blog.request.networkHoly ****!!! Even saying the team underpromises and overdelivers is an understatement. This is more impressing and promising then the upcoming mainnet launch this week, to me. Amazing news!!! Are there any other coins that have a partnership with the big 4?
Imagine the amount of additional knowledge (legal, technical, compliancy, etc.) flowing into this project, additional to the enormous potential new market (PwC customers) they now have access to.

VeChain also has PwC, and it’s helped them attract a ton of other partnerships. I think this will be amazing for REQ’s long-term growth potential. Plus, a bunch of people here are in relatively cheap, so huge gains are in sight.

Ready for that "world's biggest transfer of wealth" everyone's been talking about?

Well, the roadmap is split into quarters and Q1 ends this month. So yes, the main net is scheduled to be out by the end of this month.

Yep REQ's software finally releases this week for development teams to develop upon.

Awesome news. This is really huge!

Damn thats HUGE.

Any idea how PwC will deploy the Request Network in terms of funneling some tokens into the fire? Still trying to get my head around this partnership.
10
Build their own infrastructure and API around it and then selling it as as a solution that can be implemented for key use cases in their consulting practice.
13
There we go. That makes some sense. I’ll go ahead and state the obvious, but that first token getting burned in a real world use case is going to be a huge deal.
10
Earth shattering. PwC is in position to sell, implement, and operate the architecture between business partners.

I think no one has a clue at this point, way too early.

UNDERPROMISE OVERDELIVER

WHAT?

HE SAID UNDERPROMISE OVERDELIVER

WHAAAT?

This is actually really big news compared to the things that pushed it to 1 USD in dec.
36
what news pushed it to $1 ?
2
Nothing, just shilling and a bull market

Amazing as always guys! Absolutely massive step for not only Request but crypto adoption as a whole. Congratulations to the team, absolutely unbelievable - just goes to show the calibre of the team / project with PwC France partnering.
35
gr8 news, u guys are gonna lead France on blockchain tech adoption !
33
This is what a lot of people were waiting for. A way for request to start making itself known and get some real world adoption. I am quite happy they are taking this approach and using a well established brand like price waterhouse cooper to go ahead towards adoption and real world solutions.
I honestly didn't know what to expect as a collaboration partner (thought it might be something to increase publicity/adoption) but this makes me happy for sure.

PwC
One of the Big Four?
Lambo tonight boys
31
Can you explain what is PwC? Who are the big four?
4
The big four are the four largest accountancy companies in the world.
7
Oh Wow.
3
They're not just accountancy either, they're everything business related and can help you with restructuring, mergers and acquisitions, technology consultancy, business consultancy, etc. The big 4 are genuinely massive companies that assist businesses all around the world. And PWC is the biggest. You couldn't ask for a better partnership while your company is still in its infancy.

This is also the firm that handles all of the envelopes for the Academy Awards.

Amazing!
Req is really all about under promising and over delivering!
24
This is better than I expected actually. Really exciting for REQ's future.
24
This is huge because this was a bottleneck issue for REQ if they could get (huge) tax etc. firms onboard. Now that Pwc France is onboard I have no doubt that the future is very good for Req.
Also: complimtents on the team for underpromising and overdeliver every goddamn time !
22
HOLY SHIT. A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO I SAID THAT IT WOULD BE AMAZING IF REQ PARTNERED WITH ONE OF THE BIG 4. HERE IT IS.
21
"hello yes this is crypto god lava233"

Huge! WP Request!
20
The FOMO is real.
15
Wtf they deleted thisnof r/cryptocurrency
15
Yes, part of their new rules. https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/85ow78/three_new_rule_changes_on_rcryptocurrency/ There needs to be an announcement from PwC France or they'll just delete any threads about it.
Edit Is this bullshit? Maybe. Lots of fake partnerships get posted and they don't want to advertise those, on the other hand, their sub gained value by being a general news source about cryptocurrencies projects, it no longer has that value. It wouldn't shock me to see another sub take over their role.
17
Will there be such an announcement tho?
7
No idea. They certainly will not make an announcement because a subreddit thinks they should.
The partnership has been formally announced by the Request Foundation. The announcement was agreed on by both parties, so it has been announced. There isn't much cause for PwC to do their own separate announcement.
7
But has it really been agreed on by both parties? I think that's what the crypto subreddit is saying.
3
Phenomenal news, the Request team did very well make it happen and then to sit on this. I remember a report posted here not too long ago that mentioned the fact the Big 4 wouldn't want to involve themselves with REQ. One more box ticked.
14
Who else has partnership with PWC ? I swear I heard someone partner up with them before.
12
Ven with PwC China!
18
WTC or VEN, with PwC China if i correctly recall...

Buckle up boys, we're headed for Mars!

No we're not! At least not where I'm looking!

I literally just bought more REQ 5mins before this was announced. Holy shit.
And I had just dumped a few coins 5 mins before the news! :(
Balance in the universe
how much of a pump do you guys think this will give REQ today?
Hoping it reaches the next resistance level around 3600 satoshi, then the inverse head and shoulder target around 4000. BTC will probably screw it up though.
I hope BTC holds up..
And it just dropped 🙈
hahahhahahahahhhahahah
It will most likely heavily depend what BTC is doing today but I think REQ/USD will hover between 0.3 - 0.35 today.
Lol
Lol (update: 23 cents)
None
You can't go by that all good news spikes the price short term. The whole Market is down. Will continue to be down in the short term. Until the big money gets in we are just treading water. Req chart looks terrible. Looks like its on life support. I wouldnt buy more until the whole market is going up.

Damn, I guess we better sell and buy into all the other accountancy related cryptocurrency projects partnered with a big four accountancy firm.
Name checks out.
