Lawnmower, the provider of blockchain asset news, market research, and investment analysis, has announced the launch of a new website, along with the release of iOS and Android apps to the public.
“We’re more bullish than ever on the bitcoin & blockchain space & wanted to expand on not only the information and investment tools we offer, but the audience we’re also able to reach”, Lawnmower founders Pieter Gorsira, Alex Sunnarborg And Patrick Archambeau said in a blog post. “Our new apps are available worldwide & we’ve completely eliminated our old sign-up process — you can check it out with no account required!”
With the app, users will be able to start learning about and track the price of bitcoin and newer blockchain assets like Ether & Ripple in seconds. The tracking of prices could be done right from the dashboard, which also displays market statistics like trading volume and market capitalizations, leading industry news, and more.
The blog post further said that investing is now a totally optional feature within the Lawnmower app. Investment tools & analytics are available for trading bitcoin, currently available only in the U.S. Users can buy & sell bitcoin using a bank account. Also, with Lawnmower’s partnership with Coinbase, users can start investing by easily upgrading their account by linking or creating a Coinbase account and linking a bank account of their choice. It intends to expand to additional geographies, assets, and payment methods.
In addition, Gorsira, Sunnarborg, and Archambeau also announced the release of a bunch of free new data and material on the website and in the app including the Lawnmower Blockchain Index (“LBI”) . The index tracks leading blockchain assets over time and automatically fluctuates and re-balances with the growth of the space. The founders said that the index has been created to represent and follow the top blockchain assets and automatically evolve in terms of composition and price as the industry develops.
“This update marks our first public steps towards expanding from an investment app for bitcoin & into a broader platform for the entire Blockchain Asset Class — now featuring a vast amount of information, data, news, & research on the space in addition to investment tools”, they added.
Founded in January of 2015, Lawnmower is a market research firm and investment platform where users can gain exposure to bitcoin and other blockchain assets.
