I've had my eye on Emercoin since the 1st of the year (2016). I downloaded their wallet/node over a month ago. <
http://emercoin.com/#download >. I like it. Simple, straightforward. Relatively short Sync Time.
https://coinwallet.co/ is also another online wallet.
However, It was too difficult trying to find an Emercoin Exchange so it sat empty and unfunded. Until I saw it today on
https://shapeshift.io/ Here's some general facts:
- It's in the same coin utility space as Maidsafe, Stellar etc, but I think it may have more long term staying power, actual market penetration potential. Maybe.
- http://emercoin.com/community has the basic info, exchanges, mining info, tech details, etc.
- THE PRIMARY NEWS is that its partnered with Microsoft in the Azure Baas Cloud, and has joined Crypto's OpenLedger project.
- as I write price is 21 cents, and there are 37 million coins (about 8% of what Maidsafe has)
- its in the Top 13 Market Cap Coins, and this is without really having much exchange/wallet exposure up until now. I think that the main thing holding it back so far has been lack of having a decent exchange / easy availability. Shapeshift addition should get it some action. It got mine.
This is another one of my gut feelings as a long term survivor, and I could be totally wrong. Worst case is I think it will "trade profitably" for a while. So anyway, figured this was worthy to throw out there on its own thread, with the news of it's addition to Shapeshift.
Love to see some intelligent feedback, market making news, etc posted here.
DISCLAIMER: Yeah, I bought some. Put about 5% of portfolio in. Took it out of my bitcoin (deadcoin) share.
PS... Don't take my word. Do your own due diligence. I'm just throwing it out based on the news it has been added to Shapeshift.No speculation actually needed..
Partnering with Microsoft is only only the beginning
Which in turn will increase Exposure and awareness
For EMC.
let alone EMC has the potential to increase internet security amongst an arsenal of innovation rolling out later this year in the azure cloud.
with 37m coin supply.. yeah now its only a matter of
When the value will spike..
The writing is on the wall..
