Full-stack Privacy for Elrond Tools via HOPR, 1st Binance Labs investment of 2020
We are excited to announce that we are working with HOPR to bring full-stack privacy for Elrond blockchain tools. Our work with HOPR will help increase the confidence of businesses and users leveraging the Elrond tools for engaging with our protocol to exchange value and data.
HOPR is a data privacy startup that recently secured a $1M funding round led by Binance Labs. The Swiss team is building a Tor-like privacy network, but with stronger privacy guarantees that is fully decentralized and provides economic incentives for node operators.
“Our protocol offers a new standard for internet-scale performance, probabilistic security, and cryptographic pseudonymity. We’re happy to bridge the last mile to the Elrond network entry-points with HOPR, and offer a truly decentralized & private end-to-end experience for our users.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.

🔥 Elrond Spendable Directly from 💳 VISA Cards at 60 Million Merchants, +500.000 New Users via Swipe
We are thrilled to announce that Elrond will be integrated with Swipe services. This will make the $ERD token directly available for onboarding by more than 500.000 new users.
Furthermore, $ERD will be spendable via Swipe Wallet and its associated Visa debit cards, in either digital or physical form, at 60 million merchants directly, as well as through services such as Google Pay, Apple Pay & Samsung Pay.
“Bringing our high throughput, low latency, and inexpensive transactional layer online is an important step for our launch. Convenience, ease of use, and utility for the ERD currency is another. We are thrilled to work with the Swipe team, on an integration which brings us closer to what will be a defining moment for the new internet economy.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.
Swipe Wallets have associated virtual Visa debit cards, which can also be obtained in physical form, to be used as any normal card. The payment process automatically converts the selected cryptocurrency into fiat to execute a seamless transaction at any of the 60 million merchants, or via Google, Apple and Samsung payment services.
The integration is important for Elrond because it gets access to 500.000 new users in 31 European countries, and soon launching in Asia and North America. It also offers existing Elrond users the possibility to spend $ERD directly as $EUR, $GBP, $USD and $KRW anywhere VISA cards are accepted, as well as through the major mobile payment services, with cashback options in Bitcoin.

⚔️ Battle of Nodes: Onchained - Where No Node Has Gone Before
Lucian Mincu, Elrond CIO:
Battle of Nodes was an enormous success and it has a very clear winner. One that was better, more mature and better equipped than all the others. A winner that, throughout the event, was consistent in hard work, progress, perseverance, and ultimately performance - Elrond.
Most of the incentivized testnet events from other projects had only a handful of players standing out, very far away from the rest. Winning required topical knowledge and extraordinary efforts to fill in huge gaps, with the prevailing teams ending up light-years ahead of the other participants.
In Battle of Nodes, the hardest working and most knowledgeable ultimately did earn more rewards, as they should. But Elrond won. We demonstrated that anyone with a 2CPU & 4GB RAM computer had a decent chance of competing. That’s because our protocol is capable of that and our tooling is ready for mass adoption.
That is a big win out of the entire event and my key takeaway ahead of our mainnet launch. A bigger win yet is the Validator community that rallied around our Genesis block. I couldn’t be more thrilled with who we have on board right now.
Here’s how we got here. Rankings & rewards inside👇

Salut 🇷🇴 Romania! RON/ERD & EUR/ERD Pairs Available on Romanian Exchange & Fiat On/Off-ramp LDV Bank
We’re excited to announce the $ERD is now directly available to exchange against fiat on LDV Bank. The Romanian cryptocurrency fiat gateway has added RON/ERD and EUR/ERD pairs, available as on & off-ramps.
This collaboration is very important for Elrond’s Romanian local strategy and in line with our overall global strategy. Elrond will be gradually launched in several individual countries, where we intend to establish and maintain a strong local presence.
“The network effects generated by our accelerated progress, and the upcoming launch, have been remarkably well received by our strong Romanian community. A direct fiat gateway with the local RON currency comes at the right moment, meeting the surge in demand in a very convenient and timely manner. It’s great to work with the team at LDV Bank to accelerate local expansion.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.

We’re excited to announce the $ERD is now directly available to exchange against fiat on LDV Bank. The Romanian cryptocurrency fiat gateway has added RON/ERD and EUR/ERD pairs, available as on & off-ramps.
This collaboration is very important for Elrond’s Romanian local strategy and in line with our overall global strategy. Elrond will be gradually launched in several individual countries, where we intend to establish and maintain a strong local presence.
“The network effects generated by our accelerated progress, and the upcoming launch, have been remarkably well received by our strong Romanian community. A direct fiat gateway with the local RON currency comes at the right moment, meeting the surge in demand in a very convenient and timely manner. It’s great to work with the team at LDV Bank to accelerate local expansion.” said Beniamin Mincu, Elrond CEO.
