Re: [ANN][LINX] Linx | POW(Scrypt) | *** Q1 2018 Updates ***
LINX Community Update - 12th June 2018 from Slack
Hi guys, please find an update from the team and some answers to your recent questions and comments below.
Team Linx
*********************************************
As you know the current Linx price has taken a significant hit in the last week or so. Of course this is unwelcome news for us just as much as it is for anybody holding Linx. As much as we don't want to see unsupported pumps we also don't want to see dumps.
The entire crypto scene is experiencing a big downturn at the moment for various reasons, not least investigations into market manipulation, audits being carried out on several of the big exchanges and a recent hack on a Korean exchange. Anybody that has been involved in the space for a while will have seen this kind of thing before and aren't too worried, but newcomers and some big investors are getting shaken up pretty bad which is understandable.
It's a tough time right now, especially for those that only got involved in the space during the Dec / Jan bull run and it will probably take some time for confidence to return. If you trust in cryptocurrency and it's potential to change the current financial model, like we do, then it's just a matter of sitting tight, waiting for the dust to settle and to continue following and supporting the projects that you believe in. Patience is the key, to quote Warren Buffet "If you are not willing to own a stock for 10 years, dont even think about owning it for 10 minutes." If you're still unsure zoom out on the Bitcoin price chart and remind yourself of how far the crypto scene has come in less than 10 years!
Hybrid / Masternodes
We are having meetings this week to discuss the possibilities of switching to a PoW/PoS hybrid or introducing Masternodes.
These options have been on the table for quite some time. Unlike a lot of other mineable coins our block reward ends quite early, around the year 2030. We scheduled it this way as we felt that with the incoming advances in computing among other things that it was simply unrealistic to expect that any PoW cryptocurrency would still be "mined" in this way in 20 years time let alone 100+.
We are confident that with some of the brightest minds on the planet involved in cryptocurrency other alternatives will present themselves in the not too distant future, so we set the end of the block reward early with a view to adopting one of the existing solutions like PoS or Masternodes in the interim. Network stability is of utmost importance to us and any future decisions made will reflect that.
On the financial side of things... Although we firmly believe the majority of the value in this project will be derived from the facilities that we will be introducing we also fully understand that a basic core level of crypto-based support is required for any crypto project to be successful. We aim to cover all bases with whatever direction we decide to take.
We'll discuss our thoughts on this as well as inviting the community to have their say in this matter also before any decisions are made one way of the other.
Linx is not a token
In other news the SEC Chairman has clarified the SEC position that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin are considered a replacement currency and therefore not regarded as securities, but most "tokens and ICOs are regarded as securities. This is a potentially worrying time for anybody investing in ERC20 tokens, but as you hopefully already know Linx is a mineable coin, NOT a token. We fall in to the same category as Bitcoin and therefore any incoming regulations aimed at ICOs or tokens will not be applicable to Linx.
Worth remembering when the sh*t starts to hit the fan!
***************************************************************
On to some of your recent questions and comments
User:
"Not trying to fud, but I really don't think any news is going to do much to the price in the current market. This isn't against Linx, it's just the market that we are in and I would say the same for any other coin.
Linx:
This is the frustrating truth of it right now. There is pretty much nothing we could say at the moment that would help long term. Even an announcement of a big exchange listing would only cause a temporary pump and dump which would end up leaving us in an even worse situation. Until things start to level out this is going to be case for many crypto projects at the moment. We've just got to sit tight, ride it out and be ready to release the beast when the markets start picking up again.
User:
"The developers aren't concerned about the current price of linx so I'm not either, and they have far more to lose than we do.
Linx:
We are concerned about the price when it causes people to start doubting the project publicly, which is what happens to virtually every crypto project every time the price drops. But we also know we can't stop or control this. It's how the crypto scene will continue to thrive (hype / fud depending on gambling requirements that day) until some of these projects break out of the space and are used by a new audience.
