“I was blown away by how smooth the process of buying XRP was on Uphold...”

“I just wanted to share a quick note and let you know that you guys do a really good job.”

NEO (previously called AntShares) was born in 2014 to support smart contracts and digital assets.

Applications on the NEO platform can be developed using standard programming languages - which means an extensive community of people can create with ease things like innovative smart contracts, distributed apps (dApps), and other new technologies.

Its two currencies, NEO and GAS, are used for transacting value and for the cost of transactions on the network. NEO has a total supply of 100 million tokens, with 70,539,000 NEO in circulation. 

The NEO blockchain can calculate up to 10,000 transactions per second - making it one of the fastest blockchain networks in existence.

The NEO price changes constantly (it's traded non-stop, around the world). Since 2016, the price of NEO has been as low as $0.54 (USD) and as high as $148.58 in January 2018. 

From January 2019 through to the time of writing (August 2020), the price of NEO has remained below $20 during the extended bear market. However, it would appear that the long-term trend may be turning bullish. 

With Uphold, you can buy digital currencies in just 11 clicks - even if you don’t have an account yet.

XRP is the cryptocurrency used by the RippleNET payment platform. Banks and other traditional financial institutions are known for their slow and expensive transactions; Ripple is trying to build a global settlement network, specifically designed to solve these problems and provide a cheaper, faster, and friction-free payments system.

Ripple describes RippleNET as "a decentralised global network of banks and payment providers using Ripple's distributed financial technology, which provides real-time messaging, clearing, and settlement of financial transactions."

XRP is the native token fuelling the XRP ledger open-source software. There’s a total market capitalization of 100 billion XRP.

XRP not only has one of the fastest confirmation times in the industry but also is capable of handling around 1,500 transactions per second.

Although the total supply is large in comparison with other digital assets, not all XRP is circulating in the market. The Ripple Labs company still holds a high percentage of the total supply, which is reserved for the ongoing funding and development of RippleNET. 

A big part of the XRP value proposition derives from the fact that a certain amount of XRP coins are burned after every transaction, making it deflationary by nature. Also, XRP requires a minimum of 20 XRP for every new wallet address assigned. 

Like many cryptocurrencies, XRP doesn’t require a whole-unit purchase. You can buy fractions of XRP in fact, a single XRP is divisible up to six decimal points, with 0.000001 being the smallest unit, known as a "drop". 

1 XRP is equivalent to 1,000,000 drops. 

A common view of cryptocurrencies is that they have no intrinsic value. 

While this may ring true compared with traditional financial assets, cryptocurrencies do in fact possess enormous intrinsic value. They represent the first time in history that anyone, virtually anywhere with a smartphone or laptop can move value worldwide without touching the legacy financial system. 

The price of XRP is ultimately determined by the law of the market supply and demand. Traders put up asking (selling) and bids (buying) orders and the order book matching process at exchanges creates the current XRP price chart, No surprise: it’s constantly changing.

With Uphold, you can buy digital currencies in just 11 clicks - even if you don’t have an account yet.

Cardano is a multi-layered blockchain run by a non-profit foundation made up of scientists from around the world, which includes the University of Edinburgh and the Institute of Technology in Tokyo, Japan.

Cardano markets itself as a third-generation blockchain platform. Bitcoin is first generation. Second generation is Ethereum, this scales capabilities which introduces smart contract concepts. Cardano is even more ambitious. 

Cardano has different layers to perform different functions. These include one for software applications (DApps). One for distributed computing, and, finally, one for financial transactions & settlements where Cardano’s currency ‘ADA’ is used to settle transactions.

Like many projects - Cardano wants to be the world’s top smart contract platform. Using a secure, proof-of-stake algorithm (named Ouroboros), Cardano eliminates the need for an energy-consuming protocol and claims to solve scalability issues. 

Cardano has a lofty goal of creating interoperability between its blockchain and the financial ecosystem - much like XRP & XLM.

How much Cardano (ADA) is worth on the open market?

