KIN will be the MOST USED CRYPTO IN THE WORLD by the end of 2018! $$$$$$$$$$$$$$

[Scuds31091]

Already in the middle of the year 2018 and there is no popularity of KIN in the crypto community, how then will it become the most used by the end of the year. Well, I like the fact that you aim high but doubt if it will because there are more better and more stable social network than it.

Kin is set to launch within the Kik app as soon as the end of June (this month). It will also be releasing it's standalone app, Kinit, to the public in July.

With just the Kik integration alone, it's possible it will have more transactions a day than any other coin in the crypto space soon after integration. However, this is even more likely to happen before the end of the year as it's further integrated and especially once Kinit is generating transactions as well.

The "crypto community" is extremely small when compared to the mass consumers of digital apps in the world. KIN isn't trying to convince current crypto users to get on board, nor does it need to. KIN is focusing on the billions of consumers that use apps daily that will be using crypto for the first time. Kik alone has 300,000,000 users with about 15,000,000 active monthly. All it needs to do is get it's current user base earning and spending in KIN and it will become the most used crypto in the world.

Live Q&A #6 with Ted Livingston, Kik Founder and CEO

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zuk2LPpHDRQ

The biggest news from the most recent AMA yesterday was that Kin is planning to peg the KIN token to a specific USD value within the Kinit App.

Just so you have some background. Currently beta users can earn Kin daily or every other day by completing earn opportunities within the Kinit App. They can take this Kin and purchase gift cards.

Thus, it sounds like Kin will choose a specific conversion rate for the Public Beta launch of their Kinit App in mid July. Kin could set the rate of a $10 gift card to cost 500 Kin. By doing so, they're setting the value of Kin to be $0.01. The company will be subsidizing any costs from this rate they set.

It's going to be really interesting to see what happens to the exchange market value of Kin once it has a comparable price within the app. If you can eventually spend your Kin at a $0.01 rate, then all the current Kin on the exchanges trading at $0.000150 will get eaten up very quickly. Ideally the price will shift towards matching the price set within the app.

What is Kin? | A New Business Model for Digital Services

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INI-SXXOV_0&t=5s

This was one of the first "coin reviews" I've seen where someone has actually done the research in order to know what they're talking about. This person talks about his own ideas of the positives and negatives of KIN. Although I may not agree with every point, you can tell he's done his research, and can backup why he feels how he does.

Kin and Kik — Working Together

https://medium.com/kinfoundation/kin-and-kik-working-together-ac89bc55b82b

This was posted yesterday. It's a nice update on where the Kik integration of Kin stands right now.

"Overall, we had a great trip that allowed Kik and Kin to finally work together in the same location and time zone. We’re getting closer to releasing a new feature that will use Kin to improve the user experience on Kik, and this will pave the way for other digital services to do the same. We all put in some long hours to ensure we had a successful trip, and we’re looking forward to showing you the final product soon."

Two part series by Alex Frenkel the VP of Product at Kin explaining how the digital world works today, what issues are at hand, and how Kin can revolutionize it.

Currently there are roughly 6 million active crypto users in the space. KIN is about to be integrated into the well known chat app Kik very soon. Kik has over 300 million users of which 15 million are active daily. Once KIN is integrated into the app, it will become the most used cryptocurrency in the world.

Kin isn't just tied to the Kik app. It will will eventually be integrated into 1000's of digital apps increasing the amount of people using KIN to the 100's of millions...

Imagine the demand for a coin that's being used by 100's of millions when currently Bitcoin, the most valuable coin right now, only has 25 million total wallets (keeping in mind many of these are abandoned or the fact that people have multiple accounts).


Background

Kin was created by the billion dollar chat app company called Kik. It has a large team working on the project and also has a long list of business connections to help make everything possible.

One major connection is Fred Wilson who owns Union Square Ventures. USV was an early investor with Kik, but also with other large notable companies like Coinbase, SoundCloud, Stripe, and Twitter. Fred Wilson is on the board of Kik, and also on the board of Coinbase...

Tencent also invested $50,000,000 into Kik recently. Tencent owns WeChat if you aren't familiar and is one of the largest tech companies on the planet.

Kik was the first chat app to get mainstream adoption getting over 1,000,000 users in 15 days. At the time it was the fastest growing app ever. Kik was also the first platform to introduce chat bots. Kik has always been at the forefront of advancing technology and now has a goal to become the most used crypto currency in the world. Based on their track record, they definitely have a good shot.

Kik has been planning on entering the crypto space for quite some time. A couple years ago they ran a test with a non-crypto in app token called Kik Points. Here is a quote from their whitepaper on that topic, "The Kik Points experiment was successful, with an average volume of 300,000 transactions per day for its lifetime from 2014 through 2016, reaching 2.6 million transactions per day at the peak. On average, the monthly number of transactions was nearly three times that of the Bitcoin network.".

