Graft is setup to list on Stocks.exchange within the next couple of weeks. Not a great exchange, but a step up from TradeOgre. Around 6 months until Graft is listed on Binance.
I thought You arrange something more reputable than Stocks.Exchange . I think that this project deserve to be more visible and adopted. Binance in six months? SIX months in crypto is like decade in real world...
At this stage, it's quite clear that the team is investing all their time/ and funding into the development of the core project( Implementing Real-time Authorizations/ Supernodes), not into marketing/ advertising( like so many others). They also don't want to go forking out big $ to prematurely list on a top-tier exchange when the core development side is not handled yet.
Stocks.Exchange isn't a great listing, it's more of a short term fix. However, there is a negligible listing cost and it's a step up from TradeOgre( Total Exchange volume is larger, spreads are tighter). It's also better than just having Graft listed on single( questionable) exchange.
Graft is an innovative project and is very much under the radar at the moment. This is largely because has been zero hype from the team- They are all about development and creating a real product/ solution. They also struggle to articulate what they are actually trying to implement.
Graft is essentially creating new payment gateway at POS( point of sale), that has the option to, but does not require the use of a traditional CC gateway/ processor, or the use of a debit/ credit card( It can all be done in real time via APPs). It's also quite different from other Cryptonote/ Cryptonight forks, or Payment solutions( Tenx/ litepay etc). Graft is implementing a decoupled PoW/ PoS, with supernodes that profit from real-time authorization( transactions at POS)- This is a large/ challenging development task. They are integrating their own decentralized payment network/ ecosystem into a traditional POS terminal app for the likes of Verifone & Incognito merchant terminals. In doing so they have the option to bypass the traditional CC gateway and use their own API(DAPI) to process transactions via(RTA) through the Graft network/ ecosystem. This means they won't get knocked back by card issuers like other competitors Litepay/ Tenx etc( in fact they were never really true competitors) , because, unlike them, Graft is not relying on credit card/debit cards or a traditional gateway/ processors to facilitate transactions.
Has anyone read the book "Blue Ocean Strategy" ? Graft is creating a Blue ocean.