Cardano has 25,927,070,538 ADA tokens on the market, with a total supply of 145,000,000,000.

What are the disadvantages of Cardano (ADA)

The competition:
Cardano isn’t the first ‘Ethereum killer’. EOS has made huge strides forward in scaling its blockchain and forming partnerships over the past year. Is Cardano unique enough to beat such strong competition? 

Transaction speed:
Ripple and Stellar Lumens can process more than 1,000 transactions per second (TPS) hence their partnerships with Santander & IBM respectively. Cardano only offers 257 transactions per second. 

Cardano infrastructure: 
The Proof of Stake algorithm is said to be flawed by a problem known as «nothing at stake». This issue highlights the problem that voting on a particular version of a proof of stake blockchain requires no resources, unlike the labor-intensive PoW model. Cardano is still a relatively unproven project that has not been tested in the way Ethereum has.

Third generation:
Cardano was specifically created to offer the same functionality as second-generation platforms but without the scaling issues. 

Privacy:
Many users favor privacy in the current climate, yet few cryptos provide it. Cardano does. The privacy of its transactions is guaranteed since it can be executed without metadata.

BAT is the cryptocurrency token used to reward viewers and publishers using the Brave Browser.

'Brave' is a new style of browser that protects a user's privacy by blocking ad trackers and malware. By removing ads in this way, while offering a simple interface and different search engine options, the Brave browser provides a faster, safer (and more rewarding) way to browse the internet.

In brief: faster load times while keeping your browsing history all your own.

The BAT or Basic Attention Token is a cryptocurrency that runs on the Ethereum blockchain and is the native token of the Brave Browser ecosystem. 

Advertisers use it to pay rewards to users for viewing ads and to publishers for creating quality content that attracts attention, measured in dwell time.

Why is Basic Attention Token (BAT) popular?

Basic Attention Token (BAT) is popular for many reasons:

As a user, you get paid in BAT for viewing ads while using the browser.

The Brave Browser has a built-in cryptocurrency wallet that securely stores your BAT.

You can set the frequency of how many ads are shown to you while using the browser. 

In addition, BAT is easily transferable, tradable, and could be a good investment given the multi-billion-dollar annual demand for online advertising.

BAT (Basic Attention Token) was launched in an ICO on May 29th, 2017, and sold out in just 30 seconds.

1.5 billion BAT tokens (worth US $35 million) changed hands, proving that there was a huge market for browsing the internet and advertising in new ways. 

What are the advantages of Basic Attention (BAT)

The potential for Brave to grow is enormous: People are looking for alternative browsers, privacy is in the zeitgeist and Brave offers a seamless, easy experience across all devices. More users, more use of BAT.

Other browsers monetise your information:
Browsers like Chrome track you and offer access to your browsing data. Brave pays you instead, with cryptocurrency you can convert to fiat or hold for the future. And it protects your data and history.

Brave Rewards + Uphold Wallet:
Uphold is helping to drive the adoption of BAT by integrating its wallet into the Brave browser so that BAT can be seamlessly converted into national currencies. Apart from the bull run of November 2017 to January 2018, the price of BAT has stayed between $0.50 and $0.10. With wider adoption of the Brave Browser, the demand for Basic Attention Tokens is likely to increase - driving the price up further.

What are the disadvantages of Basic Attention (BAT)

Other competitors could beat Brave:
While people are moving to Brave for privacy, popular browser Firefox already offers customizable privacy settings, and Tor offers completely private viewing.  

The BAT price isn't going up:
The price of Basic Attention Token has been stable for several years.

They've got massive competitors in browsers:
Google and Safari have over 80% of the browser market 
(approximately 65% and 16% respectively), and Brave has less than 1%.

Bitcoin Cash is a top 10 cryptocurrency, so an accurate price is available on many exchanges (like Uphold.com) as well as cryptocurrency price tracking websites.  

