Title: [2015-04-02] CNBC: Tired of bitcoin? Try marijuana, manure-backed coin Post by: pitham1 on April 03, 2015, 07:43:43 AM Tired of bitcoin? Try marijuana, manure-backed coin
http://www.cnbc.com/id/102553811 Frustrated by bitcoin's booms and busts but not happy that Nixon took the U.S. off the gold standard? Incensed that central bankers continue to meddle with the macroeconomy? Good news: There are more concepts in the works to create currency standards backed by physical commodities than ever before, thanks to the creative crypto-thinkers behind the digital currency revolution. Anthem Vault plans to launch a gold-backed crypto-coin in May. The bet is that the coin—which is redeemable for 1 gram of gold at the market price—will be a big hit with investors who are tired of bitcoin's wild ways. There are a multitude of alts to satisfy everybody. :) |