Your last point is hopefully obvious to most but reading some of the comments in the groups you wouldn't think so. Yes we have more to lose than any of you, both financially and in other ways. We have devoted a year of our lives to this project with no financial rewards whatsoever yet, while all holding down our respective careers. The last thing we expect is it to all have been a massive waste of time. If you take nothing else from this Q&A know that whatever happens, we will do what we've set out to do regardless of the market price.
User:
"So are the devs ever gonna reveal themselves?
Linx:
If this project succeeds it will be because we created something of genuine use and managed to reach the right market, not because of a name on a white paper or website. That is only relevant to the people that we will be doing business with as they obviously need to know who we are. It's also important that you know that every member of the Linx team is a well known working professional in their respective fields.
User:
"if there was more transparency there would be some greater support
Linx:
It is your right to blame whatever you want but the truth is that there are 100's of crypto projects out there with full development and team disclosure and most are hurting at the moment. If you had every single detail of who we are and what we are working on it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference right now.
User:
"I don't like at all the selling orders... i am starting to stop trusting our project
Linx:
We don't like them either but if you're only trusting this project, or any other crypto project, based on the price or the order book you aren't "trusting" anything. You're just watching market traders.
User:
"The team has said early on that they had hoped to accumulate linx at a low price to make up for their measly premine, but linx took off too fast. Now linx is at a low price. Wondering if they still have funds to accumulate.
Linx:
That was all talked about before we introduced the dev fee.
User:
"The price of bitcoin has to go down more to be able to consolidate, this will take time, more people will come out of crypto, I think it will worsen a lot and then will improve even much, when most have given up
Linx:
Again, a hard truth that everybody involved in the crypto scene is dealing with right now. If any of this was easy everybody would be doing it!
User:
"5.7 years till the next halving!
Linx:
No that was our fault, a mistake with the halving API displayed on our website which was explained in a slack update and on our Twitter feed. The next halving will occur at block 2000001 which iscurrently scheduled for April 2021.
User:
"Pool registration issues
Linx:
This is something that has been an ongoing issue since we launched the new pool (linxpool.com). The problem lies with Gmail accounts. Google have got some kind of filter preventing automated emails (like registration ones for example) sent from our pool from reaching a Gmail inbox, it doesn't even dump it in the spam folder, it simply rejects it. If you see anybody having issues and we haven't responded to them already please advise them to try registering with any other email account than a Gmail one. We'll keep trying to get to the bottom of it but it's proving difficult to diagnose at the moment and the team is tied up with other areas of development currently.
User:
"Github / Microsoft
Linx:
As mentioned in the last Q&A we have our own private Gitlab repo so don't be surprised if you see little to no action on the Linx Github repo. Since the announcement of Microsoft's involvement with Github you'll notice that a lot of crypto based projects are now migrating to Gitlab. We will be following suit and moving the source at the Linx Github repo over to a public Gitlab repository.
User:
"This coin will be something new, i know that everyone says this to make some huge profit but this coin will connect a very special community, the electro community "
Linx
This has been our underpinning from the start. We know that the market for Linx is potentially huge. We get that maybe a large number of crypto heads just don't see this and they are far more interested in technical advancements and promises of ground breaking blockchain based things to come in the future, but we know this market is real and it's out there right now... waiting for Linx - they just don't know it yet
User:
Thank you but what about news from the beta, the source code, etc.
Last time you told us you will give us news about the beta in the next Q&A
Linx:
we had hoped to bring you news of the beta, but there is nothing more to tell at the moment. Right now we're still in alpha and making changes as we go, once that's out of the way we'll be contacting the beta testers. Source code update was addressed by @mammix2 in the Telegram group.

Hi all.
Just dropping by to say hi, and to reassure you all that we are still here doing our thing. I Know a lot of you have many questions about developments and what's happening. All i can say at this point is that we are working hard in the background to bring something unique to the music industry. Trust me.. When you eventualy see the entire platform up and running you won't be dissapointed.
Some of you have asked about the v2 clients on the network. This is the work we have been doing recently to bring the wallet code base up to date with more security, stability and fixes etc...