Bitcoin Cash was ‘hard forked’ from the Bitcoin core code in August 2017 by a group of cryptocurrency miners and enthusiasts who were concerned about how slow Bitcoin was progressing. 

Their new code design increased the size of the ‘blocks’ that form the blockchain from approximately 1MB per block to 8MB per block. This meant that more information could be processed at the same time, effectively speeding up the network. As Bitcoin Cash was given to holders of Bitcoin at the time of the fork (1:1), it has been incredibly popular with enthusiasts and investors alike. 

How is the price of Bitcoin Cash determined?

Just like Bitcoin, there are 21 million Bitcoin Cash in total and less than that in circulation. 

The price is determined by how much BCH people want to buy at any one time (Demand) vs how many are for sale (Supply). The price 'floats' between the prices that people are offering to buy BCH for (Bid ) and the price that BCH is offered for sale (Offer).

There are thousands of exchange computers around the world that calculate the price constantly. 

What the bears are saying about Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

Bitcoin Cash is still slow:
Bitcoin Cash is nearly 4x faster than Bitcoin (~25 transactions per second), but it’s still very slow when compared with XRP (at 1,500 TPS).  


Transactions require mining:
With increasing concerns about its environmental impacts, Bitcoin Cash's energy-intensive computing may come under scrutiny in the future.  

Bitcoin Cash is a fork of Bitcoin:
Bitcoin Cash was ‘hard forked’ from the Bitcoin code in 2017 and has since been ‘hard forked’ twice again. How many more times will it change?

What the bulls are saying about Bitcoin Cash (BCH)

Bitcoin Cash is a Top 5 cryptocurrency:
Modeled on the #1 cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, BCH is showing incredible popularity due to its namesake.

A long term hold:
With increasing difficulty in mining and limited supply, growth over the long term could be significant. 

It’s a better Bitcoin:
Bitcoin Cash was designed to be a faster version of Bitcoin and more in line with the original intent of Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Bitcoin is the world's first cryptocurrency. Conceptually, it stems from several decades of efforts to use cryptography as a basis for digital money. In the 13 years since its creation in 2009, Bitcoin has gone from fascinating novelty among computer programmers and technology wonks to a recognized-around-the-world asset class, one that is highly liquid and, as of August 2022, possessed a market capitalization of nearly $500 billion, or big enough to rank among the ten largest capitalized companies in the world.

Beginners in crypto investing are encouraged to try to understand Bitcoin by thinking of it as just another form of software protocol, such as "http," which routes web content from servers to browsers. Really deep dives can get complicated in a hurry. But it helps to go back to the beginning.

In early January 2008, some unknown person or persons using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto published a white paper, Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, detailing a blockchain-based network for sending and receiving transactions in a permissionless, trustless manner, beyond the oversight of any central authority.

A blockchain is a decentralized, public ledger digitally distributed across a network. The Bitcoin blockchain was built via open-source software, meaning anyone in the world can audit, contribute and improve its code and/or documentation.

Roughly one year after the release of the research paper, the network launched with the mining (by Satoshi Nakamoto) of rewards block #0, also known as the "genesis block," comprising 50 BTCs. Although not physically represented in any form, a small but monumental supply of digital money had been created. It was done so seemingly out of thin air, until, that is, one considers measurable computational contributions.

The Bitcoin blockchain, after recording that first transaction, kept on recording them, forming a chain of blocks, each block containing a cryptographic hash connecting with previous blocks, back to the genesis block.

Maintaining the blockchain falls on a global network of communicating nodes (computers running Bitcoin software). Each network node stores its own copy of the blockchain so as to independently verify the chain of ownership. Approximately every 10 minutes, a new block of transactions is added by "miners" to the chain, shared with all nodes, sans central oversight.

Mining refers to the systematic, synchronized processing of transactions and secure the network by way of distributed computing power expenditure. Becoming a Bitcoin miner requires specialized hardware and mining software that picks up transactions broadcast through the peer-to-peer network and, to confirm them, performs appropriate tasks that are often likened to solving next-to-impossible math problems but are more akin to trying to guess a randomly generated lottery ticket number out of an astronomical number of possibilities, using sophisticated algorithms. 

