2 undervalued Altcoins — in 200 words or less.
Missed the Bitcoin, Ethereum & Binance train that took off long ago? Fret not, below are 2 Altcoins you should consider investing in while the value is low.
What is it?
- Created by the co-founder of Mozilla & Firefox, and the inventor of Javascript
- Native token of the Brave Browser. Aims to improve security, speed & most importantly user data privacy
Why BAT?
- Sick of ads that track your every usage on social media & search engines? Brave Browser only shows you the ads you want to see and rewards you for it.
- Brave DEX launched announced (why is it significant?)
- Brave Native Search Engine, focused on privacy, announced
In summary, with the continued rise of cryptocurrency & lawsuits on corporations like Google for violations of privacy, BAT will potentially see a meteoric rise in the next 3–5 years to address the pressing issues of the common man. At the time of writing (15/3/2021, 9:26AM GMT+8), 1 BAT is USD$0.7734.
What is it?
- In simple terms, HOT is open-source, P2P and most importantly, decentralized.
- Uses a more energy efficient ledger system that is able to achieve offline capabilities vs Bitcoin’s PoS which is causing environmental concerns\
Why HOT?
- Design completely serverless applications that runs on devices of users — one user’s Holoport down? Look for another!
- Easily scalable, evolvable & flexible — build apps your own way, update it without any disruption & infrastructure is built on its own with every new user
To conclude, Holochain aims to do what Blockchain is unable to do — provide users with more use cases and most importantly, security. At the time of writing (15/3/2021, 9:26AM GMT+8), 1 HOT is USD$0.007848.