Thanks for the support, keep it Linx

User:
Any chance we can get a couple screenshots of the progress you are making on the platform
Linx:
We could release some screen shots but it won't achieve anything right now other than letting you guys know that it's happening, and to be honest if you're doubting that now a screenshot isn't going to convince you anyway. It would be a wasted opportunity to release any screenshots at the moment (market wise) when a better timed release could have a potentially very positive impact on the project.
User:
Hey there. I heared someone saying linx is adding masternodes - is this true? If its true: what will be the collateral?
Linx:
nothing has been decided yet, we are having meetings to discuss the possibilities this week.
User:
something 'bout linx 2.0 and beta? Its been like 5 months since registration of beta. Huge gap of time...
How bout linxpay trademark in UK?
Linx:
The Linxpay trademark in the UK is completely unrelated to us. In fact it was registered right after we started talking about it. Thats the crypto scene for you! Maybe now youll understand a bit more clearly why we refuse to talk about anything before its out there. Linxpay was just an in-house working title we gave the system, it isnt the brand name we have chosen for the system.
User:
Are the options you're considering: 1) staying as a PoW, or 2) hybrid PoW and PoS and masternodes (that was my understanding), or are you even considering transitioning out of PoW all together
Linx:
All of the above and more options are up for discussion.
User:
It is also great to hear the SEC comment on Bitcoin, and that it also applies to Linx, removes most/all regulatory concerns, correct?
for US of course
Linx:
Absolutely! It's great news for us!
User:
So no news for the moment regarding a release of the product with a potential partner.
Linx:
Afraid not, as mentioned before we will only be announcing things that are imminent from now on due to what happened previously.
User:
Do you see choon as a direct competitor, and if so what's your take on it?
Linx:
To be entirely honest with you we don't regard any other crypto projects as direct competitors, especially an ICO.
User:
Since you mentioned you're adding to the "Alpha", i know you can't disclose specifics but does that include the streaming option you previously mentioned, along with maybe other features
Linx:
Yes streaming is fully integrated. It was a mammoth task, the building of which now makes up a large chunk of the new codebase.
User:
Did you applied to blocknet?
Linx:
We can't list on any DEX's until v2.0 of the source is released.
User:
lol that's a good question, and great answer, based on a few discussions in TG, people mentioning on and on about some potential crypto competitors, good to hear you are still very confident about linx, regardless if there has been a delay in launch, and regardless if some of these other companies are launching products, that doesn't worry you very much does it? not considered real competitors?
Linx:
we have our reasons for feeling confident :slightly_smiling_face:
User:
Are you planning to update d3ep to the latest version of linxpay / has there been any updates to the backend since implementation?
Linx:
The d3ep site isn't using linxpay. They are using an entirely custom system that we built for them.
User:
I notice I couldn't donate linx to D3EP but I can with other coins is there a way we can get them a Linx wallet
Linx:
You mean on their website? That's entirely up to them.
User:
Great job on finishing that!
Linx:
thank you! It's was a very in-depth integration, offers on the fly conversion of various different audio formats and a few technical treats that no streaming platform available right now is offering. We think you'll be very impressed with it when you see it :slightly_smiling_face:
User:
First, thanks Linx team for the update! Second, introducing masternodes would be a great thing. How hard/long? would it be to implement them into Linx system since they were considered in August?
Linx:
This is what we will be discussing this week. We only mentioned them back in August as a potential future option. Well, the future is here now

Latest dev Q&A from Slack Channel
Dev: Hi guys, please find some responses to your recent comments, suggestions and questions below.
