The Company is currently devoting resources to researching the two promising sectors of Decentralized Finance (DeFi) and Non Fungible Tokens (NFT) as these are high growth areas. Cointelegraph reports the sales volume from the top three platforms grew to $342 million in February, up almost 400% from the $71 million recorded the month before.
