Hi Team,
I wanted to thank each one of you for your hard work over this summer. It has been a huge downturn in the cryptomarket, and it was one of the most challenging times for us at Zerion. We stayed strong. We developed, iterated and improved a lot, and I believe it takes a battle to call Zerion battle-tested!
It was only possible due to our commitment to the technology at the core of the cryptocurrency revolution: blockchain. As the market cooled down, we had the passion to continue building out bits of the ecosystem of a better financial future.
Over this summer, each one of you was working on components of the larger Zerion machine. I wanted to give you a sense of what has been accomplished in a fairly short amount of time:
Tokenization Platform
- Huge dashboard refactoring 🛠
- New KYC flow (Sum&Sub iFrame integration)
- Whitelisting service

- Launched Immediate ICO, which collected more than $4M

Other
This summer we also released a new zerion.io website with a complete redesign and all products. We added Korean, Russian and Chinese localizations as well.
We added two great people on our team: Yuliya joined for full-time after her internship, and Connor strengthened our Business Development side!
Plus, for the first time in our existence, we filed our taxes for Zerion LLC in the US :)
These are just the highlights! More to come this Fall.
Best,
Evgeny