Team Linx
User: "wish we had more info about the payment system"
Dev: As mentioned before, we spent months building a highly customised version just for Traxsource. As well as being a realtime payment processing engine it also includes a fully detailed customer management and tracking system including accounting and refund processing. It's incredibly simple to install on a retailers server and it is also completely self-hosted. It doesn't rely on, or even talk to, any of our servers. It only requires one live encrypted node (that doesn't even have to be localised) to connect to the Linx blockchain and a server with a valid SSL certificate to operate. It will convert several different FIAT currencies into Linx on the fly based on the current average exchange rate and includes weighting options for the retailer to cover any potential price swings. It's a fully automated system that creates unique user accounts for each customer and tracks their purchase history - it can even offer automatic discounts based on this. It fully integrates with any existing customer database or accounting system that a retailer may already have. It has several levels of security built in including anti-fraud mechanisms. It has a complete user management system whereby the sysadmin can grant varying levels of restricted access to company employees. It truly is a one click solution for any retailer that wants to start accepting Linx on an existing store and a fully functional out of the box customer management system for those wanting to open an online store from scratch. What was once a simple payment processing engine has evolved into a beast of a system unlike anything else out there in this space for sure.
User: "Do you feel the current developers can handle the workload required? Any plans to expand the linx team in the near term?
Dev: It is a lot of work, and the unexpected delays haven't helped at all, but it's important that these early stages of the platform are completed by the core team as they understand the full vision. Yes, we absolutely plan to expand the team once the platform stage is out of the way. We are actively looking for a dedicated lead iOS Dev, (if anybody in the community has suggestions we are all ears). We've already got people waiting to go with regards to the music PR side of things, we've had them from the start.
User: "new exchange suggestions"
Dev: Many thanks to all of those that have put forward their suggestions of potential exchanges. We have been making applications where relevant. Some exchanges have already got back to us with offers of listing fees. Once we hear back from all of them we'll review the situation and decide where to go from there.
User: "Bittrex"
Dev: We have already re-submitted Linx for listing on Bittrex. When we originally submitted it last year, the circulating coin supply was too low. At the time they required at least 10% of the total supply to be out there, this wasn't the case back then, but it is now. Please keep in mind that if Bittrex does decide to list Linx we will not be able to talk about it.
User: "TradeOgre also is free and good coins are being added there"
Dev: Linx has been submitted for listing on TradeOgre.
User: "Dex exchanges"
Dev: We will be submitting to many of these as soon as the updated source code is released. There are BIP's in the updated source that are required for DEX listings.
User: "what about the exchange you said you had?", "why aren't you talking about that?", "they have also made irresponsible announcements such as that they had 1 definite and more pending exchanges"
Dev: We have definite options on the table to pay for listing Linx. We are not going to disclose what exchanges these are until, and if, we decide to actually go with any of these. This was the primary reason why we asked for your opinions.
User: "starting a community fund to cover exchange listing fees"
Dev: Thank you, this is true community spirit and let's us know how much you care about this project being successful! Hopefully this won't be required but it's good to know that some of you have got our backs in this respect
User: "there's something fishy going with big buy orders", "looks like insider trading", "somebody knows something"
Dev: As mentioned above, we have submitted Linx to several exchanges. It's possible that any of these could have decided to get some supply prior to a potential listing, but if that is the case we certainly wouldn't know about it.
User: "linx kiosk and linxtalk.org"
Dev: Neither of these are anything to do with us.
User: "They abandoned the project for the moment. No roadmap,no news about exchanges, no news about the integration with TRAXSOURCE, no real dates when they communicate Only promises. I think they did on puropose to let the price go down"
Dev: Categorically not true. Why would we want to kill the value of our own project and upset the entire community at the same time? Wed lose all round! If anything, it's posts spreading FUD like this that could be having negative effects on the price. Of course it's your right to say whatever you want if that's what you believe, just don't expect anything positive to come of it if you do though.
User: "sometimes I think they are professionals and they know what they do, other times I think they are naive and lacking in experience", "i think they are just to slow for crypto business", "I feel like the project is being run by arrogant musicians rather than business folk with common sense", "honestly I dont think we can expect anything from Linx"
Dev: How are these comments at all helpful or constructive? Insulting our project management, our team's characters' and our abilities has no value and is nothing more than that - throwing insults. Not only is it unhelpful but its irresponsible to the rest of the community. These forums were set up for supporters of the project. Please remember that they are also accessible to any potential exchange or business partner. Anybody that uses these forums to simply slag off the project and the team are undermining all of our efforts and the efforts of the rest of the community to move the project forward, not to mention the negative effects comments like this will have on new members joining.
