Speaking on its growing adoption, Ells said, “Electroneum has more real-world adoption than virtually every other cryptocurrency project out there.

“We have achieved many outstanding objectives in the 30 months since our launch after a record-breaking ICO by participants with 120,000. However, we have many years of hard work ahead of us as we aim to be in a well-deserved position among the top 10 cryptocurrencies in terms of utility,” he noted.

Bringing developing countries to crypto community

Electroneum has shown great resolve towards its vision of leaving no region behind. The digital payment platform recently launched ‘AnyTask’ initiative, a global freelance platform powered by Electroneum.

AnyTask in the space of about three months has recorded over 460,000 individuals. Who have registered to the blockchain website as either sellers or buyers.

Notably, Electroneum freelancers have listed over 6,500 tasks in dozens of categories. Such as tech support, video editing, whiteboard animations, website design, among several others.

It’s worth noting that Electroneum remains the only one to have launched its very own smartphone. Mainly designed for people in developing countries. The project is currently the only crypto that has a direct partnership with two mobile network providers.

Most recently, the project shared statistics on its users in Brazil, Turkey, and Nigeria who have topped its app-to-app transfers.