If Kik Points was a crypto, it would have been the most used crypto in the world. Since then, Kik has removed Kik Points and launched Kin. Kin is a crypto currency and will be implemented into the Kik app just like Kik points was. Thus, when the Kik integration happens (likely before 2019) Kin will become the most used crypto in the world. This is pretty amazing as unlike Kik Points, Kin is not just for the Kik app. Kin will be implemented into many different apps within the Kin ecosystem. So with the Kik integration alone it will become the most used crytpo in the world, then add together all the Kin usage within all of these other apps down the road, even apps larger than Kik, the usage will be unlike any coin around right now. This includes Bitcoin and Ethereum.

I don't think so, but we can see together

Since a few months ago, I have been very confident with the potential of this coin, although many who do not know KIN and doubt its development, I believe KIN will be the right investment in the future, this is the right time to buy KIN because the price is still very cheap.

[_crypto_moon_]

I have not found anything promising in this token, but even if you believe your word and look at the issue of this token, you can conclude that its price will never be large. So I pass.

Hey!

So Kin has integrated Kik for 1,000 beta android users

https://venturebeat.com/2018/06/27/kik-tests-its-kin-cryptocurrency-with-1000-random-users/

The Kin blockchain can handle 1.2 million transactions per day (and growing)

https://medium.com/inside-kin/scaling-kin-blockchain-status-update-ca4f323d3e99

The Kin Foundation has an internal deadline of the week of July 16th to release the public beta for the Kinit standalone app for both Android and iOS

https://medium.com/inside-kin/the-kinit-app-whats-next-aaf2dd6b8bce

The Kin Foundation announced a partnership with IMVU (users who use IMVU spend upwards of 1 hour per day on the website)

https://www.ccn.com/kik-partners-imvu-the-worlds-largest-avatar-based-social-network/



The subreddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/kinfoundation only has 10k users.


Right now no one has heard of Kin. Soon, Kin might be the most talked about thing of all time.



  But 10 Trillion Tokens?

3 Trillion Tokens goes to Kik Messenger app for being the first app to integrate Kin (and to provide an insane amount of value to its users and employees)
 
6 Trillion Tokens are set aside for the Kin Rewards Engine (the KRE). The Kin rewards Engine will do for App Developers what Bitcoin Mining has done for Bitcoin Miners. Much like Bitcoin mining rewards (incentivizes) miners for their contribution to the security of the network, The KRE will incentivize getting people to use Kin. The more people use kin in your app, the larger proportion of the daily payout you receive as a developer.  If you can just speculate for one moment on what a daily payout for developers who integrate kin might look like (if each kin is worth $.01 USD, developers would be competing for a piece of a daily $1million USD payout), then you can imagine why kin will be the most valuable cryptocurrency in the world.

Just under 1 trillion tokens are out there trading right now. Kin is in stealth mode, on no major exchanges, and has a plan to take down the advertising monopolies of facebook and google. (Except hitbtc and fatbtc if you can consider those major exchanges)

alas, more regrettable words have never been typed. crypto moon will regret the day he came across kin but dismissed it simply because of its large supply.

Already in the middle of the year 2018 and there is no popularity of KIN in the crypto community, how then will it become the most used by the end of the year. Well, I like the fact that you aim high but doubt if it will because there are more better and more stable social network than it.

The crypto community is a vicious toxic cesspool of GAINZ and LAMBROs so I'm honestly glad the KinFoundation has managed to stay away from being associated with that. Kin won't be just used by the crypto community, it will be used by the average person. That's why Kin is so awesome. It's not trying to get a normie to buy a coffee with a .0003 (or .0025 or .0035 or .00034 or which one is even more) bitcoin. It's providing something people want (worthless digital goods, like chat themes, stickers, access to conversations with celebrities, counterstrike knife skins) and saying the only way you can have this is by having KIN. Also, we are going to provide you with a plethora of easy and fun ways to earn KIN, across a whole digital ecosystem of games and survey apps. potentially members from every sector in the world will be trying to integrate to have a piece of the daily KRE payout.

Executing on this idea will be the strategy of every major tech company in the world for the next 10 years. Kik Messenger App just happens to be beating everyone to the punch. Big time.

Kin introduces the blockchain technology and transparency in social communication with already well established app. They will integrate Kik, which is already used by millions of people to communicate, therefore they blockchain platform will instantly be used by many people. I can see a great potential in it, with already integrated wallet in a popular messaging app.

What happened with KIN in yobit? Yobit doesn't update their wallet

[D3m1r4wanti]

I am very disappointed with this altcoin, especially in trading. a few days ago I bought KIN at one of the exchangers at a price of around 8 sat. and now the price is only 1 sat and there is no trading volume, I'm sure KIN will die soon and become a worthless coin.

If there will be liked a big burning of some KIN tokens then probably price of it will increase somehow. I know KIN and I still have doubt about it because of too much supply it will be hard for it to increase.

This is GAME OVER for the most used crypto in the world.
