FROM CRYPTO TO IMPACT: ‘ALONE YOU CAN DO NOTHING, YOU HAVE TO DO IT TOGETHER’
The impact that crypto can have on society? It really has yet to begin, and together we are putting it on the map. Knaken and the Johan Cruyff Foundation demonstrate…
Knaken, a leading Dutch crypto broker, and Planq Network, an ambitious and emerging blockchain project from the Netherlands, announce a groundbreaking strategic partnership. This collaboration promises to significantly expand and strengthen the capabilities of both parties.
At the core of this partnership is the integration of Planq Network’s own $PLQ coin on the Knaken platform. This allows Knaken users to deposit, trade, and use $PLQ for payments with Knaken Settle. Knaken Settle, offered in collaboration with partners including Buckaroo, positions itself alongside iDeal as an innovative payment method.
An exciting addition is the option for Knaken users to directly “stake” $PLQ on the Knaken platform. This marks $PLQ as the first crypto asset available for staking via Knaken, allowing users to lock their tokens for a variable interest rate. Ronald Jonkers, CEO of Knaken, notes: “At Knaken, we have always had a passion for supporting unique Dutch crypto projects. Planq Network fits perfectly into this vision. Their complete solution, vision, and the staking and payment possibilities through Settle bring something exceptional to the table. This partnership is a testament to our commitment to providing innovative, high-quality crypto experiences.”
Thom Romp, marketing manager of Planq Network, adds: “The integration of Planq Network on Knaken is an important milestone. We are excited to establish our presence through a leading platform like Knaken and look forward to the positive impact this will have.”
Both parties are determined to further intensify the collaboration and anticipate future announcements with more features and developments for their joint users.
