BlockchainFX (BFX) Wins Both Awards and Hearts of Industry Experts
In addition to being an award-winning project, BlockchainFX (BFX) has been attracting positive reviews from major analysts, including crypto YouTuber Crypto Volt. However, these positive reviews wouldn’t count if the presale star fails to live up to expectations, which is to become a one-stop platform for all kinds of traders.
What‘s unique about this project? As a multi-market super trading app, BlockchainFX makes it possible for users to trade diverse digital assets, including cryptocurrency, forex, stocks, indices, and commodities, all in a single place. Likewise, BlockchainFX’s multi-layer incentive is considered a major attraction, especially for early backers.
🔎 Insider Insight: Thanks to its low presale price of $0.0145, BlockchainFX is now close to reaching $3 million funding milestone. While a positive outlook reflects growing interest in the project, the project’s multi-market appeal also positions it as a strong challenger to major platforms like Binance and Robinhood.
