SMALL UPDATE ON EXCHANGES + WEEKLY PROGRESS REPORT:

SMALL UPDATE ON EXCHANGES + WEEKLY PROGRESS REPORT:

- Janice Shi, The Head of Global Development, will be meeting Bittrex CEO at the end of this month. I am including screenshots as a proof. https://i.imgur.com/cG0HshR.png
https://i.imgur.com/vTcds4W.png

- Earlier Binance refused ETP due to low volume. Considering Metaverse was in TOP 10 volume on Coinmarketcap a few days ago, it could be just a matter of time when ETP will be added.

- Janice already talked with Bithumb, but they require at least 100 mil. market cap for new listings to be considered.

- They are in contact with hitBTC.

- They are talking with KuCoin. UPDATE: KuCoin Operation Director Kent Li wrote "Yeah we are considering adding ETP"

- As Janice said in Telegram, she talked with Liqui. They will be listing Metaverse once they have time.

- No updates on Coinone listings yet.


Progress Report (9th Oct. — 13th Oct.)
https://medium.com/@mvs_org/progress-report-9th-oct-13th-oct-a274d2bf2ff4


Also something else that could have a positive impact this month.

- The Chinese congress is on Oct 18th, that could have a big effect on ETP as well especially if regulations are eased.
- ICO refund process finishes on Oct 15th. After that, that "ugly" notice should be off the frontpage of their website.

Now a little bit of speculation...

As you might remember, the first conference of ANTSHARES caused a huge rally from around $2 to $10. Metaverse is at this moment sitting at $2.60 with a tiny market cap of $58,448,120... That's all. Good luck with your trades folks.

SMALL UPDATE:

- iOS version of wallet is under the verification process of Apple Store.

- At this moment, Metaverse is working on the team introduction video and also considering to do AMA with Metaverse CEO, Eric GU.

- As said in telegram, Metaverse is INTENDING to stay low profile with marketing until the next month. I won't be spreading any rumours here, but November could be an interesting month for Metaverse. Follow their Telegram and Slack in order to get more informations on the current development.

UPDATE:



- In October Metaverse got listed on rightbtc.com, Dubai's first global coin to coin trading platform, and also was added on bitsun.net exchange, which lists only the top coins - ETH, ETC, LTC, and BCC, ETP is amongst them!!  I believe more exchanges coming soon. You can also buy there two of the first Metaverse ICO's, Zen Gold (ZGC/ETP) and Zendao Coin (ZDC/ETP). To buy these, you will have to pay with ETP, as there is no BTC option. Metaverse is on a good way to become the new Chinese Ethereum!

- Currently Metaverse is working mainly on digital identity. The Roadmap for the rest of 2017 is getting listed on a new international exchanges, asset reinsurance, asset freezing and in the future will be focusing on BaaS (Blockchain as a Service). The main goals for 2018 are the digital identity function upgrade, pledge asset and digital asset exchange.

- Their wallet "TokenMaster" is available for download on Google Store. They are working on iOS version which will be available soon.

UPDATE:

- In June the price of ETP was around $7. They already had 2 successfull ICO's on their platform, Zen Air and Zen Gold, but had to refund the clients due to the recent Chinese ICO ban, which caused a panic sell and the price decreased from $7 to the current $1. The main goal for ETP was to rethink their strategy and find a solution. As said above, recently ETP got list on Bitfinex and partnered with Russians KICKICO, where they could be likely temporarily hosting their ICO's again once it's all setup. Marketing is not their main concern at this moment, the product is, which is a good sign. ViewFin is a huge leading [Suspicious link removed]pany in China and I strongly believe they are doing their best to get everything running again. With Russian partnership this could get even bigger than what it was before. Once everything is sorted out and they will start theirs marketing again, the previous $7 should really be the short term floor.

- Because of the new rules and regulations in China, Metaverse is rethinking its strategy, but the project and the work on the project is continuing without disruption. Metaverse is allowed by the Chinese government to continue their work on the Metaverse platform.

- On 17th of August, Eric Gu WAS INVITED to meet the senior management team of Korean Exchange Coinone. Possibility of ETP being listed in a near future.

