sentiment and ICO Space
Market sentiment has remained bearish for most of 2018 and, with BTC breaking down again, has re-enforced this. Additionally, the ICO market got squeezed hard with many exit scams and cash-grabs leaving investors out-of-pocket and many other ICO’s running out of money and simply disappearing.
Token and coin prices have taken a beating and many of the top projects are down as much as 95%.
Our game plan with FMT has always been long-term. FMT leadership will continue to steer the project and adapt to market conditions. FMT is taking more of a ‘tech and software’ approach to the crypto market to develop infrastructure and expand the FMT ecosystem and token use-case. We see this as a sustainable approach which will bring value to the market and help cryptocurrency adoption.
Events and Exposure
The FMT team has spent a considerable amount of time on the road to promote the project and build relationships for collaborations (current and future).
We have exhibited at numerous major blockchain and crypto events and sponsored several community events also…
Singapore NEM
Sydney Bitcoin and Blockchain Fair
Brisbane BlockConscious
Melbourne CA Meetup
Shenzhen World Blockchain Conference
Dubai Gitex Future Stars
Multiple Gold coast Bitcoin Meetups
Multiple Brisbane Meetups
Exchanges
FMT have signed a couple NDA’s regarding listing on exchanges. We also continue to receive listing offers from many exchanges. We are being cautious not to commit resources and time to exchanges that have low volume as it does not serve the interest of token traders and investors.
Because FMT is a NEM mosaic (as opposed to an ERC20 token), many exchanges require additional work/time/cost to add mosaics.
FMT are exploring options to secure listing and will continue to do so. We feel it is an important part of the project and it is equally important to be done inline with our overall strategy to protect the project, investors and future of FMT. This is a continuous and ongoing process.
