KICK ECOSYSTEM Recap — Issue 12
Good afternoon. Relentless march of time shows no sign of slowing down and we are closer and closer to the bleak yellow embrace of autumn, but we can at least take solace in the fact that Thursday has rolled around once again! So we can indulge in another Dev Diary for Kick Ecosystem. It’s been a while, and we have a lot to share.
Before we dive deep into the technical details of Kick Ecosystem components, we want to highlight an extremely important achievement that came to life last week! KickRef and KickID, a multi-level referral program, and an all-in-one authenticator service, are open for public beta testing! In just a week testing operation, KickRef has accumulated over 40,000 users!
KickRef referral program is a type of multi-level marketing that allows you to get solid benefits from the activity of the individuals you invite. Everyone is eligible for taking home $3,000 in Kick Tokens. These people can be your friends, family members or even strangers that just used your referral link. You will benefit not only from those who you’ve invited directly but also from the further chain of reference. Up to 50% of the KickEx revenue goes into the KickRef program so that the wealth be shared between the eligible users.
