Title: NXT, NEM and Qora
Post by: devphp on June 27, 2014, 08:47:42 AM
NXT - "Bitcoin", NEM - "Litecoin", Qora - "Dogecoin" of the Proof-of-Stake world :)

NEM is not a proof-of-stake coin, it is proof-of-importance.
And what about Blackcoin ?

As far as I understand, NEM is a Proof-of-Stake with a few modifications that developers call Proof-of-Importance, directed at artificially increasing velocity of money. Although these modifications need time to prove their efficiency, let's just call it PoS now to avoid confusion. You got to have something first, a stake, to participate in harvesting the blocks, right? So it's still a stake, not Proof of work.

I haven't tried Blackcoin. I meant pure 100% PoS cryptos with original source code. Isn't Blackcoin PoW/PoS based on Bitcoin code?

So, what is Kora then?

Ok ok, let me try my own answer:

Probably the best coin in the world.

Not really, I actually hold Dogecoin in high esteem, unlike many, higher than Litecoin.
I based my comparisons on the max cap of coins: NEM - Litecoin having 4x more than NXT - Bitcoin,
while Qora is sort of between Litecoin and Dogecoin, but you can come up with your own comparison. I didn't mean it as a joke.