A few days ago I found a new gem that I personally believe could be a new $NEO, a new Chinese Ethereum, and is flying super under the radar at this moment with just 24mil. market cap. This gem is called Metaverse. They are partned with KICKICO aiming to launch over 100 China/Russia ICO's next year, therefore creating the main crypto connection between the two biggest economies - China and Russia. They even branding themselves as a substitute for Ethereum in China. The CEO of ETP is one of the severe Co-founders of NEO. Unlike NEO, or ETH, Metaverse also includes digital assets, digital identities, etc. We could say that Metaverse combines Chainlink, NEO and CIVIC together into one business-friendly platform. There is currently 60 staff working on Metaverse.

I am very convinced that is the biggest opportunity out here at this moment and I am surprised that this was flying so under the radar due to the Chinese FUD last month. I made a lot of research and I am going big on this one. Have a read.

Metaverse (ETP)


What is Metaverse saying about themselves:
"Metaverse is a decentralized world that redefines digital identities and smart assets through blockchain technology. Within the peer to peer network reside universally unique and self-sovereign identities, which will primarily power all decentralized applications or smart contracts coming afterward. The project imagines a blockchain in which people, organizations, institutions can transact with each other.
To authenticate the digital asset transactions on the blockchain, Metaverse plans to introduce intermediaries called Oracle. In essence, Metaverse aims to be the Chinese substitute for Ethereum where the intermediaries will be parties whose vested interest lies in the kind of transaction taking place over the public blockchain."

___________________________

My research:

- Metaverse is branding themselves as the Chinese substitute for Ethereum and the company itself is based in Shanghai.

- Current market cap $24,902,036 vs NEO $1,460,715,000, that's a potential of 5900% ROI!

- POW + POS, currently in POW phase, moving to POS in the future.

- Metaverse offers a possibility to freeze your coins either for 6 months, giving you ROI of 8%, or for 1 year, giving your ROI of 20%.

- Current price is $1.10, low circulating supply of 22,600,000 ETP.

- Metaverse has about $200 mil. in funds.

- The founder of Metaverse is Eric Gu, a co-founder of other blockchain projects, including ViewFin™, the market leader in Blockchain technology in China. Eric Gu, CEO of Metaverse, is one of the sever Cofounders of ANS/NEO, who left to build his own better blockchain - ETP. He is also an adviser at Loopring LRC and a few other blockchain projects. He was an ICO investor in Bitshares. What I have also found, Eric was living 13 years in Canada working as a senior programmer for Haier (Haier is a Chinese brand which had the world's largest market share in white good in 2014, with 10.2 per cent retail volume market share).

- Eric has a very strong contacts in the crypto industry, including Vitalik Buterin, who Eric showed around when Vitalik was visiting China.

- Eric Gu is an advisor for an upcoming AION ICO - https://aion.network

- From this interview (link below), Eric Gu himself anticipates the value of the Metaverse token to “go up as many times as NEO”. https://cryptovest.com/news/cryptovest-exclusive-metaverse-token-major-exchange-listing-imminent/

- More informations about Eric Gu, the CEO of Metaverse - https://image.ibb.co/ngrALb/22473524_10210335100922743_1305458323_o.png

- Metaverse is easier and more suitable for Chinese people to use than NEO as it's tailored for a business people and does not require any developing skills, neither knowledge of English language, making it a better choice for business people and therefore will have a wider public use, mainly in Asia. Bear in mind, most of the Chinese people does not speak English and do not have a skills to program in Solidity.

- Also, Metaverse offers a way more than NEO does. As @nucky888 in her Reddit about ETP wrote, "Oracles are just one of the solutions they offer. Others include digital assets, digital identities, etc. They offer holistic blockchain as a service for all kinds of businesses.
The services include a combination of Chainlink, NEO, CIVIC etc. into one business-friendly platform."

- Metaverse is the same size company as NEO, with currently 60 staffs at Viewfin, a leading Blockchain enterprise within China, which Metaverse is working together with(as said above, Eric Gu is Viewfin CEO)

- Here are Metaverse frontman's - https://imgur.com/Uap6Jpm

- Currently Metaverse has 5 developers, not including front-end.

- Team is made of professionals. Chen Hao, Metaverse CTO, won an award on the ArchSummit2017, where at least 200 Buissinesses were participating.

