Cashaa October 2018 Wrap-Up!
Dear Cashaa Family,
Since our inception into the Fintech industry we have been consistently working towards solving today’s problems individuals and businesses are having with traditional banking. Each month we compile key highlights from the updates on our products, partnerships, events and perspectives to keep you updated!
Here is the recap of the insights, analysis and discussions in the month of October that we don’t want you to miss!
CAS Token Updates
From 8 October on, we distributed our monthly PoS tokens: 7453 addresses have been allocated a maximum PoS of 222,567,041.03 CAS based on a stake of 318,140,145.98 CAS have received their monthly installment of 31,134,225.25 CAS. Details can be found here.
Product/Partnership Updates
More than 53000 individuals and 40+ businesses registered who are awaiting our coming current account with crypto functionalities! We made an important update in our digital wallet interface, as now users will be able to exchange between different cryptocurrencies directly via the wallet interface i.e. without any need to access exchange platforms, while keeping a track record of the complete transaction history.
This upgrade was done immediately after the successful completion of regulatory formalities in UK and Europe. Further, Kumar, worked closely with the product team to bring up the next generation wallet shortly:

Development team has taken all the inputs from Kumar’s first session and we are happy to notify that the crypto wallet is ready to roll out as per our roadmap. There are a few minor changes required to fit the regulatory and design requirement but due to Diwali (national festival in India), most technology team members are going on Holiday from 1st till 12th of November. Meanwhile the business team is creating the membership plans (CAS Token utility) and fee structure for the current account services for the token utility. We are very excited and are expecting the release soon after the vacation. The expected date to roll out the wallet with planned details is 15th November.
The team is working continuously and incorporated almost all the changes that came from Session 1 and presented on Session 2 with Kumar.
