Electroneum features a gamified mining experience for users, which will kick off a crowd sale later this week.
Electroneum
The cryptocurrency industry is one of the most explosive and fastest growing in recent memory. In light of Bitcoin and various alt coins' recent surge, the industry is primed to welcome its newest entrant, Electroneum. The new cryptocurrency will focus on a more gamified mining experience, capable of disrupting the traditional status quo.
Finance Magnates sat down to speak with the currency's founder Richard Ells who touched on Electroneum's inception and subsequent framework and goals.
In your own words what is Electroneum in a nutshell?
Electroneum is a brand new cryptocurrency that is launching on November 1st, 2017 that is designed to appeal to mobile phone users. You can even ‘mine’ our cryptocurrency via our free app. We are launching a crowd sale on the 14th September to allow the wider community to get involved.
Tell me a little about yourself and how you started the Electroneum team.
I started a digital agency called SiteWizard Ltd in 1997 (it's still running today, with 20+ staff, but I don't spend much time there). That in turn led me into the world of social media where I started Retortal Ltd, which has grown to have over 100,000 users, and will soon have millions of users.
We've previously partnered with some of the biggest brands in the world such as Herbalife, Avon, Forever Living, Mary Kay and more. I've always focussed on delivering software with a great user interface experience that enables us to grow a huge audience.
What has always frustrated me is that every new cryptocurrency that launches along seems to be the same as the last. No radical shift has taken place. So, I came up with an idea to get cryptocurrency into mass adoption for the first time.
You say the first time, but people would argue that Bitcoin has already done that...
Actually, Bitcoin is knownby a pretty wide audience, however it's not used or owned by a very large audience. A recent study by Cambridge University suggests there are only around 3 million bitcoin users and holders. We aim for tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of users. It is worth remembering Pokemon Go garnered 90 million app users in just six months – and they didn't pay their users!
Have you secured anyone behind the Electroneum team that we have heard of?
Of course, we have a number of tech and finance superstars backing Electroneum but the most public one is Duncan Logan the CEO of Rocketspace who nurtured the likes of Uber, Spotify and Hootsuite. Duncan is publicly tweeting and posting about his intention to buy in to Electroneum as it is something entirely new.
Our blockchain emits coins to our mobile app users to bring a different utility to the blockchain. Electroneum full miners earn the most coins and that runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac computers. They bring the utility of blockchain administration and are rewarded with Electroneum coins. The mobile miners bring the utility of viral marketing to Electroneum and are awarded with a number (smaller) of Electroneum coins for doing so.
It's done in a way that encourages app usage. We've essentially gamified the mining experience, making it appeal to mobile computer gamers (there are over 2 billion of them).
Do you think cryptocurrencies will change the face of finance in the future?
It’s still very hard to tell – we are at the point in cryptocurrencies where airplanes were at the start of the Second World War. People underestimated their usefulness and power and almost ignored them.
Once the technology got the attention it deserved, however, people looked at it in an entirely different way and it changed literally everything. I can't predict the future, but blockchain and cryptocurrencies will be growing exponentially for some time to come.
Another analogy I use (and this might only work in the UK) is the battle between VHS and BETAMAX video players back in the 1980s. Whilst in the UK VHS "won" – where are they today? A museum at best!
We are all part of moving cryptocurrencies forward and each new player brings something exciting and dynamic to the table. Most people have been focusing on technology and features, we are focusing on market share and adoption.
How do you intend to bring micropayments to people without access to bank accounts?
Our app makes micropayments simple, and after we raise some funds during our token sale we can take that even further with contactless transfers and much more. However, the important thing is that these people have had android devices for ages - they just haven't used them for micropayments because they don't have anything to pay with.
If we can get some cryptocurrency into the hands of a community through mining, then they can start using as a means of exchange that never involves a bank. Previous cryptocurrencies have always started with a trip to the bank - or a powerful computer for mining - we're the first that doesn't need either.
How does mobile mining work on the Electroneum app?
The mobile app is centralized and runs off a twin algorithm that emits coins from the blockchain at approximately the same rate as the full miners based on a CPU benchmark of the phone. This allows the phone to run without getting hot and without using tons of power and bandwidth that previous attempts at phone mining have needed.
It is important to remember that they are not bringing blockchain utility, they are bringing a different utility - they are bringing on users at a ridiculously low CPA, and allowing Electroneum to have viral growth.
Do you have closing thoughts regarding Electroneum?
Because we've centralized part of Electroneum (the app based part) this also means we can evolve far more than other cryptocurrencies. Since nearly all cryptocurrencies are purely decentralized, once their code is launched it takes a hard fork to change anything.
This is still true of our blockchain model, but because our app is fluid and centralized, we can act very dynamically. We can evolve the app. For instance we are designing an app-based game that teaches people how cryptocurrency works and lets them slightly increase the hashing rate of the mining app by interacting with the game.
You don't have to play it to mine, but it's got features from some of the most addictive apps that have come before. We have all the benefits of a decentralized cryptocurrency with all the benefits of maintaining centralized control of our app.

In this conversation, we sit down with Drew Niv, CSO at ATFX Connect and one of the most influential figures in modern FX.
We speak about market structure, the institutional view on liquidity, and the sharp rise of prop trading, a sector Drew has been commenting on in recent months. Drew explains why he once dismissed prop trading, why his view changed, and what he now thinks the model means for brokers, clients and risk managers.
We explore subscription-fee dependency, the high reneging rate, and the long-term challenge: how brokers can build a more stable and honest version of the model. Drew also talks about the traffic advantage standalone prop firms have built and why brokers may still win in the long run if they take the right approach.

In this conversation, we speak with Aydin Bonabi, CEO and co-founder of Surveill, a firm focused on fraud detection and AI-driven compliance tools for financial institutions.
We start with Aydin’s view of the Summit and the challenges brokers face as fraud tactics grow more complex. He explains how firms can stay ahead through real-time signals, data patterns, and early-stage detection.
We also talk about AI training and why compliance teams often struggle to keep models accurate, fair, and aligned with regulatory expectations. Aydin breaks down what “good” AI training looks like inside a financial environment, including the importance of clean data, domain expertise, and human oversight.
He closes with a clear message: fraud is scaling, and so must the tools that stop it.

In this episode, Jonathan Fine sat down with Jas Shah, one of the most thoughtful voices in global fintech. Known for his work across advisory, product, stablecoins, and his widely read writing, Jas brings a rare combination of industry insight and plain-spoken clarity.
We talk about his first impression of the Summit, the projects that keep him busy today, and how they connect to the stablecoin panel he joined. Jas shares his view on the link between fintech, wealthtech and retail brokers, especially as firms like Revolut, eToro and Trading212 blur long-standing lines in the market.
We also explore what stablecoin adoption might look like for retail investment platforms, including a few product and UX angles that are not obvious at first glance.
To close, Jas explains how he thinks about writing, and how he approaches “shipping” pieces that spark debate across the industry.