User: "They have said many times their least concern is the investors"
Dev: Of course we are concerned that people have put their faith and trust in us and we aim to deliver, but if you want us to make a choice between working on making this happen or spending our time posting pointless updates to keep speculators happy the work will win every time.
We all win when we achieve what we've set out to do and then you guys start shouting about how great it is and inviting people to see for themselves. We've taken onboard the valid criticisms about the lack of communication and are actively rectifying that.
User: "You don't have to do things just to tick them..."
Dev: So you want us to lie then? Wrong project.
User: "I doubt linx really want to avoid the crypto community and not understand the importance of community support, but their stance is that they only want hype when the hype is supported by fact. After being burnt by their own mini-hype they are even more conservative in leaking info now."
Dev: 100% correct. It has never been our intention to cut the crypto community out, if that were the case we would have just got on and done our thing without even bothering to tell anybody about it until we were ready to go.
We are all too aware of what "community" can sometimes mean in the crypto space. We know there are many of you that support our vision and are very excited, as are we, about what we are trying to achieve, but sadly this doesn't ring true for lots of others. We're not naive, we know a lot of you are here to make money and then move on to the next thing. That's absolutely fine, but don't get that confused with "community support". What we have tried to do from the start is minimise the hype/fud that "communities" rely on as our goal for this project is much more than to just be another coin sitting on an exchange. We are building something that we hope will revolutionise the way assets change hands in our industry (the music business). This is why we haven't subscribed to the same tactics that some other crypto projects use.
We know we have something here and we believe we can make this happen. We don't need, or want, people shilling the project based on future promises. We brought this project to the crypto community to give those of you that liked the sound of what we are planning the chance to get involved and support it early. We knew we were a way off from realising most of our goals which is why we haven't hyped it yet.
User: "hard questions require harder answers"
Dev: Couldn't agree more, let's do it!
User: "1. Rapidly improve the entire approach to communications and remove all previous lead dev arrogance.
Dev: Communication criticisms have been taken on board, hence the regular Q&A. Lead dev arrogance? What is your reason for this comment? Please expand.
User: "2. List the coin on many many more exchanges immediately (Use dev fee if needed and discuss community raised funds).
Dev: As mentioned above, Linx has been submitted to many exchanges and the community raised funds issue has also been addressed.
User: "3. Hire more team members (actually use the dev fee / no man is an island)."
Dev: So you'd like us to dump our dev fee on the exchanges to hire some more people? What do you suppose that would do to the price and confidence in the project right now? Is this really what you want us to do? We are managing this project responsibly. As explained above, we will expand our team when needed.
User: "4. Set out a new clear product roadmap that is achievable, and stick to it. This is just software, break it down and get it out there.
Dev: We have a roadmap. This isn't just "software". We are talking about opening up the crypto space to an entirely new market here. The marketing and branding of this project is just as, if not more, important as the "software".
User: "5. Stop creating more hidden sub projects / idealistic dreams, this will hurt the overall brand and project long term, if the mic cable gets pulled out again inadvertently.
Dev: You mean like issuing a new roadmap?
User: "6. Think about strategy, security and data privacy, way in advance (GDPR re: linx social platform api usage - should have seen that a mile off).
Dev: Security and privacy have been utmost in our thinking since day one. It's one of the reasons we created Linx in the first place. It's also why we shut down our web wallet. With regards to GDPR we have been fully compliant since the first line of code was typed. What we couldn't account for was how the big social platforms were going to limit, or in some cases entirely lock down their APIs due to GDPR.
We've had to make adjustments based on ongoing changes being made to these platforms, as will any other platform using APIs in this way. As mentioned in the last Q&A this has actually pushed us in another, much bolder direction than we first anticipated. It's just going to take a bit longer to realise it.
