Privacy Platform Particl Forms Strategic Alliance with Changelly
Bitcoin Press Release: Particl, an open-source project building privacy-focused decentralized applications, has partnered with crypto exchange Changelly to allow more users and more tokens to shop in private on the Particl Marketplace.
June 19, 2018, Zug, Switzerland – Both Changelly and Particl have been working on strategies for crypto users to spend and earn coins on decentralized platforms. Consensus 2018 provided a perfect venue for both teams to discuss eCommerce check-out solutions, online shopping with crypto and opening the doors for more coin users around the globe to shop in privacy.
Konstantin Gladych, CEO & Co-Founder, Changelly stated
“Changelly is pleased to have Particl as a partner. Working together, we can implement an all-in-one approach to interaction between cryptocurrencies and provide the smoothest user experience possible.”
The Partnership
Particl Marketplace is currently live on testnet with the native privacy coin, PART, being the only cryptocurrency vendors can accept and buyers can spend. One of the core values of Particl is to build privacy-focused dapps that give the ability for any cryptocurrency user to spend their favorite coins; BTC, LTC, ETH or others. Building a private eCommerce solution for the entire crypto ecosystem benefits fans of all cryptocurrency projects.
Changelly has developed an instant exchange API such as Coinomi, Coinpayments and Jaxx leverage that partners within their products, allowing users to exchange cryptocurrency without using external exchanges. Changelly acts as a mediator between Binance, Bittrex and other partners to bring new exchange options to Particl.
Together, Particl and Changelly will enhance the checkout process on the Particl Marketplace to make it easy for users with crypto to shop online in private. This partnership gives the 100+ coins and tokens listed on Changelly instant access to all the products being sold within Particl Marketplace. The exchange of coins to PART will happen seamlessly in the background and add an additional level of privacy using Particl’s Confidential Transactions.
Ryno Mathee – Lead Developer, Particl commented
“I am excited about our partnership with Changelly. They provide a much-needed service, and this opens up many opportunities for Particl.”