From a miner's perspective, the economics of Bitcoin – the equipment, energy-use and regulatory challenges – make for a complicated endeavor.

But from a user perspective, Bitcoin is “pretty much like cash for the Internet," said Bitcoin.org. "It can also be seen as the most prominent triple entry bookkeeping system in existence."

When was BTC created and how much was it worth?

Launched in 2009, BTC was initially worth zero and for several months swapped hands for fractions of one cent. In 2011, BTC's value crossed the $1 mark. In early 2017, BTC crossed the $1,000 mark. It has steadily climbed higher since then, despite some major pullbacks along the way.

The BTC price today is a byproduct of friction between two competing dynamics: supply and demand. BTC has a finite supply. Only 21 million BTC will ever exist.

Just like fiat currency, when demand for BTC increases, the price increases and vice versa.

On the supply side, BTC is "a unique asset in that its new supply schedule is completely immune to fluctuations in demand," River Financial said.

"When most goods, including fiat currency and gold, experience a rise in demand, producers react by increasing production and returning prices to an equilibrium,” River Financial said. “When demand for BTC rises, thanks to the difficulty adjustment, production of new BTC does not rise."

Just like physical cash, BTC worth owes to it representing a store of value that is commonly accepted.

As CryptoNews explained, "Bitcoin has value due to the same reason paper and digital cash do. It is used to transfer value and buy or sell things."

Yet, unlike dollars, whose value and legal status are enforced by the government, Bitcoin’s value comes from its code, infrastructure, adoption and scarcity.

As mentioned, ultimately, only 21 million BTC will exist. Unlike fiat currencies, Bitcoin’s inflation potential has a ceiling.

One often-cited security feature is the BTC blockchain's reliance on cryptography, used by a global, decentralized legion of volunteers signing the hashes that validate transactions.

"This system makes it so transactions are generally irreversible, and the data security of Bitcoin is strong," AVG said in a blog.

And because BTC is open-source and public (which may not necessarily seem all that safe) this "ledger transparency means that all the transactions are available to the public even if the people involved are anonymous, which makes it very difficult to cheat or scam the system," AVG said.

*It’s a better, digital version of gold, just as scarce but also highly divisible relative to the precious metal. Additionally, compared to physical gold held in bank vaults, BTC is much more transportable and harder to confiscate. "The world's top cryptocurrency has some unique characteristics that give it an edge over the precious metal," Motley Fool said. "BTC is just starting to scratch the surface as a legitimate store of value."

*Ubiquity. One of the biggest advantages of BTC is its accessibility/liquidity. It knows no borders.

*It can be an inflation hedge. History has shown numerous examples of centrally administered fiat currencies losing their value resulting in the loss of purchasing power, which is why BTC's creators capped its supply. Inflation has not been an issue in developed countries until only relatively recently, as of 2022. More time will be needed to see if inflation lingers and whether BTC's role as an inflation hedge is as viable as originally envisioned.

Independence: Bitcoin is decentralized. It’s not regulated by any particular government or central bank.

Partial anonymity: Although not entirely anonymous – a public address, for example, can be traced back to an IP address – BTC does allow for some degree of anonymity "in the sense that the components of Bitcoin, such as addresses, private and public keys and transactions, are all read in text strings, such as a public address, that in no way directly link to anyone’s personal identity,” as Bitcoin Magazine points out.

*Potential for high returns: Bitcoin was the best-performing asset of the past decade, according to data examined by SmartValor. The website looked at the 17 top-performing assets between 2011 and 2021. Since 2011, BTC’s cumulative gains have exceeded 20,000,000%. By comparison, U.S. large-cap stocks and the NASDAQ 100 recorded returns of $3,282 and 541%, respectively.

That it's way too volatile. While wild Bitcoin price fluctuations underscore the speculative nature of a relatively nascent digital currency market, the inherent volatility ultimately undermines BTC's role as a peer-to-peer version of electronic cash.

