OpenLedger supported project Karma (www.karma.red), a global decentralized p2p lending platform today announced the official open of trading of the KRM token. The OpenLedger DEX (OpenLedger.io) and the Korean exchange CoinLink have opened gateways to trading Karma (KRM) to meet popular demand.

Adding to the token sale energy, already in its early hours, KRM has achieved a total of more than 10 million USD equivalent in transacted trading volume. Built on top of BitShares Graphene technology based blockchain, KRM tokens allow private parties from all over the world to lend to entrepreneurs directly bypassing any intermediaries, including banks.

The Karma token sale began on November 27th with a hard cap of $10M USD and a total of 1.275 billion KRM tokens on offer. The OpenLedger backed project easily met its fundraising goals by December.

Ronny Boesing, CEO of OpenLedger said, “As their PR & Marketing partner during their token sale, and with a functional blockchain presented only a few weeks after the closing of their ICO, one has to say this ICO has delivered as promised and I am personally looking forward to seeing how this project will further evolve in future.”
