"Kik rolled out its much anticipated standalone app, KinIt just a few months after it posted its product vision on Medium. The product is quite unique in that it has the potential to instantly become the largest consumer-facing cryptocurrency app. Kins vision is quite ambitious but as soon as more than $100 million in the bank form an ICO, and complementary $120.5 million in venture funding previously the company (Kik) was founded theyve got some great firepower. all this allowance is on summit of the 15 million monthly users upon the Kik app. The Vision The vision involves 3 rotate components, the first of which is what the company calls the Kin Ecosystem. The ecosystem includes partners such as Kik, Unity, Blackhawk Network and IMVU. 

The company along with launched a developer program last Wednesday that will pay taking place to 25 developers a sum of approximately $3 million to make and preserve independent kin economies higher than a 6 month period. The program sets happening some ambitious goals for developers behind them needing to onboard 50,000 monthly responsive wallets to receive the full amount of funds offered stirring by the contest. The second portion of the vision is what the company calls the Kin Blockchain.

Kin was originally supposed to be an ERC-20 token, but the network was far too easily congested to retain the kind of addict base Kin is aiming for. The team after that planned on disturbing to Stellar which allowed Kins developers to process transactions faster and cheaper. Finally, because of some concerns higher than Stellars shout from the rooftops capitalization and liquidity the team forked Stellars code base to create Kin which will be manage nearby Ethereum. CCN reported that even if Kin would likely be used for internal transactions, Ethereum would be used for external transactions and to come up with the money for Kin holders in imitation of liquidity. According to Gadi Srebnik, a Kin developer writing in March of 2018, developing the mechanism would assume several months. 

It appears to be unadulterated now and the Kin Blockchain will underlie the KinIt app and the entire app ecosystem. Kinit App intro screen The third part of the vision, which is monster released in beta upon Android today, is the Kin Standalone App. The apps goals were to make a standalone, simple app where users could discover apps throughout the Kin Ecosystem. The app right now is relatively simple. Users are onboarded through a typical onboarding screen that explains the basics of the app and gives users the deed to Start Earning Kin. Users are then asked to enter their phone number and after confirming it are tersely brought to the apps house screen where they are invited to say you will a quiz. http://www.marijuanapassion.com/forum/showthread.php?t=73578&page=3 Users are asked approximately their motivations in back downloading Kin and basic questions not quite how they plot to use the app. After answering these questions the user earns 80 kin and is told to arrive assist tomorrow, following theyd completed more tasks. The Product Users are also total the opportunity to redeem their Kin for gift cards ranging between $5 and $25 (although 80 Kin is not ample to redeem anything). Their marketing materials picture Kin as fun to use and asking questions practically how likely users were to attempt Halloween-themed donut treats, how many pounds a tiger can consume at one become old and which brands the users are aware of. 

They even pay for the talent for users to reply the prompts gone emojis. The idea here is to make an open reduction for users to earn kin and incentivize them to spend it. for that reason far, it seems as soon as its working: in the apps private beta the app achieved a 10-day retention rate of 75% (compared to an industry average of less than 30%). on top of that 66% of users used the app for at least 3 weeks and on the subject of 49% of users were not classified as covetousness their kin. The company with shared user feedback approximately its tasks. For the most allocation users afterward light-hearted questions just about how they look money, relations guy style university questions such as Batman or Superman, and what groups users were involved in on their bookish campuses. even if the addict feedback appears to be excellent, it does appear to be quite similar to an existing product.
