Title: Altcoins in healthcare
Post by: PremiumCodeX on March 02, 2017, 08:27:11 PM
I am working on a new project, which is supposed to demonstrate how innovative altcoin platforms could improve our healthcare.

This is a research for an Uni-level competition. The competition is among students.
Furthermore, this project could grow up to be a full degree project. So, I am looking for serious solutions only.

What altcoin platforms have any relevant feature? What is your recommendation?

Ethereum hands down. It's the best smart contract platform.

I read Bitswift's thread, but I did not find any specific reason how it could help our healthcare. What did you mean when suggesting this project?

Ethereum hands down. It's the best smart contract platform.

Ethereum is a modern approach and I like that. I, personally, am interested in development with Ethereum Virtual Machine. The question is how "trusted" it could become to use in such a sensitive area as healthcare?

I think it's imperative to migrate blockchain technology into the healthcare system. I read an article a few months back that factom had something in beta.

Yes, I have hypothesis: healthcare ICO is easiest way to find 1000x profits

Reason #1: Healthcare is multi-trillion dollar industry that not touched yet by ICO

Reason #2: very easy to research since not many projects in healthcare. I spent many hours to research ICOs and too many to read about. I choose to research only healthcare because less competition and guaranteed massive profits.

So far I only see 4 ICO - 1) Patientory 2) Bowhead Health 3) Medibond -> already finished. I watch the development very closely to see if I should buy. So far not convinced.

4) Medcredits is new future ICO which I research now. Team has many real doctors and good plan to use telemedicine. I think very different from other 3. I watch it very closely as ICO will be announced soon.

My background is computer science. Please if community helps we will find ICO that makes huge profits. Opinions on Medcredits please?

Yes factom can secure any data and also healthcare data. I think factom better than other small projects like patientory which try to secure only healthcare data. Factom can secure any data. Healthcare project only need to partner and it have secure data service already available.
