February Newsletter
We would like to provide the Smartlands February roundup so here are the main events of the month. We prepared the short summaries of the major recent news.
Expansion
Smartlands is expanding its services into the tokenization of the assets of the real economy. We do not want to deprive the SLT holders and other crypto community participants of excellent opportunities to tokenize real economy assets, while we understand that our framework developed for agriculture may serve well other real economy industries as well. The tokenization of agricultural assets remains our highest priority and the main idea. Read the full release here.
New Logo
Smartlands changes its logo to emphasize the strategic expansion to tokenize real economy assets. The tree in our new logo is no longer just a plant to symbolize Smartlands’ involvement in the agricultural sector, but rather it is the emblem of growth, prosperity and unlimited opportunities for Smartlands Platform, SLT token holders, perspective ABT investors and our partners.

Token Sale
BHANDER is to be the Smartlands’ partner token sale. The project was publicly announced during the FinTech Week Tel Aviv 2018. BHANDER is the ecosystem build around the easy to use, secure, affordable device that provides an ability to use cryptocurrencies in everyday life in the “offline” world. BHANDER device is a credit card-sized device with the price tag of a hamburger and easier to use than a TV remote that provides P2P crypto transactions. Token sale details will be announced later.

Biggest Gainer
The SLT valuation has sustainably changed resulting in SLT being a persistent member of the Top-5 Biggest Gainers (trailing 7 days) on CoinMarketCap and reached #1 position frequently. The SLT price growth is a great motivation for the team to work hard on reaching the next milestones and providing great news for SLT holders.
Long Read
Smartlands has published an article about the volatility of the cryptocurrency market and the solution that will be provided by Smartlands to protect investor’s portfolios from Bitcoin’s wild ride. Take time to read if you missed it.
Further Steps
Smartlands currently prioritizes the development of the ABT ICO legal framework to launch the first ICO on Smartlands Platform as soon as possible. We believe that the first ABT ICO will be significant event for the Platform and the crypto community in general. Reaching this milestone will bring the project to a new level. As it was previously mentioned, the team cooperates with the large international legal firms to develop the framework and the legal roadmap will be presented soon.