User: "7. Release the new 2.0 source code and talk about it with your community."
Dev: The new source is coming and there will be a full update about what's changed when it's released.
User: "8. Do more Q&As."
Dev: Hello
User: "9. Listen to and work with your community (crypto or otherwise) there is much intelligence in mass. Do not ever alienate them again, these are your fans, holders and miners, keeping your network secure. Without them, this will be doomed to the bedroom.
Dev: We are well aware of the importance of the miners that secure the network. We chose a POW algorithm to ensure that Linx could involve the entire crypto scene. We also value the support of the community when it's real support or valid criticism, and not just bitching because their planned pump and dump didn't pay off. As you can see, we will happily address any valid question or criticism. But we're not going to pander to people that are simply insulting us.
User: "10. Keep positive."
Dev: Why would we not be positive? It does wonders for our team moral reading comments from our "supporters" about how useless we are, it really encourages us. Seriously though, If you really mean this and want us to keep positive then you the community can help with this. Insulting us, spreading FUD & general negging is not the way to help with positivity.

Dev: Hi guys, please find some responses to your recent comments, suggestions and questions below.
Team Linx
User: "wish we had more info about the payment system"
Dev: As mentioned before, we spent months building a highly customised version just for Traxsource. As well as being a realtime payment processing engine it also includes a fully detailed customer management and tracking system including accounting and refund processing. It's incredibly simple to install on a retailers server and it is also completely self-hosted. It doesn't rely on, or even talk to, any of our servers. It only requires one live encrypted node (that doesn't even have to be localised) to connect to the Linx blockchain and a server with a valid SSL certificate to operate. It will convert several different FIAT currencies into Linx on the fly based on the current average exchange rate and includes weighting options for the retailer to cover any potential price swings. It's a fully automated system that creates unique user accounts for each customer and tracks their purchase history - it can even offer automatic discounts based on this. It fully integrates with any existing customer database or accounting system that a retailer may already have. It has several levels of security built in including anti-fraud mechanisms. It has a complete user management system whereby the sysadmin can grant varying levels of restricted access to company employees. It truly is a one click solution for any retailer that wants to start accepting Linx on an existing store and a fully functional out of the box customer management system for those wanting to open an online store from scratch.

Re: [ANN][LINX] Linx | POW(Scrypt) | *** Q1 2018 Updates ***
Linx Progress Update in Slack
Hey guys,
Hope you're all well.
To address one of the issues brought up recently we are going to be posting progress updates and answer some of your questions every week or two from now on. Any questions you have can be posted in any of the Linx social groups and we'll pick a few and answer what we can.
Progress Updates :
-- Exchanges: As you are all no doubt aware the space has changed a lot over the past few months and many exchanges now only seem to be interested in ERC20 tokens that have raised significant funds from an ICO - and therefore can afford the substantial listing prices that some centralised exchanges are currently charging. We have some options on the table but we would really like to hear feedback from the community as to which exchanges they would prefer to see us spend the money on.
With that said we are totally prepared to follow the listing fee route with exchanges that still offer this option (fewer and fewer of them around it seems), but as mentioned above we would like to get some feedback from you guys before we proceed as we need to choose wisely. We want to ensure that there is a bigger marketplace for Linx traders but at the same time we don't want to see pump and dumps.
We have already submitted listing applications to several of the big exchanges but we have no further details to report at this time.
We've also begun adding Linx to voting systems on exchanges that offer this feature. Here is the voting link for SouthXchange - https://www.southxchange.com/Home/Vote - the Linx voting address is 16bt2DWHh2hxzgjK31sCifiLuUcvQaUFti if you want to support this listing. If there are any exchanges in particular that you would like us to add please let us know.
Although this is not ideal right now we believe that the future is going to be much brighter as more and more people move towards decentralised exchanges. We most certainly will be adding Linx to as many of these as possible as soon as the updated Linx source is released. The updated source fully supports DEX requirements.
