nOS: A Decentralized Browser Powered By Blockchain!

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/nos
Type: NEP-5 Token
Price: $0.066 (at time of writing)
Market Cap: $3,770,314 USD 
Circulating Supply: 57,125,982 million
Total supply: 375 million
-Decentralized internet client with Dapp integration.
-Virtual OS for the smart economy.
-Features built-in NEO/NEP-5 wallet.
-Will also feature a built-in DeX (Decentralized exchange.)
-Is not yet listed on the most popular exchanges.
-Working product already released before even being launched on exchanges.

nOS (or NOS) is a project built on the NEO blockchain with decentralization at it's core. Created by many developers from The City of Zion, based on the idea that people that people should be able to freely browse the web, without worrying about what data is being scraped from them along the way. The nOS client achieves this by allowing you to access Dapps as if they were web pages, using the .Neo extension. The nOS Browser functions as a web browser, with the added benefit that it integrates with the nOS Protocol, a blockchain-powered web protocol that facilitates secure and open accessibility of nOS Dapps. The client also features a user-friendly Dapp discovery platform (or "App Store") where rankings are decided in a decentralized manner. On top of this, the nOS client has a built in NEO wallet, and will soon feature it's own fully fledged Decentralized Exchange built right in. These features are all possible due to the nOS utility token. The nOS Utility Token employs various staking and reward utilities which are intended for developers who wish to deploy and maintain Dapps on nOS, as well as for end users who wish to practice decentralized governance.

**If you are interested in $NOS I recommend using Switcheo exchange to purchase it. It is a DeX, which means there is no need to create an account. Also as of the time of writing, NOS is trading at about 30% cheaper than on Hotbit, the other exchange it is currently listed on. I will post a quick step-by-step at the bottom of this page on how to make a purchase on a DeX if you never have before.**

"Here are some reasons why I think nOS might be huge in the future:
  • It's a platform that offers a one stop shop for all things decentralized and crypto.
  • Individual developers are free to develop Dapps for the OS, as it is open source and encouraged. More Dapps in a single place means more adoption.
  • NOS recently struck a partnership with DataAcess Worldwide, which has developed simplified framework applications for companies like Cerner Corp, Datatech, and Coca Cola Denmark. This partnership will allow the facilitation of the creation of a Dapp library to bring more users in.
  • The inclusion of a DeX and a wallet into the platform makes it easier and less of a hassle for users to adopt.
  • It's being developed on the NEO block chain, which has made many improvements to their protocol, allowing projects like these to be able to work efficiently.
  • It is only on a few small exchanges, and thus has not gotten proper liquidity and exposure. Once it's listed on a larger exchange, more traders will surely take notice to the tech being demonstrated here.

Matt Huggins: Lead Developer. Also Maintains Neon Wallet. Developer at City of Zion.

Jeroen Peeters: Developer/Project Manager. Front End Consultant at Evance. Creator of Neoblog.

Maurice Dalderup: Full Stack Developer. Blockchain consultant at Trase. Creator of Neoblog.

Fabricio Rosa Marques: Design contributor. Lead designer at Pitch. Designer at fournova.

Nikolaj Kuntner: Research Contributor. Developer at City of Zion. Software Enginerr at DAQRI.


Overall, nOS seems to have something really good to offer users, a good team to back it up, and has yet to gain proper exposure in the market. I believe that NOS is at a cheap price at current levels, and as they continue to develop the platform the price will reflect that work.

How to Purchase NOS on Switcheo Decentralized Exchange

1. download NEO desktop wallet. https://neonwallet.com/ 2. once you open the program and create the wallet, go to settings>backup wallet and save the wallet backup. 3. go to https://switcheo.exchange/markets/NOS_NEO 4. Register (only needs an email address). 5. Go to connect wallet, and then import the .json file that you exported. This will autoconnect your wallet to the exchange. 6. Buy NEO, then send it to your desktop wallet (The transfer took me less than 2 minutes NEO is fast). 7. In switcheo, go to the wallet you connected and deposit NEO into the exchange. 8. Purchase NOS. 9. In Switcheo, go back to 'your wallet' and withdraw NOS back to your desktop wallet (Or keep it on the exchange if you have 2fa enabled, though this is Not recommended).

