I will trust no company that mines its own coin. If miners (the public) get to mine them, then whats the point? Might as well use bitcoin, the biggest computer hashing network ever known to man.

The reality is most of the sites are already using virtual currencies..! not reddit already use Reddit gold, apple just launched there Apple Pay.. Google wallet.. etc etc. I do realize what you are saying but its gonna be pointless for them to do so because I don't think its gonna add any value to the brand unless they launch a decentralized sys and that's not possible with any of them.

Corporations will never make decentralized cryptocurrency.
It's the same as imagine that Microsoft makes Windows OS open source.



IBM is going to fork ethereum when it's finished.

And IBM is already forking Bitcoin for "the internet of things".   They said they'll be forking both.  Exactly as I expected.

The whole point of pseudonymity will be lost using these currencies. I just hate it when I have to sign in with my microsoft/google/facebook/yahoo account for some unrelated services. For this reason, I will not these other virtual currencies. I am sure that there are a lot of people who think like me

I thought IBM just wants to use the blockchain technology.
