Silence before the storm... 🤫 🚀 Trading of $ML will commence on Gate.io TODAY at 12 PM CET. As we prepare for trading to open in just over 10 mins, we have taken the decision to pause messaging within our communities for the next couple of hours. This is to maximise our listing exposure, giving space to traders without allowing for social influence in our channels and to combat scammers coming into our community and negatively affecting the price. Please stay patient during this time, and we look forward to hearing from you soon! Thank you, The Mintlayer Team

📣 Listing Update 📣 Hello Mintlayers, After careful deliberation with our team and advisors, we have decided to postpone trading of $ML on Gate.io for an additional 24 hours. We intend to maximise our listing exposure and have decided to wait for the Arbitrum airdrop to conclude before opening trading. Trading of $ML will commence on Gate.io from March 24, 2023 at 12PM CET. Thank you, The Mintlayer Team
