While the current market looks grim, Populstay and blockchain are here to stay!
Blockchain "rocketed" onto the world stage in 2017, words like "token sale" and "blockchain" became popular and trendy. Blockchain continues to grow in popularity as people across multiple industries find new applications for it.
However, two problems evolved. Firstly, truly good projects were overrun by scammers, saturating the market with fake projects. Secondly, to many people blockchain remains a nifty technology without a practical application. In the face of vanishing interest ICOs have delivered diminishing returns, in site of their promising technologies.
Nevertheless, many great companies appear in crises.
For example, Nokia was founded in 1865???the year of European financial crisis.
The Internet bubbled in 1998, and Alibaba Group was founded in 1999, when Asia witnessed the economic crisis.
Airbnb, Uber were all established during the global financial crisis of 2008.
PopulStay, which is a decentralized home-sharing platform, was created exactly one year ago, in winter, 2018. Therefore, Populstay witnessed the disappointing condition of the 2018 market but its determination to grow big was not shaken! Let us trace the journey of Populstay as a company from the very beginning up to this moment ↓