$DOCK Dock.io: The Crypto LinkedIn killer?

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dock/
Type: ERC20 Token
Price: $0.11 (at time of writing)
Market Cap: Estimated $33,000,000 USD
Circulating Supply: Undetermined currently
Total supply: 1 Billion

-Encourages data exchange between platforms.
-Allows for synchronized user information across user platforms, while incentivizing platforms to keep this information synchronized. 
-Users have full ownership of where and how their data is used.
-Linkedln "Disruptor"
-Coin Burn implemented through use of the token by platforms.
-Currently only on Kucoin, meaning it's fairly undiscovered

The dock.io protocol is a special purpose decentralized data exchange protocol. This protocol is intended to incentivize the exchange of work experience, reviews and professional connections, and can be expanded to include any type of shareable data. In addition, the tokens serve as the proposal and voting utility to guide the evolution of development and changes to the dock.io protocol. All token holders can contribute proposals and vote on changes and updates they’d like to see implemented. Applications receive tokens for data exchange. Users will have absolute control over their data through the use of a hosted third party service.



The dock.io protocol is an open network revolutionizing how apps access user data and communicate with one another. Basically think of it as a giant "sync" button for all of your professional and personal profiles. This is excellent for those who have multiple professional profiles, but the uses can extend to those that have several social media profiles and want to make sure information is accurate across the board. 


The biggest get for this is for big corporations. They will be able to have up to date employee records, vendor records, etc, all hosted on a secure blockchain. This information can then be synced with other corporations without the use of databases. Everything stays up to date, secure, and is cheaper for the companies too!


Platforms that implement this protocol are incentivized with Dock tokens anytime a user creates new data to share via the protocol. These platforms then use tokens when users want to access data via the protocol.


Now where LinkedIn is focused primarily on professional profiles, Dock has the advantage of being an open protocol. This great increases it's use case, while also bring value to platforms that adopt this protocol.


The Dev team does not seem to be AAA list, but we do see many characters who were previously from Shortlist, Branded, Outsource, The Muse, and more. This definitely seems like a competent group of developers, and seem more than capable to handle this type of project.




Dock already has a large base of users, several valid use cases, a good system to bring aboard more partners, and a competent team to bring it all together. I won't say that this will be a multi dollar token someday, but it does have more to offer than other projects at this low of a market cap. I personally believe that DOCK is currently undervalued.

$DRGN DragonChain: Crypto's next sleeping giant?

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dragonchain/#charts
Type: ERC20 Token
Price: $4.77 (at time of writing)
Market Cap: $1,137,723,271 USD 
Circulating Supply: 238.4 million
Total supply: 433.5 million
-Scalable serverless platform 
-Built with every major coding language in mind.
-Access to "incubated" projects and smart contracts.
-Built by Disney.
-Is not yet listed on the most popular exchanges.
-The majority of it's infrastructure is ready to roll out and be utilized this year after 3 years of development. 

DRGN seems to be a competently built project with the idea of allowing independent projects to get exposure. It allows for said projects to grow in an ecosystem that supports the developers and allows them to unlock the full potential of their ideas. Plus the fact that there is a name like Disney behind it is sure to get people's attention. Luckily not many people are aware of this token. I believe we can still see exponential growth in this token over the course of 2018; especially if it gets listed on more popular exchanges. Buy DragonChain (DRGN) on Kucoin!
**If you are interested in $DRGN I recommend using Kucoin exchange to purchase it (Link above). Sign up takes 2 minutes, does not require ID verification, and its a very nice up and coming exchange. They have been listing a lot of cool projects on their exchange, so it is an excellent tool to have in your arsenal!**


