Update! New Coin on CEX.IO: Welcome #MetaHashCoin!

, May 21, 2019

We’re glad to inform you that today we’ve enabled deposits and crypto pairs for #MetaHashCoin (MHC), the native coin of the #MetaHash network. #MetaHash is a high-performance decentralized network with an original protocol and a platform for creating and managing decentralized apps and services in real time.

#MetaHash deploys a proprietary consensus mechanism that allows for generating and validating blocks in parallel with the synchronization process. The resulting network throughput reaches over 50,000 transactions per second with validation times of under three seconds. Delegated proof of stake (DPoS) is a core element of the #MetaHash consensus, making MHC the first staking coin we’ve added to our ecosystem.

Listing Details and Planned Updates

To ensure a smooth process, we’ll be listing MHC in stages:

  • Starting today, you’re welcome to trade the MHC/BTC and MHC/ETH pairs.
  • On June 4, 2019, MHC-to-fiat pairs will become available.
  • On June 7, 2019, MHC withdrawals will be activated.

Why #MetaHashCoin?

As part of CEX.IO’s new listing policy, we want to bring transparency to our listing process. We take every project we consider through due diligence and evaluate it from many different angles. Here are the key highlights that made #MetaHash interesting for us:

  • High scalability due to a unique consensus mechanism
  • Available MainNet, promising partnerships, and growing adoption
  • A vibrant community and competitive environment for full node providers
  • Approved utility status with the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA)

Restrictions

Please note that MHC is available for all verified users except for residents of China, South Korea, and the United States.

Experience the #MetaHash Innovation

We’re excited to add MHC to our ecosystem. A DPoS-type coin powering a growing network supported by enthusiasts around the world opens up new opportunities to our users.

As usual, stay tuned for updates and join us on Telegram to discuss and share your thoughts: https://t.me/CEX_IO.
