Nice post great work brother
Posted using Partiko Android
Thank you :)
Hi!, Nice post. Good job. I have a question, I see that you can unlock your wallet for staking puposes, it means that you can generate some additional tokens just having some bitF cryptos in your wallet??. This is the second token besides Ontology, where you can do that!.
Yes, that is correct. Majority of Proof of Stake coins can do this. There is a lot more than 2 coins that can do this.
Yeah this is the trending for cryptos, I just have heard about it, last friday. I have to make a new research. Thanks for sharing this information!.