"Here are some reasons why Dragon Chain might be huge in the future:
  • It’s a hybrid system that lets a business (enterprise or startup) have its own chain and achieve enterprise consensus in stages all the way to one or more public blockchains (eg BTC or ETH).
  • Developers may code smart contracts in Java, Python, Node, or C#. Platforms projects always do extremely well in the long run, look at STRATIS, LISK, NEO, NEM, XLM, etc.
  • The architecture allows a project to control exposure of sensitive business data and smart contract logic.
  • It doesn’t require the use of a currency (full trust at first layer).
  • It can support multiple currencies on one chain.
  • A project can start without full knowledge of its economy and monetize activity or assets late in the process.
  • The commercial platform utlizes serverless architecture to enable simple and powerful scaling.
  • There will be an incubator and marketplace for new projects.
  • Entire team based in Settle USA. Fortune 500 companies are more willing to invest in blockchain projects where they know it can't be shutdown on a whim by foreign government, e.g. NEO (China), etc and ability to get localized support if required since the team is USA based.
  • Team members and advisers receive their token disbursements over a two-year period. That signals a long-term commitment to the project and prevents insiders from dumping their supply and disappearing soon after the token sale.
  • The platform was built from scratch in Python at Disney."(1)

Held an impromptu live crypto chat on Youtube where I talked various cryptos i've been looking at.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xgavkcr-2xw

Always fun to get to just talk about crypto currencies and the communities behind them. This was spontaneous, and it was a first for me actually talking about cryptos live, so don't judge too harshly :P

Coins talked about: $POWR $OTN $MOD $REQ $VTC $BTCZ

Interesting Startup Cryptocurrency: BitcoinZ


I found this Crypto today, and began to do some DD as well as began mining it (Just in case it ever blows up :P )
So far has been a pleasant experience to set up the wallet and miner.
Nicely developed mining pool sites. It seems like there are some brains behind this from the Dev community.

Stats
Price= $0.0088 (124 Satoshis)
This particular coin has outright banned Asic miners.
Block size= 2mb every 2.5 mins. Similar to Bitcoin cash (8Mb every 10 minutes). This should allow for fast transactions.
Algorithm= Equihash
zk-SNARKs privacy
Decentralized development / All contributors are volunteers
21 billion coins total cap
Circulating Supply (at time of post)= 418,312,553 BTCZ

I think this Cryptocurrency may be an interesting one in the future if development occurs at the rate it has been since it's release. Considering its cheap price tag, it may be worth picking some up and storing it away. You never know where some of these startup projects end up!

Vertcoin Updates the One-Click Miner Making it even Easier to Use

https://btcmanager.com/vertcoin-updates-one-click-miner-making-even-easier-use/

Vertcoin is a digital currency that can be exchanged over the internet. The altcoin stays true to the original vision of cryptocurrency; a financial system owned by its users, the people’s coin. 

Vertcoin developers recently updated their 'One Click Miner', which allows someone to begin mining Vertcoin within minutes. 

Recently the Vertcoin team announced Ledger Nano S and Ledger Blue support. The team announced it is also developing the support for the Electrum TOR Wallet, as well as the integration of Lightning Network into the new wallet under development.

Vertcoin support was officially added to Decred’s Atomic Swap recently, which will enable on-chain swaps using the Atomic Swap Utility.

Is Vertcoin the next Litecoin?

Vertcoin (VTC) has been gain steam in the past month
Has the nicest chart in crypto land. Most charts when compared to BTC (Etherium, Litecoin, etc) over the year have gone down due to Bitcoin's meteoric rise. Vertcoin has actually been GOING UP when paired against Bitcoin (see screenshot below)


Vertcoin touts itself as a decentralized currency owned by its users.


Its mining algorhythm is ASIC-resistant, which is good news for GPU miners. 
Vertcoin is Segwit activated (not many coins are)
In Litecoin’s roadmap it is explicitly states that they are going to be working on cross chain atomic swaps with Vertcoin.
Transactions are super quick.
Has a large community that is growing daily.

Vertcoin seems to be showing that it is around for the long haul. I think this could be the next big coin on the market.
