When will coin reach exchanges?
This is from their FAQ section on webpage.
When will Universa be listed on exchanges?We do not have any comments with regard to exchanges.I am interested about this coin too.
Are they trying to compete with ETH,EOS,ADA,NEO and others that are focusing Dapps and Smart Contracts ?
Yes I think so, but probably more corporate and business oriented than for example ETH, so maybe more of a competitor to NEO (also partly because they seem focused on Asia). But they also claim very high transaction speed/tps and are very focused on obtaining banking partnerships, so maybe also competing with ripple, so like a ripple with smart contracts maybe? Idk, time will tell.
Think it's mostly along the lines of your last point yeah, smart contracts and very high transaction speed, while in his communication Alexander focuses on what meetings he had with what businesses. Also, their presence is strong in Russia it seems, which may be an interesting advantage also.
