It is not just crypto and the markets which are picking up speed, Bitpanda is adding new assets for you to trade almost as quickly as the markets are growing. We want to make sure that we add the assets our community wants to trade. After adding our first DeFi tokens and another six right after, ANT, BTT, DGB and OCEAN were the next assets to join. Now another DeFi coin, Algorand (ALGO), is the newest addition to our asset family.
About Algorand (ALGO)
Algorand (ALGO) is a decentralised, secure and scalable open-source blockchain project aiming to solve the “trilemma” of high security, high speed and low cost to achieve “frictionless finance”.
The Algorand network is based on a Pure Proof of Stake (Pure PoS) consensus mechanism with new blocks created during two phases and where user participation is proportional to user stake.
Algorand finalises blocks within seconds, thereby also reducing computational costs for participating in the blockchain to a minimum, thus greatly reducing transaction costs. As the first blockchain to provide immediate transaction finality without forks, the Algorand project is working towards a decentralised, borderless economy.
Algorand’s native coin, ALGO, can be used to pay for transaction fees and DApp computations, as well as for staking and earning in the Algorand network. Find out more about Algorand (ALGO) on their official website.
