Hi, if you don't mind to attend to my question about expansion strategy on the previous page, it'll be really helpful.
Hey we did respond on the previous page!
To respond again (no worries) - we currently have offices in Melbourne & Sydney Australia, and you can transact with Liven and earn LVN in those cities, we've got big expansion plans though and you will see all this in our whitepaper and some blog posts.
Asia is definitely on the roadmap and before we go there we will build our network in more Western cities - at the moment our roadmap has UK expansion for early 2019 with the USA and Asia following later on - we will likely make a refreshed announcement about our expansion plans during the ICO in Feb or March.
Sorry, can't find it, even after I checked back again, so maybe the post were failed to be posted. No problem, though.
If you don't mind, not that I insist you to expand on Asia as soon as possible, Im just trying to understand the thinking behind the reason, wasn't asia (and middle east) regions are currently in rapid expansion with crypto? Thailand, for example, or India. And although Indonesia can't really be put on the same rapid growth as Thailand, or Singapore, but wouldn't the geographical location of them being exactly next to you (and after them, the other asia markets) should be considered as an easier way than UK?
It's true that the expansion of crypto is going well in Asia and we definitely want to expand there, however it's more important to prioritise areas that are better for both crypto AND our business. Although we are forming connections and establishing partnerships in Asia, we have a stronger network in Western markets and currently, regulation is much more favourable there.
Geographical location is a good point - Asia is definitely much closer than the UK though once again, we have networks there and it will (likely) be easier and more fruitful for us to launch there first.
We will expand where it makes most sense for our people and our business, and once we have nailed the expansion process we can go to Asian regions much easier. Regardless of all this though, nothing is set in stone. Things can change really quickly and we have a team that will adapt to the best opportunities in front of us - so who knows where you'll be seeing us in the next.
