CEO FORTnightly Message - 19/10/18

There is a lot of work being done in the background here at GSX Group.

We have been hiring to strengthen our already incredible team, focussing on the GBX business development network in London and Singapore. Our work on the Global Securities Protocol (GSP) is also making significant progress.

We continue to travel extensively meeting with our Sponsors, potential Sponsors, industry experts and project leaders. Many commentators on the global conference network note the current bearish sentiment that the sector is experiencing and although there are many questions and uncertainties in the short term, this is counterbalanced by a feeling that in the long run there is clear vision and optimism. Bridging that ‘canyon of doubt’, navigating the obstacles in our way requires energy, talent, creative thinking and some risk-taking too! What we also believe is that the global exchange scene 2 years from now will be very different to what we see today.

The Gibraltar Blockchain Exchange (GBX) has continued to grow and develop. It is a testament to the robust platforms we have established, here is what has been happening since last we connected:


1 - GBX Rewards Programme Goes Live

Our GBX rewards programme is now live, each GBX account holder will find their unique referral link and code in their account profile page. Sharing this code online helps you gain rewards. For every person who completes registration for a GBX account using that link, both the referrer and the referral will receive rewards! It is our way of giving back to our community and saying thanks for your support. You can read more about the rewards programme here:

2 - BLZ Live on the GBX-DAX

8 - Upcoming events

We often get asked the question “what is Gibraltar doing to raise its global profile and compete with other jurisdictions?” Quite a lot as it happens. For example, we have an exciting set of events ahead of us, including next week, 4 days in London dedicated to Gibraltar.  The week commences with the Gibraltar Financial Services Lunch being hosted by the Government of Gibraltar, followed by a series of more private and public sector get-togethers involving both the UK and Gibraltar financial services communities, and also GibFin London on the 24th October. The GBX are the headline sponsors of the GibFin conference, hosted in the QEII Centre, Westminster. If you would like to attend, you can find more information about the event here (https://www.gibfinlondon.com/). We will finish the week with a London based Sponsor Firm Summit, where we will discuss and debate how we can continue to improve our token deal flow and community


Thereafter I shall be joining the GBX team in Asia to attend the Hong Kong FinTech Week, the world's first cross-border fintech event. If you would like to arrange to meet up with someone from the team you can e-mail info@gbx.gi

Finally, at the GSX Group, we strive to constantly push the boundaries, getting involved with debates on increasing standards for the blockchain industry, meeting the community and pioneering toward a new era in blockchain powered finance and I will always keep you updated on these areas that myself and the team are working diligently towards. So that is the round up for this FORTnightly message, as always thank you for your continued support.


Keep on ROCKing everyone!

Btw, GBX was expected to be the trading platform for security assets only, right? And it seems like there have been already listed a number of utility tokens. (I could be wrong, I haven't deeply discovered each project, just glanced). I do not consider this is bad just trying to figure out changes I could miss )

it doesn't seem like that, GBX is a general exchanger, like binance or bittrex, but indeed the ones traded there are bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, etc, rock and bch, maybe they will add to the list at the end of the year

I did one token sale on GBX platform. Very smooth and easy to use. After the launch of the exchange, however, they didn't get attention from the community which is why the volume is very low right now, even lesser than on DEXes. However, I do like the UI/UX experience on exchange, hopefully they can add more pairs and do some aggressive marketing later when ROCK token is going to be used on exchange for fees.

Glad to have your support and thank you for the feedback! The GBX team does have a marketing strategy in place which will bring more attention to the exchange. There are more exciting updates to come.

You must hire a good marketing company at last! Look at other new succesfull exchanges. Their tokens just growing day by day and RKT only going down

Hi there. GBX actually does have a marketing team in place and they have implemented a solid strategy for bringing awareness to the company, the platform, and the token. The price of the token isn't only related to marketing, the cryptocurrency market is down every where.

I'm pretty sure they have marketing strategy in place, they raised a lot of money. The thing is that it is better to start market exchange when everything is ready to go, tested, trusted by early supporters in my opinion.

This can be applied only to a handful of exchanges because this is a long-term process and is significantly dependent on external conditions such as market sentiment. And GBX has all chances to win this game in future.

Now the market has become more stable and some altcoins have started to grow, but the price of ROCK token continues to fall. It upsets me.

Speculations about the profit and price. The RKT is a utility token and doesn`t guarantee any profit.

Really GBX differs from the other exchanges and has more complicated structure and concept. I believe the lack of attention is caused by current market sentiment and its development stage (community understands that GBX success will come with the further progress and this takes time to deliver)

The GBX is truly untypical platform, first of all, because it allows to participate in the verified token sales. Secondly, there is an option to create corporate account on the GBX DAX and finally the listing of tokenized securities in the pipeline. The team believes that these factors will make GBX more unique and attract more crypto enthusiasts.

What?? You raised 27 mln usd! Investors paid you money! And you have obligations to them!! Why tokens circulating increasing? You selling tokens after ICO?
