VI. Roadmap
VII. Author’s Review
I have been streaming with Current for weeks and actually love it for the wide range of media and the convenience it provides (you can now get the Current app, available in App store). The app’s interface was quite difficult to use at first as there was a lot going on so it takes time to get used to the way it works. Also, in my opinion, CRNC is a useful token and this is a potential ICO as the community is growing bigger and more diverse, which has encouraged me to participate in the upcoming ICO sale. I’m pretty sure it’s gonna be a big sold out !
