Their vision is a future where day to day payments are conducted via crypto. The project has even amped the distribution of <a href=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/pundi-x-cryptocurrency-pos-machines-are-now-available-for-order-with-25000-units-sold-thus-far\/\">its Point-of-Sale devices<\/a> around the globe in a bid to keep up with the demand from retailers\/merchants. Their plan is to distribute over 100,000 Pundi XPOS devices in more than 12 countries.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Token Swap<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In an announcement via twitter, the team at Pundi X announced that <strong>the last day to swap old tokens for the new NPXS and NPXSXEM is the 20th of September, 2018 at 23:59 (GMT + 8)<\/strong>. The ratio for swapping the tokens is 1 PXS for 1,000 NPXS.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">More on how to carry out the token swap before the deadline can be found on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pundix.com\/swap\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">this link<\/a> on their official website.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">With respect to the token swap for its NEM members, the step-by-step guide is also available<a href=\"https:\/\/pundix.com\/swapNEM\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> via this link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>XPASS Cards Issued In Taiwan<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">In a very colorful tweet, the Pundi X team showed the issuance of XPASS cards to Ultra Taiwan 2018 event participants. The XPASS card allows users to conduct transactions just like how they use the regular metro top-up cards used for public transportation. A full public release has not been announced by the team at Pundi X, but the NPXS community is very much enthusiastic about the launch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">The tweet showing this update can be found below:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We are relieved to see XPASS cards well received by <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/UltraTaiwan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">@UltraTaiwan<\/a> 2018 participants.

This means that if Pundi X makes $1 of revenue from a transaction, we will take $1 worth of NPXS out of circulation permanently. NPXS tokens taken out of circulation will never be able to re-enter the circulation in any way as they will no longer exist.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">It is therefore with this promise that the team has taken out\u00a0<strong>500,001,139<\/strong> NPXS out from the total supply in August.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong>Market Performance of NPXS<\/strong><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Further looking at the market performance of NPXS, we find that the digital asset was affected by the <a href=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/goldman-sachs-bitcoin-trading-desk-fake-news-2018\/\">Goldman Sachs fake news<\/a> of September 5th. As a result, NPXS has fallen from comfortable levels of $0.00235 before the fake news, to current levels of $0.00135. This is a 42.5% decrease in value in 2 weeks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">However, the crypto markets have since stabilized and the price of NPXS could be headed to the levels seen before the fake news, and led by <a href=\"https:\/\/ethereumworldnews.com\/bitcoin-btc-price-analysis-short-term-reversal-pattern-forming\/\">a relatively stable Bitcoin<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h6 style=\"text-align: justify\"><strong><em>Disclaimer: This article is not meant to give financial advice.