It’s overly complicated. After more than a decade, sending, receiving and securing large amounts of BTC remains a thorny proposition for non-tech-savvy users, although third-party platforms and ever-more-intuitive interfaces are alleviating this issue.

It’s slow and expensive. Bitcoin has unsolved scalability issues. And while Bitcoin's Lightning Network (LN) is a promising second layer (layer-2) network add-on enabling faster transactions done off-chain, LN "still has costs associated with it and can be susceptible to fraud or malicious attacks," according to Investopedia.

It’s murky. BTC holders have endured controversial incidents, from the Mt. Gox exchange implosion to the Silk Road dark web scandal, all while still wrestling with thorny debates (often on Twitter) ranging from the role of digital money (inflation hedge? speculative asset?) to the mystery of who actually created BTC in the first place. "Despite being in existence for more than 10 years," noted MIT Sloan's Betsy Vereckey, "there are still many open questions surrounding Bitcoin."

These include questions about the identities of its biggest investors ("whales") and intensifying scrutiny on the activities (energy use) of the miners underpinning the structure of the blockchain.

And BTC is seen as risky. "There is a probability of Bitcoin price going to zero," CoinGecko said. "This can happen if the project fails, a critical software bug is found, or there are newer more innovative digital currencies that would take its place."

DigiByte is a cryptocurrency focused on security, speed, and decentralization. It started back in 2013 and is one of the older crypto projects. 

Despite its age and ongoing development, Digibyte has kept below the radar compared with the hype-train of some competitors. 
Digibyte supporters reckon DGB is the ‘Sleeping giant of crypto.’ 

Digibyte is a faster, more secure version of Bitcoin and is only created (like Bitcoin) by mining. Its USP; a currency to be used online as a payment method, but also as a store of value. 

In May 2019, DigiByte launched DigiAssets, their scalable second-layer architecture, which sits on top of the DigiByte blockchain offering decentralized issuance of DApps and smart contracts.

Like most altcoins, Digibyte was created to fix the deficiencies of Bitcoin. The core issue for Digibyte is security. Virtually everything we now do is online – real-time information, data, finances etc. 

Although there have been countless attempts to improve online security, none has really succeeded

DigiByte aims to provide absolute security for data, information, and resources, as well as decentralization for users. Most cryptos are not wholly decentralized as they are controlled by individuals and private companies rather than the community. 

Digibyte’s open-source mining system is widely considered to be among the most decentralized in the business. Its latest mining algorithm, Odocrypt, rewrites itself every ten days. MultiShield followed real-time adjustment mechanism DigiShield, and both are regarded, in the cybersecurity industry, to be groundbreaking.

DGB is in plentiful supply. There are 13,465,726,269 DGB in circulating supply. The total supply is 21,000,000,000.

What the bears are saying about DigiByte (DGB)

Trouble at the top?
Back in May 2020, Jared Tate, the founder of Digibyte, stepped down from the day-to-day operations of the project, citing too many investors in the space abusing crypto and just using it as a mechanism to profit. 
This could worry investors, but Digibyte is still a project to watch in the short to medium term. 

Hype & volatility:
Sometimes it can be hard to get behind a project when the hype train is going full steam ahead. In early 2020, the token rose over 900% in price and then crashed into bear territory. Volatility of such magnitude scares off investors.

What the bulls are saying about DigiByte (DGB)

Security:
Security is a massive USP for Digibyte. This could be the key to attracting new partnerships to enable the project to scale. 

Community:
Remember, Digibyte has been around for a long time compared with the new kids on the block. With this comes a loyal fanatical following.
How did they get a community so loyal? Because their project is truly decentralized and their mission has always been to create a project centered on people and social values. 

Scalability:
Digibyte can support over 48 million transactions a day – that’s ten times the current transaction volume of the top 50 blockchains by market cap. There is a lot to be positive about if they can get adoption.
