Pundi X Roadmap Q4 2020 — Q2 2021
Dear Pundians,
We’re now officially in the second half of 2020. COVID-19 has brought significant impacts on the economies and we are seeing how it has changed businesses both online and offline. Pundi X is determined to provide support as much as we can, by educating more people about the advantages of moving transactions to the blockchain and using digital currencies to facilitate contactless transactions. Also, we are adjusting how we operate while tackling the challenges brought by the pandemic.
