Title: [2014-09-04] DigitalTangible Launches Crypto 2.0-Powered Gold and Bitcoin Market Post by: cescan on September 04, 2014, 03:09:44 AM http://www.coindesk.com/digitaltangible-launches-crypto-2-0-powered-gold-bitcoin-market/
While existing services allow bitcoin users to buy gold with bitcoin, DigitalTangible offers a novel innovation for the market, using an underlying crypto 2.0 protocol that issues tokens representing physical gold and attaches them to bitcoin addresses, thereby allowing traders to seamlessly move between bitcoin and gold. Speaking to CoinDesk, DigitalTangible founder Taariq Lewis framed his service as one that will better cater to the needs of bitcoin’s existing gold enthusiasts, while attracting members of the wider precious-metals community who may have yet to participate in digital currency markets. |
