Thank you for always supporting me!”
Looking back at Moonsteak’s achievements, let’s talk with Chief Advisor Shogo Ishida and CEO Lawrence Lin about the exciting future of Moonsteak after 2021.
Lawrence Lin: Hello. This is Lawrence Lin, CEO of Moonsteak. It has been a year since our debut in the Moonstake staking business with the aim of building the largest staking network in Asia. We have developed a user-friendly staking wallet. Moonstake web wallet for web browser and Moonstake mobile wallet for iOS / Android that supports over 2000 cryptocurrencies. Moonstake’s staking community now easily gets staking rewards from all the high-demand POS coins in the market, including Cosmos, IRIS, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, and most recently Orbs. can.
Moonsteak is also a leading provider of Emurgo (global blockchain solutions provider and founder of Cardano), NEO, Ontology, Wanchain and decentralized projects including Pundi X, RAMP DEFI, TZ Ventures, RockX, Stake Technologies and public blockchains such as Orbs, Unido. Established strategic partnerships with industry players. These partnerships not only allow Moonstake to stake more PoS coins for their users, but also make Moonstake’s technology ecosystem more accessible to the global staking community.
Question: What are the biggest barriers to staking right now and how should they be addressed for investors and blockchain business?
Lawrence Lin: It’s definitely a lack of awareness and still inaccessible user experience. Most of the public knows about cryptocurrencies with crazy price changes, which are bitcoins, but PoS coins are invisible to the public such as stocks, real estate, gold, etc. In fact, staking is basically like putting it in a bank as a concept of savings, but it’s much safer because it’s on a decentralized network instead of a centralized banking system.
But staking isn’t just about putting money in a safe. Essentially, it is an activity that affects the operation of the blockchain network because it selects validators (miners) to facilitate transactions. Due to this added technical complexity, staking can seem too intimidating for ordinary cryptocurrency investors, even more so for companies looking to adopt blockchain.
Moonstake is committed to accelerating the adoption of staking by addressing both of these issues for investors and businesses. By hosting initiatives such as educational webinars and working with both blockchain projects and institutions, we want to help spread awareness of blockchain and decentralized technologies more effectively. At the same time, through an official partnership with the blockchain project, we have developed a user-friendly Moonstake wallet that supports only the most demanded PoS coins, allowing investors to make good returns from the fund with optimal returns without dealing with technical complexity. It also provides Moonstake staking pool and node solutions to enterprises, allowing businesses to leverage and benefit from blockchain in an easy, plug-and-play manner.
Q: There has been an announcement of the introduction in the DeFi domain, but what kind of development does Moonstake plan to try in the DeFi domain?
Shogo Ishida: On March 31st, we announced the DeFi project Muse.Finance, and as a partner, we are participating in the DeFi project in collaboration with Moonstake. In addition to creating their own products, Moonstake will widely embrace applications of DeFi products that want to connect to the Moonstake platform. Muse.Finance allows crypto asset holders to participate in staking, while benefiting from blending through lab assets. It is a decentralized platform for yield farming at the same time. The ecosystem design consisting of Muse Swap, Muse Lending, and Muse Wrap is realizing a PoS platform that connects Ethereum 2.0 with the DeFi ecosystem of tokens issued by Ethereum (ERC-20) and creates liquidity. In addition, by using advanced cross-chain technology, we are expanding the crypto asset economy that can provide services starting with Cardano, Polkadot, Solana, Oasis, Terra, and Centrality.
Muse.Finance plans to launch lab and swap products in May. After that, we plan to strengthen the DeFi platform sequentially, such as blending and yield firming, within this year.
