The procedure of setting up  contracts is quite imperfect. It all leads to disputes and endless changes to the project specifications that are nothing but common. Construction is a very complex process difficult to control. This sector became a pr...

Top 5 Crypto Fails of 2018

Image
[ad_1] 2018 has been rough for cryptocurrencies as a whole, with coins across the board seeing significant losses and general interest in the sphere gradually declining. However, there are a number of projects that have stuck out as performing particularly badly in the first quarter. Here are five of the biggest fails: 5. Verge (XVG) Wraith Protocol Launch While Verge’s major development, the Wraith Protocol, was slated to launch at the tail end of 2017, several delays pushed the actual release of the development into early January of this year. While supporters and speculators were highly anxious to see the actualities of Wraith, most were left disappointed with what was put forth by the developers. While Wraith does offer an interesting feature – optional privacy – the protocol’s attempt at providing anonymity is questionable at best. It was also revealed that some of Verge’s code base was copied from OpalCoin , a pet project of “Bitcoin Kid...

Bitcoin.Casino – Offering Extensive Bitcoin Casino Reviews

Image

4 Common Misconceptions Regarding Cryptocurrency

Image
[ad_1] The phenomenon known as cryptocurrency has attracted a lot of attention. Plenty of people are looking for up-to-date information regarding this new form of money. Unfortunately, this leads to a lot of misconceptions surrounding Bitcoin and altcoins. Let’s dispel a few of the more common ones. 4. Governments can Control Cryptocurrency Even though some governments may want people to think they control and regulate cryptocurrencies, that is far from the case, as cryptocurrency cannot be regulated or controlled by default. Companies providing solutions related to this new form of money, on the other hand, are subject to existing guidelines which apply to other financial service providers as well. The flow of money in the cryptocurrency world is not controlled by any central authority, nor will it ever be. 3. I need to buy a Whole Coin Even though it makes perfect sense for most people to buy one full Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, Monero, and whatnot, it is not necessar...

Bitcoin Price Struggles to Relciam $9,000 as Sour Market Sentiment Intensifies

Image
[ad_1] These days are not all that fun for most cryptocurrency enthusiasts. With all markets still in the deep red, it is evident the coming weekend will bring either a lot of relief or tons of joy. The way the Bitcoin price looks right now, we may very well see a small bounce, although reaching $10,000 seems virtually impossible. Never say never in the world of cryptocurrency, though. Bitcoin Price Struggle is Very Real It has become rather evident there is a lot more bearish pressure on the cryptocurrency markets than most people had anticipated. Even though the year 2018 has not been all that positive overall, it seems things are only growing worse as time progresses. More specifically, we have seen a total of two major price “crashes” already, and the third one is still in full effect as of right now. The volatile nature of cryptocurrencies is well-documented, but this latest dip took a lot of people by surprise. Even so, the current Bitcoin price is slightly higher com...

The newest cryptocurrency on the block, GINcoin, launches its turnkey masternode platform

Image
[ad_1] March 8, 2018: A new cryptocurrency , GINcoin, was launched in late February, aiming to provide cryptocurrency investors with an easy way of creating and deploying their own masternode(s) – regardless of their technical abilities. GIN creators are now launching the GIN platform, allowing investors worldwide to create and maintain their own masternode with a few easy clicks. Their ultimate goal is to democratise the way masternodes are created and, as an effect, prove crypto is here to stay – by making it more user-friendly than paper money. The future of MasterNode investing Currently, masternodes are a tough asset to invest in. They’re difficult to set up and (if you’re not a developer) require at least 1 partner with technical knowledge that has to be trusted with everyone’s money. GIN aims to change that by providing each investor having the money power with the technology required to launch their cryptocurrency investing. The masternode can be l...

RxEAL: a Real Solution to a Real Problem in Rental Markets

Image
[ad_1] RxEAL is a new blockchain solution for rental markets that provides a platform for safe security deposit storage. Using the opportunities offered by blockchain-based smart contract technology, RxEAL aims to reduce the high rate of disputes about security deposits that often arise at the end of a rental period.

Currently, the main focus of RxEAL is on real estate and automotive markets, but the solution can be applied to other rental business sectors as well.

What Is MoneroV?

Image
[ad_1] Forked versions of existing cryptocurrencies have become the new normal. There are multiple forks of Bitcoin in existence, although some altcoins also have their own “offspring”. Monero is about to join this illustrious list, as the MoneroV hard fork is scheduled to occur in about a week. Why Does MoneroV Exist? It is evident Monero has gotten a lot of attention due to its focus on anonymity. However, the MoneroV hard fork is a bit odd. The project positions itself as the truly anonymous, decentralized, and finite version of Monero. All existing Monero holders will become MoneroV owners when network block 1,529,8410 is discovered in a few days from now. Whether or not anyone even asked for this fork is a different matter altogether. Under the Hood Finding the differences between Monero and MoneroV is not all that easy. Since both currencies focus on anonymity and privacy, they share a lot of similarities. However, MoneroV claims to offer lower transacti...

Image
[ad_1] Ripple has made a lot of positive waves in the financial sector as of late. The company has embarked on an interesting mission to streamline cross-border payments and revamp the entire banking industry. With a new Ripple-powered mobile app to launch in Japan, things are headed in an intriguing direction. The Ripple Mobile App in Japan Most people who keep a close eye on Ripple know the company is making inroads in Asia as of right now. Its technology is of great interest to a lot of banks and financial service providers in the region, especially in Japan.

That situation will come to change very soon, thanks to a new Japanese mobile app. Known as MoneyTap, this application is powered by Ripple’s blockchain technology.

Grayscale Investments Announces Four New Cryptocurrency Investment Trusts

Image
[ad_1] Exposing more people to the cryptocurrency ecosystem is an ongoing challenge for all companies. So far, the general public has seemingly cooled off on cryptocurrencies ever since their prices started to dip earlier this year. Grayscale Investments will try to make a positive impact in this regard. The company announced four new investment trusts meant to bring cryptocurrency to the masses. Grayscale Investments Unveils Bold Plans No one will deny that  Grayscale Investments is attempting to become a household name in the world of cryptocurrency investing. It was one of the first big firms to launch a Bitcoin investment trust, which exposes investors around the world to the Bitcoin price through a traditional investment vehicle. Later, the company launched an Ethereum Classic investment trust as well. That choice has always been considered to be rather controversial, yet it seems to have worked out quite well for the company. Over time, it has become evident that a...
