Ever wonder what it would take for you to get the logo of a company you work for tattooed on your body? Over the years we’ve come to this point.
Our story takes us back to 2017 when our founders were active crypto traders, hustling and making bank. While they did their research and trades, they realized they had to have a bunch of browser tabs open so they could find the information they were looking for and have it all at their disposal, from recent news to price charts and educational content.
As the crypto frenzy unveiled at the end of 2017, our founders quickly realized there's a rising demand for a wholesome, transparent platform that will aid experienced traders with all relevant news and analysis tools, as well as give the newcomers a place to kickstart their trading career and show them how the magic works. They had a vision for the best place in crypto that will answer the rising needs of the crypto community.
The idea quickly became a reality as a small team started developing such a platform. For a year and a half they worked diligently, preparing everything necessary while learning a few key aspects of crypto project development at the same time. When they were finally satisfied with the product, they released the first version of the platform to the public in September of 2019, together with the first listing.
As the listing unveiled, the price of the native NWC token was slowly going up and down from one to two cents, a humble start to be sure. When the first users came to the site, the crew was dreaming about how it would be, if they actually achieved their goal of being the best entry point for crypto newcomers as well as an aggregate of all necessary information for traders.
Some were doubtful of how far the project would reach and some were convinced they’d eventually make it. As time went on, bets were placed among the core members on the price of the NWC token as well as how many active users the platform would have. If certain goals were met, the doubters would have to do crazy stunts and the believers would be faithful enough to get a tattoo of the NWC logo as a sign of their commitment to the project’s success as well as a reminder of what they achieved together.
Slowly but surely, the project gained traction. The number of active users on the platform grew and the outreach on social media increased. Soon, the team had to be expanded to satisfy the needs of the project and to handle the user base. We started connecting with all sorts of advisors, spokesmen and ambassadors. Eventually we’ve started to achieve more and more milestones and the doubters had to eat their words while doing the stunts. And lastly, our guys got the NWC logo tattooed as we’ve celebrated our success!
Eventually, even the official logo evolved. Today, the logo that our guys got tattooed on their arms has many hidden messages in it. The outside hexagon symbolizes a shield, the lower lines inside represents the hands holding Bitcoin, the upper inner line denotes a roof. The overall design inspires security and shelter (as a safe place to start your journey) and the blue colour indicates confidence for future success.
Of course, this is just the start of our journey as we have a bunch more things planned for the future. We truly believe our platform will eventually become “the best place in crypto” for experienced traders and newcomers alike. Until then, our vision and our plans are well presented in our roadmap, which you can check out here.
