In addition, as of February 17, DREP is the 5th largest Ethereum-based gainer, according to Web3Charts.
Interestingly, unlike the pump of new coins or those just listed (usually at the start they rise sharply in price), DREP has been on the market since 2019. It is an Ethereum token used in the Drep ecosystem to pay for gas and transaction fees. Holders of these tokens also have the right to vote on various decisions on the DREP network. In the DREP DApp or the products jointly developed by DREP and its cooperative enterprises, these tokens are mainly used as pledged assets. It’s hard to tell specifically what drove DREP to such sharp growth.
DREP is building “connectors” and “toolkits” based on blockchain technology. The team uses the DREP Chain, DREP ID, DREP Reputation Protocol, and DREP SDK to create an open data ecosystem in the chain, so DApp developers could easily integrate multiple publicly available applications. This is useful for creating embedded wallets and asset trading platforms.
Drep tries to solve the ongoing problems of blockchain storage with its original Smart Pipeline concept and much more.
