London, January 7, 2020 – Nexo, the world’s leading crypto lender, is pleased to announce that it has now taken the important next step in expanding its ever-growing service by adding EOS to the list of accepted collateral for its signature Instant Crypto Credit Lines.

- By accepting EOS Nexo is expanding the utility of the EOS token, allowing holders to spend the value of their EOS without selling it

EOS is the native cryptocurrency of EOSIO, an open-source blockchain protocol built by Block.one. EOSIO’s industry-leading transaction speed, flexible utility and user-friendly infrastructure make it one of the significant, forward-thinking networks in the blockchain community.
Making EOS available for Nexo’s Instant Crypto Credit LinesTM allows ЕОS holders to borrow against their assets rather than selling them when they need access to liquidity, thus greatly increasing the utility features of the EOS token. It eases selling pressure and makes HODLing EOS easier in the long run. Moreover, Nexo’s Instant Crypto Credit Lines have the added benefit of being markedly tax-efficient.
“EOS is a particularly valuable cryptocurrency to work with on the Nexo platform as it is specifically designed to propel the adoption of crypto to new heights. At Nexo, we share in this common goal and are eager to watch the thriving of the EOS token and the consequent increase in Nexo’s addressable market, yet again expanding our quality crypto banking services amass worldwide.” – Antoni Trenchev, Co-Founder and Managing Partner of Nexo commented on the largely anticipated new feature to the Nexo platform.