-- Platform: We implemented some exciting tech this week on the streaming side of things. Beta testers will get to try it first and once we're happy that the platform is ready to launch we'll be able to tell you about it. Yes this is secretive but for good reason. We are not trying to sell anything based on this information, we're just keeping you in the loop while building something new and fresh. The last thing we need is somebody trying to copy our ideas before we've had a chance to release them. All things going well we should be in a position to give you a timeframe for the beta release in the next update. If you are wondering why you can't see any activity on our github for anything to do with the platform it's because it's all being done on our own self hosted private gitlab repository. At some point in the future we may open this repo up for community contributions, but for now it's strictly an in-house affair. Just because you can't see what's happening doesn't mean we're not busy beavering away :slightly_smiling_face:
-- Retail Integration: No further news on this at the moment, please see the statement from Traxsource if you are unaware of the current situation.
Please get your questions in for the next update, we're listening :slightly_smiling_face:
Wishing you all a fantastic week and, as always, thank you for being #LinxHeadz!

User: "can you expand even a little on the music streaming platform?"
Linx: Sure, the streaming part is just one aspect of the platform. It will enable artists to self-distribute. It can be used to simply showcase their work (think Soundcloud etc) or it can be used as a direct-to-fan sales platform utilizing instant purchases and downloads. It can also be used as a secure private distribution platform, for example - a producer or band sending out demo's to record labels. The labels will be able to play the track but the public will have no access or even knowledge that the track exists.
User : "Regarding the exchanges and fees: can you elaborate on what options are on the table?"
Linx: We'd rather not for the simple reason that once we start naming exchanges it opens up the doors for potentially negative responses aimed at said exchanges, remember this is all being discussed in a public forum. But more importantly, we don't want to lead the conversation. Right now the addition of new exchanges is more important to you guys than it is to us, so we'd rather hear what you want without trying to steer the debate in one direction or another.
Thanks for the suggestions of exchanges so far, please keep them coming.

With cryptocurrencies like Nano out there, I don't think LinxPay even has a chance. I don't think they can compete with something that is Instant and Fee less. Plus, Nano has a big and active community which is currently growing really fast.
It's totally depend on the mainstream adoption.
Blockchain projects won't success without a real world use and most user friendly project will take the lead one day.
And soon we all find out which will take the lead.
Cheers.
Can LinxPay compete LitePay & BitPay?

Hey guys, hope you are all well!
Just an update on what's happening at Linx HQ for you :slightly_smiling_face:
The dev team have been working tirelessly for the past couple of months and we're very excited to let you know that LinxPay has evolved from a simple payment processing engine into a fully featured customer and order management system.
We are pretty confident that there isn't another crypto payment processing system out there that is as feature rich as LinxPay.
LinxPay will be available in two separate flavours.
- Retail
- Consumer
The Retail version launching this month will be available first and is completely self hosted and configured by the client. It requires no third party connections whatsoever.
The consumer version, which will follow later this year, will be centrally hosted enabling anybody to accept Linx as a payment option on their website or blog. They don't even need a Linx wallet! They just open an account and supply a Linx address (this can be located on an exchange). Unique addresses are assigned to each of your customers, payments are processed and then the funds are forwarded to the account holder's address. The consumer version will also be available as a Wordpress plug-in making it a breeze to install and start accepting LINX!
The Linx Platform
We've been overwhelmed with interest in the beta test program and have received over 700 applications to date. Applicants will be chosen to ensure we have a varied cross section of participants with varied interests and backgrounds. Those selected will be required to put the platform through it's paces, testing every aspect of it and reporting any bugs or issues they may find along the way. We'll also be asking for your comments and suggestions to help us improve on it if required.
Due to the immense amount of extra work that has gone into LinxPay, the start of beta testing for the platform has been put back slightly, we will keep you updated as to when we expect to begin the beta phase.
More exchanges
We will approaching additional exchanges over the coming weeks to align with the official announcement of our first retail partner. Obviously we can't disclose which exchanges these will be, but if and when we can give you more information we most certainly will.
Have a great week all,
Team Linx
