      Following its successful ICO campaign Karma's KRM token swiftly achieved an impressive daily trading volume of over 10 million USD. Built on top of BitShare's Graphene technology-based blockchain, KRM tokens allow private parties from all over the world to lend to entrepreneurs directly bypassing banks and other similar intermediaries.

      The Karma token sale began on November 27th with a hard cap of $10M USD and a total of 1.275 billion KRM tokens available to backers. The OpenLedger-supported project met its fundraising goals with ease by the 16th of December, 2017. The Karma platform is currently being developed for creating socioeconomic relationships between people, irrespective of geographic location, all across the globe. The idea is to allow people from the countries with free capital and low-interest rates to invest into entrepreneurs from the countries where money is much more expensive.

      Ronny Boesing, CEO of OpenLedger stated that;

      "As their PR & Marketing partner during their token sale, and with a functional blockchain presented only a few weeks after the closing of their ICO, one has to say this ICO has delivered as promised and I am personally looking forward to seeing how this project will further evolve in future."

      Karma Co-Founder's George Goognin has a Ph.D. in Economy Math Models and is Vice-chairman of the Russian Parliament Blockchain Experts Chamber and Artem Laptev previously for 10 years managed private p2p-investment funds for SMEs. Mr. Laptev has more than 10 years of experience in portfolio management in the financial industry at Troika Dialog, Sberbank, Ancor Invest and is an International CFA-certified financial analyst.

      KRM Token Withdrawal Instructions

      For OpenLedger users, they can now withdraw and deposit KRM tokens from the OpenLedger DEX to the Karma blockchain. Here are the instructions:
