Update May14: GENE Wallet Enhancements

As promised, today we have introduced two new important features to the GENE Wallet:

1. We have developed, tested and added the functionality to send and receive Bitcoin and Ethereum, opening up blockchain transactions for the GENE Wallet. This functionality is enabled through highly secure infrastructure supported by cold-storage without any storage fees.

GENE Wallet users benefit from a highly secure and convenient wallet to keep their cryptocurrencies in one place.

2. We have enabled GENE buy transactions to be reflected on the exchanges in real-time. This way, users benefit from being able to buy GENE tokens through the GENE Wallet in real-time and storing them in one place.

We are committed to continuously enhancing the GENE Wallet by adding new features to improve functionality, convenience, as well as security. We have more major upgrades to the GENE Wallet coming-up soon and we will follow-up with an announcement, so please stay tuned for our newest developments.

Do you find the new features we announced today useful? Would you like to propose other features to be added to the GENE Wallet? Let us know by joining the PARKGENE community and commenting on our social channels, Facebook, Twitter,  on Reddit and our Telegram channel.

CoinMarketCap officially lists PARKGENE’s – GENE Token

A message to the PARKGENE community by PARKGENE CEO, Nikolas Skarlatos :

Dear Friends,

We are delighted to announce that CoinMarketCap, the number one trusted resource on cryptocurrency market information, has officially listed the GENE token here:
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/parkgene/

The official CoinMarketCap listing puts the GENE token at the heart of the cryptocurrency community and justifies our efforts of the past year. We want to thank the PARKGENE community for their support, since it was the trading and the community activity that drove the CoinMarketCap listing.

The CoinMarketCap official listing is another step forward for the GENE token:

  • The PARKGENE community can now get the most up-to-date and credible information on the GENE token’s financial indicators.
  • The CoinMarketCap listing helps with the token’s exposure to a wider cryptocurrency audience interested in the token itself but also in the PARKGENE business.
  • This way, PARKGENE business progress will be associated with the GENE token’s performance more effectively.
  • Finally, we continue to do our best to list the GENE token on other exchanges and the CoinMarketCap official listing will help in our efforts.

On the business side of things, we’d like to remind you that we’ve successfully launched the PARKGENE web service, integrated with the GENE Wallet, as well as the new website where parking spot owners can list their parking spots.

Also, on Monday, May 14th, as promised, we are launching additional enhancements to the GENE Wallet, along with a related announcement.

We continue to work towards the commercial roll-out of PARKGENE Service and our plan to release the Mobile Apps and Web Booking service on June 4th, 2018.

We will continue to keep you regularly updated with our progress.

Sincerely,
Nikolas Skarlatos,

CEO – PARKGENE

PARKGENE Web Service and new Website Launch

Dear PARKGENE Supporters,

We are delighted to announce the launch of our new website, as promised, found at https://genewalletnew.wpengine.com. The new site implements the first of our two-step approach for the peer-to-peer PARKGENE service, with the GENE Wallet being an integral part.

In this first step we allow parking space owners to list their space with the PARKGENE service, thus making the spots available for drivers who will be looking for parking in their area. This service is made available worldwide and users can list their parking spots wherever they live.

The two-step approach is important to acquire the critical mass of parking spots needed, before we make them publicly available to our drivers. It’s also an important time to do user testing and to optimize the service.

We continue to work towards the commercial roll-out of PARKGENE Service and we plan to release the Mobile Apps and Web Booking service on June 4th, 2018.

We are looking forward to the community’s engagement and enlargement. To that end we will soon announce our referral reward scheme for our members to invite their friends to join and become part of the Global Parking revolution that PARKGENE introduces today.

Please feel free to register and list your parking spots so you are ready when we open for business. Every new user will receive 50 GENE tokens to spend within the PARKGENE service (not intended for trading in exchanges).

We will keep you posted on our progress.

The PARKGENE Team.

PARKGENE Status Update – April 23

Dear PARKGENE Supporters

We would like to share a quick update on some of the activities that have kept us busy in the past week:

  1. On Monday 26/4 we distributed the GENE Tokens to participants who passed the KYC process and provided an ETH Wallet address.
  2. The same morning we distributed the GENE Tokens to Bounty Hunters who provided their ETH Wallet address.
  3. The GENE Token, since then, has been accepted and trading in three exchanges (BTC-Alpha, Bitpaction, GETbtc)
  4. Trading during week 1 was dominated by sellers who have put a pressure on the GENE Token price, currently trading around $0,012.
  5. Our Team has been supporting all participants and new interested users around the clock on our Telegram Channel and Email.
  6. On the business front we are getting ready for the official launch of the PARKGENE Peer-to-Peer Parking service which is fully integrated with GENE Token and other Cryptocurrency payments.
  7. The GENE Wallet, acting as the payment gateway for the Parking App is already available on Google Play Store while the iOS Version is under review from the AppStore. We believe that the documentation provided to Apple will allow them to list the App soon. We will keep you posted on this.
    The GENE WALLET for Android can be found here at the Google Play Store
  8. We have made the strategic decision to integrate the PARKGENE Peer-to-Peer application with the existing PARKGURU application, so that users are able to access all types of available parking options from one app, using GENE Tokens for payment. This is a major development as it puts PARKGENE at the heart of our 60K+ user community and will drive significant demand for the GENE Token.
  9. We are working with sites like CoinMarketCap to list the GENE token.
  10. We are also in discussions with several Exchanges that could offer significant liquidity to the GENE Token.

 

Next Steps:
We are working hard on executing our roadmap and our next steps include the following:

  1. We are launching the new PARKGENE WebSite for the new PARKGENE Service by May 7th, which allows users to list their parking spot. Approximately one week later we are launching the service that includes the Mobile Apps and a full Web interface.
  2. Next week (beginning of May) we are offering several enhancements to our GENE Wallet, such as ability to transfer In & Out, Bitcoin and Ethereum as well as the ability to trade GENE for Bitcoin or Ethereum and vice versa.
  3. There will be several Announcements on strategic partnerships that we have been working on, aimed to enhance the PARKGENE Ecosystem and the demand for GENE Tokens.

Please stay tuned for more information on the above and future PARKGENE developments.

PARKGENE ICO Status Update

February 16, 2018

ICO Extended for 4 weeks – 50% Bonus for new purchases

Dear PARKGENE ICO supporters,

We would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your strong support to-date, and to let you know that we will be extending the period for our ICO, to update you about our progress and next steps:

Firstly, we would like to announce the extension of our ICO period for an additional 4 weeks, given the current market conditions and volatility. The ICO will run until we have sold-out the hard cap, or until March 19, 2018. Our decision to extend the ICO period was influenced by the following:

  • Our initial ICO period was very short, just one month. Crypto market high volatility affected our ICO’s initial strong momentum.
  • Many of our current backers are requesting that we extend the ICO and future backers are asking for more time.
  • We need more time to finalize agreements with the exchanges.

More than anyone else, we want the PARKGENE ICO to be as successful as possible and please rest assured that we will take all necessary steps to maximize the value for our backers.

In the meantime:

  1. We are simplifying our volatility protection and for as long as Ethereum is trading below $1200. Effective immediately we will be offering a 50% bonus for all new token purchases. We feel that even in this market climate, this is a very strong incentive to join the PARKGENE ICO.

On the PARKGENE ICO progress:

  • We’re happy to inform you that we have reached the important milestone of 100 million GENE tokens sold.
  • The PARKGENE project is on track and we are preparing to launch the Beta version.
  • There are several imminent strategic partnerships which we will announce as they become final.
  • Our roadshow has also yielded many new opportunities which we are exploring.
  • Finally, our talks with exchanges on listing the GENE token are finalizing.

We are grateful for your support and for your patience. We will continue to keep you informed of our progress. If you have any questions please contact us on our Telegram channel.