- Metaverse partnered with Moscow's based KICKICO and сrypto investment bank CyberTrust and together are aiming to take over the ICO market in China and Russia. After only six months of launching Metaverse, there are at least 20 companies that want to make Initial Coin Offerings (ICO) on the Metaverse Blockchain platform. Over the next year, the fund partners plan to conduct about 100 ICO projects. These ICOs will likely technically be temporary based in Russia, untill the Chinese government regulates ICO's and solves the current situation in China.

- The reasons this is so under the radar in the Western world is because of a small exchange (just got listed on bitfinex 2 weeks ago) and mainly because of the recent Chinese ICO ban, which caused a panic sell and the price decreased from $7 to the current $1. When that happened, the main goal for ETP was to rethink their strategy and find a solution. As said above, recently ETP partnered with Russians KICKICO, where they could be likely temporarily hosting their ICO's again once it's all setup. Marketing is not their main concern at this moment, the product is, which is a good sign. ViewFin is a huge company and I strongly believe they are doing their best to get everything running again asap. With Russian partnership this could get even bigger than what it was before. This could create a main crypto connection between the two biggest economies - China and Russia. Once everything is sorted out and Metaverse will start theirs marketing again, the previous $7 should really be the floor.

- As said in telegram, Metaverse is INTENDING to stay low profile with marketing until the next month. I won't be spreading any rumours here, but November could be an interesting month for Metaverse. Follow their Telegram in order to get more informations on the current development.

- Because of the new rules and regulations in China, Metaverse is rethinking its strategy, but the project and the work on the project is continuing without disruption. Metaverse is allowed by the Chinese government to continue their work on the Metaverse platform.

- Eric Gu, the CEO of Metaverse is intensively working to get Metaverse listed on a bigger international exchange, which is their main goal for this month of October. On 17th of August, Eric Gu WAS INVITED to meet the senior management team of Korean Exchange Coinone, where ETP could potentially get listed soon. In October 2017, Metaverse got listed on rightbtc.com, Dubai's first global coin to coin trading platform, and also was added on bitsun.net exchange, which lists only the top coins - ETH, ETC, LTC, and BCC, ETP is amongst them! Considering it's a Chinese coin with a huge potential, it could start trading on Binance anytime. When that happens and people will start paying an attention, Metaverse could literally explode as NEO did.

- At this moment, Metaverse is working on the team introduction video and also considering to do AMA with Metaverse CEO, Eric GU.

- Their wallet "TokenMaster" is available for download on Google Store. iOS version of wallet is currently under the verification process of Apple Store.

- The Metaverse ICO was on Sept. 5th, 2016, the price for token was 6000 ETP/bitcoin, around $0.3 per ETP. That would explain the first drop in price as it did hit the exchanges a couple months ago.

- Since ETP got listed on Bitfinex a couple weeks ago, the price bounced from it's ATL and went up about 500% up, before stabilising right at the 61% fibonnaci retracement with a nice support around 0.000260, where it's sitting right now as I write.

Whitepaper:

http://newmetaverse.org/white-paper/Metaverse-digital-identity-white-paper-v1.0-EN.pdf

___________________________


Qtum, Metaverse and NEO are seen as three leading smart contract platforms with large operations in China. Let's compare them.

NEO
Market Cap - $1,844,580,000
Circulating Supply - 50,000,000 NEO
Total Supply - 100,000,000 NEO
Price - $36

QTUM
Market Cap - $704,937,900
Circulating Supply - 59,000,000 QTUM
Total Supply - 100,000,000 QTUM
Price - $11.90

ETP
Market Cap - $24,902,036
Circulating Supply - 22,600,000 ETP
Total Supply - 52,244,767 ETP Max: 100,000,000 ETP
Price - $1.20


All of them has a great technology, but one is relatively new, under the radar and severely undervalued.. ETP!

PS: I am just a small investor and this is not a financial advise, neither I am trying to shill you something. These are just facts about Metaverse! DYOR.

It looks like IFT will get pumped soon on Cryptopia. Superb potential!

I strongly believe IFT could be the next 100x, just look at the team, straight from walls street to crypto, estabilished company with a huge followers base, unique project and great roadmap ahead. Another low cap gem would be EQT.
