Featured TrueChain listed on ZBX
Blockchain Island, Malta, has been packed with activities in the last weeks, from the authorization of the first VFA agents and the opening of the Chiliz Blockchain Campus, to the official launch of the ZBX headquarters in Portomaso Tower and the buzzing Malta AI & Blockchain Summit on May 23-24. The fact that VFA agents are now operational in Malta means that the jurisdiction is moving beyond the hype and is now ready to process license applications. The well-timed ZBX office launch held on May 16th was inaugurated by no less than Minister Silvio Schembri, whose remit holds all blockchain and crypto-related matters of the Maltese government.

Following the grand launch, the cryptocurrency exchange ZBX can now announce that Truechain (TRUE) has gone live for trading on their platform.
“TrueChain is the first public blockchain aiming to solve the ‘impossible triangle’ of speed, scalability and decentralization. With 1200-1900 TPS it is a hundred times faster than Euthereum while being more decentralized than EOS. This is the kind of token that we are keen to list on our exchange,” says CEO Dave Pulis.
TrueChain, as described on their website, is committed to be the next generation of blockchain infrastructure. It is the world’s first public chain adopting the fPow+ PBFT hybrid consensus with a strong global open source developer community supporting it. TrueChain provides the underlying public blockchain support with high performance and high security for decentralized application (DApp) and global asset circulation.
Its genesis block was mined on the 30th of March 2019 and has already reached one of the top 100 market caps. On CoinMarketCap, it is currently ranked at 84th place and has more than 150,000 token holders worldwide. By listing at ZBX, TrueChain is allegedly seeking to find a growing user base in Europe for their token.

Featured PAXOS partners with TrueChain to issue $120 million stable coins in PAX
TrueChain is now announcing the launch of a USD PAX-backed token on TrueChain (TRUE) in June this year. PAX is allegedly the world’s first regulated USD stablecoin issued by Paxos Trust with the approval of the New York Department of Financial Services.
The TrueChain-based PAX is a TERC-20 token on TrueChain’s main net and will enable smart contract programming on TRUE, faster transactions on TRUE’s decentralized blockchain infrastructure, an extremely low transfer fee, and full transparency.
The TrueChain based PAX stablecoin will also allow TRUE-based Decentralized Applications (Dapps), TRUE-based on-chain assets and TRUE-based protocols to add fiat pegged currencies on TrueChain’s main net.
Users will be able to deposit via Paxos’ portal or through APIs. Specific guidelines will be released by TrueChain prior to the launch in June 2019.
The entire supply of PAX is backed by USD at FDIC-insured U.S. banks. PAX is under monthly audits by a nationally-ranked top auditing firm and is always redeemable one-to-one with USD.
“TrueChain is committed to be the next generation of blockchain infrastructure. It is the world’s first public chain that implemented fPow+ PBFT hybrid consensus and has a strong global open source developer community supporting it. TrueChain provides the underlying public blockchain infrastructure with high performance, security for decentralized application (DApp) and global asset transaction,” says Eric Zhang, TrueChain’s CEO.
TrueChain is tradeable on ZBX, a recently launched exchange based in Malta.

Featured McAfee shining bright in dark times for crypto
The recent hacking attack on Binance, which saw hackers stealing no less than 40 million USD through internal and external hacking attacks have brought crypto all-stars to show their best sides.
In a humble twitter conversation with CZ of Binance, the antivirus legend John McAfee exposed his brightest side. With 51 years of experience in fighting malevolent hackers, McAfee’s authority in the field surely do not fall on deaf ears, and CZ accepted his support with gratitude.
McAfee then goes on to poetically outline that hackers are the dark wizards of our age and calls upon his old competitor Kaspersky in order to summon an army of wizards of the people.
McAfee’s wizardly influence in boosting the morale of a cryptocurrency sector crumbling under attacks from hackers arrived neither early nor late, it arrived just when it was supposed to, as the White Wizard’s proverb reads.

ZBX announces DIO token live for trading
The blockchain-based video-game Decimated (DIO) was just announced live for trading on ZBX, an exchange operating out of a regulated environment in Malta.
Having made a name as being an exchange who seeks to bridge the gap between institutional finance and the crypto sphere, ZBX highlighted its adherence to tradition by announcing the Decimated listing with a ceremonial stock-market bell ringing at their Portomaso headquarters in Malta earlier this week.
“Decimated is a project we are very pleased to list. At ZBX, we are adhering to stringent procedures with regards to projects that we decide to list. Decimated provides real value for their users and a token where we can envisage long term interest from dedicated gamers as well as cryptocurrency investors alike,” says Dave Pulis, CEO of ZBX.
Users who sign up on ZBX can now allegedly win up to 250 USD worth of DIO tokens in a specially designated DIO trading competition.
Decimated expands to Asian markets
The blockchain-based post-apocalyptic survival game Decimated is now listing its token on Asian markets through ZBX and ABCC. Decimated has seen its community grow to 90,000 during spring 2019 and currently has a market cap on LAToken of 5.2 million USD.
Computer games based on blockchain-technology is an increasing trend within the gaming industry which mitigates a number of old issues such as piracy, the lack of scarcity of in-game items, as well as off-game utility for the players.
Decimated, a post-apocalyptic multiplayer survival game under production by Fracture Labs, solve all of these issues. By placing all items in the game on the Ethereum-based Halo Platform, items are effectively scarce and protected from piracy attempts while also overcoming the FIAT-to-token conversion needed in most games with in-game purchases. This enables players of Decimated to earn money while playing the game, although they also need to spend resources inside the game to maintain the durability of their items.
The DIO token has been listed on ZBX, ExMarkets, LAToken and is now listing on ABCC. With trading going live on ZBX as announced earlier this week with a ceremonial bell-ringing at the ZBX headquarters, Decimated has now expanded to Asian markets through ZBX and ABCC. Users who sign up on ZBX can now win up to 250 USD worth of DIO in the DIO trading competition.
“Liquidity on the Asian markets is unparalleled. Our listing with a number of major exchanges has gone beyond our expectation. By listing our token with major exchanges, we are certain that early adopters within our gaming community will see the value of their token increase substantially which will give them an advantage to acquire scarce items inside Decimated once the game is launched,” says Stephen Arnold, Founder of Fracture Labs.
DIO is tradeable in USDT, ETH and BTC pairs. The DIO token has just reached a market cap of 5.2 million USD as reported on LAToken. In addition to listings, Decimated is now allegedly in talks with a number of Private Equity firms eager to get involved early in the new field of crypto economy video-games.
Decimated has had a staggering increase in users since announcing their plans to list their token on exchanges. According to Stephen Arnold, the number of users within the Decimated community has reached 90,000 during the spring of 2019.
The token DIO is an ERC20 utility token with a volume of 1 billion DIO tokens pre-minted. This means that the game does not use any proof of work mining consensus. Instead, it uses the proof of stake consensus wherein the validators are rewarded with just the fee attached to each transaction.
The company Fracture Labs is based in Estonia, with team members previously working for renowned game developers such as Bioware, EA, Crytek, and Ubisoft. The company’s animators have also worked on successful films like Bladerunner 2049, Maze Runner, War of the Planet of the Apes, and Pacific Rim. The game is being built in Unreal Engine 4 and scheduled for pre-alpha release in 2020.
