This is just the beginning of xSigma creating a new future, and it is a crucial step in building the xSigma ecosystem. The xSigma team is working on finalizing the white paper and all the technical details are to be released in the near future. As Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue to gain momentum and hit all-time highs, which currently has a total market cap of $688.3 billion, xSigma management team believes that the top team of xSigma, support from a NASDAQ listed company, and a DeFi protocol which aims to be first in class, are significant characteristics which should elevate and differentiate xSigma from the other DeFi platforms.
The xSigma DeFi protocol has received a significant initial interest, in a short period as it has already gathered over 5,000 members in its communities and has collected thousands of subscriptions on its waitlist. In addition, xSigma has secured commitments from individuals and institutional liquidity providers which is important for a successful launch.
Mr. Jiancong Huang, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ZK International, stated, "as Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies continue to gain momentum, so does xSigma. xSigma continues to build its ecosystem, and it continues to gain a positive response from the blockchain community for its DeFi protocol. Currently, over $9 billion is locked in just five Defi projects according to DeFi Pulse and the aim of xSigma Protocol is to reach the top 5 by the value locked list in 2021. Having former Google, Amazon, 1inch and Ripple engineers on the team, xSigma is well positioned to join the list of the biggest blockchain projects in the future."
