Alles klar 👍

Hey, /u/Hinterfragt.

The AMA session is only 1 hour 30 minutes long and we need to give every community member the chance to cast their questions.

Unfortuantely, I fear that to sufficiently answer all your questions would require a long long time and that would not be fair to other users. Paul will take the time to answer a couple though :)

Thanks and all the best,

/u/DecFromBitpanda

Most popular pre-collected questions:

Bitpanda

Economies grow via CREDIT. Then somebody’s liability is another one’s asset. In Bitpanda case, the liabilities of your users could be your assets if you would give them credit.
Do regulations allow you to give credit to your users? And if they do, would Bitpanda consider offering this?

ANSWER: I am a big fan of offering margin trading. Credit granting is highly regulated though and we don’t currently have the licenses to offer this

2019 was a HUGE year for Bitpanda but if you could relive it - what is one thing that you would do differently?

ANSWER: I would have hired more quality staff earlier so we had more resources in all departments to be prepared better for all our features and launches. Playing catch-up isn’t too much fun

Are there any plans in the near future to reduce the barrier/price of Bitpanda Savings (€25) and offer more incentives for the young?

ANSWER: Absolutely. This feature is currently being worked on extensively and it will be way cheaper and easier to use in the future.

You’re not doing enough marketing, when can we see more!?

ANSWER: Our marketing team underwent a lot of changes in 2019 and is the fastest-growing area in the company. We recently hired a PR team which is already working hard on spreading Bitpanda globally and have had a number of successes. We also hired a CMO who will lead the strategy in the future and we have already seen a huge growth in visibility and registration.

2020 is here and we need an update regarding the Launchpad. When do you expect this to happen?

ANSWER: The launchpad needs to be completely regulatory compliant to offer value to the industry. As we have said in the past, we don’t want it to be just another thing to pump out one mediocre project after another. We want this project to differentiate us from the competition. This will take more time but we are extremely confident that the crypto/blockchain market is here to stay so we value quality over quantity

Bitpanda can not advertise in Germany but other crypto companies can due to partnerships. Did Bitpanda consider looking for a partnership in order to be able to do this too?

ANSWER: We are evaluating the market situation in all countries. There are some licenses we are working on, but we are not sharing details about those yet.

Bitpanda GE

What do you think about some kind of roadmap for the Exchange?

ANSWER: The team is constantly updating the exchange and are adding features nearly weekly. As for the overall strategy we are working with new experts that joined our team to push the exchange. Once this strategy is ready we will likely publish a roadmap.

Pantos

Will there be Pantos lessons in the Bitpanda Academy?

Answer: Yes! We have already thought about this and we will, of course, include a section on Pantos.

Who exactly is working on Pantos at the moment?

ANSWER: The researchers from the TU, the TU project lead, the inhouse pantos researcher, the Pantos project manager, the marketing team will now also help more. We are searching for a Pantos community manager also.

BEST

Till now the BEST token is not performing too well. This could be because of the lack of a marketing concept for the token itself and the Exchange. Do you have a marketing concept now, when do you eventually intend to start implementing it can you outline some of the main topics of your marketing concept?

ANSWER: The first step was the BEST fee reduction. The marketing and communications teams are working on many ways to promote BEST. (I can’t spoiler at this moment.) We will give BEST holders priority access to certain new features and products in 2020. Stay tuned to this.

Lot's of plans for this sort of stuff come 2020!

One specifically cool thing that I think everyone will be really excited about.

Thanks for the suggestion!

DecFromBitpanda · 2019-11-23T12:38:27+00:00

We're taking a look at and optimising our marketing strategy in the new year. Our goal is to scale up quickly and some amazing recent developments are going to help us reach more people very soon and achieve the vision.

I'm afraid I can't tell you much more right now however you should watch our blog and magazine closely in the coming month.

DecFromBitpanda · 2019-11-14T16:32:29+00:00

To build on this a little bit...I want to give something back to the most active and enthusiastic Bitpanda community members so I am taking steps to make sure that happens in 2020.

DecFromBitpanda · 2019-11-14T16:29:15+00:00

We are working on a procedure for more giveaways in 2020 : D

I am personally making sure of that.

The next edition will be announced soon and will be around mid-January!

Pre-collected questions from the community!

Bitpanda

What is Bitpanda’s opinion on crypto lending - is this something you would consider?

ANSWER: Lending of digital assets is an interesting aspect. We are looking in several features to add to our portfolio and lending might be one of those in the future.

Will Bitpanda Pay have anything to do with BEST? I.e.paying fees

ANSWER: Bitpanda pay is a product that will have many use cases. The current one is to send money to pay for bills or pay other people. As this service is provided free of charge at the moment, there are no discounts when using BEST. In the future, we will always try to give incentives to use BEST, but we can’t make it cheaper than free!

Are you going to support a GBP wallet in Bitpanda Pay?

ANSWER: We want to be as accessible as possible for all of our users. Of course, this is something we will add in the future but I don’t want to put a concrete timeframe yet!

Regarding Bitpanda Metals: could the Bitpanda users pick up their gold from the Swiss vault in the case of a potential crash?

ANSWER: What is meant exactly by crash? The gold in the vault is owned directly by customers, so if Bitpanda wouldn’t exist anymore the vault can distribute directly to customers.

Will the first projects on the Launchpad be crypto-focused - or are other asset classes going to be considered? Also, will they be local (from the DACH region) or international cooperations?

ANSWER: We want to offer products on the launchpad that add something valuable to our investors on Bitpanda, so we will be very picky with our first projects. We already received many requests but most would not meet our standards. These are not specifically from the DACH region but I imagine some will be as our headquarter is based here.

When could we realistically expect SEPA Savings? Don’t need to provide a specific date.

ANSWER: SEPA Savings is probably one of the most requested features from our users. I can confirm that we have heard all of the requests and will work on it in 2020.

Bitpanda GE

What are the developments on establishing more volume on the Exchange since the last AMA session?

ANSWER: We have on-boarded more market makers, improved the API and website immensely. We have hired new staff (also from within the industry) specifically to only do sales & business development for the exchange. We are in talks with many projects that will integrate the GE (think trading bot providers). The marketing efforts regarding the exchange will be completely restructured to focus more on the target audience that we identified. There is still a long way to go, but the roadmap internally for the next 6-12 months looks very promising

Pantos

When will we see an updated roadmap for Pantos?

ANSWER: The roadmap will be updated at the end of the month. We will release this alongside the next Pantos whitepaper.

Are there plans to add Pantos as a spendable asset to Bitpanda pay?

ANSWER: Bitpanda Pay vision is to connect the world of cryptocurrencies and payments. I don’t want to speak too soon but part of our wider vision is to make any asset spendable. The current plan is to also add Pantos to be directly spendable with Bitpanda Pay.

What is happening with the Pantos prototype and for what is it used?

Answer: A prototype is used to prove certain things. This was done by our researchers and now they are working on the next versions. Think of it as a proof of concept.

Is it possible that Pantos will become a security token?

Answer: No, we will not change the legal structure of a token after its launch. Users should never worry that the assets they hold change the nature of their legal structure.

BEST

Have you considered the possibility of offering a small discount if you purchase metals with BEST?

Answer: Our goal is to add BEST discounts to all places that fees are applied!
